The Bagel spot in Bangor! - Edit
The venue is beautiful, located in downtown Bangor right on the canal. Bagel Central has been a local main stay for many years and I’m glad to report they have clearly labeled vegan options! We’re talking bagels , tofu cream cheese, pastries etc. today for lunch I had the pleasure of trying the cranberry water bagel with tofu spread and a pumpkin chocolate chip Pastry. The spot is huge ! And the staff is super efficient and friendly. The overall vibe was awesome and I’ll be back tomorrow for the same

Highly recommend - Edit
I ordered the cranberry-water bagel with their tofu spread, and had a slice of blueberry lemon bread. It was all delicious. For non-dairy coffee creamer they only had almond, which is fine for me but maybe not for everyone.

Good overall - Edit
Solid bagels and tofu cream cheese. Not all bagels are vegan, so be careful when ordering.

good bagels and tofu cream cheese - Edit
this place is super busy but it has a nice old school vibe on the inside. There are a few options for vegan bagels which seems to be enough and tofu cream cheese. I got it toasted and we took it outside to eat. If I lived in the area then I think I’d be here all the time.

Good spot for breakfast - Edit
Very busy bagel spot in town. Expect to wait in line on the weekends. Get hummus or tofu cream cheese on your choice of vegan bagels.

Good bagels. Bland sandwiches. - Edit
The bagels were pretty good, as was the vegan cream cheese. But the sandwich options were pretty bland. The sort of thing you’d expect a non-vegan to come up with: raw veggies, no seasoning, hardly any spread to give anything flavor. Next time, I’d just stick with a bagel and cream cheese.
Read morePros: Several well marked vegan options, Plenty of vegan bagels, Staff knows what vegan means
Cons: Bland sandwich options

Love it! - Edit
Lots of seating inside, and lots of vegan options. I went at about 8 am and there was a line out the door, however it went very fast! I have tried the vegan cream cheese, avocado sandwich, and lemonade here. The lemonade is so sweet and yummy, I definitely recommend trying. The vegan cream cheese is as realistic to real cream cheese that I've had. I wasn't sure at first if they might have messed up my order! The avocado sandwich was delicious as well and the avocado was very fresh! Only complaint I might have is that the cashier had no idea what was vegan and what wasn't so I only hope that the avocado sandwich is actually vegan because I just guessed from what ingredients they had up!

Cons: Asked for pasta salad, gave me fruit, Didn't understand what vegan was

Long standing, quality place - Edit
Bagel Central has been an institution in Bangor for quite some time. They are reliable when you want to sit for a while with a hot beverage and a bagel. They have free wi-fi and large tables, so it is a great place to sit and work or read a book. They have about a half a dozen options for vegan bagels (marbled rye, cranberry-water, sesame-water, whole wheat, and whole wheat everything). They have tofu cream cheese, peanut butter, and hummus as bagel toppings. They have a solid lunch menu, but the offerings may be better for vegetarians at lunch than for vegans. Every day, they have at least one vegetarian (often vegan soup) with lunch. Their bagel sandwiches (typically just vegetarian) are so good! The only thing I don't care for is the coffee, but overall, Bagel Central is quite nice.

Deeeelicious gazpacho - try it if you like spicy!

Friendly staff, cool artsy-Mainer vibe, and they even have two honest-to-goodness phone booths, in case you need a quick superhero changing room.
