I went looking for a plain cinnamon raisin bagel and a drink during the week in mid morning hours . It was not crowded ( three customers ahead of me).yet took forever to place and then receive my order . Since it was hot outside, I ordered a frozen mocha drink, which I assumed would come with whipped cream as on the picture in the window looked delicious. When the girl finally made mine, it came in a small cup for the price and had no whipped cream and it basically tasted like malted chocolate milk. No mocha flavor whatsoever and very sickly sweet and artificial tasting. The bagel was small and quite doughy. The place is set up fairly cute with couches to sit on however they need a quicker service, especially in the morning hours when people are in a rush to just get their things and run. And I'd stick with the hot coffee. read more

Wonderful place, great breakfast! But there is a light hair girl that you better don't say that your bread got burned, she will eat your head off! There is a very kind and educated girl her name is Jazmin and taking the order and customer service is a wow!! my respect for her good education and work! read more

I enjoy a good bagel in the morning every so often. Having recently stopped at this place to give it a shot, I must say I was very disappointed. I hate writing negative reviews, but I could not find many positive things to say at all. First, the line to place an order was extremely long. It looked like only 2 workers were there the day I came, and the line just moved extremely slow. Then, I ordered an everything bagel, toasted, with cream cheese, to go. When I got my order, I just headed to my car to eat when I got to work. I was only a few minutes away. When I opened the wrapping, I noticed my bagel was not toasted at all, and that this was supposed to be an everything bagel and barely had any seeds on it. Look at my photos to see what they call an everything bagel. Lastly, it was so overloaded with cream cheese that I had to scrape some off. I usually enjoy a lot of cream cheese, but this ratio of cheese to bagel was ridiculous. Overall, I did not enjoy my bagel at all and won't be coming back. I feel like too many errors were made. Hopefully, they will schedule more workers to be they in the mornings going forward, as the issues I experienced could have been fixed, having more help. read more

If you don't want a sandwich order you have to wait a long time to pay as they don't have a separate line. They have great deals on frozen bagels, but are too lazy to properly mark them even though all need to do is mark a checkbox. They close much too early. That being said, they have the best bagels in the area. read more

We've been in Warren for 20+ years and this is our favorite bagel shop. We've tried several others in the area and we think they're the best. For those complaining about the lines, there is a reason why people are willing to wait for their fresh bagels. Their service team is always working hard to meet demand. Most of the team is Spanish-speaking and a few have limited English. I make a point to speak clearly and slowly while making eye contact to make sure they understand my order. A friendly smile also goes a long way. I've never had a problem with an incorrect order. Today is going to be a busy Saturday morning at Bagels-4-U and I'm up early checking their hours so I can go before the big rush. I'm going to pick up a dozen fresh bagels. My family will be very happy. Thanks to the whole team for their years of great bagels. read more

Bagel was just ok. We only ordered 2 bagels but its mediocre. Took the order and its messed up. I ordered toast bagel but husband want his non-toasted. They messed up. Waiting for very long time to get our bagels, just 2 of them. Workers there are not friendly no customer services minded and screwed up a lot. This is only 3-4 time I've been here but they never get it right. Its such a bad breakfast nightmare, wait long line, wait long for order and seem like nobody care. Nobody apologized when things don't go right. No manager is there to take things under control, horrible, horrible service! Will try somewhere else. Enough is enough! read more

Bagel was certainly for me. Love bagel spots that have French toast bagels to satisfy my love for the two breakfast classics. Bagel had the perfect crunch on the outside and was fluffy on the inside. Small pockets of cinnamon were great and the bagel was not overly sweet - a huge plus! Bathroom were spotless even after the morning rush and the staff all wore mask. Will certainly come back for more! read more

100% agree with Greg S. These people are super incompetent and should not be working any kind of service business. You are supposed to make baked goods early in the morning before customers arrive, not while they are on long lines!! What really took me by surprise was the customers and how long they were willing to subject themselves to a torturous wait for bagels?!?!? Really? read more

