What About A Bagel has been one of my go-to spots in Oakhurst, NJ for a while now--and for good…read morereason. Living just around the corner, I've stopped in plenty of times and have never left disappointed. Today was no different. We ordered two pork roll, egg, and cheese sandwiches--one on an everything bagel with salt, pepper, and ketchup, and the other on a plain bagel with no extras. Even though it was pretty busy (as it often is), we only waited about 15 minutes, and the food was piping hot when we picked it up. By the time we got home, it was still hot--something you don't always get, even with short drives. The order was 100% accurate, which I appreciate, especially on busy mornings. The place was buzzing with regulars and weekend traffic, but it was clean and well-kept. The staff was clearly hustling behind the counter, but still managed to stay friendly and upbeat. You can tell they're used to the morning rush, and they handle it with a smile. One thing that always stands out is how happy people seem with their coffee--lots of customers chatting or hanging out with a fresh cup in hand. It's that kind of local energy that makes this spot special. The food is consistent, the atmosphere is welcoming, and it always hits the spot. Whether it's your first visit or your fiftieth, What About A Bagel delivers a solid breakfast experience that keeps you coming back.

The perfect chew to…read moretexture combination, needless to say, is quite the perfect chew, especially when you combine it with your morning Joe. Their everything bagel has no competition, in my opinion. This place is packed to the brim on Saturdays and Sundays and families endlessly crowd this place to enjoy their go-to staple: the bagel. Personally, I very much enjoy their dozen bagels to go as a grab and go for my busy morning commuting to work. (You also get an extra for a dozen) A+ for their sausage or bacon egg or pork roll egg and cheese breakfast sandwiches, which clearly satiate every bit of your morning craving. The owners are also extremely nice and have run an awesome establishment for decades. Great family atmosphere, be sure to stop by and try their brunch selections.

For those not familiar with Rook, they have different flavors on rotation, so you can always try something new!

No matter which location I'm at, the service is always excellent and due to their premeasured coffee formulation, They have it down to a science. I will always get a consistent cup of coffee. Upon entering, you are greeted with a smile and if you're stuck in choosing, the friendly employees can make some excellent suggestions based on what your taste buds are into. People place their order either in person or using Rooks' app. While they don't have chairs and tables for you to sit and sip, it's still a very calm and chill place as you wait for your drink to be prepared. A quick shout-out to all the employees who work there. I am gobsmacked at their talented artistry, both in making a delicious cup of coffee and in their drawings on the cups which can be found on the side.

My husband picked up one dozen bagels this morning - that was my request. I live a good bagel…read more Unfortunately the bagels were SERIOUSLY not fresh. I m might even go so far as to say stale. So hard on the outside that when you go to cut them in half the knife almost slips off the bagel a little bit. Upon hosting it, the flavor was good, but I was disappointed in the solidness of the outside of the Bagels. One other thing is that one dozen bagels and one small container cream cheese cost nearly $32. We will try another place next time. On the plus side, the workers were friendly. The environment in the establishment was good as well. I agree with a previous poster that all they are missing are good Bagels.
