Great bagels, and sandwiches. Full deli, and happy staff. Quick.

My favorite breakfast place I've been going there for years

Been going since it opened in the 70's. Always gets better...

Great bagel. First stop when I get to NYC.

Best deli homemade bagels 😋

Absolutely amazing

very friendly staff and very tasty breakfast) Very large selection of sandwiches. I recommend to visit here🤗

Seems like a hangout for young and old the food is very good my friend and we were passing by and I have eaten here before we both loved the food

Great Bagels, the best in the area. They also have a large assortment of delicious flavored cream cheeses.

Great bagels and friendly staff! Fast delivery time. Only complaint is sometimes they don’t answer the phone at all. It will go to voicemail. I’m assuming they don’t answer because it’s busy at the store but it’s kind of annoying. Otherwise I love this place!!

Great bagels food is always fresh workers are good nice people love the place you can't make everybody happy ignore the bad reviews on happy people i

Good spot to get your BaconEggAndCheese (yes it's one word) as well as a variety of bagels. They make their own bagels. Good ice coffee as well. Also free WiFi if you chose to sit down and eat

Their bagels are delicious and made fresh every day. We usually just get bagels with cream cheese. We're simple folk.

New here and they are very courteous, bagel are awesome

They make the best bialys i ever had. I live in PA now but I always take a dozen home with me. Only problem is parking is terrible, nowhere to park…

Staff is attentive, helped us quickly and most importantly the bagels are good. I go their after church and I'm in and out, no issues.

The quality of the food and service is tremendously good. I always get breakfast here and it’s ALWAYS GOOD. THEY HAVE EVERYTHING !!!

As soon as I walked in I got greeted with a Hello and smiles and the aroma of some fresh breakfast just like it's supposed to be if you want a good bagel shop around town definitely come here the food was great bacon was nice and fully cook and it's packed In here meaning everyone loves it here 😋 😀

I have been getting fresh bagels from this shop for years. I have never been disappointed with the quality and freshness they provide. The prices are reasonable and the folks are so friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend this place if you are around the area.

The bagels are freshly made everyday they are opened. Wednesday’s are the buy a dozen bagels get 6 Free! Service is always given with a smile

Our bagels were delicious and the workers in here were really nice and welcoming!

They have the best bagels in Brooklyn and Staten Island.

When I was pulled here by one of my friends, I was definitely off put by the 3 star reviews. But, she has been to almost every bagel place, so I trusted her. She was right. The bacon egg & cheese bagel was delicious; the workers were really nice when i gave them the wrong amount of money. Also all the food here is incredibly cheap! Very underrated cafe.

this is a wonderful spot for hot & delicious food that's served buffet style. the turn over is quick, so the menu changes. the food you fell for one day may not be the the following day unless you happen to be there at the same time before. there stable dish is plain fried rice & plain noodles. it's always there & always satisfying. except that one time when it wasn't replaced fast enough & i was left scooping the bottom of the pan... ha!! don't get ne wrong, i could have said something or wait for it to be replaced but I was hungry & had a the B-44 S..S.B to catch.

Fresh bagels every morning. Best coffee to go with it. 😀😀😀👍

Great sandwiches...nice selection of içed coffees,....

Its New York Bagels can't go wrong

The food is good people are nice but when people ordering food they should listen properly customer needs. If they dont hear it or understand they should repeat it clearly the orders. Or ask again. I understand that its busy but customer order get properly is very important than get wrong order n loose customer.

**Visited during COVID pandemic Layout/atmosphere *Four tables Food/drink *Egg salad - Good *Everything bagel with cream cheese - good *Garlic herb cream cheese on plain bagel - OK *Chocolate cheesecake muffin - OK *Chocolate chip muffin - good

Changed rating to 4 stars. They now have an "A" reating with DOH. Good bagels, good prices. Love to get my lox and cream cheese here.

Very large bagels cooked fresh daily. Many different flavors to choose from and they make fantastic sandwiches on the bagels or rolls using Boors Head meats. They have tables and chairs inside as well as out. The only problem is parking there is not much of it and the spots in front are metered so be careful if doing a quick run in or those bagel can cost a extra $35.00

Pretty pricey. Cheap on toppings, cream cheese etc.. .

They keep odd hours.

Nice place for bagels

Package lox not a fan

Nice people bagels are good sandwiches are good ,but the roaches cmon you have to do something about them.

Bagels ! Get your bagels if you can find parking. They don't cheap out on the cream cheese. Baked daily and always soft. Muffins are also made on the premise. They don't have daily specials like other bagel stores in the area.

