Wish I could give this place 5 stars because it deserves it. Clean, great staff (yes we tipped cash) great bagels, generous sandwich meat, which is important to me. A real ny bagel sandwich! Only thing- expensive. $40 for two bagel sandwiches, one large water, one coffee and one (not fresh) juice. W😢W

The food has always been amazing. The bagels are outstanding. Best if you can get here early in the morning for a wake up breakfast. The staff is actually very friendly. You can always leave here with a smile. I’ve been searching for a good bagel place for my entire life and haven’t been able to find anything great... Until NOW !!! Love them!

Solid place for a quick bagel or breakfast sandwich. Always clean, friendly and fast.Only reason I took a star off was the Tofu cream cheese. The menu lists both Veggie and Scallion CC but the result is a bunch of raw diced veggies put right on top of the plain tofu CC. Totally understand the desire to provide additional offerings, but Im not sure this qualifies as Veggie Tofu cream cheese. Will be going back, just not for the tofu CC.

The bagels are amazing. They are what all bagels should aspire to be. The sandwiches are so so. Nothing to brag about. Thats why I gave 4 stars instead of 5. The girls up front are always nice. Worth trying.

Years after moving out of town, this bagel shop lives up to my fond memories. Fresh, delicious and super fast. Store was clean and quiet, all employees wearing masks, still a great spot.

New, clean bagel spot opposite NYU medical center. Their bagels, unlike a typical deli’s, are bigger and tastier and come with creamier cheese.

Review β„–12

Best bagel shop in the Kips Bay/Murray Hill neighborhood. The bagels are incredible and the amount of cream cheese they put on your bagel is INSANE. It’s amazing. If you don’t like a lot of cream cheese, you should tell them, because they are very generous with the spread. It’s no extravagant bagel sandwich place like Zucker’s, but they do have a full sandwich menu - and it’s so much more affordable. Skip the line by calling in your bagel on the phone, and it will be ready within 10 mins from when you hang up. Super nice and friendly team that works there and the space always seems very clean. I literally go here every Saturday. The best!!!!

I was in the area so I passed by this bagel spot in the morning and decided to give it a try. Was feeling like an omelette kind of day so I ordered the Western Style Omelette with peppers, cheese, and potatoes. The food was made quick and hot. It tasted great though I did have better. Prices are great and the inside is big enough to sit down and enjoy your food. The interior is not much but you are here for the food not the looks. Staff is very friendly and helpful and they have a variety of food, ranging from bagels to salads to soups. Definitely stopping by again when I pass this place next time!

A great place for quick breakfast. The staff is friendly and they are ready for you to give them a specified order like: Whole wheat bagel with 2 eggs, cheese, & turkey sausage. Also it carries products similar to other NY dellies.

Review β„–28

Stopped in on a Friday afternoon after arriving in the city. The place was packed but the line moved quickly. We had a plain bagel with plain cream cheese and a sausage, egg, and cheese on an everything bagel. Delicious! There a few tables for both sitting and standing, which we were able to grab when another couple left but it seems like most people take it to go or eat right outside standing on the sidewalk. Would definitely go back and try one of the signature sandwiches!

Clean and welcoming, one stop bagel shop for breakfast, lunch, or whenever. They have a case of drinks inside, as well as sandwiches that they make onsite. You order your food at the register, pay for your food, and wait until your number is called for order. Its simple and quick, and the staff are friendly.

We wanted to try an authentic NY bagel so we came to this place and it did not disappoint! Were boring so we got plain bagels toasted with cream cheese but they were perfectly cooked and delicious! Will return next time we are in town!

I get bagels from there every morning and the bagels taste fresh and good. The employees there work very fast and hard making the bagels. There isnt a very long wait at most it could be 5-10 minutes. I love getting a classic New York Bagel from here every morning and hope i can for a very long time. ( :

Great little place! Great options, tastes good, and good customer service. They got one of my kids’ order wrong (unclear communication on the part of my kid) but they quickly and happily made it the way she wanted. And then they brought out a free muffin to apologize.

Easy to see right off of 1st Avenue servicing the Lower East side and the adjoining areas of Manhattan. Parking on the Street is available but it fills up fast especially at night and on the weekends. Clean facilities. Reasonably priced. Nice staff. We will most likely be going back.

What you see is what you get -- and thats exactly what I like about this place! I come here very day and its the service is super quick, the employees are friendly, and the food is always delicious. Highly recommend the breakfast sandwiches, the egg and cheese on an everything bagel is phenomenal! $6 min on card!

Review β„–38

I was so looking for a breakfast place to meet a friend that was coming from out of town. I did my homework looking around for breakfast places on Yelp and made my decision picking this place. In my opinion, I made a great decision!I swear that I just had best and tastiest bagel egg and cheese with sausage I have ever eaten in my life. It was that good.They also have many, many other menu items to choose from. I simply cannot wait to come back and try some of their other selections.The staff could be a little friendlier and smile more but nevertheless I had a very satisfying breakfast.This place is out of my way to go to work but now from time to time, I will make it a point to leave for work earlier so I can grab a bite from here.Oh BTW, the coffee aint too shabby either. :)

Mr, John and the crew are always pleasant to see in the morning when purchasing breakfast/lunch. I love their bagels...made on the premises. The prices are alittle more than average but its because portions are huge. They have a variety of bagels/cream cheeses and pretty much any salad/sandwich you could think of. If they dont have it they will make whatever you want and possibly feature it for the week.

Best local deli for an OG no-frills breakfast bagels in the MH area. Youll never see a line going out the door here (i.e. Ess-A-bagel), but its busy enough to guarantee a fresh coffee & bagels < 24hr old.

I ordered a sandwich and he used the same spatula for that he used to cook the eggs to make my sandwich and when i spoke to jim about it, he got upset. I dont eat eggs and couldve had an allergy to eggs. They need to be mi dful how they cook customers food. The worst part is that he remade my food and he poured a lot of spicy sauce on my food

New England Clam Chowder. ..DO IT!!This place is right by my job. Its my go to spot for breakfast and lunch. They have a wide variety of food choices and everything tastes delicious that I have had thus far. Im totally addicted to their soups though. Theres always a daily choice of about 6 different soups, which change on a regular basis. My personal fav is the New England Clam Chower, Sweet Corn Chowder and the Cream of Chicken soup. But they are all warm goodness in your tummy and you cant go wrong with any choice.During breakfast & lunch hours when its at its busiest I have never had to wait a long time for my food or to pay for my items. The cooks and cashiers are fast and friendly.
