    UPDATE: I would suggest never letting them cut the bagels because over half of them were cut from the top slanted down to the bottom and one was actually cut from top to bottom. Four of them could not even go into the toaster if I wanted them too. The bagels are fantastic, but they're cutting skills Are severely lacking if you want to toast a bagel. If you just want pieces of a bagel then you're set. This by far is the best bagel place in Northeast Florida! It is truly difficult to find a decent bagel around Jacksonville and Saint Augustine however, this is a true local owned gem! The bagels are prepared fresh with a variety of flavors including ghost pepper bagel (not something I'm brave enough to try. They had ample pumpernickel bagel, which is one of my favorites and they will cut them through a machine for free. The customer service is outstanding. I was greeted with a smile and she was very patient as I was selecting the bagels. The atmosphere is warm, friendly and inviting and has a small hint of a New York deli. Even though it's a bit of a drive, it was worth every single mile! Between the outstanding bagels and the customer service you cannot go wrong here.

    Bagel with Cream Cheese & Lox

    I was craving a solid lox bagel and found this bagel place close by on 210. I was lucky getting there at 9:30 to have gotten a bagel at all. This place is hopping!!! I saw many people order ahead to make sure they got their bagels. So much so I ordered the last everything bagel, or so I thought. It was already called for by an online order. Garlic was what I ended on. Delicious! Scallion cream cheese and all the lox fixings. It hit the spot so well. Will come back!!

    Very busy bagel shop but A hidden diamond in the rough. The line was out the door. I ordered a half dozen of bagels. 2 french toast, 2 cinnamon raisin and 2 everything bagel with honey walnut cheese spread. I had to wait 15 minutes for the cinnamon raisin bagels which are a hot commodity. There is no bagel shop close to us. The next closet Bagel shop is in Mandarin, bagels R us. I was not a fan. However, Bite a Bagel, I am a fan. This place hit the baseball right out of the park! Homerun!

    This place is my go to for bagels. It gets REAL busy on the weekends, but worth the sit. Staff is also super friendly. They do have some tables, but I always get to go. Best bagels I've had in the area by far.

    For some odd reason, I have never once visited this shop since I moved around this area in 2005 til this day. My manager was amazed and told me to try it this weekend. And so, I did. Lol. Came here with my sister and the shop was quite busy, but not hectic. Opened the door and smelled the great fresh coffee and bagels. Nice and cute decor and the staff were friendly. We ordered: - Everything bagel w/Lox Spread - 1/2 dozen bagels (blueberry, 2 asiagos, 2 wheats and a garlic) The lox spread was amazing and I love savory tastes. Based on their website, lox is raw sugar cured smoked salmon. This cream cheese spread was also mixed with capers, scallops and a hint of lemon. The family enjoyed the bagels as well. I recommend this place and would love to revisit again and try their hot bagel menu and coffee.

    lox with veggie cream cheese on a sesame seed bagel
    Lynnea B.

    These bagels are extremely fluffy, doughy, starchy, and filling- just how I like them! My favorite is the sesame seed but the everything is a close runner up. They have an outstanding selection of cream cheese, I enjoy the scallion cream cheese or the veggie cream cheese as an upgrade to my usual lox bagel. Whenever I'm craving a New York style bagel, this is the first place that comes to mind. The bread is fresh and fluffy!

    After reading negative reviews, we opted to try this nearby bagel place anyway. We read about long waits and bad service, so when a friendly cashier quickly got our order together, we were delighted. There was barely any wait on this late Saturday morning. There were also warnings on the wall that wait times may be long - so they do acknowledge it may be a part of your experience. The bagels and cream cheese were moderately priced and pretty delicious. I had an Asiago with jalapeño cream cheese, my husband had Asiago with bacon cheddar (yummy and smoky), and my daughter had chocolate chip. We all enjoyed are heavily cream cheesed creations. I got the flavored coffee which was like Jamaican coconut or something. It was really good. Not super strong but typical taste of flavored coffees. (Think Panera's hazelnut). Also the staff seemed chipper and busy. It was a casual vibe with a little outside seating. We will certainly be back!

