A bagel renaissance is boiling over in Los Angeles.

For years now, local bagel makers have been perfecting recipes and styles. While at first these bakers sought to replicate the nostalgia of New York- and Montreal-style bagels, regional styles have since emerged. Often, the toppings highlight seasonal produce, and the bagels themselves are airier, with crispy and chewy crusts. Some of the best bagel shops in L.A. are standing out by taking extra time to let their dough rise naturally.

It’s been five years since Arielle Skye and her husband Chris Moss opened Courage Bagels in a former panaderia in Virgil Village, but customers still line up daily, rain or shine. Now, the perennially popular shop is far from an outlier, and you can find noteworthy bagels in just about every L.A. neighborhood.

In Highland Park, Mustard’s Bagels pop-up is selling out of its 72-hour-fermented sourdough bagels — sold loose, in bulk or as open-faced sandwiches topped with house-cured Nova lox or miso-scallion schmear — nearly every weekend. Santa Monica bakery Jyan Isaac Bread supplies its bagels to numerous spots across the city, while next-door neighbor Layla Bagels expanded to a second Beverly Hills location within two years of its bricks-and-mortar launch. Iconic bagel shops from the East Coast and Bay Area have planted roots in Burbank and Los Feliz, eager to gain notice in our city’s now-competitive scene.

You can grab bulk bagels and pints of schmear for an affordable price from most of the shops featured on this list, but be prepared for bagel sandwiches topped with pastrami-seasoned lox, an ounce of caviar (yes, really) or honey-drizzled mandarinquat to be priced accordingly.

From Irvine to Cypress Park to Long Beach, here are 25 bagel shops for a taste of L.A.’s overflowing scene.
