Very disappointing Bagels. Not close to a NY bagel. Soft like white bread except tough chewy crust. In the Indy area stay with Einstein Bagels ... They are a better choice. It appears that Big Apple may have even microwaved the bagel and cream cheese. Despite that the service was excellent and the coffee reasonable Former NY resident in Indy 20+ years read more

We stopped in while running errands on this side of town. This place (not this store in particular, but the company) was my girlfriends first job as a teenager. When we realized we were nearby one we had to stop in. It's a standard bagel place good for breakfast or lunch, and it's inexpensive - but also nothing special. Glad we tried it but it's not something we'll crave nor make a point to return. read more

Great Bagels! Great Coffee& De-Caf. Very Nice Service! They are very helpful & patient. Lots to choose from on menu! A Great Treat! read more

I think the bagels here are decent. Not NYC bagel-worthy by any means, but good for a midwestern chain place. I'd rank them slightly better than Einstein's, but not as good as Bruegger's (RIP!). Service here is always fairly quick and very friendly. read more

I was drawn in by the name, and the name disappointed. NYC bagels, these are not. Bread + cream cheese = just fine, but not enough to draw me back over Panera or Einstein. Truth in advertising, people. read more

Love this place!!! I'm from the east coast and these bagels are as good as any from there. My go-to bagel place now!

Favorite weekend spot for breakfast that my fiancee and I can agree on. So many bagel flavors and cream cheese flavors. While he enjoys those options, I enjoy the breakfast sandwhich options. Plenty to choose from with egg, meat, or veggies to pile on top and toast it! One of the drawbacks is the price on the beverages. Seems a little high for those products but that is your only option so you go for it. Grant it, I don't just drink black coffee so that might be why the price is higher. Great selection of muffins and cinnamon rolls but haven't tried them. Will have to come back in when I have a sweet tooth attach! read more

This is the best bagel place in town! They are made fresh daily and have great employees. I always get the strawberry bagel and it's soft and perfect every time. I would definitely recommend BAB's to anyone in town. read more

It was good I had a plain bagel southern tradition. I ordered 3 mini banana nut muffins,they were really dried and it seemed like it was sitting there for years "too dry" read more

The only place in the area that I can find salt bagels. Although the staff can be snotty, it's worth the food and coffee! read more

I had a craving for a quick breakfast sandwich and the last time I went to McDonald's breakfast I was like, "why am I spending over $6 for this crap". Instead, I went to Big Apple Bagels and got an everything bagel with egg, sausage patty, cheese, and pepper for $4.20. I was in and out in 5 minutes on a Friday morning. The restaurant seemed clean and well staffed as several people dined in. I took my sandwich to go and it was steaming hot as I took my first bite. The bagel had a crisp outside and a nice chewy texture. Garlic stood out as the predominant flavor. The eggs, sausage, and cheese were not the highest quality, but better than fast food. Overall, Big Apple is a pretty good choice for a quick sandwich. I will be back and recommend for the overall value. read more

I highly recommend this place to anyone that enjoys a fast, delightful little bagel breakfast. The french toast bagel with pumpkin spread is my favorite, while my husband prefers the jalapeño bagel with jalapeño spread. We both love the cinnamon toast lattes as well. I highly recommend Big Apple Bagels to anyone that is tired of the other breakfast chains in Indy. The customer service is supurb, along with the food! read more

These are not bagels. They are lovely bread shaped like a bagel, but if you're looking for a bagel, this is not it. The name threw me off. I figured with Big Apple in the name, that I would get a boiled normal sized bagel rather than a giant piece of very soft bread. Nope. There is room in the world for lovely bread and this bread is indeed lovely. But there's no need to call it a bagel. read more

The muffins here are so good. Triple berry is my go to for all muffins ever. The cinnamon rolls are dry and the coffee is just okay. I have paid with discover several times and then told they have never taken that card from the owner. I think the staff is friendly but dread seeing the owner at check out. His personality is off putting. read more

Try the Turkey Havarti on a Swiss bagel! You will never want to eat anything else in your life!! So good! Always happy with this place plus my little sister works there and they treat her well! Great ownership and amazing bagels! I just wish this place was closer to on my way to work! read more

I stopped in here with my fiancé recently after not having been here in a few years and it reminded me how forgettable they are. I ordered a cinnamon and raisin bagel with cinnamon and sugar on it. They didn't ask if I wanted it warm or not so I didn't tell them. I received a hard bagel that was together like a sandwich and the sugar was sprinkled on the outside. As a restaurant, they should know to ask some major questions like when I go to subway, they always ask if I want it toasted or not. The flavor of my bagel was a little flat as well. It was filling but that's all I can say. Guess I will stick to Einsteins from now on. read more