Smh everytime i make an order half of the time they get it wrong! So annoying

Only one person taking orders, i asked for a sesame bagel with butter on both sides and got hardly any butter at all. Bagels r very chewy

Guys at the front were dismissive last couple of times I went. I'll get my bagels elsewhere

It's OK. There are much better bagels in the area but I use this location because of convenience. So the location and ability to sit does raise it one star. Lowered it 2 stars because the guy doing the register is an ##@#!!

Seems the older gent that use to work the register kept this staff on point needs to be cloned. The service seems to come Last unless you are a regular. Respect to the older gent that should be getting free bagels + coffee and has everyone's respect that enters those doors.

I ordered a bagel with eggs but received bacon along with the eggs. While I understand mistakes can happen, I had confirmed my order before taking it. Instead of clarifying, the staff member spoke to the cashier in Spanish without informing me about the addition. Unfortunately, the incorrect order ended up in the trash, which is both disappointing and wasteful.

Food is okay at best. Unfortunately, wait times are out of control— waiting 10 minutes for a bagel with cream cheese, 15 minutes for a bagel with American cheese. Wouldn’t recommend if you have a tight lunch break. I’ve had multiple orders come out wrong and/or overcooked. Not the best spot. Hopefully management can step up and make the bagel shop a better place.

Never answer the phone

The guy who made my sandwich was so rude and didn't wear gloves. I will NOT go there ever again.

Every time I go price change the workers always have an attitude they get mad at me when they make a mistake.

In my view they are dirty during this pandemic i recently heard coughing into the masks when I passed by Saturday.

This bagel place is the nasty flies on the bagel and the workers are very disrespectful

These people are disrespectful and their food isn't even that good

Went in for a sandwich. Held the door for this rude curmudgeon from my building. Got to the counter. Waited. Waited. Waited. Guy came out and took the $1 coffee order from the curmudgeon before acknowledging that I had been patiently waiting. I said “Hey I got here first” and the guy say “Bye!” All sarcastic with an exaggerated wave and everything. I have to say I’m a bit shocked about the behavior. You just lost a LONG time customer. EDITING to respond to your response: So you have no control over the behavior of YOUR staff that skipped serving me and sarcastically waved and told me “bye”? That was YOUR staff member who’s behavior was shocking. That was YOUR store’s reputation manager that morning. Although, considering your response to my review, that is the attitude with which YOU run YOUR business. Thank you for cementing my decision.

Last year I got a bagel with egg salad from this place. Bagel was ok, but egg salad was spoiled; I took one bite and it went right to the garbage. Today I decided to give them another chance. Went in, made an order, waited for about 20 minutes. Came up to then and asked how long should I wait for my order, they told me to wait till they check. I had to wait again for few minutes, just to hear them say " Sorry, we gave your order to someone else. So what did you want?" I just left. Went to BAGEL BOY, very busy place, and my order was ready in 5 Minutes with a great service and a smile on their face.

Ive given this place way too many chances. And I am sad to say, my husband and I have FINALLY had enough. I am not going to list all the negative experiences we have had, as we've had so many it would sound like a lie and go unnoticed. Instead, I hope this review reaches the RIGHT person to make a change. When you hier a receptionist, in this particular case"phone girl", know that she or he are the voice and face of your business. Her personality directly reflects the operation of your business. As a customer....and human being, I don't appreciate being spoken down to, and made feel as if my food is now in the hands of someone who can now contaminate it because you've pissed her off. (Not saying that anyone WOULD, but who am I to know) There is absolutely no communication between the girl who takes the phone calls and the guys who make the food. What's even worse is, when you order something, and the store is all OUT of a specific item, they will deliver the food to you and not let you know the item is missing... Leaving you wondering if you were charged for this missing item, because they "forget" you're receipt. The food seems fine. Quality. Quantity. Price. It's all fine. It's the only thing that's kept us as customers for so long. The energy just simply sucks. Too many times I have seen customers storm into the store with raised voices and complaints of missing items and rude customer service. So I know it's not just me. I have also witnessed altercations between employees and customers that's made me so uncomfortable I've had to leave fearing a fight would occur. Maybe the employees are underpaid or treated unfairly?Maybe managenent needs to change. Whatever it is, SOMETHING needs to happen. Respect each other and be kind. There's no reason to treat each other so poorly. It only makes you suffer more. ❤️ Be well. Good luck.

