    I really like the Ess-a-bagel in midtown and was a little disappointed by the quality of this one in comparison. The menu is smaller which is understandable but unfortunately I thought the quality of the bagels were not as good as the midtown location either. The Time Out Market is very nice to look at view of the city and Brooklyn and Manhattan bridges though so i recommend checking out the market. Just don't expect the same quality of bagel as at the midtown location.

    Realistically I would give this location 3.5 stars. It wasn't amazing and it wasn't bad. It was good so I'm going to lean towards the 3 star side. We had their signature bagel on everything. I had a few bagels during my NYC visit. This was in the middle and the score says so too. The service was fine. The market is amazing with so many options. At the end of the day you'll probably wish you had gotten food from another place after making your choice. If you ar win the mood for a bagel it won't disappoint but it probably won't blow you away either.

    The salmon bagel was sooooo good favorite lox bagel during trip. The toppings with it were so good the red onion and lettuce made it to be honest This is really expensive though like $19 sandwich but they filled the lox to the brimmmm it was a thick layer of fish

    I love a good bagel and this was a recommendation from my husband's boss. Service was good, they, have plenty of options, prices seem fair. I think my expectations were set too high because I was told that they blow Goldberg's bagels out of the water. This was not my experience. I had an everything bagel with egg and cheese and it was good, but no where near the best bagel I have ever had. I don't think I would even call it great. However we were really glad we made the trip over to the market place because the views are amazing out front and if we hadn't tried Ess-a-Bagel we would have had fomo.

    Oh man, I was so pumped to find this bagel place after hearing about it on Tik Tok. I was fully prepared to see a long line but this location is inside of an enclosed street market and I went right when it opened, so there was only like one or two people around. I ordered an everything bagel with cream cheese because I wanted a good NY bagel while visiting and Ess-A-Bagel delivered! I especially loved the generous helping of cream cheese-- I hate when places skimp out. The latte I ordered was also a great boost to start my day. Definitely recommend this place!

    I'm a guy from Long Island, what the hell do I know about getting good bagels in the boroughs? I consider myself like Kung Fu, I travel the land and try the best regional specialties. Ess-a-bagel is one of my top five bagels in NYC. To have them located in The Time Out Market is awesome. I have my wife with me, I could have drove to Russ & Daughters for a quality bagel but I want to sit and sip some hot coffee and enjoy breakfast. Ess-a-bagel Brooklyn here we come. It's early in the morning and I find a parking spot close to the market, yay! We place our order for the Signature Favorite bagel. I asked for the bagel to be toasted and watched them create the signature which is stuffed with Nova Lox, Scallion Cream Cheese, Crispy Bacon, Avocado, Red Onion, Capers, Lettuce and Tomato. When I ordered, my wife said no to Bacon, Avocado and Red Onions thankyouverymuch. This is the Time Out market, there are communal tables for everyone to sit and enjoy their purchases. The toast on the bagel wasn't toasted at all and the bagel was a little doughy for my personal taste. But all is forgiven when they added the Nova Lox, Scallion Cream Cheese and Capers. Capers?! Yesssss.. This was an added treat, that salty pop made this a bagel treat fun to eat. Ess-a, thanks for making a good Bagel & Lox.

    Ess-a-Bagel Wanted to check out Brooklyn and their Time-Out Market today. Haven't had a bagel during my stay in NY yet so I gave this place a try. I got their Signature Favorite: Nova Lox, Scallion Cream Cheese, Crispy Bacon, Avocado, Red Onion, Capers, Lettuce and Tomato (17.95). It was okay, wasn't anything special in particular. I was a bit disappointed, hoping the bagel would've taste more fresh. This market place was probably not the best place to look for an authentic bagel experience

    I didn't realize it was in a food court before I went. At 8am on Sunday, it was pretty empty and the lines were short (about 5 people waiting to order before us), but the bagel wasn't particularly fresh. I found it chewy and tough, unfortunately.

    This was a great experience after Brooklyn bridge, sitting down to a lovely bagel. Highly recommend and great service

    Morning Classic

    Got the morning classic bagel - really nice and lovely staff, would go again. Loads of seating area too which was great

    Egg, cheddar, & tomato on plain bagel
    Alyssa M.

