Incredible selection of bagels and cream cheese. Service is fast and friendly. Prices are really comparable but portion sizes and cream cheese portions are really huge. The flavor and textures of the bagels is better than anywhere. A dozen is actually a bakers dozen so you feel like you are getting an even better deal at the end!
If youre in Rochester and you want a bagel, skip Brueggers and go here (sorry Brueggers) because these are some of the best and most affordable bagels youll get outside of NYC (Id imagine, Ive only visited a few times). Theres a few benches outside, but this is not a dine in restaurant so be prepared to carry out.
Bagels are sooooo good, same with all of their cream cheeses. One of the best non Long Island bagel places I’ve been to. Service was amazing too, the two guys who were working when I went were really great people. Would definitely recommend!
Bagels are top notch and staff friendly. HOWEVER, today, 9/27, An employee took my money and gave me change with gloves and then started to make my bagel with the same gloves. The gloves were also quite stained and dirty. I asked her to change them and she did but she put up a little bit bit of an argument. What’s that all about? Isnt that food service 101?
I hadnt been there in years and I absolutely love their bagels and especially their cheese bagel dogs so I was ecstatic to stop by and grab two today.... Was as great as I remembered ✌️
Best bagels in the area. Love their bagel sticks as well. Seasonal bagel is their pumpkin which was delicious.
Love this place! This is my go-to Friday moring reward after a long week(s) at work. Bagels are amazing and the staff is fantastic.
Amazing bagels and service! I almost turned around for another one
First time trying bagel land today. I got a half dozen bagel for super cheap! Aside from the great price, the bagels are amazing! Very flavorful, great texture and a wide variety to choose from!!! I will definitely be back again. Highly recommended!
Bagels were good, hope the staff get paid a living wage, they deserve it!
As far as bagels go this is one of the best locally. Its a small place bud dont let that keep you away from this place. Their bagels are awesome.
Delicious boiled bagels and fantastic flavored cream cheeses. The orange cranberry is especially yummy.
The tasty bagels and friendly service shall keep me coming back!
The best and least expensive bagels in Rochester. Most places are north of a dollar, but not here. Cream cheese is good lots of flavors to choose from and prices are so reasonable, 5 plus stars
One of the very few local places that is the same as its always been for many years. Hands down the best bagels in the Rochester area - the way they should be - fresh with a crispy crust and tender inside. For a special treat try the pizza bagels - the sauce is outstanding. Id say even worth a special trip. Still the same after all these years!
A little bit of a line, but worth the wait. Fresh authentic Bagels. Small shop but Friendly service
The hot or warm are good, if theyve been around and are room temperature theyre just another bagel.
Good bagels ... been going here for about 40 years. I love the pizza bagels
Simple and good. Friendly staff--I and all the other customers were immediately greeted when we walked in the door.
Bottom line BEST BAGLES in town!! You will not be disappointed!!
The best bagels in Rochester. Always fresh and always delicious, I don’t get my bagels anywhere else!
Simply the best! Great prices always fresh. Love arriving when the open and every bagel is still hot in my bag
We always go to Bagel Land when in Rochester. Best blueberry bagels!
Bagel Land rocks! I go out of my way, often, to get a Bagel Dog; always a unique and delicious treat. They always have a great variety of bagels too. The staff is always friendly and serves your order quickly. Five stars!
The bagels are sooo good. Always fresh.. even in the middle of the day. Light and fluffy deliciousness! :)
Such incredible bagels, best in town for sure. It can be really crowded and wait times can get absurd so choose the right time.
Reminds me of home, great bagels and cream cheese! Love that they open so early
Love Bagel Land. They have the greatest bagels in the city!!
The bagels here are really good and the service is as great. I do recommend trying them out when you want to start your day right.
I love the bagels here, I literally have been eating them since it opened in 1973. The thing I dont like is the lack of organization in the front. It is often staffed with kids which I get but they are rarely quick and smooth. I often stop in just to get bagels and having to wait 10 mins to get 6 bagels sucks..
Great bagels and large selection of spreads. Their fire salt bagel has the perfect amount of spicy kick and saltiness to it. Excellent staff as well. You really cant go wrong here
The best bagel hot dog.