I love this place, but I had to give it only 3 stars do to the lack of organization. The muffins are killer and the food it great, but the service needs work. On numerous occasions, I have missed my muffin from either the employees forgetting it a together or the person shouting names for pick up isn't loud enough and does not repeat. Same situation with the speciality coffee drinks and smoothies, so pay extra attention if you order any of the three. Otherwise, work checking out, if only for a muffin, which they have a wide variety of flavors. read more

When there are more employees working then customers in the restaurant it should not take 15 minutes to make a non toasted turkey sandwich. If they would speed things up a bit I would give them four stars. read more

It's not as good as the one in Avon but I'm probably biased after a few years of being a regular there. The customer service is always quick and courteous and the food is good. Somehow the cream cheese always melts and makes a mess which didn't happen at the other location. Or maybe I'm just getting to be a messy eater as I age. ;) read more

The bagels here are yummy! I tried the swiss melt bagel and wow! I was pleasantly surprised. Their options are amazing! They have egg bagels!! I haven't been able to find egg bagels anywhere in the Midwest. I am a Jersey girl and these bagels definitely remind me of home. read more

Staffs are friendly. Bagels taste fresh. My Favorite place for breakfast or early lunch. It's always crowded that's the only downsize.

Can't go wrong with the everything bagel and veggie cream cheese. Spacious interior and easy parking.

Their bagel sandwiches are delicious and their mini muffins are to die for! A nice alternative to donuts at the office ;)

I tried Big Apple for the first time a couple weeks ago when I brought bagels to work, and again just this morning for my family. First, I will say the bagels were really good on both occasions. Great flavor selection and really good chew, even when toasted. There does seem to be some inconsistency in density and shape (holes were really large today and bagels didn't have much height) but still they tasted great. The "but" to this is that unfortunately, the counter folks are either unhappy in their jobs or not cut out to interact with the public. It's not that they were rude but would it kill them to greet customers, with a smile and not make you feel like you are interrupting their break? Maybe I caught the wrong people on both visits but I didn't hear the other 3 people working there being any more welcoming or smiling. Seems like a tough place to work. read more

My family loves Big Apple Bagels! The breakfast sandwiches, bagels, and muffins are always fresh and very tasty.

Amazing food. I adored the food and they had a large variety. They did seem a little under staffed, but boy was it good. I got a bagel sandwich thing and a cherry cheesecake that was great. It's perfect for when you need a kick starter for the day and it has a great location. read more

I'm addicted! They have a garden herb bagel with veggie cream cheese that is to die for! The staff is very friendly. I've been two or three times now and have enjoyed every bite each time. read more

As a potential "new customer", we were motivated to try this location at 10:30am after receiving a flyer in the mail which had a large picture of a "Breakfast Bagel". An attached coupon stated FREE SANDWICH in large letters. As we were looking over the breakfast sandwich selections, the counter person mentioned that the coupon only applied to Deli Sandwiches (the coupon does state Deli Sandwiches in smaller letters). We expressed our confusion with the ad flyer showing the picture of a large "Breakfast Bagel". This is a "gotcha" moment for Big Apple Bagels and their AD Agency which leaves the potential customer frustrated. With no negotiation to accommodate us, we left in search of a better bagel store. read more

My first experience at big apple was like whoa.... you mean your NOT just bagels? But a bunch of other foodies too?! I straight lined to the cup cakes. I have to admit the food channel had forever changed the way I look at cup cakes forever, especially my own disappointing regular "straight-out-of-the-box creations (yeah so sad and unoriginal. Could you imaging sending those to your kids school functions today?! Lol! Haha! Not a chance.) So. The edibles in the glass smelled so good I knew we had to toast them and of course, they did. Get em nice and warm, ohh, lala. I was the newbie so we tried a bit of the crowd pleasers and I too was in cupcake-sized heaven. My special favorite (so far) is the cheese cake. .... yum. So I hear they do good food also; and since I must find balance in my diet I WILL HAVE TO COME BACK! Will try smoothie next! Maybe a healthier bagel too?? But only if they're toasted (word on steet is people enjoy the extra offer of warmed&/toasted). They just hide there in plain sight! with so much to offer. ... are they a gem wirh Yelp waiting to expose them. ... possible so... time will tell. read more
