My neighbor raved how good this place was. She said it's the best bagels in the area. The everything bagel didn't have much "everything" on it and they are stingy with the cream cheese. For the price I paid, I expected more than a dry bagel with little cream cheese. I got the lox cream cheese too. They put a schmear of cream cheese on the bagel and charged me almost $10. There are definitely better bagel places in the area.

Great selection of bagel and cream cheese. Good service and lot of vegetarian options. Good for sit and eat place with very nice environment.Great taste and soft bagels. We tried many bagels and creams. All wee super delicious!Favourite was jalapeño cream, strawberry cream, everything bagel and bagel with raisins
Mar 27 · Rohit PrabhakarOutstanding food. The seasoning on the bagels is on point, the cold cuts are all Boars Head and sliced just so. The pickles are some of the best pickles I've ever tasted, and the portion sizes are extremely generous. Staff is friendly too. Strongly recommend trying this place.
Jul 20 · Alexis SmithThe food, service and atmosphere here are all top notch! The employees are always friendly and do a great job. I’ve never had a long wait to get my order even when it’s very busy. They have computer kiosks which is a huge plus if the line to order backs up or you just don’t feel like human interaction. Most importantly, the food is legitimately delicious and the portions are pretty good. You won’t leave hungry.They’re on the pricier side but that’s not unusual for the area. If you dine in, there’s plenty of room to sit down. Everything is very clean including the bathrooms (so important since that’s easily overlooked!)So why not 5 stars? Their hours! They don’t open until 7:30am. That’s really late for a business that sells itself as a breakfast place. This place would make a killing if they opened earlier to cater to the early morning work crowd. I’ve had to bypass this place for their competition a 2 minute drive down the road, which is also very worth checking out.
Jul 1 · Jennifer BRandomly stopped for lunch on our way south to Maryland from upstate NY Food was awesome and the owner, Orlando, treated us like friends, and made the extra effort to get the cheesesteak and tuna melt just right. We lived 20 years in NJ before moving up to NY and we honestly MISS authentic, NEW JERSEY HOSPITALITY! Don’t let anyone tell you Jersey folks aren’t kind. Orlando was warm, friendly and proud of his business. Thanks for the bagels, Orlando!