I wrote this review three weeks ago, but Im consolidating all of my reviews under one Google account. A must have for true bagel lovers. You’d barely find it in the plaza but that’s because they are not big box bagels. Every time I have an early morning flight, I swing buy and grab a couple of these. They open early. The best bagels in town.
Nothing in this world better than Bagel Land. The best by far. A traditional stop for us for decades.
Amazing bagels. colin needs a raise. 😀
These bagels are awesome 👍 will buy them again
BEST everything w/ cream cheese I have had. I use to go here all the time in high school and decided to see if they were still just as good. 15yrs later and they are still SOO GOOD!!
Amazing place for bagels.
Other than the wait (which was well worth it) Bagel Land is amazing... with out fail the best bagels in Rochester!
Some of the best bagels in Rochester. Also..... Have to get a pizza bagel and or a beagle dog with cheese. You will love it.
Delicious food and great/friendly staff.
Great bagels & great staff!! colin deserves a raise 😎👍🏼
Best Bialys in the area, I drive from Medina, NY over 1 hour to get them and I dont forget the Jalapeno cream cheese
Best bagels in Rochester. Cucumber dill cream cheese is bomb.
I go here every morning I can found it by pure accident and the best accident Ive ever had theyre so friendly and they always accommodate to the best of their ability highly recommend going there at 4:30 a.m. when they open for the freshest I will continue going there due to the customer service low prices and all around great business
AMAZING BAGELS COLIN IS THE BEST!!😋
Great bagels great service!
Love this place we drive about 20 miles to go here to get bagels
Cheap and delicious. They didnt have lox or any smoked salmon like I was hoping, but their seasoning and cream cheese is great.
Everyone is always super friendly and efficient and theyre some of the best bagels in Rochester!
If you love New York City bagels you will love these bagels. The texture is perfect. So many kinds and all are delicious. The owner and his son make the bagels fresh. I love these bagels. The cream cheese selection is so amazing and delicious. Warning you will be addicted to these delicious bagels they are the real thing.
Great bagels. Great location.They never have salt sticks.
Love their bagels so good 👍
Bagels be bussin. Colin deserves a raise.
Absolutely awesome!! All the cheeses are lovely as well.
Best bagels in Rochester I go there about once a week for a bagel with cream cheese also when it is my turn to get the bagels for work and everyone says how great they are also a big selection of different flavors
Great bagel shop. They have hot dogs with cheese inside a bagel... I highly recommend them. As well as some solid everything bagels.
The best bagels in Rochester bar none!! A bagel you can sink your teeth into, gnaw on the crust and rip apart. Amazing! Well worth the 2 hour drive to get a dozen. I recommend everything and garlic. I hope they would add the Montreal bagel which has the Montreal seasoning on it. That would be the icing on the cake. Bagel land, if youre reading this, consider my suggestion. Why try the rest when you had the best?
Fresh bagels and homemade cream cheese.
Best bagels & theyre definitely not greedy with the cream cheese.
5.00 for a doughy bagel and nasty vegetable cream cueese
Really good and fresh bagels for the price! Simple shop with minimal service... Definitely a local favorite. If youre expecting a typical chain place then theyre around and this is not it.
Fantastic. These folks know what they are doing.
The staff is always friendly and there are a ton of really great options
Classic New York bagels at a reasonable price
Best real bagels in all of Rochester! Line moves fast, family owned local favorite. Go there!:D
Fantastic fresh bagels! Best in town! Service is fast and friendly. Highly recommended.
Envious that there are 2 good bagel shops so close to our friends home so when we were unable to go to one terrific bagel shop off we went Bagel Land in Brighton. There was a line out the door on a fairly early Sunday morning and you could smell the bagels outside of the store. They have a great display of the available bagels and it was still warm from the bagels being baked so you know the bagels are fresh. Very utilitarian with fridges in the back wall with cream cheese (great selection of flavors) and drinks. Some bagel sandwiches also but best to take out since there is nowhere to sit in the shop. Fairly good sized parking lot. Definitely better than what we have in the South.
GREAT BAGELS BUT NO BREAKFAST SANDWICHES ON MENU
Always crispy and delicious 😋
I have been to this shop countless times. The bagels are great. Came in this Saturday morning and the guy at the register looks past me to call the white woman after me. Not crowded, I approached the counter, began to greet him, he points to the woman behind me and says, I can help YOU! Like that, all caps. Please get your staff together. I wont be back.
