The service I got was positive. The counter person was friendly and cheerful and made my order promptly. I got a bacon, egg, cheese bfast bagel and it was tasty. The bagel itself was not the best I’ve had nor the worst, just okay.  It may have been under baked a bit as even toasting it did not make it less doughy. I’ll try the shop again as I believe there is promise to it. They do have an excellent assortment of flavors which I want to sample.

Delicious bagels, as good as H&H but the service is terrible. Downright rude.

Garden State Bagels is the only bagel shop in San Diego County I've been to so far that wouldn't close down in the tri-state area in a week. They know what's up here.

This Encinitas strip-mall bagel shop is worth the 50 minute round-trip drive for me from my home -- they have tons of bagel and cream cheese choices, just like the bagel shops of the northeast that I miss dearly. Garden State's bagels are fresh and they've mastered achieving the right density and texture: insides are chewy in the way they should be, outsides are crunchy. 

My go-to breakfast here is the toasted Jalapeño Bagel with Jalapeño Cream Cheese, featuring freshly chopped jalapeño pepper chunks in the cream cheese. I've switched it up a few times and gotten Onion Bagels, Garlic Bagels, and Combination Bagels (i.e. "Everything" Bagels), which are also all good, but I always go back to that same cream cheese here.

Drip coffee at Garden State Bagels isn't bad and selections include, among others, a Hawaiian Hazelnut Coffee and Kona Coffee that I alternate between.

If you've lived in an urban area in the northeast, like me, I believe this is as close as you're going to get to that kind of a bagel shop experience in San Diego County.
