Located just next to Marks & Spencer this place is such a relief to sit n relax after a marathon shopping trip. Great staff and awesomely relaxing environment with karak chai and amazing combination of local and international options makes it such a lovely spot in the FC before hitting on the gas pedal !!
Highly recommend it and please do try the pan cake, waffles, karak & irish coffee👌👍😊
Lovely coffee, superb value for money, good presentation. I gave a 4 only because instead of mint choco chip frappe we got had cooking mint called pudina in India. Was weird, stay away. But the staff was sweet enough to replace it. That apart this is a 5 star place.
This was a pleasant surprise for us when we stepped into the cafe. We've always passed the place and kids would always deter us due to their aversion to bagels, usually since it's always chewy.However, the grub turned out to be quite good. We tried Avocado bagel bkfst (4/5), Cajun bagel (4/5), Beef burger (2/5 there was a stale taste from the beef patty although it was fresh), Cajun Ciabatta (4/5) and Egg cheesy bacon (3/5). The wedges and salad that accompanied were very fresh and great on taste. Portions were decent size as well.
Some of the items shown in the display wasn't updated in the menu. So have a peek at the screen as well. Service was good and order didn't take too long.
Would definitely visit again.
Good breakfast spread,friendly staff Mera.
Soothing Ambience, professional and soft spoken staff, we tried chicken fillet Berger and chicken tikka sandwich which was very good in taste.
A very wide variety of options as far as Bagels are concerned. This place is highly recommended for those who love Bagels & the one I had ordered was the pesto chicken bagel. Really good taste & the potato wedges were the highlight of the dish. Their Bagel on Fire coffee was a fusion of Cinnamon, Chocolate & Chilly powder which surprisingly mixed really well. The bagels in my opinion could be a little softer. Other than that it was a good experience.
@bagelbaruae Bagels sandwich,chocolate fudge and irish coffee was an awesome combination.irish coffee was spot on.cute ambience.located near to marks and spencers and not crowded on weekends.
Best place to order healthy breakfast. I loved it. It is jot over priced the delivery is quick the breakfast was refreshing the fruits were fresh i strongly recommend it
Love their bagels, the coffee and Frappuccino. Food is so fresh and nicely presented. Love the atmosphere. Good staff and great service. Good value for money.
Friendly service. Good value bagel meal. Generous filling and tasty options. A bargain with Zomato Gold, especially on the breakfast options.
Generally the place is good.
I had the hallomi bagel which was alright.
Also the pine forest salad, the pine portion was impressive and the mix of cheese abs rocca and pine was really great.
If you have a zomato gold tha you have a great offer awaiting for you , Go ahead and try the Burgers here which are really heavy and way too much enough for a single person.
Our first visit.. Tried all the veggie Irish bagels.. really nice and healthy. Service rocks.. they give u option of salad and wedges. The salad complements better . Do try it .. worth a visit again !!
Ordered the West Coast Bagel and Classic Club Bagel for breakfast. Both dishes were amazing along with the wedges and potato salad! Great start to the day!😄
Visited this outlet today to try out their Bagels. It’s a nice cozy cafe to enjoy some quick bites and coffee . Ordered a Veggie bagel and Chocolate Waffle . Veggie bagel was very well made and presented , since I had a option of selecting a side dish of my choice i ordered the potato salad which was equally fresh too . The waffle was ok since I was expecting the sauce to be a fresh chocolate sauce and not Nutella . However I liked the vanilla ice cream that was served with the waffles and ordered one more scoop of it :)
Visited this place for 3 reasons.
1. To fuel up before a longish shopping day
2. Wanted a place that would provide something filling since lunch was going to be delayed/ skipped
3. To unlock another Zomato Gold joint
Ordered the veggie bagel, full breakfast and a white chocolate frappaccino
Ambience: N/A... its in a mall. But well done with pictures from Irish locales.
Taste: 4/5
Value for money: 4/5
Service: 4/5
Left the place happy and full. Cheers.
I was on a no carb diet. I accidentally try you salad. Its fulfilling and taste good. Even i try your food its good.
Most important, i like the calories count in your menu book. Weldone keep it up.
For a quick and filling lunch, I sure find the Bagel Bar to be 'THE spot' if you are at DFC Mall.
The ambience is pleasant with black colour-schemed interiors and if you are looking for a quiet cozy spot at the corner, you'll get it!
The staff are really friendly and I sure got my order on time. I had a Chicken Fillet Bagel with wedges, and it was also accompanied by a vegetable soup. All of it was really good!
Considering it's right in front of the enterance of the mall, i may go right to the Bagel Bar everytime I visit DFC mall. Lol.
Amazing salads - great variety! The staff is very polite, good weekday combos too! The mashed potato was well dressed, salad’s pesto sauce was great.
The salads and sandwiches what we ordered were so tasty and fresh that I have no words to describe its delicious taste. The coffee was good and the juice was actually fresh. The food was quite presentable and delicious. The service was quick and good.
Amazing service! Staff are super nice! They called and apologized for a 10 min delay for my delivery and sent me some extra food! Food is delicious too!!! Prices are great! Highly recommend!
I visited this place for a lunch snack. Little did I know it was cute little nook with friendly staff and good options to dine in. Loved the presentation of the bagel with potato fries. Never expected the soup but that was part of the dish we had ordered. If you want a quiet corner this is it.. Will visit for other options. 😀
Love this place for soft tasty bagel sandwiches...even their coffees... shakes are yumm... one of the most frequently visited places each time I am in festival city for my shopping is this cafe
Great bagels and salads. The cajun chicken and pesto chicken salads are my favorite. They make for great lunches. The halloumi bagel is fantastic too. I've tried their baked potatoes and I was unfortunately a little disappointed. It was dry and pasty and honestly a little hard to swallow. Needed a lot of water to wash it down.
Excellent bagels with a good menu at very good prices. I like that the food is not fat and nicely presented. I highly recommend this place for a quick tasty lunch/dinner
Decent place giving Bagels a twist by filling them with some real good meats and veges. I opted for the chicken philly while my wife settled for the veggie one. The taste was good and palate friendly. The ambience is quite good, pricing slightly high and the serice is good.
I had a small bite for lunch. The place is located inside Festival City mall, next to main entrance of Mark & Spencer! AmaZing discovery!
They have bagels and salads and cool deals!
I had The Specialist Bagel that comes with turkey bacon, gouda cheese, lettuce and a sweet sauce, the bagel was jalapeño flavor with cheese on top! Was amazing! Perfectly prepared and served with a big portions of side salad with veggies ( you cam choose potato salad or potato wedges too). I paid only 34aed for a full greal meal! Service was correct and polite. Cool place!
So we went here to enjoy some pancakes and bagels. The food is good and I am totally in love with the Irish coffee they serve.
Service is good too.
One important thing that needs to be corrected is the recent menu needs to be uploaded on Zomato. The Menu here is old and has avg 10-15 DHs less rate per item. Next thing is once you’re here you’re given coupons to be availed in next visit which shows you you’ll be spending so much more on the current visit.
Thirdly the #etisalatsmiles is valid only on bagels not on any other stuff. I liked the idea of halloumi bagel and the variety of bagels they’ve . Will try it on my next visit coz now I have coupons ;)
Also, if you’re someone who loves pancakes with loads of maple syrup, ask beforehand for more syrupy else the syrup has an additional cost.

