I love Mickey C's Bagels. I used to come here every morning for their breakfast bagels, and I was never disappointed. If you are not in the mood for something as hearty, a bagel with garlic herb specialty shmear is fantastic. I highly recommend this place for breakfast. What to order: -Eggel w/ sausage, Denver Special w/ sausage, or Fiesta Eggel w/ sausage Pros: -Huge variety of choices Cons: -None

Awful service. Don't know if the owner guy is racist but he kindly helped the large white party in front of me and when I came up to the cash register and ordered, (I'm of Spanish descent) rudely waved his hand and told me to stand out of line. Another girl waiting for her item looked at me shocked and asked why he brushed me off so rudely. I said I'd take my money elsewhere if he wants to be rude. Go next door to cafe sole. Coffee and breakfast is better.

The bagels are good, the service is great. Unfortunately, it seems like a business that has had its days. Today, they do a lot of wholesale and so retail is not their focus. #1 in Boulder is Moe's Bagels, #2 is Mickey C's. I give them 4 stars, not a 3 because their service was so quick and easy when I needed breakfast for the crews and needed them quick.
As I ate my bagel and was the only person in there, I watched the staff restock the bagel display case WITHOUT GLOVES ON. She went from handling money, to touching over 40 bagels out of apparent laziness. It was the manger and the counter help, they both did it. Will not return.

Good coffee, good food, awful service. They have never once gotten a breakfast bagel sandwich order correct. It's really disappointing because this place has the potential to be a great local shop.

Mickey C's has got some cute local character and some pretty creative menu options. I went here with a friend back in May and remembered liking the albacore tuna sandwich, so I returned today. I ordered "The Hill" sandwich on olive bread, which includes bacon, ham, turkey, cucumbers, onions, lettuce, and tomatoes. I added cheese. I think I overdid it with the cheese. The sandwich as a whole tasted very fresh, but I would get the tuna melt over this next time. They also have a lot of vegetarian options. I chose the potato salad side, but didn't eat much of it--a little bland. I also got their caramel apple cider drink, with extra caramel :) It was yummy. The attendant was considerate and made everything with care. I do have to say that I was a bit grossed out with all the flies that were roaming around. Ugh! I can't stand flies and there were like four zooming by me. Had there been no flies, this place would have easily won an extra star.

Kind of disappointing. On a whim, I went here today to get a bagel with cream cheese. I was craving sun-dried tomato cream cheese. Mmmm... I was annoyed to discover that their different cream cheeses cost different amounts and to get a bagel with sun-dried tomato cream cheese was almost a dollar more than plain cream cheese. Huh? I went ahead and ordered it because that was what my hankering was for. In the end, I thought it wasn't as good as Einstein's Bagels--neither the bagel nor the overpriced cream cheese--so that is where I'll be going in the future.

The lines are long, but it's the best option for a bagel breakfast sandwich on a Saturday morning. If you want a NY bagel though, you won't find it here.

I love the selection and prices here. I work right in the complex and the variety of healthy choices always pleases me. There are so few spots that offer breakfast and lunch choices all day. They make their own seasonal cream cheese options and you can always get something different. I can totally understand charging an additional amount for a premium cream cheese blend, extra ingredients cost extra money. The sandwiches are excellent, and I've never been asked to pay for subbing avocado for cheese on my SOBO (BLT extraordinaire!) The service is always exemplary and I've never felt pressured to make up my mind. My only reason to not award the 5 star rating is a one time poor experience with the soup and I am more than willing to try again. I know that it could be an isolated incident and will review as needed. Highly recommended! Veggie friendly!

Lots of variety. Bagels, sandwiches, Boulder ice cream and coffee. Free kids ice cream when it's snowing. Good all around place for a quick bite in S. Boulder. The patio outside is great on a nice day.

Had a hankering for an egg and cheese on my way to a meeting this morning, and this spot is in my neighborhood so I thought I'd give it a try. Based upon the general appearance of the place (and the multiple microwaves behind the counter) I asked whether they fried the eggs for their egg and omelette sandwiches. They do not; they microwave them. If I wanted a "fake" egg sandwich, I could get one cheaper and faster at any fast food joint. Instead, I ordered an everything bagel with veggie cream cheese. The latter provided the only positive aspect of the experience - it seemed that they'd made it in-house, with actual pieces of vegetables. The bagel, however, was of unacceptable quality. Had I not known better, I would have assumed it was from a gas station or Dunkin' Donuts, not a store that purports to be a bagel shop. To top it off, what they call an "everything" bagel was merely sesame and poppy mix. An everything bagel has sesame, poppy, garlic, onion, and salt. Yes, making a real bagel is a difficult endeavor, but it seems like Mickey C's isn't even trying.

I was directed to this place by the employees at Play It Again Sports. I really liked Mickey C's. I ordered the Eldorado Sandwich and chose the Cucumber Tomato Salad as my side. The salad was yummy. Just the right amount. You can tell they know their herbs because there were plenty. I was expecting something bland in the side but I think it was the highlight of my lunch. The sandwich was good as well. I had the Eldorado on Rustic Olive bread. The bread was good and crusty. I don't remember the contents of the sandwich but I remember ordering it because it was one of the few sandwiches that had meat. The additions to the meat and cheese in the sandwich were interesting and very tasty. I'm glad I was told about this place because I could see myself going again if I'm ever in that shopping center.

Atrocious. This place should not call itself a bagel store since they obviously spend more time making sandwiches and serving ice cream. The bagels are horrid and the service is slow.

My friend and I ordered toasted cinnamon sugar bagels with cream cheese and I ordered a café au lait. Apparently, the lady who cut our bagels used a knife that had just been used for something else. Our bagels tasted of garlic. My café au lait had no coffee in it. I would have pointed this out to the owner/manager, but he can be rather rude to his employees.
