Royal Bagel Bakery & Deli 19725 Germantown Road, Germantown, MD 20874

"Great food, good prices, wild long hours, polite workers. I love this place. My only note is make sure to stress you want your bagel well toasted because it feels like every time you get a bagel it’s barely toasted. I know they just want to streamline their output which I get but man, I want a bagel that looks like it sat in the toaster for more than a minute. Also there are no gluten free bread options which was a bummer when I tried to introduce the place to a visiting family member who has allergies. I still suggest this place to everyone who visits. Totally worth the visit."

"We spotted this from the road and decided to give it a try. Quick service. Everyone was ready to take our order. Lots of pastries and bagels options and they all looked delicious and huge. We tried a plain bagel with butter (perfectly toasted) and an egg, cheese, and ham on a croissant. Both absolutely delicious. Iced Vanilla Chai Latte was fantastic as well. Can't wait to come back!"
