What can I say ???? 1st impression is everything always go with your gut.... I was Gonna Leave But Their Coffee Smelled Good..... Just had some shots in my knees feeling good heading back to the Parkway & Saw this bagel store On my way to the Doctor and planned on stopping on my way out to give them a try get my all-time favorite the real deal, cream cheese with lox tomato and onion on a bagel..... Epic fail; The Bagel was ruff to chew & Wimpy On The Cream cheese & Very Heavy On The Red Onion ??? Like why ??? Anyone that orders this sandwich at any bagel store expects for this sandwich to hit just right and this one just didn't hit.... My whole wheat sesame bagel was very tough was not easy to chew unless a took a sip of coffee to wash it down ... Servers are very friendly and fast; all older men; This Bagel Store was just average to me .... Brooklyn Born & Raised So My standards are Very High For Bagel Stores; the average Joe just might give this place three stars idk. The Coffee was Fantastic !!! Store needs a little love in my opinion, but what do I know? Thanks Greg D & family read more

Bagels are very fresh. Particularly on Sunday mornings. I absolutely hate the price increase though. Sandwiches used to cost $5 and are now $7.50 read more

Great bagels just the right crunch and chewiness! Staff were super friendly and efficient!

My buddy Doc Howie mentioned this really good bagel place on Willis Ave. So after racquetball on Sunday four of us diehard bagel fans drove the few minutes east to Roslyn Heights and parked in the big parking lot behind Barbara's Bagels. The 5 star highlights: 1) Really tasty and fresh bagels - we got there at 10 am on a Sunday and they were baking a new batch to replenish the quickly moving tasty ones. 2) $1.50 per bagel is 50 cents to $1 lower than every other bagel store on Long Island. I paid $5 for a well buttered and yummy everything bagel and a large coffee with a refill. Awesome deal! 3) Great and strong self help coffee. A good cup of Joe makes a good bagel better. The staff was on top of ensuring coffee was being freshly prepared every few minutes. 4) Really fun, efficient and chill staff( esp Adam) who went through that line( photo) in a jiffy. 5) Great and convenient location just north of the LIE on Willis Ave with loads of parking in the back lot. Barbara was beautiful! read more

We stopped by on a Saturday morning and it was quite busy with locals, which seemed to be a good sign. I ordered a plain bagel with butter, and the bagel was completely drenched in melted butter. The bagel itself was good, but it was difficult to eat and very messy with all of the butter dripping. If you're ordering with butter, I'd recommend asking for "light butter" or on the side. read more

I went into Barbara's Bagels to pick up a bagel for a quick breakfast. The bagel was nice and chewy but unfortunately the amount of scallion cream cheese was pretty pathetic. Being charged $5 for a bagel and not getting a decent amount of cream cheese is very disappointing. Sorry but Barbara's Bagel's is not for me. read more

3 guys behind the counter kept asking me what I ordered instead of just writing it down. Seems very disorganized. BEC.. they forgot the ketchup. It also grossed me out they didnt wash their hands before touching food after dealing with the register read more

I've been coming here for over 3 years now ever since I moved to the area. They have all your typical bagel spot items and everything tastes decent for the most part. I've been getting my usual every weekend- a sausage (or bacon), egg & cheese sandwich (or wrap) or an everything bagel scooped out with either plain cream cheese or butter. I prefer their hot sandwiches over the bagels bc their bagels are too thick and chewy for my liking but nonetheless, still good and my kids like them. They also have mini & rainbow bagels for your little ones too! All the workers here are friendly and nice. It does get really busy during the morning rush so you may want to call in your order. read more

Great bagels! I love getting white fish on an everything bagel. DELICIOUS! Their bagels are thick, fluffy, and freshly made.

