    BEC on Pumpernickel
    Patrick Z.

    Fire BEC on pumpernickel, the way they wrap up the cheese in the egg is like beautiful honestly. Bagel was nice and fluffy. Got a tropical smoothie too since I just finished a run, and I chose the Tropical Sunshine. It was pretty good and really fresh, although I did wish it was a bit sweeter, not in the sense of extra sugar but I feel the fruits themselves werent as sweet as normal but it still was a great pair to the sandwich.

    The sandwiches are sooo good!! I'm going to make this a must stop every time I am in !!

    Ok so being 100% honest it wasn't what I expected. It wasn't bad. Just not what I expected. I had a Reuben on ciabatta. It tasted more like a corned beef with Big Mac special sauce. Good but not a Reuben. The wife had some sort of southwestern chicken sandwich that tasted really good. For some reason it came up when I searched for bagels and we weren't too far of a walk away. It had been a long day and it hit the spot. It's a decent sandwich shop but you're better off hitting a deli if you want that NY experience. There's a very small bench area inside so incredibly limited seating. Outside there is seating and a few pigeons. Walking distance from ground zero and the 9/11 museum. I should have taken some food pics. The pigeons were more fun.

    The holy grail of delicious bagels and sandwiches! Came here after reading other reviews and so glad we did. I had the bacon, egg and cheese on a garlic bagel and my friend ordered a chopped cheese sandwich is pretty much like a ground beef, adobo and cheese sandwich with lettuce and tomatoes on a hero roll. They have great service as well. It's a small place so not much room to sit for large parties or strollers so we sat out at the little bench areas near by. I am definitely coming back here anytime I'm in NYC Go here for breakfast or lunch, you won't regret it !!!

    Unassuming and hard to find if you aren't looking. It is a narrow shop so if more than 5-7 people are in here it would be packed. It is a small spot but packs a punch. They have freshly made cookies which I has. The churro nutella were awesome and I would reorder. The muffins looked delicious as well. I would however go with the bagels. Large fluffy and delicious. The turkey sandwich I got on a bagel was lovely. Would definitely come back.

    Tribeca sandwich on a hero
    Andrew L.

    Great sandwich! Had walked by but did not realize the variety of sandwiches that Brooklyn Bread Cafe offers until coming across their menu on Seamless. Had the Tribeca sandwich on a hero - nicely prepared and a good size. Will need to come back to try some of the other sandwiches.

    Best bagel i've ever had!! So many options for everyone. Very big portions. More of a grab and go vibe unless you want outside seating

    Best breakfast spot in NYC hands down. It's agreeable that NYC has the best bagels, and this spot takes the win. Lots of options and very customizable for anyone and everyone. Coffee is great too. We will be visiting each time we come.

    French Toast

    Perfectly chewy bagels. Love the large sized bagels. They have an array of standard bagels and some specialty ones aa well, like the Prosciutto Bagel. French Toast Bagel and Whole Wheat Ciabatta Bagel. The also have a large sandwich board with deli favorites. Very clean space. Counter seating and a few tables outside as well. Hot spot for construction workers in that area- just saying lol. Friendly Staff.

    Ordered on their website. 15 minute pick up time ended up being 38. It was a quicker wait for the people who ordered in the store - saw one girl get in and out in 20 minutes. Very little room to stand and wait inside. The people working there were definitely rushing and doing a good job getting things out, but would've appreciated a better ETA. Felt like there could've been more meat on the sandwich. And they forgot an ingredient I paid extra for. Disappointing.

    Egg bagel and coffee
    Irene L.

    The bagels here are very good. I had the egg bagel with cream cheese for $4.75. Texture was soft and delicious. Fast service and there are stools and tables here. The coffee here is standard.

    Dennis G.

    This is an excellent little bagel shop in Tribeca. I recommend them for quality bagels, cookies and coffee.

    The Bushwick on an everything!!!
    Chris H.

    Nice bagel spot in lower Manhattan near the World Trade Center. The service was quick, the bagels crunchy and big, and they have a rather large menu to choose from. One of these will keep you full most of the day. The coffee was good too. Only drawback, there were only a few stools for indoor seating so we sat outside. Still it's a good place to grab a bagel breakfast.

