This is one of the most amazing treasures in Calabash. I lucked into them on a recent trip and I wish I had more room to try several more things. There is so much variety that even the pickiest of eaters will find something that wows them. I can’t wait to go back.

Very delicious! There was a very long line but after getting the food, it was obvious why. The bagels are perfect – not too doughy and have a crispy outside. I got the Ragin Cajun on a Chesapeake cheddar bagel and I’ll get it again
Even though the line was long, the food didn’t take too long to come out.

My family and I went here for the first time for lunch and enjoyed sandwiches, all served with a side of potato, macaroni, or coleslaw, and pickle. The sandwiches were freshly made and seasoned well. The menu is extensive with something for everyone, including scrumptious looking pastries and cookies. We will definitely be going back to try other menu items.

My wife and I make it a point to visit Bagel Dock almost every morning when we vacation several times a year at Ocean Isle. I read some previous haters comments about pricing and too many menu options…pricing is in line with food prices everywhere else and the service from staff is the friendliest it could be (even when they’re crazy busy). The electronic menus do show A LOT of options but you have plenty of time in line to decide what you might like to order; plus, the cashiers are patient and very willing to help you decide. The bagels options seem endless, with so many combinations and pairings with the different cream cheeses. Don’t get frustrated, get happy about all the possibilities!
I usually get the Bacon Egg Cheese or Sausage Egg Cheese on either the Chesapeake Cheddar or Bacon Cheddar bagel.
And they are proud of the water filtration system! There are signs everywhere. I’m a believer. I’m no bagel expert, just a southern country boy with a lot of travel experience, but what I do know is, these are the best bagels we’ve ever had…fresh, perfectly balanced density vs softness, and a light crispiness that completes the bagel experience.
When ordering our breakfast bagels, we also usually order some chicken salad and a couple of Rye or Everything bagels to-go.
And don’t fret over the length of the line, it moves fast…and honestly, you’re probably on vacation, so enjoy the moment (or get there earlier).

BEST bagels anywhere around (and trust me I look!). This was an awesome cafe atmosphere and most amazing bagels! These high quality NYC style bagels are made on- site! Using a superb high quality water filtration system that costs more then$30k dollars- it’s designed to create NYC water just to replicate that real bagel texture, chew and taste. They also offer an array of other sweet treats, sandwiches and salads! I’ll stop by from now anytime I’m near.

These are the best bagels I have ever eaten. We came one morning while we were vacationing at nearby Sunset Beach and the bagels were so darn fantastic, we came back the next morning and bought bags of bagels to take back to our vacation rental to munch on the rest of the week. All of their bagels are soft, fluffy, and fresh. The ghost pepper bagel is fantastic if you like heat. And the cream cheeses – veg, scallion, strawberry – perfection! They had enough seating in the restaurant to handle our large party of 10 with ease, and they processed 10 custom breakfast orders with very little wait. Great service on top of great food – a must visit if you’re in the area.

The bagels are fantastic, especially the Nova Lox. This is definitely my favorite bagel place.
They have other options besides bagels and bakery that makes delicious treats.

The bagels are awesome! Real fried eggs on the breakfast sandwiches were the cherry on top for me. Plenty of options along with something for your sweet tooth as well. Daily breakfast specials if you order before 9am. The staff are pleasant, helpful, and bring a level of energy you don’t see everyday. Definitely will be returning before we leave.

I liked the Bagel Dock. Products and pricing was good. Everyone was busting their butts the entire time we were there around 1pm on a Sunday. The point of sale marketing was super heavy and thought out and I believed without researching that it is a concept for franchising. Ownership and management presence during our visit was also unusually heavy for the volume I witnessed. Based on what I saw at this time of the day I suspect that ownership was concerned about resetting for a holiday Monday and even when expecting a heavy hit with business the next day the level of that attention leads me to believe costs may be out of hand or there is an unhealthy amount of analysis paralysis with the numbers. Management seemed slightly stressed during my visit due to the ownership presence. Other clues give me concern about the health of this store. The Ace Hardware help wanted sign on the front door says desperation along with handwritten hours of operation rather than being permanent. Watching ownership interview a new hire and consulting management without smiling tell me that this could be a tough place to work. Just a couple of reviews in doing a little research shows ownership has a poor attitude and business ethic. Additionally, the number of cameras in the back of the house and dining room is concerning. My experience is that kitchen cams are meant to keep management straight and at this point I would recommend that if owners are being consulted, they should bring in other opinions. I would suggest having the GM from Boundary House come in as a mystery shopper. He runs great service and the staff are very welcoming. I saw some great team members here working hard today but something is wrong here. The comments on many of these reviews are concerning and that attitude leads to attrition and putting your keys on the counter and not coming back. You will lose everything by acting like that.
Update : No soup for me.
