Best Beagle in NYC, lot of beagle and creem cheese choice, plus there is a nice little park next to it

Quaint bagel shop in the village. I've been going my entire life, best bagel shop you can go to. They have fast service and ive never had an order messed up. Great bagels and great breakfast sandwiches. I highly recommend getting the apple cream cheese spread on your bagel.

The staff here is amazing! The team moves so fast and they are so polite/friendly. They always complete my order quickly and it is always delicious. Love this place and I look forward to my order!

Let's go, let's go. If you are in the Village, West 4th street train stop, walk 1 block to Carmine street and bam! Bagels on the square is your place to check out. Great customer service, great bagels, eggs, coffee, etc. Definitely makes mornings a little better. But hey, don't take my word for it, check it out yourselves. If not, more for me, lol. Peace.

Good fast food bagels at a great price! Love the folks who work here. Also surprisingly good iced coffee!

Great, fresh and affordable bagels. The staff is quick and really nice. They put some basil in their sun dried tomato cream cheese, which is a nice touch, and the scallion bacon cream cheese is to die for.

Bought some bagel sandwiches here to take to Laguardia for our wait and a dozen for home. I got the lox & schmear on everything and I couldn't desire anything more. The dozen we brought home were still great after a long flight and we noshed on the deliciousness for many days after.

Wow! Ordered catering for an event celebrating Nurse’s Week and it was AMAZING. Everything was so beautifully presented, fresh, and delicious. We received so many compliments I will not be getting breakfast catering from anywhere else! Would give 10 stars if I could. And to whatever gentleman was behind the counter on May 6th—you’re the best! Thanks for all of your help!

Cutest iced coffee! The guys who work here are really sweet

One of the best bagels I’ve ever tried.

Just a good solid bagel. Everything bagel with scallion cream cheese was top notch.

Great bagels and quick service. We got scallion tofu with lox and everything tasted very fresh!

My first taste of bagels in New York and I’m glad it was here. Had an everything bagel with schmear and it was amazing.

Tasty, french and affordable.

I ordered a dozen bagels with 2 different type of lox for my friends' family , and they said its the best they ever had in the city , they package it very good and it stayed very well for the trip, the staff is extremely helpful and will advice you as well. It's definitely a place to check out and get your bagels . Highly recommended.

Not your typical bagel place in NY, this place is simply amazing. I thought I had a favorite bagel place until I found Bagels on the square, so much flavor in those bagels especially the fired chicken ones!! Customers service is a cherry on top as well.

This was already my go-to bagel spot in New York, but my latest experience just affirmed this place being the best! The business operating hours were wrong on Seamless (fixed now!), so I unkowingly placed an order 30 minutes before the actual closing time for three dozen bagels. They shortly thereafter called me to tell me they needed extra time to finish bake them fresh! I was so shocked they even accepted the order--I would have totally understood if they cancelled or only gave me the leftover stock for the day. When I picked them up they were so so nice and told me it was no problem, even though it kept them several minutes after close. Thanks so much BotS!

Probably the best bagels in Manhattan. I come here over the multitude of choices, because they are friendly, the bagels are amazing, the selection of cream cheeses is extensive and tasty, and the park across the street is a pleasant place to eat the bagel. Overall a 5 star experience.

Probably the best quick breakfast spot IMO. The people that work here are crazy fast and super friendly. They're also open 24 hours which is insane dedication. One thing I think they could improve, like I've seen other people say, they have cut down on the amount of cream cheese you do get which is a bummer if you're paying $3.00+ for a bagel. But besides that, I have no complaints. Their blueberry cream cheese has got to be the best.

My favorite local bagel shop! The bagels are delicious and the perfect texture, and to top it off, they make incredible bagel sandwiches. My all time favorite is the egg everything bagel, and I live for their sausage egg & cheese. Highly recommend!

Favorite bagel spot in NYC! Exactly what you’d expect from a bagel shop, pretty typical bagels and fillings, but the perfect spot for when you want the classic/expected taste of a New York bagel/bec. Pricing is reasonable, esp compared to specialty bagel spots like Murray’s and Leo’s.

Food was absolutely the best I've had in NYC so far, so delicious and the staff was very patient and nice!

I go here all the time. Not only are the bagels so delish (order the sourdough one it’s amazing). But the vibe is just so great. They’re always laughing and joking with each other. When the preparer is done with a sandwich, he wraps it up and just tosses it to the guy on the register. They are super efficient but also super fun. They make me feel like they’re happy to be dealing with me even when they’re super busy.

Old school NYC bagel spot in the heart of the West Village with interesting flavors of top quality bagels, with lots of vegan cream cheese options! I heard the sun dried tomato tofu was excellent, so I tried that on an herbed sourdough bagel-great combination. Service was friendly and extremely fast. $3.50 for an excellent breakfast and/or lunch. All major credit cards accepted.

