Came in as a party of two on a rainy Sunday for their brunch menu and was quickly seated and served. Waiters/waitresses were very attentive and quick to give us menus, waters, take our orders, and clear our empty plates when we finished the app/food. Definitely has a pub/sports bar vibe with bar seating and multiple screens broadcasting pretty much all the sunday NFL games. But they also had ample seating for larger parties and families and it definitely seems like a place that locals visit often. The food was great, though we wouldve liked to try the chicken empanadas if we noticed it on the menu early. Oh wells, maybe next time!

Given my location, the overall taste, and the value, I'd say this is my favorite bagel place in…read moreFort Hamilton. Service is usually quick, though at the usual busy times there can be a bit of a wait. The BEC is always nicely filled, and when I ask for hot sauce (as I usually do), they put a good amount, unlike some other places nearby. Also, they toast their bagels just a little more than others so the outside has a nice crispness, while the inside was still soft. I feel like this place costs maybe 25 cents more than others in the area but it feels worth it. Ambiance is what it is: there are a few tables for people to sit at, but the vast majority are there to order and go. Great local spot.

I asked the delivery lady about it, but she couldn't speak English, so I called the restaurant directly. When I asked them what happened, they said, "Oh, we canceled it and called you"--which was not true; I never received a call. I asked why they canceled it, and the guy just said, "We canceled it and gave you a refund." When I asked if they could still send the smoothie, he responded in an angry voice, "I canceled it, and I gave you a refund--what don't you understand?" Extremely rude. I will not be ordering from this place again.

That was such a perfect idea. First thing we were there, and it was a warm and sultry morning at 6:30AM with the sun up to greet us along with a New York bridge adorning the scene to the south, with us eating outside on the sidewalk I could not imagine a better send off from this great world city. Bagels were a perfect breakfast and we sucked those back in a jiffy. Just as we were finishing, members of the US military, maybe national guardsmen, showed up in black SUVs right in front of us and parked. They got out, a gaggle of them and headed in for their bagels. Well that's something to remember and not an every day sight for us being from Canada, and added to the local flavour of this epic road trip.

I pulled up and I see "Mr" Bagels cafe. For Brooklyn, it sounds like pure class. I'm sure the owner must have a pinky ring. Walking inside, the bagel counter are front and center. To the left, is a coffee bar with multiple coffee choices. Nice looking spot. I ask for a Sesame Bagel with Cream Cheese. Would you like that toasted sir? Wait a second Years ago, I asked for my bagel toasted at Murrays Bagels in Chelsea. The guy behind the counter? He lost his mind! The next day, they put up a hand written sign: No Toasted Bagels So I'm always lerry when asking for extras. Except the bagel guy asked me so I feel relaxed. I pour myself a cup of delicious French Roast Coffee and my bagel is ready. The bagel is perfect. It has a nice chew, just a little too big but thats my personal taste. The cream cheese, even though it's plain, is very silky. Mr Bagels, thank you. Until we meet again.

I ordered the Veggie with the usual suspects: spinach, black olives, red onion, provolone, pickles and green peppers with a little mayo and red wine and vinegar on whole wheat. The location is small but.. and this is big.. the sandwich maker was the sweetest person! I think this has to be one of the friendlier Subway restaurants. I added ice tea and Sun Chips to make it a combo. She really packed on the veggies and was very efficient. I took my sandwich to go and first bite...yummmmmm! This has become my new favorite Subway!

I walk into a small shop, the large menu is front and center. I read on line what I wanted, the #6 - The How You Doin You're not finding this sandwich name in LA! This spot is pure Brooklyn, with some great sounding sandwiches. Trust me, I looked over the menu and wanted to try everything on the menu. The #6 was a fantastic choice, Fresh Brooklyn Italian bread with a perfectly Fried Chicken Cutlet and topped with Roasted Peppers, Fresh Mozzarella and completed with an Oil Balsamic drizzle. Cash only spot, that's ok. Take my money! I'm coming back for the Thursday Special, the Homemade Roast Beef and Melted Fresh Mozzarella sandwich. (How awesome does that sound?!)

CASH ONLY. This is a order to go spot…read more Quality ingredients, very basic sandwiches (this is a good thing, trust me) made fresh to go. I went with the #4 (Menny Special) and #7 (Che Si Dici). Both are very different, both are great. If you want something savory and warm- go with the #4. If you want something that's more 'Italian' and cold cut oriented with a hint of sweetness, go with the #7. Charlie's doesn't really overcomplicate their recipes. The menu is a bit long (given the different combinations), but that's because their experiments are tried and true. The bread is excellent, not sure if made in-house but they're light, toasted, holds the sandwich 'innards' well (though some tectonic sliding iykwim) but still makes for a perfect big bite. Now these are not MASSIVE heroes like Lioni's (this is a good thing), but do consider these sandwiches more of an indulgence/treat. Well worth the trip/price.
