Soho Bagels and Cafe

I'm in here at least once or twice a month for bagels and always had a good experience. Love their selection and they are always fresh and usually warm most of the time. Staff is friendly and the service is quick. And if you didn't know on Tuesdays there is a special for a half dozen of bagels with a tub of cream cheese for 10 bucks. Can't beat that. The in house cream cheese is also very airy and smooth. I'm a big fan of that rather than the dense kind. Sandwiches made to order. Lots of coffee options as they have a professional espresso machine. Plenty of seating for dining in. Best bagels you'll find on the west side of town for sure.

Super good bagels and breakfast sandwiches and cheap prices. Definitely worth going to.

Excellent place to stop for breakfast and coffee! I'm so glad I found this place! It's right down the road from my job. I got an omelette wrap with bacon and a mococcino with oat milk and it was all delicious

Excellent bagels and sandwiches at great prices. I've never had Mac salad with ham in it before but it was good! Their Italian bagels are very good but are quite salty.

Love it here! I have dined in and done the drive thru and it’s always a good experience. The staff are super friendly, I love that they have the Jamaican me Crazy coffee too! Their bagels are so good with their cream cream cheese. My go to is the multigrain bagel with honey walnut cream cheese. My fiancé has tried their frozen drinks too and they are tasty! The atmosphere inside is nice too especially if going with some friends!

SOHO BAGEL is the best bagel restaurant in the City of Rochester. Mike and his employees make your bagel sandwiches fresh with real ingredients, and the cream cheese selections are all handmade. I frequent this place multiple times a week, and I have NEVER had a bad sandwich. Great job Mike. SOHO is everything a bagel shop should be.

Dear SOHO Bagels & Cafe Management,

I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to reach out today regarding a recent visit my party and I made to your establishment. First and foremost, I'd like to express my admiration for the shop's overall aesthetic.

Upon arrival, we noticed the bustling drive-through, which typically might deter a party of our size. However, we decided to proceed and queued up at the counter. As we waited for our meals, we observed that the level of activity in the shop only increased. Throughout this busy period, I was thoroughly impressed by the dedication and hard work exhibited by every single member of your staff.

For a continuous hour and a half, I witnessed your remarkable crew efficiently handling numerous orders. What truly stood out was their unwavering attentiveness to each customer's needs. It has been quite some time since I visited a shop and thought, "Wow, this team is truly working diligently!"

I wanted to extend my heartfelt gratitude for providing us with an exceptional breakfast experience, especially considering the challenges posed by our large party on a busy holiday weekend. I believe the outstanding efforts of your team deserve recognition and appreciation.

Once again, thank you for your remarkable service, and please convey my sincere compliments to the dedicated crew who made our visit memorable.

Warm regards, a first time and NOT a last time customer 🙂

Cute place, delicious food, and helpful staff. The breakfast bagel sandwich I ordered was quite tasty. I also walked in with two bags full of items from shopping nearby while waiting for my car to be repaired. A staff member gave me a box to place my bags in, walked it to my table, and even brought over a City newspaper for me to read while I ate. Top notch service. Thank you.

So GOOD! I needed something filling and fresh that would hold me over for the entire day. With some assistance I ordered the Village Veggie (multigrain honey bagel, garden vegetable cream cheese, & all the veggies) and added Turkey “To-Go”. I believe it was the owner, who cautioned me not to eat it in the car because it would be a mess. He was correct but it was worth the wait! The bagel was perfect in texture! Yum! Being from NC and traveling solo, it can be difficult walking into unknown places especially when trying to sick to non-chain restaurants. But I’m so glad I did! The only thing that could’ve been better about my visit to Soho bagels, would have been to eat in. The place is cozy and inviting. If my work gives me the opportunity to Visit Rochester again, I will definitely be back.!

My fiancé and I have been doing keto for a while and tried tons of bagel recipes, to no avail. We stopped in and got some of the low carb bagels and they are AMAZING! 10/10 game changer.

Not only was this place delicious, the staff were so sweet and so kind! Great way to start the morning!

Haven't had a bagel in years and stopped earlier this week at the "chain" shop. Plain Bagel with cream cheese was mediocre and expensive. Decided to stop at Soho this morning. What a HUGE difference! Plain bagel with fruited cream cheese - DELICIOUS - the absolute best I have had in many, many years! And the cost was significant lower! I will definitely be stopping more often and supporting a local business!

Truly love this place! Some of the best bagels I've ever had and I used to work at a competitor's bagel shop and still prefer these over theirs. My favorite is a jalapeno cheddar but they also have a chonga (cheese,onion,garlic) which is divine as well. A big mouth sandwich will get you two eggs extra meat and extra cheese on whatever bagel you prefer a classic breakfast sandwich is one egg two slices of meat and one slice of cheese. They also have specialty sandwiches for lunches like Philly cheesesteak which is extremely popular and chicken sandwiches that rival even the best gastropub. If you look in your local flavor magazine they currently have coupons as well so you can try them for a discounted price.

Best breakfast in town! 👍🏻🤤

We were staying at the Marriot down the street from here and decided to try this place out. Little did we realize we were gonna have a 5-star bagel sandwich! It was so good we went back the next morning. Coffee was great too. Only thing is it can take a while for your food to be ready, but it was definitely worth it to us for how good everything tasted.

Honestly, the best bagels I've found since moving to Rochester. the ordering/pay system isn't the most efficientwhen it gets busy, but staff are very friendly and helpful, and the interior is clean and appealing, would recommend to a friend.

The classic breakfast sandwich is amazing! Always my go-to! Great customer service! Lots of seating. I don’t go anywhere else for my bagels! The cinnamon roll is out of this world!

As someone who wouldn't say they're a bagel person, this place has me bananas for them! Soho's bagels are the best ratio of crispy shell, dense + chewy crumb, and light eats. This makes them as ideal for sandwiches as eating with a shmear of cream cheese.

There is a clear reason why they're voted as a Rochester favorite. My only regret is not trying them earlier!

I used to come here years ago then I moved. I can back last week and I came here for some food today. It’s still as good as I remember!

The best bagels around!!! Every type I've had I've really enjoyed. The multi-grain is my favorite. The homemade cream cheese is awesome with a large choice of flavors. The customer service is also great! Everyone there is wonderful and eager to make sure your order is perfect! It's a nice place to meet up with friends and enjoy a bagel and some coffee! The menu has something for everyone.