Decor/actual restaurant: This particular location is very small and tight with limited in-store seating. The interior is cute, I like the blue color theme they have here. For a restaurant designed for to-go orders, I believe that there could be more waiting room and a couple less chairs. Service: Like many "fast food adjacent" restaurants, the people who work there have good customer service but I imagine deal with the worst. I know they're doing great with the situation they're in. Kudos to them. Food: this is probably my harshest critique. I ordered a pesto chicken sandwich, and it was fine. I don't believe it was worth the $16 I spent though. The chicken was kind of bland, tasted similarly to frozen grilled chicken pieces you buy from a grocery store. I do wish there was more sauce. The pesto tasted good but overall there was too much bread. I fear you would be better off making something like this at home for a comparable price. The bread was good, just too much. I don't want to base the menu on this sandwich alone, a lot of the menu options sounded delicious, but this was just the experience I had!

The fact it was in a common neighborhood made it even more enjoyable of a visit! Now to the sandwich..This sandwich itself DEFINITELY lives up to the hype! It really is the REAL DEAL!! Maybe they should change the name to "Da Bomb", because it's that's good! However, through no fault of anyone, this is the learning experience I take back for my next visit: 1) Extra lettuce, tomatoes, onions, hot peppers. Potato Salad IF extra hot peppers! 2) Bring reusable containers for your sandwich, especially if you're not going home/ hotel right away. Next visit, which will be my next visit to NYC, I intend to try the roast beef and turkey hero, extra lettuce, tomatoes, onions, hot peppers. Overall, I still rate 5/5. They do a fantastic job here. Service is awesome, food is fresh, and the amount of food they offer for the price is well worth it. Definitely worth visiting again and again!!

    ((4.5 stars)) Sunny…read moreand Annie's is very much a 24/7 neighborhood gem of a corner store and deli. it's packed with packaged foods--candy, chips, cookies, ice cream, soft drinks, beer, and a lot more plus the deli counter serves ups an endless list of creative sandwiches. i am not going to say this place is cramped but it kinda is. for example, if people stand in the wrong areas of the store, it will cause a complete standstill of a traffic jam in the store. my advice: order from the deli (and stand somewhere people aren't trying to get to) or grab whatever you need, pay, and leave. this place is not a place to linger. keep it moving. anyway, the obvious draw of Sunny & Annie's is the endless list of sandwiches that are handwritten cards that are stuck outside glass of the deli counter. there is literally something for the pickiest eaters--from hot sandwiches, cold sandwiches, wraps, and more. some sandwiches are named celebrities, politicians, etc. i have ordered a bunch of different sandwiches and have not made it through much of the menu. you can also create your own Frankenstein monster of a sandwich. while the sandwiches are a big part of the draw, the insane amount of snack foods crammed into the store is quite remarkable from the large stand of Doritos, Takis, Cheetos and other popular branded snack foods in the front to the separate stand of Wise snacks to an entire back corner of the store filled with all kinds of chips, popcorn, etc. imo, Sunny's has the freshest-tasting Smartfood Cheddar Popcorn. i know an insane take consider it's a packaged popcorn snack from a megacorp (PepsiCo), but i'll die on this hill. maybe it's cause Sunny's sells a lot of Smartfood popcorn so it gets refreshed often, maybe they have a secret in/pipelinbe from the factory, or it's just magic/alchemy. i don't know, but the Smartfood Cheddar Popcorn never tastes stale-ish like it does at grocery stores, the bags never feel deflated because they have been on shelf long, and the popcorn never has that soft mouthy feel but still has the crunch to it. maybe it's just me, but Sunny's serves a great list of sandwiches...AND the freshest Smartfood Cheddar Popcorn. beyond the snacks, the service from the deli to cashier is upbeat and friendly. in all seriousness, Sunny and Annie's is an Avenue B institution at this point and remains a charming family-owned store--and is NOT a sterile modern clone of a neighborhood business.
