Ordered from them on Grubhub at 6am. They called that they didn't have the Strawberry Cream Cheese Spread or Lox Spread for the items ordered. I accepted some subtitutions. Instead of my order I received a Large Coffee and Bagel with Egg and Cheese. I called them back, and they claimed they didn't do delivery orders. How, if they just called me to negotiate a replacement. The Driver didn't make a mistake either, because the receipt had the correct order number and items listed. The Bagel I got from the wrong item was stale too. What the hell its 6am, that should be fresh and hot out the oven. read more

Pretty good bagel shop after a quick bite to eat. As soon as you walk in you're greeted with a massive oven and big pot where the bagels are kettle cooked. This is oldschool and how many of the bagels shops used to operate. This is why the bagels here are pretty good. Slight crisp on the exterior and slight chew on the inside. Can't go wrong. Service is top notch. The coffee is good too! Give them a try. read more

Average bagels. The prices are not bad but how do you not serve more than just bagels? Some spreads would have been nice, but beggars cannot be choosers. The bagels are indeed huge. That helps out a ton. It is in a residential area which is nice because it was fairly quiet when I got there in the morning. I am happy I tried it out, and will keep it as a favorite, but it is somewhere I will not be up early to run to again. Solid, but needs more. read more

Says they are open at 5:30 but it's 5:45 and I'm waiting outside like an idiot. Bagels are good tho. read more

Hands down the best bagels in Brooklyn, I've tried alot of different bagel stores none and really come close to Gerritsen Beach bagels

Good bagels, soft & fresh. Good iced coffee, it's our local neighborhood bagel spot. Quick service.

Gerritsen Bagels are some of the best bagels in Brooklyn. I really like how the seeds are on both sides of each bagel. Adds a nice extra touch to the taste of every bite. Their bagles are a nice size, and they add a good amount of cream cheese to each. The bagels are even better toasted. My favorite is the everything bagel. read more

If the giant vat and ovens in the back can't convince you their bagels are freshly made, then perhaps a taste of their deliciously chewy and warm concoctions might. There are always a variety of bagels readily available and their veggie cream cheese spread, peppered with red onions, scallions and carrots, always manages to taste bright and freshly made. I've yet to find a trace of wilted scallions in my schmear! For fresh bagels with a satisfying, crunchy, chewy crust be sure to check out Gerritsen Beach bagels. Cheaper bagels with none of the quality compromised, plus less attitude than Bagel Hole in Park Slope, guaranteed. read more

Excellent tasting bagels All the varieties were excellent Great reviews from my kids read more

Really solid bagels. Stopped by for a few before hitting the road on a drive home from Coney Island. My one gripe may sound silly, but they 100% were not cleaning the knife they were using. Some bites of my bagel and cream cheese had bits of stale egg and other unpleasant substances. The bites I had that weren't contaminated were really good. I chalk this up to them being busy. The line was out to the door. But had they wiped the knife down before leaving a trail of prior sandwich's to infect my otherwise perfect bagel, I would be giving a 5. read more

This is a good bagel spot. My friend, who lives in the area has ordered us food from this spot on a bunch of occasions. Haven eaten their food on numerous occasions I felt I needed to write a review. I've had their everything bagels and they are really excellent. If I lived closer I'd give some of their different bagel varieties a go. I've also had their bacon egg and cheese sandwich on a roll and on an everything bagel. Both times it was great. Tried their cold cuts, too, and made some solid sandwiches using their everything bagel with them. This is my boys spot and his cousins spot and they know their stuff. read more

When you think original NY bagels, this is it. Just perfect and I don't know how else to explain - f Good bite, just perfect chewiness and they have pumpernickel everything!! Love them. read more

You have eaten a fresh baked bagel until you try this place out. They are the only place that palm rolls their bagels and that makes a big difference for me. Once you slide that butter on top... lord have mercy, praise the lord. You have been blessed. This placed also deliver excellent customer service with style. How? Visit this place and request for a bacon, egg, and cheese. You will notice that the cook make sure your meal is perfect. I actually walked out the place to confirm I was at the right store, because I thought I was on live set for Cooking Network. You want to confirm this place is excellent? -I am willing to travel 20 mins to eat their bagels and you now that mean a lot when gas prices are too high in NYC. -People have traveled from Ct and SI to purchase their bagels. Please realize the tools are over 10 dollars, so when a person is willing to pay tool for bread. You need to need to visit this place to find out why! read more