Brought back memories from my Seton and Mercy Days93. Prices are still the same from 93. Small bagel shop with Big Bagel Flavors. Pizza bagel devoured while driving. The handsome young man that serviced me gets an A++++ for his customer service and patience. Couldnt make up my mind too many choices. I also loved the way he handled the kids coming from school. Keep up the good work Thanks for bringing back memories. Dont change a thing.#BagelLandForever
Best bagels in town, far better than the chain store. Limited hours, but that is why the bagels are always fresh. Family owned business that really cares about the customer. Even day old popped in the microwave are great. Bagels dogs are a special treat! Will go the extra distance to get a dozen.
Single toaster makes the wait long
FIRESALT BAGELS!!!
Best Bialys Ive ever had. No one anywhere comes close to them and Ive been all over. Bruggers never heard of them. Ive been all over the country and no one has these Bialys even close. Cant wait till they reopen !!!
Best bagels in Rochester and an institution. Our family has gotten bagels from them for decades. Far superior tasting than Brueggers and WAY beyond what places like Wegmans and Panera sell.UNFORTUNATELY THEY ARE TEMPORARILY CLOSED BECAUSE OF THE PANDEMIC.
The lady who serviced me was upbeat and serviced me well. The bagel selection was great and the many cream cheese selections as well. I got a everything bagel with veggie cream cheese on one side and chive and onion on the other. I appreciated the accommodation to have that variety. My bagel had the quality bread characteristcs. I only paid 2.50. Was delicious!
A bagel bakery like we had when I was growing up on Long Island many years ago. Just the best bagels around by far. Bakeries used to sell only baked goods, they werent restaurants. If you want a piece of round, soft bread then there are a lot of bagels you can buy. If you want a real old fashioned bagel, this is the best in Rochester or anywhere else I know.
These some good a** bagels
Wide selection of perfect chewy inside, crispy outside bagels. Many specialty cream cheeses as well from a local source (tubs available for purchase). Personally my favorite bagel in Rochester.Coffee is offered but this is primarily a take out business (only seating available is outdoors behind the plaza). At popular times like weekend mornings expect there to be lines out the door (although generally moves pretty quick).
Go Sox
Best bagels in Rochester! Most unique flavors Ive seen. And they have Bagel Dogs. I highly recommend them. Go before 9am and after 4pm to beat the rush.
Great service ! Amazing variety with a smile!
Simply put, the best bagels in Rochester in my humble opinion. Take it from a downstate New Yorker. I promise you wont be disappointed.
Very clean, wonderful bagels...best in the city and Joe and his crew are always very friendly!
Very friendly helpful morning crew. Lots of bagel options and cream cheese options, as well as good coffee. You can stop in for a NYC bagel shop experience for about $5, definitely a place to try!
Was permanently closed / a sign on the door however it was not noted on the website so we drove there for nothing
Good fast service
Very good NYC style bagels, good selection of smears and bagel types. Still mix and matching. Try firesalt with spicy bacon smear or spinach with tomato pesto smear. Combined they taste realy good
Bagel Land has been one of my favorite places since my kids were very young and in the Brighton School District. I hadnt been in awhile, but REALLY wanted to treat myself today. The service was poor. My preference in a bagel is soft, light & chewy. Upon placing my order (clearly annoying the cashier), I asked kindly that my bagel be very lightly toasted (light). The bagel prepared for me was hard, burnt and now in the garbage. I feel as though this was done intentionally.
Great bagels. Only buy what you are going to eat the same day.
Tried to order bagels at 2:45 p.m, they close at 3 p.m., but the two employees said they’d sell us bagels, but not toast them or make sandwiches because they were closing soon. I’m sure turning off the toaster and sweeping the sixteen square foot space takes awhile, but throw me a bone here!
The bagels are crunchy and soft and there are a wide range of tasty cream cheeses.
Been my favorite place for bagels since i was 12. Always great! Just expect a crowd, its a pretty popular place!
A cheese bagel dog mmm so good
Go weekly. Buy 3 assorted bagels. Always fresh and comfortable to NYC quality. Best bagels around.
The best, chewy and light bagels in Roc!! Also, their cream cheese is whipped. Its so, so good!
Best bagels in town.
