I thoroughly enjoyed the BEC on a roll. The bacon was plentiful. Lots of cheese. Flavorful. The roll was soft. I also tried a salt bagel toasted with cream cheese and it was also delicious. Friendly staff and quick service. read more

This is by far my favorite bagel spot! The bagels are always perfectly fresh -- you can literally smell them baking as soon as you walk in, and it's impossible not to get hungry right away. There's a wide variety and cream cheeses, so whether you want something classic or a little different, there's always a great choice. Everything I've tried has been delicious. The staff is another reason I keep coming back -- they're always friendly, attentive, and make you feel welcome. It's the kind of place that turns a quick bagel run into a little highlight of your day. read more

Keep it simple when going here. They have many options when it comes to ordering bagels. The bagels are pretty good! Parking in front of the store can be hit or miss. There is no seating inside. Never had a problem with service here as well. read more

Solid bagel spot conveniently located in downtown! Fresh, doughy bagels and speedy service. Placed a pick up order and everything was ready in 12 minutes! It's not on their menu explicitly called out, but they do have avocado (it's an avocado smash). I got a sesame bagel with egg, cheese and avocado and my fiance got the same just with sausage. Both bagels came out to $13 which was a good deal for how filling it was. Would recommend! read more

Gems - Broadway Bagels - a half eaten sandwich and a cup of coffee - Bagels Near Me - South Amboy, New Jersey

So Gems has bought Broadway Bagels and they are now making their breakfast sandwiches on the flat top. 100% better. My bacon egg and cheese was perfect. The everything bagel was able to steam with the hot bacon and egg in the foil just exactly the way I like it on the way home. Soft and warm bagel with a hot fried egg, gooey cheese and salty bacon with the sweet hint of ketchup and some spicy pepper... just hits the spot. Also didn't leave me so full I couldn't function. Their bagels are a nice size for sandwiches this way. Very happy with the new management of this establishment. read more

i am soley writing about their asiago & spinach bagel... i came in with plans to get a plain bagel to eat at home then i turned and noticed these specialty bagels in the glass counter by the register. when i asked the young woman at the counter what it was, just the sound of it while she described it made me salivate. a chewy bagel with melted asiago cheese and a sprinkle of chopped spinach on top... AND everything seasoning on the crisp bottom. i warmed it up on the oven and put on some scallion cream cheese i had in the fridge... and WOW! i think i found my favorite bagel! give them a chance- at least for their bagels and friendly service! read more

I was just in there to get something to eat and a cup of coffee the gentleman behind the counter was waiting on two girls a man walked in with a suit proceeded to go to the bathroom and walk to the back he comes out I believe he may have called him mayor as he walked out from the back. Now I am there waiting five minutes I was clearly the next person in line. The man behind the counter motion to this person for coffees. I clearly was a Mirage at that point .. if this was indeed the mayor of South Amboy which I really don't know but whoever you are shame on you for cutting in front of me because I wanted a damn coffee as well this morning! Not my first time there but certainly will be my last! Not cool and not good business!!.. read more

got there at closing but they took my order and did not rush me... got a everything bagel with pork and eggs ... very good

Great bagels. Great service. Young owner who retained the previous owner and employees you g people that care. Good coffee. Great location.

I've been on a kick for breakfast sandwiches lately. This place is amazing! The service is quick and friendly. Place is clean and organized and the sandwich is one of the best I've ever had! Pork roll egg cheese cinn raisin bagel. 10 out of 10. Plenty of egg and meat. And not as expensive as some of the other bagels spots. So worth it. Give it a try read more

Bagel shops are all over but Gems Broadway Bagels in South Amboy NJ serve a quality product at a reasonable cost fast efficient and friendly counter people get your order and get you out fast their coffee is excellent as well read more

I love this place.... The bagels are delicious and so are the sandwiches. My only negative comment about this place is that the eggs for breakfast sandwiches is done in the microwave. Besides that 2 thing everything here is pretty tasty. read more

Sandwiches are fantastic, and full! Quality meat, always consistent. Bread is always fresh, staff is very friendly. Things will even get better once they get their grill in! read more

I didn't even want to give it one star. Worst bagels in the area. Too chewy, no crispy outside like bagels should be, microwaved sandwiches with scrambled eggs instead of fried eggs. When I opened my sandwich I had to eat the falling out eggs with a fork first and couldn't even finish it. Go to manhattan bagel, bagel 1, or any other bagel place in the area there are plenty of options. Honestly insulted that a Jersey bagel place would do this. Hard roll and butter from Krauzers around the corner is more worth it. read more

I went to get a bacon egg and cheese. To find out they microwaved my eggs, bacon and cheese. If I wanted microwaved food I would of went to McDonald's. And the bagels are super small. read more

Best breakfast sandwich ngl, really loved how they turned out.

