Napoleons are my favorite, but other pastries, croissants and muffins are all wonderful. For breakfast, the French Toast is a must. Omelettes are also wonderful. Owners are super friendly. Great experience for breakfast, lunch, or just a coffee and pastry. Outdoor seating available.

I must say, these bagels are the best in Monroe. They truly taste like authentic New York-style…read morebagels, and I absolutely love both the pastries and the bagels. That said, I'm disappointed with the way the shop is being managed. I'm not sure if the gentleman I encountered was the manager or the owner, but I've been there twice now and both times there were issues with overcharging. The first time, I noticed it but chose not to say anything. This past weekend, another customer spoke up after being charged for more bagels than he actually ordered and received. The gentleman handling the situation was extremely rude, and when it was proven they were wrong, he simply threw the money back onto the counter. It was very unprofessional and uncomfortable to witness. Please continue making your bagels the way you do because they're excellent, but customer service and professionalism matter too. There are plenty of bagel shops around, and people want to feel respected when they walk into a business.

However they were not at all like bialys should be. The bagels were just ok too. The shop was empty but it was still pretty slow service and they were not friendly, reluctant to answer any questions etc--almost like you were imposing on them for being there giving them business! Very odd.

This Manhattan Bagel does not miss! The staff are so friendly and are on top of it. This place can…read morebe super busy at times, but you are never neglected. Whether ordering online or in person, it's always quick and efficient. The manager/owner always seems to be there and is always checking in. I just had a blueberry bagel with butter today, but I've had plenty of bagels, breakfast sandwiches, breakfast wraps, and hot/iced coffees. It's always all so good. The bagels are always nice and soft, just how I like them. Pricing seems very fair compared to other establishments. There are probably half a dozen tables inside and a couple outside if you choose to eat there. Just a heads up, the parking lot is a bit tight and BUSY, so pay attention to make sure you can leave just with your order and not any extra bumps and bruises on your car, haha.

I ordered a bagel with cream cheese toasted and it was really cold. Other than that I would go back just take my bagel to go and toast myself at home! Coffee was okay, be prepared to make your own! You van ask for Almond milk they have in the front fridge.

This is a small business as well that provides real bagels, not the fake dunking donuts filled with preservatives.

The space is bright, clean, and inviting, which makes it an easy place to settle in for a morning bite.From a foodie standpoint, their menu really shines. The bagels have that perfect balance of chew and softness, and the sandwiches are stacked with fresh ingredients that actually taste like someone cared. Their hoagies are surprisingly impressive too...well‑built, flavorful, and satisfying without being overly heavy. Everything is always fresh, and while the prices run a bit high, the quality backs it up. I've never had a bad breakfast here, and the consistency keeps me coming back!

I only ordered coffee, which was pretty good, so I don't have anything to say about the food other than the breakfast sandwiches looked and smelled great. Service was pretty fast, but what I thought made it really great was that at some point, one of the guys who seemed to be on owner came out to talk to us for a little bit, even though his English was relatively limited, and he agreed to take a picture of all of us. That was pretty cool of him. Overall, charming little no-frills coffee and breakfast shop that you just order at the counter and can either sit down and enjoy your meal or just get going.

Carmen was super helpful and she reserved the last 4 bagels for me! I drove over and sure enough, the bagels were waiting for me. Carmen also told me that a new batch of Knicks bagels was going to be ready in 3 minutes, so I waited and bought a dozen. While the bagels were finishing their last few minutes of baking, I shared the Knicks fan love and gave the staff some Knicks friendship bracelets to spread the Knicks joy! They loved it, and I loved my bagels! Thanks Bagel Bazaar for all your help. The bagels also tasted mighty good and they're huge and puffy/fluffy! GO KNICKS! I opted to take my order to-go, but there are plenty of tabels to enjoy your food inside. The only negative was that the bagels were $3 each. Understandable because they take more effort to prepare. How many times have the Knicks been in the NBA Finals? So I went for it.

There's some diner-style seating inside but we were in a bit of a rush so we took our food to go. Service was really friendly and welcoming.
