Used to be a regular at the Bellmore location and happy to say this place is just as good except doesn't have the extensive selection of coffee creamers to choose from. Great bagels and flagels!
J DiggitiMarch 22, 2015Had a delicious everything bagel w/ eggs ,Swiss ..Free (bad) coffee . nice place for a quick breakfast/brunch (take Starbucks coffee with Ya) or take the sandwich to Starbucks
Fluffy, delicious and gigantic bagels! Friendly staff! Waited longer for my order and he threw in 6 more bagels extra! ❤️
Kathleen ColishOctober 12, 2013Very good bagels. Nice addition to the neighborhood. They have a great system - you get a receipt when you order that you bring down to the cashier to check out. Really efficient.
Efficient and delicious bagel shop, conveniently located in FiDi. Egg everything with scallion cream cheese is my favorite!
Karlsson BanksOctober 20, 2013The service here is incredible for an unassuming bagel spot. They'll prepare your eggs any style and are a friendly bunch. Bagels made on location.
Bagels may not be the first food group that you expect a trainer to recommend, but if you "do the work" you can enjoy the rewards. They're really good here.
I grew up on LI and these bagels speak to the same quality. Best in east FiDi. The help is really friendly however the process needs some work.
Luc DoanDecember 15, 2015Coffee tastes cheap but the bagels are great. I come here to have pre-exam breakfast
Ben GaspariniOctober 30, 2016Pretty solid bagel spot. Jalapeño cream cheese and egg everything are the tops.
Nice bagels, but can you spare us 6 screens of Fox News Channel spewing insanity? Owner must have an axe to grind with Obama.
Best throwback music and also a dancing bagel can't really go wrong here
Fresh, tasty bagels. The manager keeps things running smoothly when he's around. Large seating area & outlets galore :)
After 3pm, there is a 50% discount! I bought 1/2 pound tuna salad for $3.50.
Sara DavarMay 25, 2013Fresh baked bagels, good food, great service and cheap and cheerful! What's not to like here?
Tina JainMarch 23, 2013So many types of spread for bagels here. They also give you XL size to-go containers for your iced coffee.- This place is now called Brody's Catering. New ownership & new look. Food tastes the same. Prices are a little lower.
Quinton MaJanuary 27, 2013Pretty great bagels if you don't want to trek down to Leo's. Took 10 min for my bagel so the manager Tim said my next bfast was on him, so I guess I forgive them...?
Now known as Brody's Bagels and while the staff seems the same the bagels are now hard and nowhere near their prior quality levels.
- Less chaotic since they moved the registers to the back bit still busy on weekends.
Very fast service in the morning. Whole wheat everything bagel is on point.
Best bagels in the city. I grab one on the way to work every morning.
John PaterakisApril 21, 2015The Starbucks of bagel places. They put your name on the order, everything is more expensive than the competition, and the food and coffee are meh.
Cynthia ZMay 30, 2013Said free wifi on yelp, but couldn't connect. Looks like a good connection but my iPhone just loads a blank page in safari and won't go anywhere.
- Closed - but the smaller place that replaced them seems to be trying to do better at just core bagels. We will see.
Long lines in the morning but they move people through pretty fast. Good bagels.
Josh AndersonAugust 12, 2014This is the slowest bagel place I've ever been to in NYC. Truly dysfunctional. Look 18 minutes to get my bagel!
A FAugust 9, 2014Inconsistent bagels from day to day. When they're fresh, they're good. When they aren't, they're average.
- Bagel was good but not my favorite in the area (Leo's) and not worth the rudeness and $$$. ($6 but receipt wasn't itemized so no idea why)
FranciscoAugust 9, 2013Don't eat the tuna! Tastes like ass. It's like an old-dead fish in your mouth.- Another service disaster; no smoked sank in, no everything bagels. And of course they took my money before they told me.

"Amazing scallion cream cheese. Bagels were nice and crispy on the outside, warm and doughy on the inside. Will definitely be back."
