Love this place. Really good bagels, affordable, and the friendliest staff. Definitely check them out.

If you can't make it to Russ and Daughters... One of 11(?) around the city. Fast service and a superb user kiosk. Had the lox and a gluten free custom bagels. Add some coffees and tip and damages were $45. Hey - this is NYC pricing. read more

When in NYC, a bagel is not a want but a need. Being gluten free, I was on the hunt for a GF bagel while in Brooklyn. This spot came up on Yelp. It's small inside and you order through a tablet - very minimal interaction with staff. I got a gluten free everything bagel with sundried tomato cream cheese, bacon, and lettuce. However, the bagel that initially was given to me had no cream cheese, slices of tomato, and did not appear to be gluten free. I took it back to the staff to let them know of the error and double checked to make sure the bagel was gluten free. It wasn't, it was actually whole wheat. Okay, definitely not the same thing. There appeared to be a language barrier between myself and the person making the orders. Although he was very friendly, it was clear to see how something like tomato cream cheese could be confused for just "tomato" and how "gluten free" could get lost in translation, too. The bagel was remade properly and was just OK. I was surprised at how little cream cheese was on the bagel since NYC is known for really slabbing on copious amounts of schmear. That's what makes a NYC bagel so great. Although it's clear effort was put in on behalf of the staff, I wouldn't return here. read more

"Ask the angels who they're calling, Go ask the angels if they're calling to thee" (Patti Smith) There are plenty of human angels in our world. Some of them even own and operate a bagel shop. Since April 2022, Angels Cafe not only opened for business, but also opened its doors to serve the Williamsburg community. They donate 40% of their profits to feed the hungry and sell $10 "Breakfast Blessing Bags" so customers can buy a bagel sandwich and coffee for those in need. How fantastic is that? The store is quite small, with no tables, chairs or booths -just a few benches along two walls at the front of the store. And when you want to order, you won't be talking to anyone, but you'll be punching in your selection and payment at one of three kiosks by the service counter. I ordered a lightly toasted Whole Wheat Everything bagel with jalapeno cream cheese and a coffee and loved my breakfast. The bagel was perfect and the generous spread of green tinted cream cheese had plenty of Jalapeno pieces and a definite "zip" to it. The coffee was strong and dark and delicious. But we did have a glitch after ordering one with sweetener and one without. The attendant brought them to us and said, "I don't know which is which". Ouch!! Otherwise, well done, Angels Café. read more

Fast service, reasonably priced, with a great mission statement. It's a small cafe that uses kiosks to order and it's very user friendly to navigate customizations. The bagels itself are not the greatest tasting in my opinion (I found them quite dense but I enjoyed the cream cheese and filling in my Red Hook sandwich). I do appreciate the variety of specialty sandwiches and combinations like their 2 for 1 deals. Overall not bad but not great either. read more

Liked the fully self ordering process that made ordering very easy. But the bagel was not toasted I think at all--notwithstanding I ordered it toasted. Hot sauce was like a dollar extra lol Got the egg and cheese with light cream cheese. Yummy but way too dense for me. read more

1 hour wait for bagels and coffee (in person not through an app). Didn't start making our food until 40min after ordering, and ran out of everything bagels. Super understaffed. The lox sandwich was also very bad. read more

Tastes very artificial and cheap, and made our stomachs hurt. iPads took my order and the bagels were a bit small. The egg taste like ready-to-go patties and the cheese is equivalent to craft slices. read more

Eat good, do good! Angels Cafe is super cool as they're a mission-driven shop where 40% of the profits go to North Brooklyn Angels to fight food insecurity in the community. They also have a program where you can purchase a meal for someone in need. What we got: - The Lox (Cream cheese, lox, capers, spring mix) Final Thoughts: Love the mission of the shop and they have an extensive menu including vegan and gluten-free options in addition to the classics. Depending on what you get, one of the specialty sandwiches may run you $15-20 so it can get pricey. The shop is also busy so be prepared to wait if you're a walk in during peak hours. read more

Cute little store with solid bagels. One of the main draws is this place is that it's all organic and has vegan options including cream cheeses. This is a small store with option to order on tablets at the front counter. It's nice because you can specify degree of toasting and other characteristics. You can also customize by adding any of the ingredients they offer on the bagels. I tried the everything bagel with scallion cream cheese and it was very good. Up to NYC standards of bagels. Certainly a place to try one morning! I need to edit the review for the best part: this is a mission driven business- some of their profits go to fighting food insecurity. This is the type of business we should all support to create a better world! Thanks for modeling good business ethics! read more