My review for The Bagel Bar – This is such a wonderful café filled with many goodies to eat and drink. The portion sizes here for the food are huge which was wonderful as most café shops in town only have snack sized portions.
When my meal came to the table, I was actually shocked. The baked potato was the biggest potato I’ve seen in my life, and they were generous with the fillings! I am on a diet, so I was hoping that it would be smaller, but a baked potato is healthier nonetheless, so I did not feel too guilty. The potato was cooked throughout, and the beans were delicious.
This café deserves a rating of 5/5.
I ordered the baked potato with beans filling for 22DHS.
This pricing of the items served here was so worth it for the large portion sizes.
The service that I received here was excellent with very attentive staff members. I was glad to see how fast the food came out of the kitchen.
The ambience of the cafe was warm and inviting. The cafe was clean and had comfortable seating to enjoy a break out of your long day. Located in the Dubai Festival City mall, it was a great place for me to stop by to enjoy a meal after my day of shopping.
Been for breakfast on a weekend . Opted for full breakfast and waffles with chocolate syrup. Full breakfast was served with Americano, orange juice, hash brown, sausages, bacon, toast , scrambled eggs and beans. The breakfast was filling and everything was fresh and delicious. Waffle was served with ice cream and chocolate syrup was pretty good . Courteous staff, good food and value for money
Nice cafe with some options available. I did breakfast there, & i am totally satisfied. But little bit expensive. Staffs are friendly & welcoming.

Superb service ! Very polite and friendly staff .. we had the buy one get on free so it’s a value for money .. we ordered the beef burger and chicken bagel ... yumminess personified ... it’s a regular snacking place and it tells you your calories too .. love it !
Love for bagels!
One of my Fav places for a Salad.
They had one of the Best Lunch combos where you could Order any Salad from their Menu and you would get an freshly made Ice tea also along with it for just 25dhs. Unfortunately they had to take it down.
I have tried almost all the Salads and Bagels from them. And I love all of it. If your health conscious and are worried about your calorie intake, this is the right place for you as their Menu has the Calorie count for Each Bagel or Salad you order.
I tried the Cajun Salad once again. A salad tossed with Cucumber, lettuce, black olives, tomatoes and other vegetables which I’m not quite aware off. The Salad comes with a decent portion of Chicken Cajun which is cooked chicken which has this amazing Cajun flavor which goes well with anything. I would rate this Salad a 5/5 as it’s my all time favorite.
Also ordered an Orange Juice which was fresh and refreshing.
Overall Exp- 5/5
Food- 5/5
Ambience- 4.5/5
Staff- 4.5/5
Thank you for your service.

