Tali's Bagels & Schmears

Shalom and Aloha! We are Tali's Bagels & Schmear: a local and a New Yorker offering handcrafted traditional New York-style bagels and locally-inspired schmears. What is a schmear? It's basically Yiddish for cream cheese, and we make it entirely from scratch in dairy and vegan-friendly options. We specialize in mini bagels that are half the size and 100% cuter, in everything, black & white sesame, poppy, and classic (plus, they are naturally vegan). Our core schmears include lomi lox, lemon dill, everything, ube, and haupia; however, we are always experimenting with new flavors.

We are a proudly Jewish and proudly queer small business located on the west side. We are currently in accordance with the DOH Food Safety Program and are working out of the Pacific Gateway Center commercial kitchen in Honolulu. We look forward to serving you fresh, NY-style bagels and schmears!