You know when you go to a neighborhood and have food and consider moving there based on that alone? Yeah, this is one of those places. I got a rainbow bagel with ham, egg and cheese like a true goy. I had no idea they had rainbow bagels (or ham) so this was a real treat. The novelty of the bagel didn't take away from the quality. The bagel was the best I have had ever. Deliciously crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside. They put the cheese in between the eggs. I always appreciate a high regard for perfect sandwich bite ratios. Good job! We also had an everything bagel with lox spread, tomatoes and onions. I always prefer actual lox and cream cheese to lox spread but whatever. Who cares on a bagel this perfect? For a coffee, a bagel and lox spread and an egg sandwich it was like 5 bucks. Duh. Get your butts over to Gerritsen Bagels. read more

Gerritsen Beach Bagels - Ham egg and cheese on a rainbow bagel. Basically me, if I were a food. - Bagels Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I wanted to try a rainbow bagel for ages now. However, everywhere else ran out fast, loaded with tourists, and had super long lines. They were way out of reach of course. Well farther out than I feel is necessary to trek for a bagel to be honest. Luckily, this place is not far, its easy to park, not expensive, and zero tourists. Seriously, I am grateful that gentrifiers and tourists do not swarm to these parts of Brooklyn. They Betta NOT! Anyway they had a ton of rainbow bagels and different color cream cheese that taste freakin good. read more

Excellent bagel place, the best. There is usally a line especially on weekends, but it is worth the wait. The bagels are crisp on the outside and soft and moist on the inside. And they are not expensive at all. Most come schmeared with ample portions of cream cheese, but I prefer mine toasted with butter. I like that you can watch the bagels being made, first boiled in a vat and then cooked in the large revolving oven in an open kitchen. Be forewarned many of the regulars say they love the taste, but not the service which can be absent-minded at times. Good idea to check your order before you leave. read more

Picked up a dozen on the way home at 1pm today. Planing to make lunch and could not cut the dame things. Hard as a rock must be yesterdays. How disrespectful are you to your customers. read more

I love me a good bagel and this place has literally the best bagels in the world as far as I am concerned. Don't come here if you want some fancy shmancy stuff. Bacon egg cheese is all you need. Bring some bagels home, cream cheese. Nothing crazy and you won't be disappointed. The bagel is big, you may elect to scoop but straight up best bagel and that's crazy to say in NY with so many great spots. It's a hidden gem. read more

They are back open! The place looks new/renovated, so I assume this is the place...and if it is, they haven't lost a beat. I've lived around here for a while and never stopped in. Now I can't stop going. Everything bagels have salt, which fans love. Croissants are so buttery, they will drench the bag in moments, and if you put them in the toaster oven, the scent of melty butter will fill the room. Then you will put more butter on there. Bagel with cream cheese is $1.50. Where else can I find this? Not many places, and considering the amount and quality of the cream cheese, well that narrows your options even further. Danishes and Croissants are $2. Good price but can get pricey if you are buying breakfast for your study group (4 of each ran me 16 bucks -- but hey breakfast for 4-5 people, not a bad deal if you really think about it). Also since now, the group wants to meet more, you know to get more work done on this project, and now more people want in on the group, and you get a request for croissants that sounds like a veiled threat. A small price overall to pay for happiness (theirs) and physical well-being (mine). Service is fast and friendly. These kids work hard. Toss a crowd of customers at them any time, they'll take 'em on with friendliness and accuracy. The location is about as off the beaten trail as you can get, so if you're not feeling like a trek there, get a study group together and invite some of the locals for a 10am project meeting. Every day. Tell 'em you'll bring the drinks... read more

Great bagels. They're big, crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside. Limited selection of spreads and fishes. The ingredients are geared towards deli items like meats and cheese making it a better spot for a bacon, egg, and cheese. Reasonable prices and lightning fast service. read more

This place is pretty good. First off, there isn't much in Gerritsen Beach to begin with. This bagel spot is the only one. But that doesn't mean they went half-ass in their product or service. There food is top-notch. Bagels are made right in the store. They taste fresh, warm and delicious. They have a hot grill just in case you like to order a Bacon, Egg and Cheese. This place is delicious but it's not a place I would go to just to eat their bagels. I only go when I'm in the neighborhood. However, they don't disappoint me with the quality of their food. read more