Worst bagel shop I’ve ever been too they never listen … very lazy and workers have poor service wouldn’t recommend. The egg bagels weren’t even real they your yellow food colored plain bagels

Disgusting 🤢 food, nasty employees. Don’t waste your time or money at this place. Literally every order placed was made incorrectly and were talking simple breakfast sandwiches. Nothing fancy and it’s simply because they don’t care. Bacon is beyond burnt and can’t be consumed. Every time we order from them, what a waste of money.

I was a regular customer they made me wait 45 minutes to see if deliver left he stated theres only 3 of us here then said hold on while he went too speak too his coworker then the phone went dead called back went too voice mail rude and disrespectful i wonder if owner is present on a daily basis and knows what goes on with his buisness his reviews speak for them self original owner treated people with respect smh

The food is great however customer service is lousy change your staff get some people who speak English Fabian is the worst, no manners none whatsoever he is super rude

Such a disappointment, they used to be good. Service stinks now and try calling they never answer the phone. I walked over and ordered 4 coffees, the guy who made it can't follow instructions. Then was rude with me, I'm done and will take my business elsewhere.

Don't think this place is all that good. Every time I order here my order is wrong. I just asked for one egg on my bagel, but still got like 3 and there were tomatos in it. I'm gonna go to Bionic on Nostrand from now on.

Placed 2 pick up orders. didn’t make either. got nasty when we told them about it. Wouldn't recommend staff is rude

Disappointed place ,disgusting bagels taste old no flavor always burn the bagels they always make a mistake on the order you got one guy on the counter it’s always empty and always make the wrong order and rude workers with no respect

The help don't speak English well enough to take my order right and over all it just seems like no one knew what they where really doing including the owner. Nevr coming here again. Extremely disappointed.

So, I've never actually eaten here but after seeing the way the food is treated I never would. Maybe it's just me but when you're storing your uncooked bagels near an open door off a street (that has construction work, dust and other debris flying around on it) less than 5 feet from a dumpster i personally begin to question the cleanliness of the workers as well as the food. I wouldn't even trust the coffee. Too bad.

Ordered 2 bagels both with scallion cream cheese waited 20 mins until I finally grew impatient and asked what’s the hold up. They said my order had been ready, I asked why no one said anything and was told “I don’t know”…. I was also in a rush so I was pretty upset at that. I get home to find out they did not even use scallion cream cheese (but charged me for it). Not good. I went here despite their horrible rating. This spot needs management bad.

I make reviews on a lot of places but this place is trash I was so mad I had to wait till I got on break 3 hours later as a courier I'm all over the place how do you call yourself a bagel place and your bagels I know is probably left over from the other day I felt like I was chewing into thin rubber when is moist in the middle I order two cinnamon raisin bagel with butter only good thing was the butter for $5.50 waste of money had to throw the other one away

Ordered 2 sandwiches. First one asked for bacon egg and cheese, sunny side up. They gave me scrambled with hot sauce that I did not ask for. Second one had what looked like a wad of hair. They said it was a piece of their equipment. Slightly less disgusting, but still should not be on your food. I should have walked out right away. The place is a mess.

I came here one morning to pick up my order, I called ahead, my order wasn't ready, the Man at the counter was rude. My bagel was burnt, complete waste of time and money. I definitely won't go back.

Prices are crazy high for bagels. Flour and water are the most profitable items to sell. Not worth the high prices. Maybe they need English speaking help too. Never again.

Workers taking orders are disrespectful to customers. Went for breakfast on Sunday 06/06/21 ordered a Swiss Cheese Omelet plate posted at $5.25 and large regular coffee posted at $2.20. Was told the cost was $8.70. The worker took my debit card and adjusted the cost down to $7.70. He then proceeded to tell me never come back again. Unheard of behavior addressing a customer for overcharging. I have been going to the store for more than 3 years and have spent in that time $1,500+. Also, I always throw money in the tip jar. With this behavior it may be best to take my business elsewhere. Would invite a discussion with the owner.

Sometimes they are good other times my order is completely wrong. When I am in a rush for work I can't go back. Honestly after last time, when the counter guy heard my order and repeated it to me and it still came out wrong, I can't be bothered. Cream cheese and butter are 2 different spreads. Also when you burn a bagel scraping it with a knife doesn't make it unburnt.

The location is convenient . The bagels are ok. But staff is so rude on the top they are always making mistakes with the order . Today I come at 6:10 in the morning to get any bagels . Nothing was ready yet . Drove couple blocks to Gerritsen Bagel . They had all kind of bagels already fresh from the oven . Taste you can not even compare it . And most important no miserable staff .
