  It is unbelievable the frequency at which this particular location can fundamentally screw up your order. Spread has great bagels. But I hate to go to this location because 85% of the time they screw up the order. I even asked as I was taking the bag, to make sure the correct items were in my order. They rolled their eyes at me and basically said “duh” only for me to arrive at my office open the bag and unwrap the completely incorrect order. Unreal

  Spread Bagelry on 20th has been one of my neighborhood breakfast spots since 2017, and it never disappoints. Before coming here, I’d never really experienced Montreal-style bagels, and now I absolutely love them. The wood-fired finish gives them a slightly crisp exterior while still staying chewy inside, and they’re equally great as breakfast sandwiches or with schmears. I usually order the sausage, egg, and cheese. I think the technical “standard” sandwich on the menu is bacon, egg, and cheese, but I’m a sausage guy. Add a coffee or juice, and it’s a perfect low-key breakfast. The setup is excellent: indoor seating, outdoor tables, quick service, and enough variety to make it feel like a true breakfast spot rather than just a bagel counter. The staff is always warm and helpful, and they feel like true Philly locals. You can tell this place was built with love. Spread also complements places like Kismet really well. Philly’s lucky to have both. Different styles, different vibes, both excellent. My appreciation for this place even pushed me to visit St-Viateur in Montreal after seeing it featured on Somebody Feed Phil. That trip made me appreciate Spread even more because these bagels absolutely hold up. There’s also a great Philly episode of the show. Spread offers fair pricing for consistently excellent food and is a reliable neighborhood staple. It's great seeing them continue to expand around Philadelphia. Highly recommended!

  Thanks for turning my block into a trucking operation for your new distribution warehouse in fishtown, and idling the truck for 3 hours a day at the side of my house. Really great improvement to our neighborhood hearing the constant slamming of trays and lift gates. All this food comes on a truck from sysco, us foods and David rosen baking. I know this because they all park in front of my house since you didn't bother to get a facility with a loading zone. Also one of them hit my car trying to squeeze down our residential street at 5am

  One of if not the best bagel I’ve ever had (including Montreal and NYC). Recommend the Rosemary and Sea Salt 🤌
