EY Bagel

One bagel brings together the gentle heat of spicy cod roe, fragrant shiso and rich cheese: the Mentai Shiso Cheese. At EY Bagel, choosing a filling means weighing up tempting combinations, both savoury and sweet. One diner described the dough as having both a light, soft quality and a chewy texture, and noted how the spicy cod roe, diced cheese and shiso are complemented by the aroma and texture of white sesame. It’s a good choice if you want to enjoy the fillings as well as the texture of the bagel itself.

For a savoury option, there’s a bagel filled with kinpira burdock, seasoned with a sweet, rich sauce. Another visitor praised how well it paired with the dough, which was chewy yet easy to bite through. They also bought bagels with vegetables and spicy cod roe, suggesting that a few savoury choices could make a satisfying lunch.

Sweet options reported by visitors include fig and cream cheese, black sesame and sweet red bean paste, and sweet potato with sesame. The fig and cream cheese bagel pairs the fruit’s seedy texture with the richness and slight tang of cream cheese. The combination of textured red bean paste and black sesame was another visitor’s standout. You could also take a sweet bagel home after choosing a savoury one. Visitors suggest warming takeout bagels in different ways to enjoy their textures: a microwave makes them chewy, while a toaster crisps the outside. One person took home sweet potato and sesame, and fig and cream cheese bagels, then warmed them the next morning. Buying a few to enjoy at different times is another option.

For a dine-in visit, pair a bagel with coffee or a café latte. Menu information also lists black tea, seasonal herbal tea and iced drinks. Some visitors have eaten in, and you can choose between staying at the café and taking your order away. The shop is open on Wednesdays and Sundays from 11:00 to 18:00. This bagel shop is in Daitōchō, Miyakojima Ward, Osaka City, and offers takeout.
