As someone who considers themselves a coffee enthusiast.. Bear’s Cup does NOT disappoint. Don’t let the lines in the mornings fool you, the wait is so beyond worth it! Here you will find all home made artisanal baked goods where you can taste and smell the love that has been put Into each menu item. The coffee is next level where you find some of the best cold brew around. Smooth, balanced but strong. All flavors and add one are also made from scratch. Don’t sleep on the chocolate chip cookies. Highly recommend stopping by this gem when visiting.

Our favorite breakfast spot in the area! Their breakfast sandwiches, pastries, and lattes are phenomenal!Our go-to is the 201 Breakfast Sandwich on one of their amazing ’Tato Buns. We also love the Bear Claw and the Double Chocolate Sea Salt Cookie. Everything we’ve tried has been delicious!The service is excellent! Highly recommend!

I live in KY, and I get the opportunity to visit Bolton Landing once every year. The HIGHLIGHT of my trip every year—bar none—is a trip down the street from the Sagamore to Bear’s Cup. I DREAM of their everything bagel sandwiches, almond croissants, and bear claws….Chef’s kiss! 🏼 I do not hesitate to get in line early! I brought bags of croissants and bagels home with me in July, and wish I could have one right now!! Everyone is all smiles, so friendly….the coffee, the service, and the food—OUTSTANDING! Do not miss!

Very good coffee and very good breakfast sandwiches. It’s just a 0.5 mile walk from the sagamore so I recommend to choose it as an option at least one morning if staying there. Just be prepared to wait in line. It is very popular! It can be up to 25 min to order and then wait for food when busy, but if you’re here on vacation you’re probably not in a rush anyway.

Grabbed breakfast from here on our weekend trip to Bolton. Based on other reviews, we got there at 8am when they opened and there was already a line but the line moved fast. Everything we got was perfect! My favorite was the banana Nutella croissant that I didn't get a picture of!

Hands down the BEST pastries we have ever had! We ordered the mini pastry box earlier on our trip and got the family size box to take home - I promise you will not be disappointed. Everything was so fresh and delicious! Especially the bear claws, cinnamon rolls, and croissants!! We also ordered a loaf of the gluten free chocolate chip banana bread which is sprinkled with coconut. Looking forward to the day they ship nationwide!!!!

Everything is delicious! My favorite is the honey sriracha cream cheese, on an everything bagel. The egg sandwiches are also really great. Make sure you try the banana bread!

Yum! We had the egg, cheese, and bacon sandwich, but with a bagel on the side. Everything was really good. The baker brought out 2 slices of bread fresh from the oven for us to try - wow!The tea was bagged, but good quality.

I am a coffee lover who enjoys more than caffeine, but also the flavors. So I can confidently say that this place drips with quality coffee. The dark roast was a very well balanced brew. It was dark and delicious! Their food is also very good and fresh. I loved the environment of the place too. It's small and packed, so depending on the time of day and season that you visit, you might have trouble finding a table. All in all, it's a great place.

We LOVE Bear’s Cup! We frequent Lake George often between Memorial Day and Labor Day and our very first stop is ALWAYS BC! From their delicious pastries to their amazing drinks, it’s easily the best breakfast spot in the area. Their blueberry muffin and Ubi latte are to die for! We love bringing our dog as it’s an outside walk up and once we order we stroll the streets of Bolton while we wait for our order. We’re always shocked by how fast it’s ready, even with a long line! We’ve been there a few times with a long line and Danielle and her team have offered yummy free samples as we wait. Their customer service is amazing and the team is so efficient! An absolute must try if your in the area, we seriously dream of their bagels all year long!Vegetarian options: They have vegan cream cheese!!

Got bacon, egg, and cheese rolls, they were really good. Almond croissont is delicious. The food came out pretty quickly even during mini breakfast rush. Organization of the line was confusing when we first got there, as it looked like everyone waiting for food looked like they were on line. Otherwise, Great spot for a quick bite to eat :)

Came here to update my review because Bear's Cup bagels are, without a doubt, the best bagels I have ever had. It is a little pricey, but what you're paying for is locally-made, delicious food and incredible customer service. The croissants, bear claws, and bread are incredible, too. So even if you're not in the area, it's absolutely worth a drive!Awesome NY-style bagels! I had The 201, it was delicious. Can't wait to come back!

Stay away from this place! Avocado should have stayed on the tree for another 3 weeks! They had the audacity to charge $9 for hard avocado added to three sandwiches. On top of this, one sandwich had hair in it. Bagels were made poorly as they were crumbling apart.