Always great bagels with friendly service. The owner and his son are always smiling and providing delicious bagels! The grill cook makes an excellent BEC on a roll! The rest of the team know their customers and their regular orders and deliver with a sincere smile. Highly recommended over the other local stores and have never been disappointed!!! read more

They make a delicious New York style bagel here. It is well baked, as evidence by a dough with superb texture. I had mine with poppy seeds and a spread of whitefish salad. The whitefish was a little too soft (too much mayo perhaps), but it wasn't bad. The service is good and the prices are fair. read more

Dear Barbara's Bagels, While I'd like to think you don't monitor your Yelp reviews, as someone who was born and raised in the restaurant industry, I know we can't help but take a peek at what the world is saying about our food. Let me preface this by saying that this is not an attack on Amy R. This is an attack on the words that came out of Amy R. insulting my favorite bagel shop in the world. Like Amy R. I've been going to Barbara's for years. You guys have made me 3,230 bacon, egg & cheese on everything bagels. Each one doughier, and cheesier, than the last. And you never forget to ask me for salt, pepper, or ketchup. You made even the darkest of mornings shine bright with your perfectly runny egg yolks. And for that, I will always defend you from these ridiculous tuna weighing critics. Because I can't imagine a world where I can't wake up to your beautiful, doughy bagels. All the best in the name of food. - Yelpman read more

I think this place is a front for money laundering cuz there's no way this is a serious bagelry that can pay its rent. Where's Barbara anyway? I don't know what that last reviewer was on giving this place five stars. The bagels lacked flavour. The ambience lacked, well, everything. It's unclear if this place is still in business from the outside. Inside, no one could understand what 'buhtah', pronounced in a British accent, meant. read more

If you like thick, fat bagels, then this is the place for you. The bagels are great and they don't get hard the next day like other bagels. They are freshly made on the spot and the perfect density for a bagel. read more

Coming from CT, where we are not known for bagels, it was great to stumble upon these bagels which are out of this world.

The bagels are fine. $8.80 for a small tub of cream cheese. The cream cheese cost more than the 6 bagels. Inflation blah blah. They know exactly what they are doing and it's really not right. It's a $5 tub for convenience stores at most. Bad business practice. read more

Bagels are decent. Tried two bagels with cream cheese. Also ordered a chicken salad on a roll. Disappointed about my sandwich there wasn't much chicken salad.. for $9 I honestly would've expected more than a smear of chicken salad on my roll. read more

Not the best bagels, not the worst bagels. But if you're a local, consider stopping by to pick up a breakfast sandwich or whatever way you like your bagels prepared! FYI - bring cash! Or its $10 minimum to use a card I've been here a handful of times now and I pretty much only get a ham, egg, and cheese or bacon, egg, and cheese on a everything bagel. They hit the spot for me when I'm craving them. However, I would NOT recommend getting coffee from this place. I recently got an ice coffee from there and it tasted very watery. I drank a few sips before throwing it out. About the store: It's small with a handful of seats but conveniently located on a main road with street parking and a parking lot behind it. The interior seems to be pretty old and outdated, so don't expect anything fancy. read more

Ordered two bagels this morning with xtra cream. Ordered xtra cream cheese because last time I ordered a bagel, the cream cheese was spread like a thin layer of butter. So this morning, I unwrap bagel , once again thin spread of cream cheese in the middle of the bagel, the ends dry, no cheese!! Spent 4.50 per bagel. Can't understand the reason for such skimping ! Will not be returning. read more

I enjoy their bagels... decent size and has flavor. Big parking lot in the rear for convenience of north bound traffic. Convenient from the I495 (LIE) read more

AVOID AVOID AVOID AWFUL customer service. You're not informed of the $10 min until you get there and are forced to buy a $4 drink. Once they have your money, they don't even say "have a nice day" or "enjoy your meal". I wish I read the reviews before calling my order in read more

Great bagel shop with outstanding service!! On our 3 day trip from Newport, RI to Roslyn, NY, we went here for breakfast before a baseball game. The staff was very kind and fulfilling. My wife, daughter and I all had bagels and coffee and even mango nectar. Outstanding!! We all walked out and my daughter said, "what great people!" I had already thought the same thing myself. It's nice when you find great places with great services that care. Thank you to the little bagel shop on Minneola St in Roslyn!! Great job and we will be back for the next visit and baseball games!! read more

Time for the weekend bagel run. Today it's Barbara's Bagels. This is a relatively small storefront just north of the Expressway on Willis Ave. Now, as for the bagels, they were big and fluffy (see the photo posted). However, they were cold. I know I should have asked if I wanted them toasted by I wasn't expecting them to be cool to the touch. Just a little bit doughy but not too much. Just enough cream cheese too (did I mention I love cream cheese?) I probably would have added a star if the bagels were warm. They had a decent supply of bagels behind the counter (even if they were a little cool to the touch). It's a decent bagel shop. I'll go with a single thumb up for Barbara's Bagels based on today's experience. read more

