Tilly bagel review 🥯

2025/1/24 Edited to

... Read moreOkay, fellow foodies, let me tell you about my recent adventure to Tilly Bagel in Chicago! I'd been hearing so much buzz, and as a true bagel enthusiast, I knew I had to check it out for myself. Spoiler alert: I absolutely splurged, dropping $43 on a few of their famous bagel sandwiches so you don't have to guess what's best – I did the delicious research for you! Walking into Tilly Bagel, I was immediately impressed by the sheer variety they offer. It’s not just your average plain or sesame. They truly let you CHOOSE YOUR BAGEL & CREAM CHEESE combinations, and the options are incredible. I saw unique flavors like garlic rosemary bagel, the intriguing cinnamon blueberry bagel, and even a savory cacio E Pepe bagel. For cream cheese, beyond the classics, I spotted some spicy options, and let me tell you, the jalapeno cream cheese quickly became a favorite. It adds such a fantastic kick! I decided to dive deep and try three different sandwiches. First up was the highly acclaimed Chicken Caesar bagel. I’m usually skeptical about chicken caesar in a bagel, but this one blew me away. The flavors were perfectly balanced, and the bagel itself was fresh and chewy – a real game-changer. Next, I went for a classic with a twist: the Chorizo, egg, & cheese bagel. The chorizo added a smoky, spicy depth that elevated the traditional breakfast sandwich. And of course, I couldn't skip the ultimate comfort food, the bacon egg and cheese bagel. Each bite felt like a warm hug. What really stood out was the quality of the ingredients and how well everything came together. My personal favorite was definitely that Chicken Caesar bagel, closely followed by anything with that amazing jalapeno cream cheese. They also offer Sparrow Coffee, which is a perfect pairing for a morning bagel run. Overall, my trip to Tilly Bagel in Chicago was a fantastic experience. It’s clear why this bagel shop is gaining such a reputation. If you're in the Windy City and looking for some of the best, most creative bagels around, you absolutely need to try Tilly. Yes, I spent $43, but for the quality, the unique flavors, and the pure joy of trying something new and delicious, I’d say it was totally worth it. Trust me on this one, your taste buds will thank you!