I came here for breakfast with a group of my friends. I ordered the cinnamon roll, which didn’t have the price on the menu. I can see why it was not on the menu, because it was $7.50! It was small, dry, and did not taste good. It was the worst cinnamon roll I ever had in my life. My friends ordered coffee, bacon egg and cheese sandwiches, and other sandwiches. They all said it was not good either and did not finish eating/drinking their things. They spent over $20 each on their drink and food which is very expensive for a meal that’s barely edible. The girls working were very nice, they were kind and moved fast to keep the line going. I would only recommend this place to people who like dry pastries and bad coffee.

cannot recommend our favorite little cafe enough! everything is handmade and therefore DELICIOUS. the owners put their heart and soul into every piece of food and drink they make. Bear's Cup has quickly become a staple for our family, we can't go a weekend without it! there's a line down the block for a reason... they are truly the best of the best! 10/10 every time!!

Have been wanting to try Bears Cup since they opened. We finally had time to get up north for a weekend this summer and grab breakfast. We got breakfast sandwiches coffee and my daughter convinced us to try a pastry! The coffees were great, the bagels were awesome but let me just say that pastry was out of this world good! We all kept asking her to share more! Needless to say we will be making our way up north again and will definitely be stopping by bears cup for some yummy treats!

Bears Cup is our favorite spot in Bolton Landing!!!! We live in Saratoga Springs and always take advantage of the home deliveries when they offer it to our community. We’ve also stop into their shop every time we go to the lake. The pastries and bagels are out of this world. Literally Insane! I can’t begin to describe how truly amazing the quality of their product really is….but what I can describe is Dani and Louis. They have not only done several home deliveries for our family but they have also catered our Gender Reveal party for our second born baby. They always surprise us with extra treats too! My son gets so excited when we get the chocolate croissants and has become obsessed with them. He won’t eat them from anywhere else. He thinks Louis is a famous baker. A highlight of my son’s life is when Louis took the time to show my son how the chocolate croissants were made. Even let him roll one up!!! Louis became my son’s hero that day! Louis and Dani are stand up people with a true talent for business, marketing, and surely baking! You can’t go to Bolton without stopping by Bears Cup! You will never regret it! You will, however, regret not buying the extra pastries though! Just do it!

Bears Cup is awesome! Hands down best bagels I’ve had (including NYC / NY metro area) and the pastries are mind blowing. Highly recommend!! Don’t be surprised if there’s a line during the busy season — just like there is at your favorite soft serve spot in the summer. But trust me, it’s worth the wait.

We went here for breakfast and it was nothing short of amazing. Witnessing the staff combat a CRAZY long line with nothing but compassion, care, and thoroughness was something that really stood out to us. Our breakfast sandwiches and coffees were absolutely delicious!! A perfect spot, in the heart of the one and only Bolton Landing, NY. Grab your food and drinks and take a stroll through town, I promise it will be a morning you won’t forget for all the right reasons!

I live in GF and anytime I host friends or family, Bear’s Cup is always a priority to share with my loved ones.It’s beyond worth it to me to take the drive not only to indulge in the yummy, from scratch, bagels and baked goods, but to also witness the joy of seeing people I care about enjoying their goodies from Bear’s Cup.Last September my family older sister got married on Lake George and we served boxes upon boxes of Bear’s Cup pastries and bagels to the guests the day after the wedding and everything was a hit among the guests.Bear’s Cup is truly such a special place. It’s evident how hard working the staff is, their level of care, how incredible and consistent quality in their products, and the intention and love that is folded into all of their offerings.

Everything bagel is the best I’ve ever had! Bear’s Cup always puts a fun and yummy twist on the coffee’s they offer throughout the season. Make sure to try their seasonal cream cheese’s too! Line is long but always moves quickly.

We have a family home in Bolton and have been going to Bears Cup since the day they opened, and from that day on have hands down not had a better bagel. So good that we have to stock up for our weeks and winters away! As a “local” we’ll still wait regardless of the line to get our BC bagel fix (also DON’T skip out on the almond croissant). The team at bears cup puts in some serious hours and dedication to make sure locals, tourists, and everyone in between have the most fresh, most delicious morning treats. If you have had the pleasure to meet Danielle and Louis you know they pour their hearts and soul (and time) into this place! Not enough stars for how much we love Bears Cup in our tiny lake town! Pro tip: if they have fresh ciabatta it’s a must for lake sandwiches!

My favorite place to get a lovely cold brew and yummy bagels for the fam... It's how every Saturday/Sunday morning (any day honestly) should go☕️ I love bringing friends here, especially those who have never been to Bolton as seeing their reactions makes everything!! Danielle and Louis are two of the greatest restaurant owners in LG and their hard work and attention to detail is admirable. If you're in bolton, this is a must stop!!!
