First time here, thoroughly enjoyed it. Eggs Benedict was perfect, as was the tuna bagel. Never tried , but cakes looked tasty. It’s not fast food, everything made from scratch, so we enjoyed a lovely pot of tea whilst we waited. Will definitely return

We visited Tornado Bagel multiple times on our 1-week stay in Kinghorn, both for dining in and takeaway, and we loved absolutely everything we tried there! The coffee was really good, the bagels were fresh and flavourful, and there are many options to choose from. The staff was super friendly and the place itself is very cozy. 100% recommended, we’d return anytime

Lovely service, food was fantastic and coffees were amazing. Stopped in after a beach day with our dog who was promptly greeted with a bowl of water and 2 biscuits!! I had the chicken bagel which was divine and my mother had a slice of their cake which was delicious. Will definitely be back :)

I am doing the fife coastal path with my dog and this coffee is dog friendly. Excellent coffees to go and the toilet has lots of sanitary towels and other stuff which are really resourceful!!! I'll recommend it to anyone.

It's bagels with everything, well there is a menu. We popped in yesterday, me being a person not so keen on bagels and decided to give it a go. I had the breakfast bagel and a flat white. I really enjoyed it. Very wel presented and both members of staff were friendly. The place is dog friendly, and water and treats are given to the four-legged friends.. I would highly recommend. Good food, for a good price.

This place is very unassuming and easy to not notice but when you do pop in it's totally worth it and such a delight. The bagels are more than just bagels, they use really good ingredients and take time to make sure all the flavours are balanced. The Pastrami bagel was delicious and had the perfect mix of crunch and with the crisp fried onion and pickle against the soft and flavoursome pastrami. Definitely pop in if you can as it's very surprising how they've taken something as simple and plain as a bagel and made it something special. The staff were also lovely, the place was really busy but they still made sure we had everything we needed and made polite conversation. The guy was telling us it's his mum's place and she bakes all the cakes etc so please do try as this is a lovely wee family business and the coffee is fantastic as well as the food.

Lovely place to stop and have lunch! I was on a cycle up from Edinburgh, and this was a perfect place to grab coffee and carbs. Really friendly staff, solid portions and silky smooth espresso. Two thumbs up :)