    Was in the area and stopped by for a quick bite. They offer online ordering and you can just pick up outside the front door to help with social distancing and if you are on a time crunch. I went inside an ordered as there was no line at the time. They have an impressive menu that offers breakfast and lunch sandwiches along with traditional bagels and spreads ranging Inna variety of flavors. The sign out front showed that they have seasonal flavors like pumpkin right now as well. I went basic and ordered a blueberry bagel with blueberry cream cheese & french toast bagel with walnut spread. Seating inside is labeled for customers dinning in only to help with social distancing. Once you place a to go order you have to wait outside with the online orders. There are social distancing markers on the floor when you come in to order. The staff is was friendly and helpful.

    Be prepared to wait 30+ minutes on a simple bagel. They need a better process to serve people faster.

    It's a Metro Diner so generally speaking everything is good. I was here for a late-ish breakfast…read morewhile killing time. Good service (Thank you, Matthew!) It is a new place as everything is in St. John's. Clean and well-lighted. My only real gripe was that I ordered a 3-egg breakfast platter and the amount of scrambled eggs was 1.5 at best. Certainly not three. I did not bring it to my server's attention. But the server should be checking this sort of thing before he leaves for the table. Pet peeve of many breakfast restaurants in N.E. Florida... why does no one butter the toast in the kitchen before serving it? Is it a law or health code thing? Do I need to ask them to butter the toast?Somebody please advise. Thanks.

    My good buddy bezos last night decided it was a great idea to drink a bunch and then take 5…read moreshotguns at around 4am. The other part of the group also drank their life away, and because of this you always need to go to a diner the next day. It was a pleasant afternoon.. the birds were chirping, the sky was partly cloudy, and the wind felt cool. The group stumbled on Metro Diner which looked very appealing! We were told by a couple nice people that it was only a 15 minute wait which was perfectly fine so we went to Publix and bought a couple things. When we came back we were seated outside with a friendly waiter who got us going right away. The ogre kept saying how she wanted fried chicken and waffles, but then got nervous because it was 2000 calories.. like what? "You're on vacation just get the chicken and waffles." She was already overweight anyways so why not add more fuel to the fire. Anyways onto what we got! Me: egg scramble bowl with avocado and bacon. And oatmeal with fruit My good Buddy Bezos: burger bowl Doctor Bs wife: avocado egg sandwich thing Tragic: your classic eggs, toast, sausage, homefried The heaviest girl ever: Belgian waffle and some fruit? Okay pause.. how do you go from I WANT CHICKEN AND WAFFLES to mmm I'll have a waffle and some fruit! Okay anyways onto the reviews of the food itself! Doctor Bs wife: Really good Tragic: Mid Ogre: My eggs tasted like the were sitting out a while, the waffle wasn't hot but still good and I wish it was warmer and the butter was hard and cold My good buddy bezos: actually he was in the shower so I didn't get his review, but I know he liked it, that burger bowl actually looked good. Me: Yeah I mean I am a sucker for scrambled bowl with hollandaise sauce, I definitely have had way better, but the taste was there. I would like to add that I basically finished my entire meal before tragic or the wife got theirs. It will be shown in the photos below. I tried to be polite and wait, but after 5 minutes without their food showing up I had to eat I was starving. It's kind of crazy to me that me ogre and my good buddy bezos were first. I would think that the classic plate of tragics would be easy, as well as the sandwich because it's just the same stuff in my bowl just between bread somewhat. I enjoyed the ambiance and the feel of the place for sure. The music that was playing was also enjoyable, so initially I was at a three but because of those factors along with the fact that I did somewhat like my food more than the others (which is rare) and don't feel terrible after that's why we stand at a four. I would like to clarify every place has its own rating system. Like you cannot compare a fancy restaurant to a diner although they are still deemed a 4 on my page. Sorry anyways, the prices were also really reasonable and we had a good time. Maybe next year when we are back around here we will come back! It was good!