I went on a mission to find bagels and found Angels Cafe in Williamsburg, a to-go spot whose bagels are massive and delicious. I put in my order on the touchscreen, and just before I swiped my card, a helpful employee came rushing around the counter asking me if I had entered the promo code for happy hour. Seeing that I had not (apparently there was a little plastic sign that had been turned around), he entered it for me--a 50% off coupon! My six bagels were $6. All because I happened to come in between (I believe) 3-5PM. Amazing. The bagels were huge, fresh, and had a great chew. The everything bagels are completely covered in seasoning. They also donate 40% of their profits to North Brooklyn Angels to help fight hunger in the community and, twice a week, hold an event where you can buy breakfast for someone else. What a great place! read more

I had a great experience here (twice). The first time I came, I ordered to cortados to go and brought them home. Delicious!. The second time was today when I ordered lunch. I bought the Brooklyn bagel on whole week everything. Your ingredients were fresh as claimed, the service was prompt and friendly, the ordering the super easy because it was digital. When I stumbled, they probably came and helped me finish the order. The bagel itself was very good, probably not the best you could get, but a top quality bagel. I had a whole wheat everything with my sandwich. The whole combination was delicious and I would definitely be back! The 40% donation thing did not sway my decision to come here, but I think it's a noble cause, and I hope they make this a successful location so they can further help for those who need it. I also had the pleasure of meeting one of the owners, Jonathan, who is passionate about the mission. Hope you succeed and grow. read more

What a cute little space! I loved the ordering process as it allowed minimal contact with the staff (although they were eager to answer any questions). The cold brew with oat milk was incredible and probably the best coffee I had my entire stay. My bagel was wonderful and perfect for a long day before visiting Manhattan. Check this place out! read more

New-ish bagel spot I went to instead of standing on line down the street at the one on Bedford. The cafe is small and clean with spots to sit outside and eat or sit on a bench inside and wait. The ordering is on computer systems and is relatively quick. The staff is extremely kind! I personally don't like massive amounts of cream cheese on my bagel so this was perfect for me but if you do maybe ask for extra. Next time I'm back I want to try the fresh juices and one of their Brooklyn style bagels. $8.99 for Brooklyn styles and $3.99 for bagels with cream cheese. read more

This was my first time trying Angels Cafe, and I got a whole wheat everything bagel with tuna, tomato and lettuce. The bagel itself was pretty good, but didn't taste super fresh. There was additional mayonnaise added to the bagel which I wish I had known and would have asked for without. The tuna salad was the best part. This place has pretty good sandwich options and is easy to order online. There were some good deals (like 2 for the price of 1) that maybe I'd take up in the future, but overall it was just ok. read more

It pains me to give this newer spot only 2 stars due to their awesome mission and donation setup but they gotta step up their vegan cream cheese game. I ordered a whole wheat bagel with plain vegan cream cheese, and while the bagel wasn't bad, it's tough a tough market to compete in so I wouldn't call it top tier. The cream cheese likely wasn't tofu based like all the others in the city since it was almost watery and didn't have much integrity to it. I didn't try one of their many signature vegan sandwiches so I'm sure that's where they shine. Prices aren't bad and it's cute and simple inside with an easy iPad ordering system which I appreciated. I may come back to get a bagel sandwich if I'm in the area, but can't recommend a regular bagel and vegan cream cheese combo. read more

Angels Cafe is a self-described "mission-driven organic bagel and coffee shop" that I stumbled upon while on a far less important "mission" of my own to find a better bagel in Williamsburg. The cafe donates 40% of all profits to North Brooklyn Angels, a local non-profit organization that provides food to those in need in the community. That alone was enough to convince me to check them out. The shop offers an impressive variety of bagel sandwiches. There are the standard favorites, such as cream cheese and lox, as well as a range of vegan and gluten-free options. For my first visit, I went with the Williamsburg sandwich on an everything bagel. The Williamsburg is simple, but delicious, containing avocado, cucumber, hummus, and tomato. The avocado was freshly sliced and the hummus was flavorful. The crunch of the cucumber and tomato was a nice contrast to the chewy bagel. And of course, the main attraction - the bagel itself - was an improvement over a bunch of the other shops in the area. I will happily go back to Angels Cafe for another bagel sandwich, especially with the assurance that some of my money is going to a good cause. read more

Great concept and fantastic bagels. Ordering is very convenient as well. Their bagel sandwiches are also unique. Service was fast. read more

This is the first negative review I have ever posted of a restaurant. I ordered the "Sunset Park" bagel sandwich, which comes with "pastrami, swiss cheese, red onions, mustard, and salad". Instead, what I got was a pathetic, soggy bagel with a single measly slice of pastrami and one slice of cheese. Insulting. See my bagel photo for reference, and compare it to the AI-generated image they advertised. $17 post-tax for this morsel of food is damn-near criminal. Do not recommend. read more

