Staff are efficient though They were out of some things which disappointed because the gf person in our party also can't have seeds, and was hoping for something other than a plain bagel.

I came here excited to have another flavor only to discover they carry only those three flavors. When I asked the cashier about the bagel of the day she said there wasn't one. After we ordered I then realized that they had both salt bagels and blueberry bagels. Why did she not tell us that? We also tried to order a cheese bun because we saw them on trays having just been removed from the oven. However the staff member told us they were out of cheese buns. The sandwich was great. The tomato jam was generously applied and they weren't stingy with the avocado. The challah and babka were both really nice! The challah is on the sweet side. I bet both would be even better microwaved. They have a bit of a gluten free vibe to the texture still, but are overall great compared to store bought. Our lattes came out quickly. No utensils, and they don't give napkins with your order. Bathroom is not very accessible. High sink, no hooks or grab bars. No seating for breakfast or lunch. It was extremely busy on a Sunday at lunchtime.

On my first visit I had the Smoked & Savory sandwich on an everything bagel (I was really in the…read moremood for whitefish). The sandwich is unlike any I've ever had. They put mustard, pickled peppers and pickled cucumbers. I'm really curious as to why the mustard is added. The mustard is very good but it overpowered the whitefish (maybe the employee making my sandwich put too much on?). The bagel and mustard together felt like I was eating a pretzel with mustard. The whitefish was good but again lost amongst all the other ingredients. The packaging they use is different. The sandwich was wrapped and placed standing up on a box. It wasn't so easy to wrap and put back in what I didn't finish. I also had to try the pastries. I had a muffin and shashoka bureka. The muffin was really good but didn't need the cheese filling. It was too much and caused half the inside of the muffin to be hollow. There are a few tables inside and out. There are also stools at the windows

It has only one store, which is found on Amsterdam Avenue on the Upper West Side of New York City, - and it has changed very little over the past 120+ years. Most famous for its Smoked Fish, especially its Smoked Sturgeon, Barney Greengrass has an extensive menu along this line, offering mostly cured fish items, either in sliced form, or as smoked fish salads. However there is a small list of meat sandwiches that are offered as well, making Barney Greengrass yet another great Jewish Deli in NYC that is NOT Kosher. During my numerous visit between 1976 and 1999, the service at Barney Greengrass has always been friendly and informative. It made me feel like I was a regular here, even during my fist visit. I always make sure to get one the platters, which can be any combination of three smoked fish items. Usually select the Sturgeon, the Nova, and the White Fish, which comes two Bagels. I found it good to get a large of their amazing Borscht as well, as a refreshing pallet cleanser. And just to mix things up a bit, I once slit a Pastrami Sandwich, whish was on the small side for an NYC Deli, but was delicious that it was well worth price. Other items of is their Pickled Herring Salad, their White Fish Salad, and especially their Latkes (potato pancakes). I love fish, thus Barney Greengrass has become one of my favorite Delis in America. Yum!

I got the class bagel with lox and spent almost $40. if that is what it takes to keep historic institutions around, I'll do it, just not as often as I'd like to

The outside of the bagel was crispy, the inside warm and soft. The cream cheese amount, perfect. My smoothie screamed summer. Pay with your phone / card.

Unfortunately, we felt that the bagels were overrated, as they didn't seem fresh, was extremely chewy, and the shmears could have been better - the spreads were thick and not as smooth.

It's definitely a convenient spot no matter the time of day. The menu has a little bit of everything such as pastries, coffee, tea, sandwiches, salads, soups and even gluten free options. They also serve beer and wine, which I wasn't expecting. This location has both indoor and outdoor seating, which is nice. The setup is mostly DIY since you throw away your own garbage and etc. But they do bring your food and drinks out to you. They also have a restroom for customers and a self serve tap water station with glasses, which I appreciated. I ordered the chicken salad sandwich. It was alright, but I do think it could've used a little more flavor or seasoning.

We figured while we were grabbing the gift card we just had to try a cookie too. When we arrived, there's a couple steps you go down to get into the store. We went in about 10am on a Saturday, and there was about two people ahead of us. We were helped within minutes, and I ordered the Two Chip Chocolate Chip Cookie, while my partner got the Chocolate Chip Walnut Cookie. I believe each cookie ran a little more than $5/cookie. We threw the cookies in my backpack, got lost going to Trader Joes, and then went back to the hotel (a 40 minute journey) and to our surprise - the cookies were still warm even though it was raining outside! My partner and I demolished those cookies within seconds. They were warm, slightly crispy on the edges, so many chocolate chips inside and chewy in the middle. If I could describe the perfect cookie this would be it. I imagine this would be delightful with a cold glass of milk. I also noticed several people at JFK with Levain bags, so I'm guessing it's common to stock up and bring home. Now, I'm trying to convince my partner to go to the location in Beverly Hills when we're in the area.
