Brooklyn Water Bagel makes some of the best bagels around, fresh, chewy, and full of flavor. The coffee is excellent too. My only small gripe is that the cream cheese portions feel a little skimpy, I use to remember it was an inch of cream cheese.

These are really solid bagels for a franchise and some of my favorite around. They aren’t as good as the ones from home, but when I come to Delray, they are my favorite in the extended area. We have tried many flavors from sesame to poppy to whole wheat to everything and no complaints. We received prompt service from the lady at the register.
Jul 9 · Pete DavisWas trying to find a good bagel and not from a stock chain and tried this place. Had a breakfast bagel sandwich and was terrific. The bagels had that dense cakeyness like east coast. There was a couple coffee and creamer choices. Only issue for me was that the coffee was not hot enough to burn you, might be a local law, but I had to put it straight in the microwave.
Aug 30 · Brett SchwartzI have experienced the nastiness of the staff first hand. Unfortunately, they are quip, moody, and just plain mean to customers. For instance, today I ordered the egg salad lunch. I received a bagel, egg salad, lettuce, and tomato. I didn't receive onion. I asked for it. I was told by the cashier "it doesn't come with it". It says on the lighted advertisement in the store, that indeed it comes with it. I tried to tell her. It took a minute of insisting, before she realized the truth. No apology, nothing. I have other issues and actually spoke w the regional manager. He was just asking bad as his staff. Nasty! Not accommodating at all.I go there sparingly, and I would go more but just not comfortable there. I hope your experience is always good......mine is not.
Jul 6 · Sherry MaxineWell, we ordered two bagel sandwiches to go. The sandwiches would have been much better if they had been made to order. The problem lies with us requesting that they be double toasted, but they were barely toasted—more like warmed. I might have understood a little better if we had added more notes for them to be double-toasted. We didn’t have to because there was a specific checkbox for double-toasting the sandwiches. If I hadn’t gotten these to go, I would have sent them back. This issue wasn’t discovered until I got home.The other issue was the pickup system. There wasn’t one. When I walked in, there was a line for people ordering. I did not get in that line, as I had ordered online. I couldn’t find where to pick up the order, and it appeared there were several others in the same dilemma. I finally had to ask a server who was walking by. She was able to locate the order and hand it to me.