If you're a bagel fan, then look no further! The Bagel Bar is a bagel-fan's dream destination! With so many different bagels and bagel fillings to choose from, you will be very confused but very happy indeed!
For all the health cautious people, you will love The Bagel Bar because they have written exactly how many calories is each bagel. Therefore, you'll be able to easily control the calorie intake and not ruin your diet!
I tried a few of their bagels and I loved them all! I especially love their Salmon & Cream Cheese bagel; that one is pure heavenly!
Their service is great as well. The staff there are very friendly, attentive and welcoming! This would make a great place for a quick meal, regardless of the time of day! They have a great selection of breakfast items too!
Due to it's semi-hidden area (located just by Marks & Spencer) this makes for a great quite cafe for students or workers that need a cosy place to do their work over a nice cup of coffee!
Overall, I am a fan of The Bagel Bar. It's my go-to place for whenever I'm craving a delicious bagel!
Did breakfast with a bunch of friends yestrday.
The server was amazing. Paid so much attention to our orders and made sure everyone got exactly what they ordered (there were 6 of us and everyone ordered a different dish and a beverage).
Bagels were good. Though 'The Specialist' wasnt asss great as it sounded on the menu. The rest was 👌.
Great coffeee!
Only negative was that they were not able to split the bill between us so there was a lil confusion come payment time but doesnt take away any of the positives from a great breakfast overall.

I came here with a friend as we wanted to try bagels. So apparently The Bagel Bar had its beginnings in Dublin, Ireland. The decor is chic black with pictures of their headquarters in Dublin and of the different types of bagels all around their walls. Their walls are all framed in reflective glass, giving the entire cafe an interesting look and feel. They have also put up a huge "Allergen, Lifestyle & Energy Coding Key" which let's you know the various dietary codes and calorific-meal counters. Their menu too let's you know the calories for each of their food items (but surprisingly not for their dessert items 😅😅😅). This is what we ordered:
1) Chicken Fillet (AED 32) : A toasted sesame seed bagel with chicken fillet, onions, lettuce and a nice sauce called the specialist sauce. Had this with a side of potato wedges (Other sides options were salad or potato salad). We were able to redeem Etisalat Smiles coupon on this one.
2) The Specialist (AED 33): A cheese & jalapeno bagel with turkey bacon, gouda, red onions and lettuce drizzled with their specialist sauce. We had this one too with a side of potato wedges.
3) Coffee and Caramel Cheesecake (AED 23): Interesting combination of coffee and caramel flavours in this cheesecake.
4) Blueberry Cheesecake Muffin (AED 15): A nice blueberry muffin with a pat of cheese on the top.
Overall, a nice cozy cafe with decent food and good service. First time experience having bagels was nothing extraordinary and it felt like any other bun, albeit a bit different in terms of the texture (firm and a bit dry). Next time I might try a different flavoured bagel.
Haven't had a bagel sandwich in ages. This place is a good place to start! I tried the turkey bacon with veggies and jalapeño bagel bread. It's a good portion and team it up with some side salad and that is a good meal. I also tried the coffee caramel cheesecake and I must say it is yummm!! Usually cheesecakes at coffee houses are very sweet but the hint of coffee really makes it tasty.
I was too hungry to click pictures! Will be going back for sure!
Breakfast came with fork and knife but as there was yoghurt / granola in it, it would have been good to have come with a spoon as well.
The food is always good however the time it took was double what was stated. They did throw in a free cake though.
Bagel bar coffee house in dubai festival city has a lot of variety of bagel sandwiches, baked potatoes and salads. They have a very friendly staff. Me and my friends had a great experience here. We choose the chicken Caesar salad which is very tastely We love the mix of chicken and bacon on it. The chicken tikka with side salad is very amazing taste with mango chutney at a sauce. And I didn't forget chewy caramel frap jar and latte for my friend. I really love the combination of our food. We really enjoy and We are happy that we experience the bagel bar foods.
Extraordinary that a restaurant that has been around as long as Bagel Bar Coffee House can continue to maintain the exceptionally high standards in food and service that one continues to experience when visiting the restaurant.
Bagel Bar have the best bagels in town. The food is excellent. They serve salad, fresh juices and coffees too.I love the ambiance of the place. It makes you want to return every time. Most especially, i am really amazed on how their staff attentively treat all their customers. I will surely recommend this place to all my friends.
Taste was good but I received the food late and on the cold side.
I went there on a weekday for dinner. To be honest, I had never had bagels before but I was really wanting to try them. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of food and the presentation was on point. We ordered a turkey bagel and a Cajun chicken bagel along with Jacket potato. I simply loved the jacket potato there. The bagels were also good. For desserts, we ordered Macadamia Cookie, cheesecake muffin and a chocolate cake. On the whole, I really liked the variety of sandwiches and desserts that they have on their menu. They even have smoothies and milk shakes. We did try their milkshake and coffee and liked it too.
About last night! Bagels & Salad from @bagelbaruae
Made up for all that calories burned.
Cajun + Mexicana + Salad + Mint Choc Chip