Broadway Bagels stands alone as the premier bagel location in the Middlesex County area. Their pork roll, egg, and cheese is the best I have had in New Jersey. Ignore the comments about the "they microwave my food" because people will over exaggerate the truth. Although they microwave their eggs and pork roll, it tastes better than other locations that cook theirs. I cannot recommend a better breakfast spot than this place. read more

The cookies are amazing ! If you need breakfast within 12 min before boarding the train a few doors down , this is a better choice than the frozen / turbo toasted breakfast sandwiches at Dunkin . I'd honestly say the only draw back was the way the counter girl / cashier just looked at me as I walked in & kept eye contact till I got to the register . Is it me ? Or am I just a stickler for " hello , how are you ? " " how May I help you ? Can I take your order ? Would you like to know today's specials ? " . So once again , just good for a grab & go ( microwave ) breakfast . read more

I feel bad giving a bagel place one star, but I've never experienced something like this before. Whether you call it Taylor Ham or Pork Roll, I'm sure we can all agree that the egg and cheese part of a breakfast sandwich should be made on a grill and not made in a microwave. While waiting in line for my sandwich, I saw the worker go into the freezer, come out with plate, stick it into the microwave and then place in on my sandwich. If you're not going to make a breakfast sandwich the right way then please don't make it at all. read more

This place is the most overrated place in South Amboy. People who come here obviously have no respect for actual breakfast sandwiches. Once you see a place microwave their sandwiches you should walk out. There are so many other good breakfast places in the area to go to. read more

Wish I would have read the reviews before coming here. But like most of the other reviewers, I was in a rush and ran in while in the area to grab a breakfast sandwich. After I ordered a bacon egg and cheese on a bagel I realized I didn't see a grill in site but thought it was too late to cancel my order. Person went to the back, brought out the egg bacon and cheese on a plate and put it in the microwave (oh no). When I got into my car and opened the sandwich it was cold! The cheese was not melted and the bacon was pretty much raw. Will say the bagels looked fresh so stick with just a bagel if you're coming here. read more

They microwaved my breakfast sandwich... I would expect this in communist Russia as a gulag torcher method but not here in New Jersey. I'm also 90% sure I was charged for putting ketchup on my bagel, which is almost the equivalent of being charged to breath. I won't even drive by this place anymore. read more

Been here a few times and the bagels have always been good. I took off some stars because they microwave porkroll????? Very strange. I also saw on some other reviews that they microwave eggs too? I would never order a breakfast sandwich again knowing that now. A flat top grill is needed here, which would result in more business. Never mind I'm noticing from the reviews this has been complained about for years... its 2017, still no griddle. read more

WHAT IS THIS PLACE! Only bagel shop open on New Years Day. They should of just been closed. I called and placed and order as last resort. **My order (2) Pork Roll and Cheese on a toasted cinnamon raisin bagel**.... Getting this order rapidly and on my way back to work. I open my bag and only one.."sandwich"... My co-worker opens up his "sandwich" since I didn't get one... and received anything but a cinnamon raisin bagel with Pork roll and cheese. The guy got some gray looking meat. like sausage and pork roll had a baby and it died and was reincarnated back to " Breakfast by product. 2.) it was not on a bagel it was on a roll. 3.) The cheese was not even melted! it wasnt even Nuclear melted by a microwave for crying out loud. VERY BAD EXPERIENCE. id rather eat my work shoe fried with salt and pepper. I atleast know i got what i asked for while eating it. read more

Small town bagel shop, nothing more, nothing less. THE GOOD: One of the only places to get breakfast in the area. The bagels are pretty good. When you order a dozen bagels you get 15 not 12. Their chocolate chip cookies are to die for. THE BAD: Some of the girls who work there are not so friendly and often seem annoyed to do their job. There salads are ridden with mayo and nothing else. Tuna salad is just tuna and a lot of mayo. THE UGLY: It is true. They microwave their breakfast sandwiches. They have pre cooked eggs which they microwave to cook initially in a huge bowl (gross) and when you order it, they again microwave it and your microwaved bacon on a glass plate for 45 seconds and then slop it on a bagel. OK if you were at home, not OK to charge a customer for. read more

So yummy im always getting a bagel they put lots of cream cheese but you can just spread it the bagels are homemade and delicious. Im always getting desserts, too. The chocolate chip cookies are great, but my all time favorite dessert has to be the brownies. read more

Fresh warm bagels are great as are sandwiches but really wish they offered pumpernickel everything bagels WHY don't they make them? ; ( Also, they should really get a grill pan or something we NEVER go here for egg sammies because they microwave the eggs and meat SO GROSS want to keep them in business right in town so wouldn't mind giving them the money that we give to Wally's for real egg sammies. read more

Bagels aren't bad but the customer service is terrible. The prices aren't consistent and they are very slow. Try any other place!