One of my favorite bagel joints in Central Jersey! There can be quite a wait on a weekend but it's so worth it! I love the Bagel Bomb because it comes with a crispy hashbrown inside my egg sandwich! Super greasy and unhealthy but the perfect cure to a hangover! read more

My first time to this location. They were pretty busy on a Saturday morning. They have a pretty large menu selection along with a fairly large bagel selection. The bagels are on the small side compared to most places I've been to . They seem to have several regulars that get a dozen bagels and cream cheese to go. I didn't have to wait too long for my order either. I was a tad disappointed when I got home one of the bagel didn't have much bacon on it the bagel in general was good thick and chewy texture. It was $11 for 2 bacon , egg and cheese bagels . read more

The bagels are great, chewy. Tons of flavors to choose from and love the mini plain bagels

I'm eating my bagel right now and giving this place a 2 because the consistency in messing up orders is really really frustrating. The person who took my order wrote it down and still didn't toast my bagel. Last time when I asked for it toasted there was a person who tried to convince me that It didn't need to be because it was fresh and got an attitude. It's the apathy and consistency in messing up orders that really loses points. Otherwise the bagels are tasty and will satisfy any craving. read more

I recently went to Bagels-4-U for the second time in as many weeks. Bagels-4-U makes a good bagel. These aren't my first visits but it is the first time I noticed their cooking process. IMO, there are a few things that set Bagels-4-U apart from other immediately local shops: the oven & cooking process, the variety of bagels & spreads and the size of the shop. The variety of bagels and spreads/smears is just fantastic; they must have about 15 bagel varieties, if not more, and there are some that I have never seen before. For example, I went home with a blueberry and cinnamon burst bagels on Sunday. My favorite part is the oven. They obviously hand roll the bagels, but after boiling they throw them on these wooden boards and throw them in a sort of a rotisserie oven. It's an impressive oven process. This very large shop has plenty of room to sit and eat although most come and go. I am yet to receive any bad service resembled in some of the previous reviews. While I can see how there can be mistakes made in the ordering process, I have recently had accurate orders of varied bagels, spreads, tiffins and/or cookies. There are a bunch of employees and anyone can take an order. I have noticed that writing the order on a paper bag is a preferred method for taking orders. I'll definitely be back. read more

I usually have good experiences here, but the last couple times I have had incorrect orders. For example, today I ordered 3 bagels with cream cheese. I asked for scallion cream cheese on toasted bagels and received plain cream cheese on all 3, and the bagels were not toasted. The employee seemed zoned-out and even though I clarified the order a couple of times (and she nodded to agree) but the order was completely wrong. read more

I think that the bagels from Bagels 4 U are pretty good.They are crispy on the outside and not to doughy on the inside.I normally buy 1dozen bagels at one shot. My favorite is sesame and everything. I also like to get Taylor ham egg n cheese on a sesame bagel or tuna salad which is also good. This place can get very busy. The lines can back up and organization is thrown to the wind. The staff is friendly, but needs to work together better. I will continue to come here with hopes of improvement . If ur ordering for several people better to call in ur order and pick it up. read more

I had a bad experience at Bagels for U today in Warren. I ordered an egg and cheese with turkey bacon on a roll. When I got home I open my sandwich and I got a turkey sandwich with an egg and pork bacon. How can a bagel shop not know what turkey bacon is? read more

A lot of negative reviews on this place but I'm going to give it 4 stars based on my experience. Was excited to get this place after getting off the plane in NJ. We went straight from the airport as we took a red-eye and was starving and we were both excited for some pork roll (or Taylor ham, whatever you prefer), as we live in CA. The place was empty and we ordered right away. I didn't love the roll, which is why I'm giving it 4 stars but overall this hit the spot and I was satisfied! Porks roll is great and it's a shame it is not enjoyed everywhere! read more

Just awful service. They really don't care if you like the food or not. They don't listen when you order and usually mess it up. They also take forever and work really slow. The food tastes good but the service ruins it. read more

