I've been here a time or two over the Years, & had pick up orders from here many many times. It's just good & that's all that matters. We had the Bacon Egg & Cheese and Taylor Ham Egg & Cheese on Croissant. They have truly mastered the blend of all of the ingredients. The egg is soft and subtle, the meat is not overstocked/too much, the Croissant is soft and buttery, the cheese is the right amount of melted goodness, & the salt, pepper, & ketchup are the perfect amounts for the cause. A very standard Jersey set of sandwiches, yet not everywhere actually gets them right. They definitely do here. Grades: Bacon Egg & Cheese: A+ Taylor Ham Egg & Cheese: A+

You know it's a good bagel when your jaw hurts a little eating it from all the chewing. The cream cheese options are fresh and most importantly, not cross contaminated. There is nothing worse than getting a bit of a different flavor mixed in. Service was fast and efficient. Like all bagel shops, it's small and can get crowded.

Staff is friendly, no seating in store. On weekend mornings, there's often a line but it seems to move relatively quickly. Variety of bagels and toppings is quite impressive. For me at least, it's worth the 10 mile drive despite the fact that there are numerous bagel shops much closer to home. Strongly recommend .

They charged me $17 for the salad and said because I put the chicken on the side they charged me $5 as a separate order. If I had it on the salad, it would have been $12.

This place went downhill. LINDA Z.

NYC Deli and Bagels was truly an exceptional bagel shop…read more Not every bagel shop offers more than your plan bagel with various seeds. This bagel shop offers quite the variety of bagel "base" flavors before adding seeds. Never in my life have I seen a rye or marble rye bagel, but this shop has it. They also have pumpernickel (slightly lower carb! Also an unfortunately not very common bagel), egg, cinnamon raisin, whole wheat, and cinnamon raisin. I was lucky to get to try 3 bagels during my visit. The first was an everything bagel with egg, bacon, lettuce, and tomato. The everything bagel was chewy and flavorful, which is not what I expect from a bagel that has a plain bagel base. And the eggs were cooked perfectly and the bacon of a quality taste. There was some sauce on it that brought it all together. The second bagel I got to try was pumpernickel with lox and scallion cream cheese as well as capers and onions. Again, the bagel was large and chewy, and the pumpernickel flavor was just right. The lox serving was generous and the school cream cheese serving just the right amount. Personally I don't like it when there's too much cream cheese so this was perfect. And finally, a dessert bagel! My husband and I split a cinnamon raisin bagel with walnut raisin cream cheese. Everything has a sweet flavor making for a solid finisher dessert bagel, but it wasn't too sweet. The balance was just right. The prices were lower than what I'd seen elsewhere, and I felt I was getting high value for the size of the bagel and the generous filling portions. Also, every savory bagel comes with a pickle and side of coleslaw which I thought was a nice touch. Rarely do you see such perks at bagel establishments. For those who wish to dine in, there are a few tables that seat 4. I recommend the dine-in experience because you'll end up deciding you need another bagel after the first. I couldn't recommend NYC Deli and Bagels enough! I'll be back if I'm in town.

Bagel place located on Rt. 22 East in Union. Stopped by after going to the range up the road and…read morethe bagel was very good. I got an everything bagel with cream cheese and got a hot tea from the tea and coffee self serve. Bagel was a usual New Jersey bagel which means it was very good. Good crust and nice and soft inside.

I would definitely stop back here again if I was in the area.

Food: This is my second visit to this location. The first time I came I ordered a croissant…read moresandwich. It was fresh and tasted really good. Today, I ordered a cappuccino. That was good as well. Service: ordering my sandwich - Lightning fast. Wait wasn't more than 10 minutes and it wasn't busy that day. Today, it was busy with lots of food orders coming in and out. So my cappuccino was overlooked mistakenly and just when I was about to inquire about my order, a female staff member beat me to the punch. My cappuccino was out within two minutes and the male staff member was all "wait wait wait wait wait...a free cookie for you for waiting so long...happy thanksgiving." I was not expecting the cookie and wasn't looking for any kind of comped item. I'm used to breakfast spots being busy and so I figured I'd give them time to make my order. So, just because of the way they handled what for me was a nonissue, they have a loyal customer. Ambiance: clean, bright, airy on the floor ordering side. It looks darker on the dine-in side BUT I can't say for sure because i haven't gone to that side...yet. I'm going to be in the area quite a bit, so now I know this is is a good spot to patronize.

I did find it very unusual that there were no menus posted, and no menus available to look at. It was pretty much pick whatever you want and order it. They were able to accommodate my choice of grilled chicken with lettuce and onion. Upon first glance, the bagels are smaller than I'm used to. They're not quite mini bagels, but they're definitely not the same size as most bagel shops. Despite that, the sandwich was delicious. The blueberry bagel I ordered tasted like a regular New Jersey style bagel. The grilled chicken breast was loaded on the sandwich and everything else I asked for was exactly as ordered. I loved the addition of a side macaroni salad, and a pickle. Both were at no additional cost. Thumbs down to the surcharge on use of credit card (I didn't see the sign about the fee posted but may have missed it). Overall, it was a good experience. I wouldn't go out of my way to visit again, but I would stop by if I was in the area.

It's a small venue for take out orders, part of a short strip complex on a main road. It has parking lots on both sides of the short strip, so parking is easy. Typical to-go style interior, I didn't even bother taking pictures. They have a 3-Star standing here on Yelp, a lot of the complaints I saw were staff related, & we had the same experience. The person at the counter just seemed annoyed by the customers. As if he didn't wanna be bothered taking orders. He sighed and rolled his eyes A LOT. One customer came in, he recognized him and said "Your usual?" The customer said "Yes," & then the guy just turned around, rolled his eyes & mumbled "Jesus Christ." Now for the food. We all have to admit, our food was good, so I'm torn! One the one hand the customer service was crappy, on the other hand, the food was actually good. I only took a pic of my food, but we all did enjoy it. If you don't mind having staff that seems to prefer you'd go away, by all means stop on by, lol. Grades: Taylor Ham, Egg & Cheese: A