    The bagel here was absolutely delicious, but since I'm from Florida, I think that of all New York bagels! They messed up our order, giving my mom lettuce instead of tomato on hers, and switching which sandwich was on which type of bagel. The service was fine otherwise, but not very accurate. The ambiance is nice but a little overwhelming since it is in a food hall.

    Lox signature sandwich bagel

    Dang should've read the other reviews before I ordered from here. The service was rude. They claimed they couldn't see the screen when I pointed to the item on the menu (they could've have just leaned over the counter to see the screen). They gave a buzzer to pick up the order but never rang it, so after 10 minutes of waiting I decided to check on my order and found it waiting on the counter. The lox bagel itself was ok. It had too much cream cheese and was overly salty. That being said, it's hard to go wrong with a lox bagel so overall it still a solid lox bagel if you're in the mood for one. The restaurant stall area itself is fine. It is in the middle of the Time Out Market so there are a lot people, but we managed to find a table nearby. It is a bit loud because there are a lot of people, but that is to be expected.

    Best bagels around. Super filling and soft. So many options it'd take over a year to try them all but we have 2 down. Regular cream cheese and burger. Service was super quick and easy to see why there's almost always a line. Ambiance is cute but I'd rather eat it somewhere else as it can get quite packed.

    Not exaggerating. Took 35 mins for my food AND coffee. If you're hungry or in a rush. Not the place to go. Bagels were also burnt.

    I mean there's a reason they've been around as long as they have. This is old school jewish deli…read morelove in the best way possible. I asked for their advice on what kind of lox to order and they cut me a healthy slice to try of each. And the lox is to die for. The nova is the classic, but also got some gravlax and the pastrami lox. All had their unique flavors that were distinctly different. Amazing! And yes ~$60/pound is expensive, but it's artisan, hand carved and they even cut out the little bit of blood line so every bit is perfect. It's worth the splurge every once in a while. I will say though the bagels there were just meh unfortunately. Kinda average and on this day below average if you ask me. So ideal...get your bagel somewhere else like Bagel Pub or Utopia and then get your lox here!

    Made the effort to finally try this famous establishment after it existing on my bookmarks for who…read moreknows how long. It was about a 20 minute wait from enter the shop, grabbing a ticket, waiting for your number to be called, ordering the sandwich, getting the food and paying. Waiting for your number to be called happens faster than you think as people do drop out like flies, so just be patient. If you order yourself a Classic Bagel & Lox Sandwich ($17) like I did, you can watch them filet the salmon fresh from the fish itself to be used just for your sandwich. I did everything bagel and choose Scallion cream cheese, which seems like the popular choice. It's good enough to go out of the way to try once in your life. To be a repeat customer, idk if I want to wait in line for this every weekend. Additionally, there's no seating besides the benches that's outside. I do have to give it to them, among the chaos, the employee that helped me was super friendly. I also saw some of the customers get salmon samples of the salmon for the lox. Idk if they asked or the employee just happened to be offering it.

    I was in the neighborhood looking for a bagel place to eat and a nice person recommended this spot…read more So I went there to try them out. It's a pretty spacious bagel spot with ample seating menu's with pricing for all items they sell which is helpful. Food: 3/5 I ordered a jalapeño bagel with turkey bacon, and scrambled eggs. The bagel was okay nothing to rave about your standard bagel. Nothing to make me fave about it. The texture was chewy and a bit doughy if you like your bagels that texture this may be the spot for you. Overall my bagel was about 10-12$ I believe. They charge extra for a rainbow bagel and other specialty bagels like jalapeño. Which is pretty expensive so make sure you're aware of that. Service: 3/5 The customer service was mediocre. The guy at the front wasn't the most pleasant. Very much get you in an out top of place. They weren't rude but not the most cheerful I'd say. Ambiance: 3/5 standers bagel shop nothing really impressive or spectacular. I will say when in the area due to the lack of places to eat that make REAL food. I have come back here and the bagels have been decent. Would like the staff to be more pleasant.

    This place is definitely a go to for bagels. The bagels are soft and delicious. Bagels are fresh…read moreand plentiful. They have many options available, and I do not believe there can be a bad combination. Orders are done quickly, so its great if you just need to get something fast.
