WhenMcDonald’s quietly reintroduced its bagel sandwichesthis year, people were thrilled that the beloved breakfast items had returned.
How would McDonald’s stack up against these two bakery-coffee chains?
Here’s which one is worth the stomach space next to your cup of coffee.

But of the three bagel sandwiches, Dunkin’s came in last.
It looked inviting with egg and sausage about the same size and stretching throughout the bagel.
Also, when cut, the cheese was almost non-existent.

The taste:The bagel was very firm and slightly chewy, but overall dry.
The sausage had a good texture but lacked the spices of the other two.
The sausage was spicier but all agreed that the aioli was just too much.

The chain sure can build a sandwich.
One taster even remarked that the cheese had a subtle sweetness to it.
Overall, this is the one that all of the tasters would get again.

We wanted to try the sandwich to what all the fuss was about.
The sandwich is identical to the sausage offering with a steak patty instead of a sausage patty.
It has the same double layer of cheese and scrambled egg.

The hamburger patty is pure beef, the steak patty has spices and some flavorings.
The texture is also different, a bit looser, and it does work for the bagel sandwich.
The loosely packed steak patty made the bagel softer, the cheese cheesier, and the egg fluffier.
The sandwich was filling, with a delicious savory flavor.
It technically won the taste test up against the other sandwiches.
