Great place! The staff are all lovely and friendly, they even gifted us a couple of the cinnamon bagels � I got the turkey club bagel and it was HUGE and delicious. I'd definitely recommend giving this place a go for a filling lunch.
Treated ourselves to lunch from BROSS Bagels on the High Street, Portobello today - absolutely delicious. We had the Porty (hot smoked salmon, Crowdie cream cheese, lemon, dill and cracked black pepper - superb!... and the Big Apple - equally delicious (pastrami, Monterey Jack cheese, pickle and Dijonaise) - very NYC! Great new addition to the High Street - will definitely come again - all the best :-)
The most amazing bagels in town! I had the breakfast bagel recommended by the guys with a flat white. Divine! Made my day. I have told everyone about this place and many friends have been and are now regulars!
Bross Bagels is a new bagel emporium on Portobello High Street. The super lovely staff serve deliciously-filled bagels made to their custom recipe by the Breadshare Community. Industrial chic interior and good coffee too. Ideal!
OMG a decent (very good!) in this country. Thankyou Bross Bagels. I stopped by to pick up a couple of bagels (I literally bring back a dozen from Boston when I go each year and fashion them in the freezer over my weekends!) but now I can go here.
Texture, flavour and sooooooo much bette than any other deli bagel attempt or the supermarket rubbish packs.
I’ll be back regularly!
Nipped in today after reading all the great reviews...
Spoilt for choice and ended up with the Mama Bross Bagel (poached chicken salad).
Popped it in the fridge for lunch.......but just HAD to eat it!!
Needless to say it's gone and was delicious!!
Honestly the best lunch decision I’ve ever made. Big Apple was just delicious! So fresh and tasty. Will definitely go back again very soon.
Amazing bagels! Had the chicken,cheese and Avocado,lots of fillings and a lot of choice,also love how they have a vegan option.
Lovely bagels and service at this porty hotspot. I try something new every time i go and i've not been disappointed yet.
I'd recommend not leaving it too late on thursdays and fridays as i've been in after 2 for a late lunch and they've been out of bagels. Learnt my lesson and go earlier now!
Excited to hear about another location in Leith as i live in the area.
I love Bross Bagel!! Omg the best bagel I ever had in my life! Montreal is my favourite so far. Poppy seed bagel so crispy and the filling so juicy and delicious. I order 2 today for lunch and finnished them haha� I will def order more!!
Best bagels I’ve tasted lots of great fillings and the coffee is excellent too. Favourite lunchtime treat in Portobello .
Top notch little eatery. Bagels are bangin!!! They are crammed with filling and the bagels are crispy. Totally recommend if you are in the porty area!
Want to try the cinnamon and raisin next.
First time here today - delish bagel & coffee! Would totally recommend. Speedy & very friendly service 👍
amazing place with awesome vibes and music.
Vegan menu and options available, top quality food.
Self serving water station with also terrific service from the staff. Great atmosphere and very welcoming to all. Would certainly recommend and will be back to try more of the Vegan bagels! Vegan brownie was absolutely 10/10.
Card only. No cash. Dine in or take away.
Been a few times to the one in Bruntsfield but thought I’d give the one in Portobello a try. Not disappointed! Great service, excellent quality bagels and nice place to chill out for lunch.
The bagels are always very good, but this time the service was excellent. The person working at the counter forgot the lox on my order and she made me a new one for free immediatly and smiling, so nice.
Absolutely delicious! Warm soft flavourful bagels, I got the everything bagel with fried cauliflower, cream cheese, Monterey jack cheese, buffalo sauce! The filling to bread ratio was immaculate, I would happily eat the whole bagel over 2 meals but can satisfy 1 hungry tummy easily. Definitely recommend it, came here at 9am after a beach run. 10/10 overall.
Hands down the BEST bagels outside of Montreal. This is what a REAL bagel is! Chewy, slightly sweet and delicious toasted with a shmear of cream cheese and lox. Helpful staff to too!
Well done! Reminds me of NYC!
Had a plain bagel with cream cheese and it was fab.
A bit crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside. Cream cheese had the perfect bit of tang.
Delicious!
Glad I stopped in!
Great vegan options and the portion size is good for the price. Definitely very delicious and worth the money. The staff was nice however it was very busy so they forgot to put sauerkraut in the hotdog like it’s support to have it, we asked twice but they kept forgetting, in the end we go it and gave us free brownies too for waiting. The inside was quite dirty but it was understandable as it was a very busy Saturday afternoon on a very sunny day. I’d still go there many times!
Located on the Portobello High Street in Edinburgh, it is very close to the beach. An excellent eatery place for vegans with a wide variety of bagel fillings. Sitting places are very limited though.
Absolutely lovely bagels and service!
It was a bit busy on the Saturday we went, but well with the wait. I ordered the Everything Bagel with Lox & Cream Cheese and it did not disappoint.
It’s a quirky, hip atmosphere with good music and decor. Quite a small establishment, but good for a coffee, bagel and catchup with a friend.
I will be back to try their bagel sandwiches. I was hankering for some lox and cream cheese, but they had some interesting choices that I feel compelled to try on my next visit.
As a Montrealer, Bross Bagels made me proud! If anything... these are the best bagels I've ever had in my life. I travelled to Scotland back in May of 2022, and after doing some digging I found Bross Bagels and knew I needed to stop by, and I had chosen to visit the Portobello location. I had ordered a bagel, I believe it's either the Porty or Leith (cannot remember off the top of my head), but the warm smoked salmon and the pickle knocked it out of the park for me. The bagels weren't too chewy, or dry, they were just perfect. To this day, I think about that bagel atleast once a week. If you do choose to visit this location, feel free to dine in or take your bagel to the beach which is only about 5 minutes away! Cannot wait to be back in the fall of 2023.
Both bagels & coffee are divine - you need a Bross Bagel in your life! My partner received exceptional service when dining in today too. Highly recommend.
Amazing bagel, we tried the Licking Chicken cold bagel to take away. Stuffed with filling and absolutely delicious. We visited late morning/early afternoon, there was no queue and service was pretty quick
A bagel so good i walked for an hour from Edinburgh and I would do it again.
I had a Dirty Rachel on an everything bagel. It was absolutely packed to the max.
If i lived locally there is no doubt, i would have to become a shareholder.
Message to the directors :If you consider opening in southwest England please contact me!
Ordered for collection. Order was ready on time. Handed over with a smile and a thank you. The dirty Rachel was everything I hoped it would be. Stuffed full of fillings and very very tasty! Been once to Leith and once here. Both excellent. Well recommended
Best bagels ever! Not even an understatement, they are THAT good! Just been in Edinburgh for a week and visited a few times as the staff are super lovely and the food is incredible. Oh, also try the coffee, it's sooooo good! We even nipped in on our way back up north to get some bagels to take home with us.
