    I ordered a bag on the too good to go app and happily a bakers dozen bagels were bagged for me at the end of the day, before closing. The bagels were very fresh and a real bargain for five dollars when they are regularly $15. There was a lot of free parking right in front and I was in and out quickly.

    A pretty good bagel place. They say it's the water, IDK about that, maybe NY style bagels. The egg sandwiches are very good. Eggs are scrambled , but fluffy. Quick pace, in and out in about 10 minutes, unless you call ahead. Plenty of tables and ample parking. Coffee choices are plentiful, cold or hot. And very good. A good place to go if you're on the run like me. I would place it one step ahead of Einstein.

    Quick service with so many coffee choices. I came in for the complimentary birthday sweet and enjoyed it with a great cup of iced coffee. The choices were a variety of different roasts and even a decaf choice. Next came the creamer flavors. Everything from French vanilla, hazelnut cream, and Irish cream to the usual plus almond milk. Then, on to the pumper of chocolate syrup or simple syrup. There are also ice cubes that are coffee flavored. It all went very well with my double chocolate chip cookie. The restaurant was pretty busy but the service was good and the restaurant was very clean.

    I'm not really into fancy breakfast sandwiches - I'm more of a toasted everything bagel with cream cheese on the side kind of girl. But my fiancé lovessssss the corned beef hash bagel so if that's your thing - it's definitely worth a try! Personally I'm the weirdo who switches to lunch if it's after 10, and the chicken salad on a bagel is my go-to. It's so good! Pro tip: ask for a side of vinaigrette to drizzle on top and thank me later.

    I was craving a bagel and lox for a light lunch and this place came up in yelp as being nearby. You order and pay at the counter -- and they bring your food to your table. There weren't any printed menus available to browse, just a not very well lit wall list of offerings. As there was a line behind me, I just selected a bagel with nova cream cheese. My husband ordered an everything bagel with the same cream cheese. Plus, we asked for one soft drink -- it's self-serve on the side of the room. It didn't take very long to get our food. As I looked at my bagel, however, I noticed that there wasn't the slightest bit of pink in my cream cheese -- especially compared to my husband's bagel. So, I returned it to the counter. They were nice enough to redo my bagel -- and even toasted it this time as previously requested and added in some of the correct cream cheese with some nova lox. We were hungry and it was food, so we ate it, but frankly it was a bit disappointing. I don't know if it is the "Brooklyn water" advertised heavily here or what. We've had bagels that we liked much better at other locations. But, I'm still glad we tried. Now we know this just isn't for us.

    If you're looking for a good bagel, this is a good place! They have a wide variety of bagels to choose from ranging from egg, salt, onion, everything, whole wheat everything, asiago, plain, cinnamon raisin, etc. They also have a bunch of cream cheeses that you can choose from such as scallion, nova, strawberry, plain, etc. I usually opt for the Asiago bagel with scallion or nova cream cheese and ask for it toasted. Their iced coffee here is good, the cubes are made of coffee. You can go to the self serve area and construct your iced coffee. They have a bunch of muffins to choose from as well and some breakfast bagel sandwiches! The sandwiches are good and are pictured in this review but I would recommend going for a regular bagel with some cream cheese.

    I love their coffee ice cubes

    Lots of bagel choices. Yummy sandwiches and the service is always really nice! The food is always fresh and doesn't take too long. This is a great spot for a breakfast sandwich on a Brooklyn bagel :) indoor seating and a few outdoor seats as well. Super casual, chill environment! Definitely get an iced coffee!!

    I asked for double toasted. Wasn't toasted at all. In fact, not one single bagel I've ever gotten from this location has been toasted

    I love BWB but there's something wrong with this location. It's such a simple ask for a bagel to be toasted, yet it NEVER is.

    We stopped in here today for lunch, having been to their other locations, we wanted to check this one out as well. There is parking available in this strip of stores and you might luck out and find one close by. We placed our orders and were given a numbered marker for the table. I ordered a Whole Wheat Everything Bagel toasted with Nova cream cheese spread. My wife ordered a Plain bagel (since they don't offer Rye bagels - her favorite), with the Nova cream cheese spread also. Our orders took a few minutes to arrive table side. my bagel was correct nut my wife's bagel just had plain cream cheese (sans Nova). We checked the receipt and saw that we were both charged for the Nova spread so my wife took hers back to the counter. The manager made a new bagel for her and delivered it with apologies. The place was busy but not in the middle of a rush, so you'd think the kitchen would actually read the ticket for each order more carefully.

    First time here

    Standing room only in this bagel place. Gives you some time to figure out what you want. Lots of everything flavor bagels. Open for breakfast and lunch and I would think the early arrivals get the best choices. Our party enjoyed the bagels. House made schmeer.

The bagels here are fresh enough that they don't need a toaster to begin with, which is exactly why I asked for it untoasted. Even with the unnecessary trip through the toaster, it was still a really good sandwich. The tuna salad is creamy, well seasoned, and they even let me sample it before ordering, which is always appreciated. Confidence in your food says a lot. The pickle on the side had that perfect crisp snap every good deli pickle should have. The only thing that missed the mark was the macaroni salad. The flavor is there, but the pasta was overcooked and a little mushy. If they tighten that up, it's an easy win. The restaurant itself is surprisingly large, clean, and comfortable, and everyone I dealt with was genuinely friendly. Overall, this is the kind of neighborhood bagel shop you hope to find. Good food, good people, and just enough personality to make you want to come back.
