Excellent NY bagels, and I got somewhat addicted to their whitefish salad for a while. It's been an Upper East Side staple for 25+ years, the long lines in the morning are worth the wait.
Anechka M.August 18, 2016Delicious! Even simple bacon 'n egg bagel tastes like heaven, especially with jalapeño cream cheese 😁 the place has only to-go option but there is a park with benches nearby
ZacharyJuly 18, 2015The toasted sour dough bagel with plain cream cheese was crunchy on the outside and soft of the inside. The slight tartness of the bread complimented the hearty serving of the rich cream cheese.
This is a legit NYC bagel joint. Made fresh on premises, just a counter, be ready to order or you might lose your spot in line! Recommended.
AmateurConciergeMay 25, 2019Solid solid little bag spot that makes the joints fresh on the spot. Jalapeño cheddar with bacon scallion cream cheese...A1
Anna HyclakJuly 14, 2013Best bagels I've had in the city. Fabulous tofu cream cheeses and jalapeño bagels. It's always PACKED and service can be slow, but it's worth the wait!
Thanks to hurricane sandy, I stopped by my neighborhood bagel store and loved their bagels! Their coffee is great too :-) my new favorite is everything wheat bagel- LukeJuly 17, 2017Flat bagels are so hard to find! This place has them, along with a killer selection of spreads and non-flat bagels
Fresh bagels daily. The chicken and egg salad sandwiches on a flagel are my go to!
Yuriy RuskoSeptember 3, 2011Ordered an onion bagel with salmon cream cheese and it was amazing; one of the best I've ever had. The place is worthy of a stop.
Polina WeitzMay 22, 2017Good bagels, and a large variety of cream cheese flavors, spreads and salads
An elite bagel shop. The chicken salad with fresh dill is a showstopper- Saturday morning ritual. Sourdough are amazing and of course the lox capers on everything.
Emily BrueckJune 19, 2013Definitely one of the best bagel places in the city. (Don't expect a friendly good morning greeting though)
Chris CromwellDecember 14, 2014Sourdough or Everything with Lox! (everything bagels come without caraway seeds)
Great bagels but the line can get very long on the weekends.
Everything flagel with butter. Spinach bagel and garlic poppy cream cheese
For the freshest bagel you'll ever have, show up before 7:30am and ask for one still cooling from the oven. If you like your bagels extra soft in the middle, try the sourdough.
Definitely have a wide variety of spreads as well as other breakfast items!!
Best freshest bagels in NYC. Try the sourdough with tuna and bacon
Sara MastersonMay 8, 2011Whole grain bagel, toasted, with low fat walnut raisin cream cheese. Oh my goodness. Heaven.
Their crumbcakes are ridiculously good. Also the low-fat veggie tuna is the best I've had.