On my way to Physical therapy today I peeked into the window at angels cafe and kept walking, then paused and went back in. Something about the vibe sucked me in and I'm sure glad I did. The 2 employees were so down to earth, kind, and passionate about where they were working. I got an everything bagel with the freshest jalapeño cream cheese. Everything was delicious and fresh. I also sampled some honey ginger tea, so delicious and their special owner made brand of this special power berry juice. It was really interesting and just what in needed to feel hydrated on a hot day. The rest of my day was increased in positivity due to my interaction with these fine humans and being nourished with great food and drink. Thank you, I will return again soon! read more

OMG! I'm a born and raised New Yorker so when I tell you this is the best bagel I've ever had, I mean THIS IS THE BEST BAGEL I'VE EVER HAD! Pamela is so sweet and helpful I ordered through the kiosk machine and I chose to have my bagel toasted, I honestly guess I should've just chosen extra toasted so fundamentally this was my fault, but she was able to help my wife and I, remade our bagels and even gave us a delicious red velvet muffin. All in all I love this place. I've gone to Tompkins Square bagels, even Brooklyn Bagels on west 23rd, but to my honest opinion this spot beats them all ‍ read more

Great food and spirit. Amazing juice and coffee. Real people and bagels. With Italian touch.

This tiny little cafe should hardly invoke angels. They are basically taking crazy and totally unnecessary amounts of $$ from their customers. I was charged literally $27 on uber eats for one small Gluten free egg and cheese & ham bagel. Ok I get that an extra charge for GF bagel is fair but the original price was $20. I thought I was going to receive the best egg and cheese bagel of my life. Sadly the sandwich was like any other deli bagel sandwich. So my assessment is that they charge double for their online delivery orders. And indeed, I just looked at their in-store menu and the bagel sandwiches are on average $9. I don't know who these people think they are than they can take advantage of paying customers in this way. They should be ashamed of themselves and shame on me for buying into it once...but never again. Terrible. read more

First day in Brooklyn visiting our daughter and son-in-law. We found Angels Cafe on Yelp and it got great reviews. We went a half mile out of our way to grab a somewhat late lunch there (2:30 or 2:45) only to find the door locked. An employee came out and told us that they were closed. Hours on Yelp don't indicate that it's closed in the middle of the day. The hours on the sign also say that it's open all afternoon (until 5:00.) If a business changes its hours, it should be responsible enough to change the information on a website, or Yelp, or on the actual door of the business. read more

My friend got a lox bagel. they charge a whopping $8 for lox and there was- I kid you not- a single slice on each side of the bagel. I was impressed to see the customization options for your bagel, however, what on earth is the point if they're just going to ignore what you select. My bagel was not toasted and that kind of ruins the whole sandwich. On top of that it was cold so I had to heat it up in my oven. what's the point of ordered food if I have to re-cook it myself? Tasted bad too. read more

I really wanted to like this bagel shop because it was close but the bagel sandwiches here are more expensive, smaller and less satisfying than the competition. I don't mind paying a premium for good sandwiches but I paid $37 for two measly lox sandwiches. Save your money a go to a real bagel shop. There are so many better choices in the surrounding neighborhood. read more

For starters the food looks good, and is very tasty place the atmosphere is beautiful and the owner is a very cool person.

When you enter Angels Cafe, you order on the tablets they have at the counter. I ordered bagel with lox, cream cheese and scallion. If you have any questions about anything, there is someone who will help. Everyone working there was super friendly and lively, which made the vibes really amazing. I really enjoyed my bagel!

If you want to go into a robot environment made specifically for just to go orders than go ahead. This place is a grub hub HUB. I walked in and you place your order on the iPad. Nobody says Good Morning or "place the order on the iPad". It's as if you don't exist. I placed a simple coffee order and they were all packing grub hub orders. I sat in the restaurant for almost 10 minutes and not once did someone come and try to accommodate me or give me my coffee. They were all packing to go orders that weren't even there yet not even trying to help someone who was there in person and just ordered a small coffee. I was also the only person in the store. Terrible service I don't recommend. read more

Wow! These bagels punch above their weight. You'd be forgiven for walking past without giving it a second thought because it's usually pretty empty and the interior lacks that signature Brooklyn charm. The bagels though were outstanding. Full, dense, excellent flavor and texture. There are also creative and tasty options for toppings. I ordered the ham, avocado, and mustard bagel the first day, and came back the second day for a plain bagel with cream cheese. Neither disappointed. On the second day they recognized me and gave me a free juice. read more

The bagel are fantastic! You can also donate break fast and it is a very nice neighborhood option to pick up break fast.
