Hassle free bagels. Ordered online and was available when I came to pick it up. No whitefish salad so I had the crispy potatoes and chorizo on a toasted everything. They had an egg, cheese and sausage on a Chicago style. While mine was good, it didn’t work that well together. The potatoes and chorizo deserve to be on their own, and my bagel needed a better compliment of toppings. It was still crispy on the outside and slightly chewy on the inside. No salt but fennel seeds in their mix. The Chicago bagel was better imo. It had a better overall texture and flavor. Service style egg and sausage patties were disappointing. They had plenty of seating in their brightly lit dining area but I grabbed my order togo.

We tried this bagel spot and had a great experience! We ordered a chicken Caesar bagel and a lox bagel both on an everything bagel.
The portions were generous and everything was delicious especially the lox which had plenty of salmon inside 🙂
Service was fast and efficient. There are a few seats inside but it’s a small space and clearly more of a grab-and-go spot. It gets busy but things move quickly.
Overall we were very happy with the quality and value for the price.

Best bagels in Chicago! I bring all my fam and friends from out of town here and it never disappoints. My go to is usually the cheddar bagel sandwich with chorizo, egg and cheese and it always hits the spot. Love their weekly bagel of the week drops and their seasonal cream cheeses. Tilly’s has become a weekly tradition at this point!

I stopped by the shop today and had a great overall experience. The front staff was polite, welcoming, and engaging. My only suggestion would be for the kitchen staff to clean the toaster between items or consider having designated toasters for sweet versus savory bagels. I ordered a cinnamon sweet bagel, but it picked up seeds and onion flavor from other items toasted before it. Other than that, the bagels were very tasty, and I will definitely be back!

Great breakfast spot: Large bagels, generous cream cheese, clean store, friendly staff. You pick your sandwich, bagel type (toasted or not) and cream cheese. Plan for a line, but it wasn’t bad. They have a spot with water and cups. You can walk a few blocks to the park to eat, but there are a few spots inside to sit. We tried the lox (liked it, my son thought it was a bit salty), and bacon egg and cheese (delicious, and great crispy bacon), with different bagels and cream cheese options it’s very customizable. We also had the chocolate chip bagel with Bluberry cream cheese and pumpkin bagel with honey vanilla cream cheese. Good amount of options of bagels and cream cheese.

Looking for a classic bagel spot (and one close by), we turned to Tilly’s to satisfy that craving and they did not disappoint. We got there right at opening and were first in line; by the time they opened there were about 5-6 other people waiting behind. As with any downtown spot be aware of parking being spotty but this is well worth a trip. We were let inside the exact minute the store opened and the inside was sleek and clean. We ordered a plain bagel with plain cream cheese and a caccio e pepe bagel with carmelized onion cream cheese and a coffee. Ordering was smooth and the staff were very friendly, seeming to actually enjoy working there quite a bit.
They put milk and syrups on the side for any coffees so be advised, if you make a bad cup of coffee then that’s on you. They also have a water cooler out for you to grab a cup if you just want that. We got our bagels pretty quick and were so excited to dive into them. Both bagels were crisp and soft like a bagel should be. The plain bagel and plain cream cheese combo is a classic that they got down right. The cacio e pepe bagel with the caramelized onion spread was a unique taste, extremely savory with the cheesy flavor of the bagel coming through well. We ate our bagels pretty quick and were happy with what we ate, but will admit we weren’t blown away.
The verdict? Tilly’s definitely makes a good bagel. Good enough where if you’re in the area you should come out to it and see what it’s about. In comparison to other bagels we’ve had it stacks up decently, but again doesn’t stand out amongst the best. We would be interested to see what other flavor combos tasted like here so if we’re ever in the area again we would definitely give it another try.

Ordered a latte and a lox sandwich at 1:30 on a Saturday. The contents of the sandwich were 9/10. The bagel was over toasted and almost burnt. Overall this sesame bagel was just average and did not live up to the name. The lox and capers inside the sandwich were delish. Maybe it was near the end of the day and the food staff were getting lazy.

Ate here two days in a row, both days I told the clerk just two give me their favorite bagel and cream cheese on my sandwich. Both day they gave me something different and both were really good! They are quick, clean, and friendly. The shop itself is pretty small with limited seating but well worth it for the food.

Lovely spot, delicious fillings (especially the salmon and fresh red onion). I got the lox on an everything with sun dried tomato cc.
I WILL say though, for a bagel spot, the bagel itself could have been better. It may have just been that i went mid-day, however, it was like a 7/10 bagel score, and a 9/10 sandwich score. Worth a visit 🙂
