Do your bagels contain allergens?

Yes. All of our bagels contain wheat, as they are made with wheat flour. Some varieties may contain additional allergens, including:

  • Egg Bagels – egg
  • Sesame Bagels – sesame
  • Everything Bagels – sesame
  • Chocolate Chip Bagels – dairy and soy
  • Cheese Bagels – dairy

While ingredients containing allergens are prepared separately whenever possible, please note that our kitchen handles a variety of ingredients and we cannot guarantee an allergen-free environment.

Are your bagels gluten-free?

No. Our bagels are made with wheat flour and contain gluten. We do offer gluten-free bagels by Odd Bagel. Please note that they are prepared in a shared kitchen environment where wheat flour is present, so we cannot guarantee they are completely free from cross-contact with gluten.

We do our best to accommodate dietary needs and food allergies whenever possible. Please note that all food is prepared in a shared kitchen environment where allergens such as gluten, peanuts, and other ingredients may be present. While precautions are taken, we cannot guarantee that any item is completely allergen-free due to the risk of cross-contact. If you have a severe allergy, please notify our team before ordering.

Need help with an order?

If you're experiencing an issue, please use the contact method below based on how your order was placed:

  • DoorDash or UberEats: Please contact support directly through their app.
  • House of Bagels website, catering, or walk-up orders: Please send us an email or reach out to Quinn, our manager, and we'll be happy to assist you.

Why do you charge a slicing fee?

We're happy to offer the convenience of sliced bagels, but preparing large quantities takes extra time and effort from our team, especially during busy hours. Rather than increasing prices across the board, we charge separately for additional services like slicing so customers only pay for what they use. This helps us keep our everyday bagel prices as fair as possible.

Are your bagels kosher?

We are not certified kosher at this time.

What if I have food allergies or dietary needs?

We do our best to accommodate dietary needs and food allergies whenever possible. Please note that all food is prepared in a shared kitchen environment where allergens such as gluten, peanuts, and other ingredients may be present.