One of the softest, airiest bagels I’ve ever had. So surprising. I had a sesame with lox spread. It was light and fluffy and perfectly toasted. Great flavor and at the best price I’ve found in the city!

Go! Go! Go! This breakfast sandwich was as big as my head! It was amazing! Whenever I am in the city, I always have to enjoy the bagels (YES, the water makes NYC bagels taste better)... The counter staff is fast and efficient!

The bagel tofu and vegetables was so good!! And everyone was nice inside, thanks for the experience. I will come back with some of my friends!

Ordered a bagel with jalapeño cream cheese filling, and it was amazing. Just a little over $4, and plenty big. Highly recommend.

Fantastic bagels. Not a whole lot more to say? Very fresh and soft. Great spread.

Absolutely amazing and probably the best breakfast bagel I ever had. Great service, stunning food

Part of our food tour and the bagel is amazing!

Delicious bagels and quick service! Everything and egg everything bagels are so good! The lox on egg everything was exactly what I look for in an NYC lox bagel!

So back in the day, that being 1983-84, I used to live across the road on Minetta St in a room off the landlord's apartment, which came with a bed a fridge and a kettle and that was it. So a bagel & cream cheese at this place became my morning filler until lunchtime. Great to see its still going strong, assuming the same crew? They should give lessons to the 'get-rich-quick' crowd on business longevity in addition, if y'ask me! Back home in Dublin, Ireland, I have searched for anything resembling my beloved onion bagels in vain; nothing comes close :-(

They just re-opened. The place looks amazing and the food tastes just as good! Quick service and very reasonable prices given its high quality food and coffee. My favorite bagel shop in Manhattan.

The cream cheese with bacon and scallions was literally the best thing I’ve ever eaten. Best bagel and great price

Sometimes I’m taking a leisurely stroll around the village and I need a bagel cause I’m gonna sit down with it at the park across the street and take my time with the bagel and coffee may be a copy of the New York Times. This is the best place. Other times when I’m on the run trying to catch the train before work I need to get a bagel and this place delivers fast. They have a great warm fresh chewy juicy bagels with excellent selections of cream cheeses. They have one of the best selections of tofu-based cream cheeses in the city great for us dairy free folks highly recommend.

Stephanie Neel

If you love crispy bagel with soft texture on the inside, this place delivers that. I don't wanna compare, but this is legit and better than another down the block which is more popular.

Daniel James

Great prices and fresh unique cream cheese option. 2 bagels and 2 drinks was only $10. The sun dried tomato cream cheese was unique and tasty. Not my favorite but very unique.

Erica Brown

Great bagels. They have tofu cream cheese as well and I was really impressed!

Dante Pecchia

Nice exciting spot, pricey but quality is good.

Andi Sutter

Delicious bagels in the village! Plus vegan cream cheese options!

Meghan Sherman

Delicious bagels - came here after seeing the giant lines at Leon’s and similar and there was no line. Bagels and cream cheese were great! Highly recommend

Ashante Greenlee

I have been to this place every time I've been to NY, and I have a huge smile on my face going here. The service is fast, they have tons of options and the cream cheese spread is bar none the best combos I've seen. I'm sure there are other spots in and around NY that are each buroughs favorites, but this is mine when I'm visiting. There is also a quaint little park across the street if you don't mind sharing your bread with a few friendly pigeons and birds.

Wall Fish

Always an early morning reliable bite in the go. The bacon egg and cheese on croissant is made in what feels like seconds and the people working are extremely friendly. The bagels are great too. There are a few seats inside and plenty of seating at nearby square.

Andrew dela Serna

Best bagels in New York, hands down! Had a bagel with pastrami salmon, cream cheese, capers and tomatoes. Too good!!

Pedro Jose Castro

I read mixed reviews but man my experience was so good! Food was great, the iced coffee packaging was very impressive. I did a pick up order and food was ready in lees than 10 minutes! I am coming back here!

Leya Hartman

My favorite bagel in nyc so far! Got an everything bagel with lox spread and the lox was super savory and the bagel was soft and garlicky. Yummmm

Melissa Falco-Diaz

Great place. Good was delicious, service was on point; definitely recommend this location for a quick bite to eat.

Neha Vl

The bagels from this restaurant are amazing! Everything bagel with cream cheese or tofu cheese is our favourite. There is very limited seating here so we love to go to the park across the street and have the bagel.

Taylor Snipes

Quick, fast, and reliable. This place may sometimes have a line but it’s goes quick. They have some of the biggest bagels in Manhattan and I love it. The bacon, egg, and cheese on an everything bagel add ketchup is the move! There’s also a ton of muffins and even some cookies. Perfect for a quick breakfast on the go.

roma mangwani

Amazing toasted bagels, lots of options to choose from. Vegan cream cheese options available as well...

