It is strictly takeaway as there is really no place to sit and eat. The small shop is very straightforward with just a deli-like counter from which to see the goods and order. We were there on a very busy Saturday morning. We queued up in a line of people that extended out the door. They were pretty good about keeping the line moving, however, and we placed our order within 6 or 7 minutes of joining the queue. My wife had a Peanut Butter-Filled Plain Bagel, which she liked quite a lot. I had Smoked Salmon and Cream Cheese on an Everything Bagel. It was very good. The service was very efficient and reasonably pleasant and the prices were quite fair. We will go back if we ever have the chance to do so in the future.

The cracklings were a nice addition and we enjoyed every bite of the sandwich and were even tempted to get a second, but we knew we didn't want to be too full as we continued our adventuring in the area. This Dirty Bagels is located in Smithfield Market and it was surrounded by a lot of other food and shopping options. They also have communal seating available right by the stand which makes it easy to stop and eat or take your sandwich on the go. This would be a must stop for me anytime I'm in the area.

Definitely worth a try!

Both staff workers were incredibly friendly and patient with me as I counted out my pounds (foreign to any overseas tourist). The tea wasn't very strong, but it was certainly hot.

I also ordered a veggie samosa with my takeaway and got everything for under 5 quid. I'll be back before my trip ends! Fantastic service and better than average breakfast.

Their north African tagines and meatballs are well worth a try if you are lucky enough to come across them on a day they are available, and the potato dauphinoise is a guilty pleasure, it tastes sooo good, but you can almost hear your heart cry out in fear as the creamy, garlicky goodness hits your tongue... There is always a queue for the takeaway sandwiched/salads and though I can't vouch for these personally, they can't be too bad as I occaisionally see repeat visitors in the cold food queue... Not perhaps my summertime favourite, but the sheer comfort food factor means I have been known to dabble here in the warmer months when hungover...

Huge selections of other wraps, paninis, ciabattas etc on offer. The hot food selections is also great and changes, the last time I was here I got lasagne, with butternut squash stew and a lovely butter bean stew on the side, a huge lunch for just £4.40 eat in.
