great classic sandwich making deli with some seating!
Great bagels, huge and fresh. I ordered three through uber eats and they were nice enough to give me six. Highly recommended.
Best bagels I’ve had, super fresh! Plus, I ordered a half dozen, and they slipped in an extra 3. Love this place!
Awesome local deli. Good selection on snacks/candy, beverages/soda, and some household products. They make some of the BEST chicken(buffalo) wings and sandwiches.
Great customer service for visiting travelers! The men behind the counter were amazingly helpful and a pleasure to meet with the free samples and the great conversation
Good Milk N Thigs store. I really like the food and products . Better than average stores. Great service and always clean.
Good food good service guy behind counter is very cute
The owner makes the BEST Philly cheesesteaks on the island!! We come in here pretty regularly for lunch and their sandwiches are generous and filling. Solid bagels too. Since changing ownership from Milk n’Things, there’s a much wider and varied selection of produce and other items inside the store. ALSO, they now have the absolute most delicious, authentic Mexican food in a little outpost right outside. There’s a few tables and benches and the vibes are always great. This is a fantastic spot and has definitely become our local go-to deli!!
Very clean inside, been going here for years all the owners have been nice.. Deli food is decent. New fruits offered outside.. be careful thin skinned fruit might taste a little metallic.

Unfriendly staff that ridiculed me for my semi deaf condition, and spoke negatively about me with each other right in front of me! Amazing! Amazingly horrid.
This place makes a good sandwich is always open and has clean and friendly staff.
Friendly staff clean place, decent parking on the sides and back of building
Nice place, people nice, food tasty
Convenient to have an all-night store. Prices are high though.
The bagels are very fresh, and the service is spot on 👍
Staff very friendly well organized store good deli products, decent prices. The only turn off is that when you walk in through the door the first thing you smell is cigarette smoke. If I'm not mistaken you aren't allowed to smoke inside of a store.

Prices on WINDOW SIGN Isn't the true price! My sandwich was 1$ more so 7$ instead of 6$ n was told "the signs r old " ..... Really??? Smh....
VERY salty bagels. A little on the smaller side but they were fresh.
Access for good sandwiches at all hours is great.
Very different from the last time I use 2 come here. The sandwiches were super delicious. No it's like there being cheap with the cold cuts n cheese

Not 100% happy with this service the customer service is lacking could be better food is okay but I wasn't happy with that service
I ordered a bacon egg and cheese sandwich through DoorDash, and I am extremely disappointed with the whole experience. I left specific notes for the store, but it seems like none of them were read. What's the point of having a notes section if they won't even bother reading it? When I received my sandwich, I found out that the roll was old, and the overall taste was underwhelming. I was really looking forward to the new management running the store better, but this one fell short of my expectations. I feel like I wasted my money on this purchase. The whole experience was frustrating, and I feel like the store could have done a better job in preparing my sandwich and following my requests. It's disappointing to receive a subpar sandwich, and I hope that the store takes this feedback seriously and improves their service.

They over charge if they dont know the price of the item it gets manualy charged. they charged me 5$ for a 2$ Dublin donuts iced coffee.
*Now called Brighton Bagels New owners for about a year now it seems. 👎🏼
The beef Patty I received was from Mexico not Jamaica
They advertise that they are open 24 hours, they’re definitely not. Fix your website and correct your hours.
It's a hangout now. And no one knows how to make any sandwiches which are very over priced!! Too many owners... Why constantly selling and buying this place??? Time to move on...so sad...
They suck because they say they're open 24 hours but they're not smh
Reason for the one star is because I had been going through lots with having cancer and felt it hard to even go out. When I finally did, I went there to get a sandwich and I felt so unwelcomed I walked right out. I didn't even eat for a week total and that's all I wanted. Luckily dunk n donuts was open and just went there.
There is this New Mexican restaurant attached to Milk n Things and workers there treat you horribly from ordering food to asking for a simple napkin. They treat you like an annoyance. And the food isn’t that great Do not recommend
$7.99 for a gallon of milk. no wonder their milk is always expired, no one's buying it! gallon of milk is anywhere from $4-$5 in this neighborhood. went up the block instead. deli counter is extremely lacking in quality and service as well.
