The bagel, like the circle from which it takes its shape, is a metaphor for life; it literally never ends. Enjoy eternally enticing eating with today’s Groupon: for $5, you get $10 worth of bagels, noshes, and drinks at Goldstein's Bagel Bakery. This Groupon is valid for take-out or dine-in at your choice of locations in Arcadia or La Canada.

Goldstein's fresh bagels are made by hand daily, dipped into a boiling bath and hearth baked for a glossy sheen and hearty interior. A bevy of circular creations await your mouth hub, including specialty bagels like cinnamon-raisin, asiago cheese, and delectable peanut butter chocolate chip, as well as classic favorites such as egg, poppy seed, and pumpernickel (usually $6 for six bagels). Upgrade doughy disks with schmears of herb, strawberry, or lox cream cheese, or pair with fresh-squeezed orange or coffee.

Unlike mogwais, Goldstein's bagels can evolve into bagel wraps or sandwiches, such as the vegetarian with avocado, sprouts, tomatoes, and onions ($4). The Arcadia location also features a hot grill for breakfast and lunch items. While every eater is warmly invited to sit back and enjoy a leisurely nosh inside the restaurant, Goldstein's features a drive-through at both locations, for morning commuters, students, and bus drivers who need to fill their bagel-fueled engines.
