This is a little further south than my other spots, but if I want a bagel, this is where I go. most people flock to Absolute Bagels, but those people are idiots. This is a CLASSIC NYC bagel.
AdnaMarch 2, 2016Love the cafe-like environment. There are outlets, wifi and ample seating. Great place to get work done. Flavor shots for your coffee without additional charge.- L. T.October 29, 2015The salads are great! Same price no matter how many toppings you get. Comes with half a bagel! The iced coffee is pretty good too.
AronFebruary 28, 2020They have soup dumplings and bubble tea. You won't smell the restroom; There is no restroom. I thought it would be better because there were a lot of people.
Sandy CampbellSeptember 7, 2013Oatmeal is a big disappointment. The poster by the register shows a big bowl of oatmeal topped with lots of fresh fruit. In reality all of their fruit is frozen from the smoothie bar.- Tasty bagels, free WiFi, and background music that's just grand. It's noisy though, especially with the smoothie machines running.
Steven PastoresOctober 12, 2012Get the #4: chipotle sauce, corned beef and avocados on a bagel. Awesome stuff plus you get a soup with it of your choice- Great breakfast sandwiches, but only before 3pm. I always get bacon, egg, and cheese on a croissant.
Ham, Egg, and Cheese on a toasted Bagel -done right! This isn't your typical street corner breakfast sandwich, this is the perfection of a classic.
Asher Kahn-KrellSeptember 1, 2014Not the fastest place to get breakfast but great food and awesome outdoor seating in the summer.
Zach JonesOctober 14, 2012Really really good white fish salad! Put it on a toasted everything bagel with some onions...amazing
Samara TrillingMay 12, 2013Get a smoothie with strawberries, beets, carrots, blueberries, & oranges. Fruits and veggies were meant to be this delicious.
$0.95 cheese slice of pizza and $1.95 slice with toppings all day Sunday and Monday- Best deal in Manhattan. The also have the BEST bagels in NYC!
Stumptown coffee and a bagel are perfect for doing reading and people-watching (if you can find a free table).
Amazing black & white cookies, but if you want a bagel, better to go to Absolute Bagel five blocks down.
Fernando Jones Machado Corrêa Jr.December 2, 2014Good Place!! Cozy, nice WiFi, cheap and tasty food!- AronFebruary 28, 2020They have soup dumplings and bubble tea but it was just OK. I thought it would be great because there were so many people. You won't smell the restroom; There is no restroom.
Great stumptown coffee, good bagels, and gigantic muffins -- the bran is particularly delicious
Stephen YangAugust 15, 2011Stumptown coffee and delicious egg sandwiches (served until 3pm) on their better than average NY bagel.
If you're not getting a B&W cookie while here, you're doing it all wrong. I'm only trying to help…
prince of ArroganceMay 3, 2014Nice coffee and muffins. But there are a bit dis organized behind the counter
Great for those times you forget how to cook breakfast.
- Sandy CampbellAugust 12, 2011Salad sounds a little expensive, but there are unlimited toppings. Works out pretty well.
Belin Selcen Beydağ-TaşözJuly 14, 2015Breakfast sandwiches are okay, but the place is definitely more expensive than it should be.
Abbie WJuly 7, 2015I've unfortunately had a lot of experience here and the service is consistently rude and slow. Food is fine but not worth it. If you're in a hurry, don't order anything that's not grab and go.
Hilary ParkerNovember 11, 2014Unfriendly to first-timers. I asked for help with a hostess present, and they didn't direct me to the pre-wrapped packs of cookies. When I found them, they acted annoyed that I modified my order.
IvaMay 11, 2010They can never figure out my usual whole wheat slice plus fat free cream cheese order! I keep goin though cuz its lovely.
Aron CohenJuly 31, 2015the bagel spreads are nice. service can be really slow and a not very nice tho.
- Sandy CampbellAugust 12, 2011One of the few places with nice outdoor seating that doesn't require waiter service (McD on 103 is another)