So glad to see a place that’s dedicated to Bagels in Dubai since the last bagel I had was in NYC back in 2015. The Bagel Bar at the Dubai Festival City is more of a cafe that you can have a relaxing time at with your friends. FYI: They serve 11 varieties of Bagel!. A pretty comfortable ambiance with a lot of Bagel art on the walls. Full review at the link below!
This rating of 5.0 is for the previous times I have visited there...because when I had visited the cafe recently..like at 10:30 pm and they had already started cleaning the place when all the other cafes were not..they were cleaning only when they close..and one of the staff who served us was cleaning and then serving us and everyone else..she was also clearing the garbage can and then she served us our food...and there is a staff scarcity over there..there needs to be more staff..and the person who served us did not even pay heed to our order properly...we had told them to bring us waffles with the berries on the side and not put it on the top because we like to eat the berries separate and not on top of it but then they brought it the opposite and brought with the berries on top...
So in short, staff needs to have more hygiene measures and also should pay attention to what the person is ordering.
They have good variety of bagel sandwiches. I love their breakfast bagel. Cappuccino and karak are amazing. Pancake was average and their freshly baked muffins are a must try!

Situated next to mns , this place has sandwiches all day yeah breakfast all day .... have had their thripel chhese bagel ... I can say I had my first time bagel sandwich from here so I kind a loved it , bagel is a diff kind of flavour ful bun not that soft or very hard ....
Been twice for breakfast. I like it because breakfast is served all day. Food was quick the first time but delayed the second time (i ordered the salmon Benedict and i dont think the chef knew how to make it) service is always friendly.
we ordered full breakfast, and the quantity was really good
the coffee was nice with fresh juice tasted well. we bought cobone voucher, its worth the price.

In the mood for an authentic English breakfast?
The Bagel Bar Coffee House is my favorite place.
We ordered a Pancake Breakfast, priced at 32 Dhs. And a complete English Breakfast priced at 38 Dhs.
The pancakes tasted amazing. The maple syrup although not enough for me haha, tasted amazing as well!
The omelette lacked salt and the turkey bacon strips in my opinion were a bit cold.
But all in all, the pan cakes were what I was looking for an I wasn't disappointed.
The English breakfast however (which I've had a lot before too), never seems to disappoint in terms of filling your stomach.
The beans syrup always tastes amazing, the sausages are cooked perfectly, and even the bread with the butter tastes good too!
Didn't much like the Black coffee though, probably because I am accustomed to sugar a lot but I guess that's a personal issue.
Would recommend to choose an orange juice over the coffee to be honest, because the juice tastes amazing!
And of course, 100% natural.
All in all, amazing experience and would definitely recommend for an English breakfast to anyone who asks me.
Shout out to Mikee. You took very nice care of us. Only reason why I wasn't hesitant to fill the customer satisfaction form.
Thank you for such nice service.
My absolute favorite place for bagels. I'm a regular here during LitFest time. Highly recommend their cheese and jalapeno bagel, with absolutely anything. Tried their mint frappe too but it was a bit too sweet for my liking and since I'd had a chicken fillet bagel with it (which is super filling), I hardly had room for the drink.
Good service, good food, on the whole!
Planning for some great healthy snack with some great Hot Chocolate!! The bagel bar coffee is the choice. It surely has some good snacks and coffee.
Location: It's exactly located outside marks and spencer.
Ambience: Pretty decent and good. Looks like a sophisticated coffee shop.
Food: veggie bagel. The taste was really good. Healthy as well. Would surely recommend people to try.
Drinks:
Hot chocolate: The hot chocolate was really good. Not sweet. Just the perfect mix.

I enjoy this place a lot
Their wide range of bagel excites me
Their sandwiches are very light and I love the concept of how they allow you to keep a track on calories of each order in their menu , helps me a lot !

I had ordered a cafe mocha and cheese,tomato and onion toastie .. the cafe mocha was so good and had the perfect blend of chocolate and mocha .. the toastie was also good and light .. served with some potato wedges on the side