Even though this Yelp page is 2 stars (ever since I've been coming here it's always had a low rating) but I come here on a regular, practically every Sunday without fail to get my as always beacon egg an cheese on a bagel (don't forget the salt pepper and ketchup) & coffee of course. To be honest, I don't really understand why their ratings are low on here but I guess take into consideration that everyone comes here and not many have the time to write a review. (I've been using Yelp for the last 2+ years and this is my first review, ever.) If their experience was good they'll return. Hence why I've continued to come here every time. I'm being more active on their Yelp page because they deserve it. Clean, freshly made, good ol mom and pop bagel joint. What else are you asking for? For example, I just got myself a Beacon Egg and Cheese and I came as the grill was closing but the young girl that was serving me said "I'll make it for you". That's customer service. And now I wish I got her name because I'd be giving her the love on here. This is a great family run business! I'll be returning, as always. read more

Bagels-4-U has some sub par reviews on Yelp and other sites, but I really haven't had a bad experience with them. If you're looking for a good bagel, I think they can provide that! They offer a lot of different cream cheeses, sandwiches, etc. One thing I learned the hard way is their everything seasoning is on the bottom of the bagel. I one time ordered an everything at a different location and sent it back because I didn't see the seasoning... not realizing it was on the bottom read more

Employees are not very attentive and a bit rude. Great place to come if you get too much attention at home/work but have a really strong desire to be ignored in public. I typically recommend placing an order over the phone then try to pick up said order at the cashier if you're really interested in having the Invisible Man experience. Bagels and the fair are pretty run of the mill. However there's much friendlier local bagel establishments with equal or better quality whom I'd rather frequent. read more

Slowest bagel place in the world. Seriously there's four or five people behind the counter (and a line of customers) and I tell you there was not a drop of urgency from any of the staff. I want whatever drugs they're taking to be so CHILL during work. read more

I can count the amount of times they have gotten my order right over the last 5 years on one hand. Orders are always wrong, wait time is always long, it's just a shame the bagels are good. The guy behind the counter needs to get his act together, if you've been working at a bagel shop for 10 years and you cannot accurately take down an order for a bagel and prepare it, it may be time to move on. read more

Absolutely horrible, unfriendly service (and in Warren of all towns?), and the prices??? INSANE!!! If the overall quality were 100 times better, it would still be jacked up, and way overpriced! We got 2 flagels, 1 with a very light coat of chive cream cheese, and the other with a light coat of butter and chicken salad. And they went very light on the chicken salad (which was mediocre at best). Total? $17.00+!!! No drinks/coffee. I questioned the cashier how it could be THAT expensive, and you know what she did? Rather than apologizing, or simply stating that she was just an employee, and the owner sets the prices, she said, "oh, I forgot to charge you for the light coat of butter," which she did immediately thereafter. And so, she gave me a new total. I paid her in cash, left no tip, and we will never set foot inside this place again... not even if they were giving bagels away for free. Why? Because clearly, the owner is a cheap and money-hungry degenerate, who is price-gouging and taking advantage of Americans, in the midst of everything going on in the world. Not the least bit recommended to anyone, unless you like to be ripped off. read more

Bagels are great but they need to work in an assembly line. The way they take your order and make your bagel is inefficient and causes long lines. read more

The bagels are amazing. Current review by snobs. bagel sandwiches are great here. Can't wait to go today.