+1

THESE GUYS ARE AMAZING!! I get breakfast from them pretty frequently. Their western omelet on a roll reminds me of my childhood. They've got a large selection of specialty cream cheeses and different kinds of bagels. With hot sandwiches also on their menu you are sure to find somwthing you like

An amazing choice for breakfast. I had the sausage egg cheese and the bagel was fresh and tasty. My only problem was the queuing/payment system, it was a bit chaotic and confusing. Also, it can be overwhelming for first-time costumers. I would have it again.

My faaaaaavorite place to come get a toasted bagel with cream cheese!!! They have a ton of different flavors, savory and sweet. my favorite is the blueberry cream cheese. I just wish they toasted the bagels differently so that they didn't bubble... But still my favorite and still delicious

the place is very simple and it does not look like the kind of restaurant where you would seat, so grab your bagel and go out to the square! The whole wheat bagel with the walnuts cream is amazing, but you can not go wrong with the classic egg bagels!

Good and fresh (but not amazing) bagels. A good choice for bagels in the area, good for a local spot but nothing to go out of your way for. No seating, bad coffee. Eat in father demo square across the street and people watch.

a solid bacon egg and cheese sandwich and tunafish sandwich. I had both on onion bagels that were the perfect temperature and consistency: just the right amount of bite for the chew. Tompkins Square is across Carmine St too for some munching with the pigeons on a nice little park bench! Service is quick; it's a modest establishment, yet all the best ones are!

A good place to stop off at for a quick morning top-off, with an impressive variety of cream cheeses; also reasonably priced.

Very good bagels and spreads. Nice breakfast menu that even has burritos! Great customer service and fair prices. Very solid place. Update: Had a BEC on toasted roll today that was so good. Starting to warm up to this place.

Is a bagel 🥯 w/ cream cheese a viable substitute for pizza? Yes, especially when you realize it's cash-only at the over-hyped Joe's Pizza next door. Veggie cream cheese on a poppy bagel is a refreshing combination. Sorry for not including a picture; I think a tourist seeking directions to Washington Square interrupted me before I took the shot.

Bagels are amazing esp the bagel and egg sandwiches. Be careful about the pricing though for cream cheeses, they’re severely overpriced! Otherwise, food is great and service is fast and friendly

Great little bagel place by the square. How do you stand out as a bagel place? They toast the bagels just right, have great cream cheese (I really like the lox one), and they make the bagels fresh. Prices are OK. The taste is great. Unfortunately they don't have any places to sit, they're pretty busy, and they also don't offer any extras. Like you have to pay to get a large bag. Pretty good bagel spot.

Delicious peanut butter and jam bagel (cinnamon and raisin) and OK salmon and cheese bagel. Good service.

Victoria van Heerden

These bagels are light and fluffy – a nice break from often dense and doughy at other bagel stops! Would recommend the scallion cream cheese on an everything bagel! There is also a lovely square just outside the store to enjoy your bagel!

Alison Pouw

good bagels but not the best in the city. cheapest i’ve found for bagel and schmear. got my classic egg everything with tofu cream cheese - bagel was doughy but not crispy enough and cream cheese wasn’t as smooth as i like. still a quality bagel but not my top.

Yasmine Rayyis

Very decent. Not a life changing bagel but hits the spot. They have a nice variety to choose from and service is very quick.

I ordered one dozen cinamon raisin bagels plus 6 French toast bagels to go. When packing the bagels at my place, I realized that 2 Cinamon/raisin where missing, and I had no time to go back to the shop. Too bad for me. To be honest, that is the first time that happpens to me.

Eh. Mediocre bready bagel. Kind of like a oversized Lender’s you’d buy at a grocery. Not terrible , but I’ve also had far superior bagels at the Jersey shore (...shots fired). The price and bacon earned it one extra star.

Heard a lot of hype, absolutely no idea why. Just a very average bagel. In no way shape or form bad, but definitely far from special!

I used to love bagels on the square, but it seems like recently the quality and service has been slipping. They regularly get orders wrong, and the bagels are not very fresh and even border on stale. I won't be going back for awhile.

The food here is very average. I am disappointed more than satisfied. It is near the subway and I order online via perkchops which is why I tend to reorder.

Would be 4 stars since the bagel was ok but no seeds on the bottom half is a cardinal sin so -1 star for that

Food is decent, staff is nice enough but they definitely try and scam people. Prices are already high enough and I went to this place 3 times over the course of 2 weeks and it was a different price every single time even though I got the same exact thing. Be careful at the register make sure everything is correct before paying. I will not be going back.

The food is good but feel like every month their prices change. I normally get 2 sandwiches used to cost me 11-12 bucks depending on the time. Then went up to 13-14. Went in this morning and they charged me 16 bucks. Good people though. But if you want bang for your buck. There’s deli at every corner and the one in bleecker across the street from the school is more bang for your buck with delicious food.

