5 Borough Bagels is a locally-owned and operated bagel shop that has been serving fresh, New York-style bagels to the Des Moines Metro since 2016. They offer 12 delicious bagel flavors and 12 house-made cream cheeses, all made with fresh ingredients. The shop also serves locally roasted coffee and espresso with a rich, full-bodied flavor. Customers praise the polite staff, clean cafe, and overall great food and drinks. While some have noted a lack of seating and a few minor issues with sandwiches, the majority of reviews highlight the excellent quality and customer service at 5 Borough Bagels.
The food has been superb every time I've visited, but was thoroughly disappointed to find out today that the bathrooms do not have changing tables. This is a major inconvenience for parents of small children, and unfortunately, it means my family will likely not eat in the cafe for the foreseeable future.

Best bagel place around! Workers are so polite, bagels are made fresh, and the coffee is wonderful as well! The cafe area is always clean and there is many places to sit.