The bagels are fine, but the staff isn't that great. I asked for my bagel to be warmed, they FORGOT that I asked, and then when I told them they were like oh sorry we already made the bagel and it's already wrapped, and asked if I wanted to order another one .... Like you guys messed up and I have to buy another one. I just took it and left because I had to leave for work, but I was not happy. read more

Worst bagel place I have ever been to. I have given them so many chances to give me even mediocre service and they still disappoint me every time. My order is wrong at least 75% of the time, and the staff has the worst attitude I have ever seen. They act like they are doing you a favor and have absolutely no sense of urgency or customer service. The coffee is horrible as well, and their bagels are inconsistent. Check out my picture. Tiny bagel with almost no "everything" on it. They also gave me regular cream cheese instead if lite veggie cream cheese. Not long ago I also asked for a grilled cheese. After a 20 minute wait I got American cheese on untoasted white bread. Unbelievable. read more

Bagels-4-U - Warren - Tiny bagel made with hatred. - Bagels Near Me - Warren, New Jersey

I've been coming here for years because it's the bagel shop that is closest to work. Typically I call in my order a good 10 mins before arrival and it's never ready. Never. I watch the people in line get there's and I'll get mine somewhere at the end of that line. And it's usually wrong. I ask for toasted with butter and I get non toasted with about a stick of cold butter (who eats that much cold butter?) order three things for coworkers, I'm surprised if I get two of those items. Part of the issue is that they don't understand you on the phone. They don't repeat your order so you have to have faith that they are competent. Unfortunately, I'll come back because it's the closest but if you have any place along your commute I'd recommend you going there. With that said, this does not reflect other Bagel-4-U locations. The others seem to be great read more

Not sure why there are so many bad reviews because we had a great experience. Device was fast and friendly and the bagels were amazing!

I have had very many experiences here and do continue to buy bagels here. To start my number one issue here is jus ta lack of attentiveness to what you are ordering. There have been multiple times where I have called ahead and had the order messed up. However my biggest issue is when I am there in person ordering and they walk away half way through me talking and mess it up, that is where I have the issue. On multiple times I have been charged for the full price of something and then receive half of it. If I am ordering and paying $11 for a bagel with cream cheese and lox and you forget to put the lox on, where is the miscommunication. It was completely on their fault and then the girl tried to tell me I did not pay for the lox. They do have really good bagels but it comes to a point where is the shitty service really worth it. read more

Make sure you talk very slowly so they get your order correctly..... I feel like after spending close to eight dollars for a sandwich you should get what you ordered. read more

I have to agree the bagels are very good. I have gone to the store for many years and waited online for incredible amounts of time. I just can't understand why this one place is so slow. There's also one girl behind the counter that almost consistently gets my order wrong. She got the order of the person in front of me wrong. After giving her my 1 sandwich order came back about 5 minutes later and asked me to repeat my order. I stopped going there because of the service but as I walked by saw 1 person on line. Somehow I was in there for 20 minutes getting 1 sandwich which by the way had mayo not mustard. Not going back! read more

Bagels are decent. Hard to see what type they have because the bins are blocked by the tall counter. What I struggle to get past is that my order has been wrong the last three times I've been here. The biggest mess up being forgetting to put meat on the breakfast sandwich more than once. They write nothing down and treat you like you're an annoyance. The wait is always far too long even though there are multiple employees behind the counter not assisting customers. Won't be back. read more

Ants crawling over all the cookies. Service is rude. This place looks disgusting. Not sure how the health dept has no shut them down.

This place is hard to review, the bagels are the best around. So many different types and they are fresh and made on site. The problem is customer service. The one in Martinsville has people that seem unhappy which make for slow service as if they don't want to be there. The one in Raritan and Branchburg are slightly better. The set up makes for slow service. Anyway if you can get past the low morale the bagels are awesome. read more

If I could give negative stars, I would. The service is rude & unfriendly & the food isn't even close to good enough to make up for their terrible customer service. My fiance placed an order, after waiting 20 minutes he is handed the WRONG order. The woman then argues with him about what he ordered (I'm a vegetarian, he definitely didn't order porkroll on my sandwich). She finally concedes & makes him 2 new sandwiches. We both wish he had saved his money & walked out. The sandwiches were disgusting, sloppy messes & their "Bialy" bagel is NOT a bialy, it was an over cooked bagel with bialy like toppings. I tried to eat mine ..... I will NEVER go here again. PS If you want an authentic Bialy bagel go to the bagel shop in Middlesex by the farmers market, I love them! read more
