Sidedoor Bagel: Delight in Hand-Rolled Sourdough Bagels and Vegan Options in Indianapolis

Got the Naughty Beccy on a Spicy Everything Bagel. Never in my life had a bagel as good as this one. Take a look at the ingredients, and if you think it intrigues you… it will take you to bagel paradise. An absolute 10/10, and only because I waited until I got home to eat it and it got cold. If it was hot, eaten at the restaurant, I can’t even imagine it. A must try!

Visiting our son in Indy and he treated us to Sidedoor Bagels. Loved the BECCY sandwiches we got. Staff is friendly and fast. Love supporting local small businesses! Will definitely return.

Get the Lox and Loaded, just perfect. This made me and my taste buds dance. Everything was balanced and really good quality. The bagels are very light, great chew, good flavor. A little bit of a wait in line, but this is worth the wait. Outdoor tables for seating, I usually just take it over to The Garage to sit down and eat. Parking was not bad at all, I went to the back of building and got a parking spot, easy.

The best bagel shop ever. Mom and Pop place and the bagels are baked fresh every morning as soon as they open. Really good lattes too. They do a lot of fun seasonal flavors. If you go on a week day there is hardly a wait. I am always in and out, so I love going during the week. So glad to have a local bagel shop that actually makes the bagels from scratch!

Awesome spot w rotating daily specialty bagels and immaculate sandwiches that always hit the spot. My default is the BLT with whatever the bagel of the day is. Great staff. Pictures is blt w jalapeño schmear on a jalapeño cheese pretzel bagel

Great place to stop while driving through for breakfast. I made this my breakfast stop. The only negative I have is that there wasn't a public restroom as I stopped here on my way to Springfield, IL from Ohio. But the food was spot on. I got the Tuesday special Cheesy Hash brown Bagel with lox and dill. For the price, this was a good deal. A perfect breakfast to help me continue the drive and I didn't have to wear off 70 too much. A few back roads but it kept me going west so I was cool with it. Street parking right in front with quick service. I also got to watch the social media/ maybe owner taking pictures of one his bagel sandwiches out front front for that day's Insta post which was mildly entertaining. If I lived in the area, I would go but I wish they had a few seats to sit and eat.

Loved my open-faced lox bagel and they are super generous with the schmear! Beautiful shop too with outdoor seating. System didn’t show that there were some other bagel flavors still available (we wanted everything bagels, but was told they were sold out despite them being in the racks), but that’s def forgiveable! Best to eat these warm in your car if it’s too cold to eat outside

It seems it’s hard to find any local bagel places in downtown Indianapolis, but Sidedoor Bagel, situated just northeast of downtown, answered the call. There is no indoor seating, operating mostly as a carryout spot with limited benches outside when the weather’s nice. I could tell the place frequently gets quickly packed, so keep that in mind—they might sell out. I opted for a spicy everything bagel (a quirky twist on the ubiquitous everyseed variety) and sea salt bagel, and each were fantastic. They put on cream cheese extremely liberally, which I should’ve suspected, but nonetheless the texture of the schmear was perfect for me (I prefer less whipped). Messy but delicious! The service was wonderful and fairly rapid, despite what seemed like a backlog of delivery orders. I appreciated how they posted QR codes outdoors for people to view the menu (and maybe even order right then and there) to save time. The value for money is superb. I will be back if I’m in need of bagels near downtown in the future!