Incredibly disappointing experience at Barbara's bagels today. Stopped in this morning to grab breakfast and was greeted by an rude and incompetent employee. He began with a lovely "whenever you're ready". We then told him our order and he told my wife that what she wanted (and orders every time we go to a bagel place) isn't possible and that it would be better if we did it his way. If you would like to pay for our bagels, maybe, however, when you're charging almost 6-Bucks for a flat with cream cheese and tomato, please respect your customers wishes. Additionally, my request of extra cream cheese (willing to pay extra if necessary), seemed to be far to much for him. When I got home there was almost nothing on my bagel as if it was deliberate. Nothing like paying to have a bagel made for you at the store just to remake it yourself at home! Rude staff. Overpriced bagels. No reason to return. read more

drop my daughter for swimming practice in the area at 600 AM..lol .. I was tired of DD's of their coffee and bagels, etc and wanted a change. I stop by and I order everything bagel with bacon / egg / mayo / salt and pepper. Verdict: very good bagel sandwich !! Now my daughter is ordering the same bagel sandwich..lol read more

The bagels here are decent but it seems like this place is barely trying. So yeah, if you need a bagel and you're passing by maybe you'll enjoy that. But maybe you'll also enjoy standing there waiting while the grill is worked at sloth-like speeds. read more

Not the biggest fan of these bagels, but they're pretty good for what this area of Long Island has to offer. The ingredients on the bagels don't stick on too well - I'm a person that loooove my "everythings" on the bagel. They're a bit thicker / more dense. Cream cheese is fabulous! Cash only under $10. read more

My husband went in to purchase 1/4 lb of tuna fish. On the price board it states " tuna fish $14.00 per pound". The business charged him $5 for the 1/4 lb. They refused to correct it and obviously hide inflated prices into orders. BUYERS beware and B Bagels go back to school for math and ethics. read more

Been coming to Barbara's ever since we moved to Roslyn! Every time I visited home from college or even now when I live abroad, I am always waiting for my Barbara's egg and cheese as soon as I get off the plane. It's not always the best service, but two amazing guys run the show and I love supporting their business and the bagels are worth it. This is definitely one of my staples :) read more

Not very clean place at all.......... I mean actually surprised that a place in Roslyn is this dirty.....one of the owners is extremely rude no person skills at all......one person handles money and then touches the food with dirty hands....... I'm shocked board of Health never shut this place down ! Extremely dirty read more

LOVE! We just stopped here on the way to a hike and were pleasantly surprised. The bagels were so thick and tasted so so good, and the butter was really good too! Definitely will be returning. read more

For a place with "Bagels" in the name, this place seems to disappoint. Came here on recommendation from the previous reviews. Bagels seemed a bit pricey, which normally would excite me with the thought of a higher quality breakfast. I ordered an everything bagel with plain cream cheese, although this place did have quite the variety of spreads. To get straight to the point: the bagel was cold and the spread was thin. I wasn't given the option to have the bagel toasted, nor was the business booming enough to consistently have hot bagels on the shelves. The bagel itself was alright, but not for this price. Bagel boss cafe is just down the street, I suggest you make like a boss and head there. read more

Great bagels in the PW/Roslyn area! My coworkers and I make special trips to Barbara's on Fridays to celebrate upcoming weekends. LOVE the vegetable bagel, which is actually green!! And, since they specialize in bagels, there's an extremely WIDE selection of cream cheeses (including low fat lox! and flavored Tofutti). If you're ordering a couple dozen, there's no need to order in advance either-- they're always ready to help out with large quantities while you wait!! Unfortunately, they don't deliver (sadness) but there's the added benefit of going to choose coffee from the different flavors they brew each day (I'm a fan of the dark roast myself). Be wary though, parking in their mini lot can be troubling if you go during a busy morning; park instead in the Commerce Bank/TD lot, and don't worry because you'll be in Barbara's and out fast! read more
