Just had an awesome breakfast at The Onion Roll in Oak Park—The lox and cream cheese bagel sandwich was fantastic. Definitely hitting this spot again! 🥯👏🏻

Amazing bacon, egg and cheese on a bagel. And the corned beef was really good too. We will definitely be back.

Came here with my boyfriend to try out their breakfast. I got the breakfast special with an everything bagel and he got the fresh smoked lox bagel sandwich on a garlic bagel. Both were delicious!! The bagels were obviously very fresh, the eggs were really good and the bacon was crispy. My boyfriend’s sandwich was fresh and delicious as well. Would definitely come again!!!

These are the best bagels in the Midwest!!! I’m from Chicago but have moved to Alaska, and these bagels are SO GOOD that I have my parents overnight ship me these bagels from Illinois to Alaska monthly. They are divine and so, so worth it. As good as any bagel I’ve ever had in NYC! My favorite is the jalepeño cheddar. Cannot recommend The Onion Roll enough, do yourself a favor and go get yourself some 10/10 bagels. I would rate it higher than 5 stars if I could!

Been here a few times and the food never disappoints! Great coffee and always fresh made food! The bagels are some of the best! We always order the lox when we can. Family from out of town still ask about coming here when they visit. Great employees that are super friendly, will definitely keep coming back here

My husband and I love New York style bagels. If you know, you know! The Onion is spot on with their fresh from scratch bagels at the cafe/restaurant. We fell in love with their great food, delicious coffee, and outstanding hospitality! Armando, the manager gave us a tour of the entire facility where deep behind the cafe you see an amazingly clean area where the female bakers are hard at work preparing the bagels from scratch. If you are ever in the Oak Park area or not, make a special trip to The Onion for a cup of Joe and their delicious New York style bagels!

Stopped here on our way from the city to the burbs to do some shopping - amazing choice on our part. Best lox I’ve had in Chicago, and that’s coming from an East Coaster. They give you a lot too so I’m taking leftovers home with extra bagels! A worthy stop.