I moved into the apartments directly above this place and went here at least six or seven times before I had to stop. I literally only had one good experience. Every other time they either lost track of my order, which resulted in me waiting for 15-20 minutes, or just straight up got it wrong. Two stars because the bagel they got right was solid. Lots of other good bagel options in the neighborhood - avoid this one if possible.

I never review things but they’ve messed up my cream cheese 3 times now. Today I paid extra for extra cream cheese and it is the lightest amount of cream cheese I’ve ever had on a bagel.

Worst bagel shop/ establishment, they prepare your food without washing there hands or using gloves, after handing money. Also, they would charge you more money for any breakfast sandwhich, before 6:00 am. Over priced dirty establishment. I had to call the department of health, to make a complaint. They don't speak English, and get your order wrong all the time.

They must’ve been on a different planet while I placed my order. For the amount charged getting right is literally the least you could do. Bagels are mediocre at best.

I got a poppyseed lox, tomato, purple onion, and cream cheese. The total cost was $10.25 for the bagel. When I ordered I told them chives in cream cheese . When I told them they gave me regular cream cheese instead of chive cream cheese, they tried to charge me $1 more. That is unacceptable for a bagel to cost $10.25 and not even be made right. They did not offer to correct the situation. Would not recommend.

During my recent visit to NY, I'd gone to pick up a bagel and coffee for a quick breakfast. The girl and boy at the counter were very rude and dismissive. I had just ordered a cheese bagel on coffee. However, people behind me in the queue were being served while I was made to wait. The guy asked me 3 times what I'd ordered. After being served, I asked the girl how to open the coffee cup - she expressed irritation at this simple request - kept muttering Oh God, Oh God. A highly unpleasant experience. The management should train the staff to show some courtesy and explain things to customers from outside the US who may not be familiar with terms on the menu or the structure of the coffee cup.

I went there this past Monday, it was one of the worst bagels in NY I've ever had, the bagel was under baked no chewy crust to speak of, even the cream cheese was not very good. For NY bagels it's not a stop that I would make again.

Booooh! Waited in a crowd on line for over 5 minutes. Got to the register and ordered. She refused my order. Said I had to go to the back of the line and order from the counter man. But all the while I was waiting nobody asked for an order and there is no sign to say order here. Sorry sir, you have to order in the back. So I left, still hungry. Never going there again.

Never got my delivery will never order from again …. Stop using DoorDash use delivery service you actually know smfh

I am a customer since September 2023 until now march 2025, I work next door, when I went to ask just for something I needed and they have it, they refuse to give it me, I told him I will pay for it, he still refuse and said I don’t know how much it cost, I told him I am your customer I always come here, he said “ I know”. I felt humiliated and ashamed, I told him I will give you such and such if money, which is way more than how much it cost, he still refused So, they should know as they know I am there loyal good customer sunday march 9 that I will never come back no matter what?

Scam for tourist The bagels was good but lady at the cash scamed me. I order bagel with peanut butter 3,75$ and bagel with scallion creame cheese 4$ and add salmon to that and I payed 19,33$!!! She didn’t give me receipt, overcharged me and didn’t want to give my money back.

I ordered off grubhub. The employees have zero common sense, ordered a bagel with cream cheese, a turkey sandwich on a bagel, and fries. None of the bagels were toasted or even warm. They gave me ice cold bagels and weren’t apologetic about it very rude nor did they offer to fix the issue. Ended up throwing it all away and wasting my money. On top of that the French fries were soggy ok flavor but soggy af. If I could give zero stars I would.

I have been going here for over 10 years. A bagel that cost $3.50 a few years ago is now $4.50. That is not a problem unless they also reduce the amount of cream cheese to nothing more than a thin skim. The cream cheese used to be piled high. I thought skimping on what must cost them 10 cents worth of cream cheese was a one time mistake so I have been back a few times and it keeps happening. So it's time to move on.

If you have a family; a wife, or a child, do not visit this restaurant. At least 3 of the staff were making inappropriate comments about my daughter and my wife. They clearly did not think anyone on the other side of the counter spoke spanish. For what it’s worth, the bagel was OK.. not the best but not worth the visit with the disgusting comments and thoughts of the men working there. Avoid.

Savannah Wilson

Went here for a small order of soup and heard the employees calling me disgusting comments about my race. They clearly don’t think people understand Spanish. Sad because I’ve been going here for a year. I will not be back. They need to hire better people who respect customers.

Ozgur Seker

NOT recommended, I ordered one onion and one everything bagel with lox spreads on both, the bagels were not fresh that is not daily made. It was left probably over from yesterday. It burned my friends and my stomachs all day. It seems that lox is not fresh as well!