Good place for a bagel or a sandwich, i go here when i'm in the Sheepshead Bay area at the movies. Place was renovated and looks good, prices are reasonable it's not $2 for a cream cheese bagel yet. Get the egg bagel it's good! read more

I will never find another bagel place as good as this. I could cry knowing that my whole family growing up in brooklyn used to come here. the bagels were cheap and I would have my aunt ship us a dozen from time to time. i cannot believe that they are closed now. read more

God damn these are some good bagels. When I entered this shop, I came with the intention of keeping it simple. I ordered an everything bagel with cream cheese. While inside I observed an employee in there working all by himself whipping up breakfast for customers with unusual requests. If it were me, I would've lost patience being the only one serving and dealing with a long line of customers. He kept his cool but had the obvious look of irritation all over his face. But getting back to the bagel, you know it's good when you say mmm after the first bite. After the last bite I said, God damn this is a good bagel. I will definitely return. read more

Gerritsen Beach Bagels - Bagels Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

A friend said they have the best bagels in Brooklyn. I know bagels! So I went, today Sat 12 noonish. The first thing that turned me off was there was no assemblage of order in the store. I could not tell where to begin my order and I could not figure out who had ordered and was waiting. NO fucking sign to say order here, or line start here. Then there are no prices posted for bagels by the dozen. There is a sign that says $ 1.20 for bagels $ 2.00 for rainbow. WTF. Most any other bagel places give you a break on a dozen and often throw in 2 - 4 for free. And these people want $ 1.20 for a single bagel. I had to keep my eyes open to catch a worker because he was by the register instead of being bebind the counter. I got a coffee too. Coffee wasn't so great. Place has like a real dirty look n' feel to it. I won't be back. BTW, the bagel wasn't so great. read more

don't tell your customers plain bagels will be ready at a certain time, then when they return 5 minutes after that time tell them another time. maybe you should learn how to manage your production a lot better. if your bagel weren't as good as they are, your customers wouldn't put up with this. read more

I live in the area and I gotta say these are the best in the neighborhood! The Bagels are made fresh everyday, multiple times a day! They also make pancakes, French toast etc.. You won't be disappointed read more

Gerritsen Beach Bagels - Everything W/ Bacon, Egg And Cheese! - Bagels Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Gerritsen Beach Bagels is the only establishment in the area that makes its own bagels. Whenever I'm working in the area, I'll stop in for a bagel and schmear or an egg sandwich. The hazelnut coffee is a bit watered down, but not awful. Solid breakfast joint. read more

The bagels are okay. The wait is ridiculous. A coffee and bagel with cream cheese shouldn't take nearly twenty minutes. Each employee handles one request at a time. Bagel... okay, go slowly around the case and get that. Bagel with cream cheese is just asking for too many things at once, apparently. The staff is polite, but easily confused. Black coffee means no milk. I understand that English isn't everyone's first language, but seriously... if two of the main things you're serving are coffee and bagels, you should probably understand at least enough to make them correctly. While working this week at Gerritsen, doing Hurricane Sandy recovery work, I made the mistake of stopping in there. I learned my lesson- buy coffee at a 711 or Dunkin Donuts and bring it with me. When Dunkin Donuts employees are quicker and speak more English, you know there's a problem.... read more

I love this place for breakfast. Bagels are made fresh in front of you. The three guys that are usually there definitely know what there doing. Great bacon egg and cheese fit for any man. The four stars is because of there ice coffee. It's weak. I believe in adding cold coffee to ice cubes not hot coffee to ice cubes because the coffee becomes watered down. There hot coffee is great otherwise. But the bagels are unbelievable. Check this place out. read more

Not really a place to go and sit and have a coffee (since it is more of a corner store VS a cafe and there are no seats) but there is not doubting the quality of the bagels. HUGE and a great deal. $1.75 for a massive Bagel toasted with a good dollop of cream cheese. Best in the area. read more

Best bagels in Brooklyn, seriously. Massive chewy, crunchy and boiled. They're fantastic and a real nod to an old school Brooklyn bagel. The service and staff however are awful.

If dude's working the grill, you're gonna stand there while he watches the eggs cook... read more

Love this place. They don't always have roast beef. Warning : be on the look out for thAt one Spanish guy with the hat , he loves to slice the deli meat even when he's not making your sandwich. And he is always cheap as hell with the meat. I go to the Cause they make you a good size sandwich but recently that rat has been screwing up my relationship with the place. The owner hooks it up, why can't that rat do the same. read more
