Carrie GDecember 2, 2013One of the best bacon, egg, and cheese sandwiches I've ever had. Also, the French Toast bagel is outstanding ;-)
Delicious bagels, but double-check that they gave you the right order. On busy weekends, it's pretty common to get handed the wrong bagel.
Still the best bagel I’ve found anywhere in NYC, and therefore anywhere
Lucu ChalmetonMarch 21, 2012One of the best bagels in town! Fresher baked with all kinds of cream cheese, ham, salmon...yum! Be careful of the longline
Jeannine SeidlAugust 7, 2014The Mac and cheese bagel is nothing short of a holy experience. Add bacon. But really, you should always add bacon.
Ignored by many "best of" lists and I'm not sure. As good or better than Murray's, Absolute or Balthazar.
Dan HebertSeptember 5, 2017Insanely good bagels! If you want simple/classic, stick to a bagel with smoked fish and cream cheese
Order this: sausage, egg, and cheese on a toasted everything bagel with hot sauce. You're welcome.
Pelin Güvenç KefelMarch 22, 2016Their bagel sandwiches are reaaaally good, but be prepared to wait in line for a while because it gets really crowded
Bagels are delicious, fresh, and there are a multitude of options for "toppings." Definitely worth the wait
For all the non-dairy/vegans out there. Get the whole wheat bagel with tofu cream cheese. It's AMAZING
Don't be intimidated by the line. Even out the door you'll be through in 20m. Cash only.
This place makes such great bagels. Get there early on the weekends to beet the crowd
Lino Di MaioDecember 31, 2016Great place to have breakfast. Bacon cream cheese absolutely delicious.
The line will likely be long, but their egg sandwiches are worth it. Solid coffee too.
Davon ApplewhiteApril 7, 2013Try the French toast bagels, or sample the cream cheese only place in NY that has cookie dough cream cheese.- Christopher PJanuary 21, 2012This weekend at TSB the Spicy Tuna Bagel will be unleashed! Sushi grade yellowfin with fresh wasabi cream cheese. No, we ain't playin' games over here!
My thing: everything bagel with tuna and cheese. For some reason, I really like the coffee they give me.
Sofia BurtonAugust 2, 2017Try the scallion cream cheese. It tastes flavorful and they don't skimp out on the scallion
They sometimes have cinnamon rolls, but stick with the bagels
Great bagels. Cash only. Expect to wait about 20m on a weekend, but totally worth it!
Hands-down best bagel I've had in my life. WW everything + ANY cream cheese. Do it. (Ca$h only tho.)
Dave KaplanAugust 18, 2013This is a real bagel shop unlike Everything Bagels! Sometimes quality us worth the walk!
Jake FochettaFebruary 23, 2013Solid bagels and sandwiches. Hits the spot on Saturday/Sunday mornings. Good chocolate milk too.
Nicole StahleckerDecember 2, 2015Good gluten free bagel but not the best in New York. Great tofu spreads- Christopher PNovember 8, 2013THIS WEEKEND AT TSB: HOME MADE HOT APPLE CIDER. SPRINKLE COOKIE CREAM CHEESE. HOUSE CURED GRAV LOX
Tash KouriJanuary 26, 2013We always get French Toast Bagel with Choco Chip Cream Cheese and Blueberry with Blueberry. So good!!!
Don't be discouraged by the long lines. They move fast. Besides, where you gotta be?
Germán VentrigliaJuly 7, 2013Cranberry walnut chicken salad on a pumpernickel bagel. Boylan black cherry soda.
These are my favorite bagels. Great choice for a casual breakfast.- It's no longer cash only, they started accepting credit cards this year 🎉
Amanda TheilerMay 15, 2015try a bagel with Birthday cake cream cheese or Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough cream cheese $3.85
Jonathan ZuckerbrodAugust 7, 2014Crazy line on weekends but always worth the wait. Try to go off-peak hours
katie mMarch 17, 2014Don't be fooled if there's no one in line ahead of you- it will still take absurdly long to get your order and it will most likely be wrong. The food is good but they need to get their act together.- Christopher PDecember 24, 2011The bagels have now been perfected. Deep brown, perfect crust , chewy doughy inside. Try one with wasabi cream cheese and fresh Nova!
Courtney FlintJune 22, 2013They have gluten-free bagels (udi's brand) - they're expensive, but sometimes it's worth the splurge.
AnnaNovember 5, 2014Bacon egg and cheese on a french toast bagel or an Elvis on a whole wheat everything 👌
Try the jalapeño cheddar cream cheese-- perfect balance of salty and spicy.
