The staff is super friendly and the bagels are always delicious! I've started picking up a bagel for my kiddos to munch on when I grocery shop and they love them. Our last visit we were in for a late lunch, after the typical lunch rush, and the staff took the time to visit with me and my kids and were really sweet. It was a pleasant lunch in a casual environment. read more

Decent bagels, decent pricing. All the ambiance of a Dunkin Donuts. Free coffee refills, though! And the maple cream cheese was killer.

Unfriendly staff with sour looks on their faces. The bagel I had was passable, but the cream cheese tasted bad. Definitely stick to Burlington Bagel on Shelburne Rd. read more

We are so excited to have just discovered this bagel shop! Friendly staff who are efficient, amazing value and great YUMMY bagels. Could not believe we got a dozen day olds for $4.99. I feel other bagel shops in Chittenden County are over priced with awful service and mediocre sandwiches. Can't wait to keep going back! read more

I stayed in Essex Junction for 3 days and chanced upon the store. Friendly staff. Easy crowd. Tasty bagels and tastier cream cheese. Definitely try the jalapeño - its one of the best I've tasted. read more

This was my first visit. They offer a large selection of bagel flavors. I got an everything with lite plain cream cheese. The bagel was fine. It tasted fresh. I was hoping for a latte, but they only have the premixed machine so I skipped it. read more

Have to agree with the others that don't love the bagels. Was a bit disappointed since I stopped there thinking it was a speciality place for bagels. The bagel was just too much soft dough, the creamcheese (light) was overloaded. read more

Bagels Plus is near my office, it is the best and FASTEST way to get breakfast in town. The Bagels are always fresh and the staff friendly and helpful. read more

I was not impressed with the bagels at all, not chewy outside, and not soft inside.

Bagels are always fresh and tasty here. Super selection of sandwich options, creme cheeses and beverages. I tried the chicken pesto salad sandwich and loved it. I bought my friend a turkey sandwich here and they really pile on the turkey +++! I nice little stop for informal food to find in Williston. I would like to try their breakfast sandwiches some time. Very friendly and super fast service here, every time. Glad they are doing well. read more

Sunflower bagel, toasted, with low-fat veggie cream cheese! Get it. Love it. Friendly folks here too.

No matter what I do, I just can't love this place. The bagels are sorta dense, the service and interior "blah", the sandwich selections on the menu uninspiring. Not to mention there's a rather huge upcharge if you want an extra topping - just build it into the price, it's not like someone is going to order a sandwich with 30 toppings! I greatly prefer The Bagel Place - it still holds the #1 spot in my heart! read more

I have been to multiple shops in the area. There's nothing that sets it apart both in coffee and in menu. From many experiences of waiting in line I can see there is no real structure for the staff and the ordering system is outdated. What led me here is hearing arguments in the back between staff and management? Whatever it is, it's bad for customers and I definitely don't want that when I come in for breakfast. read more

This is the only bagel place that either barely warms your bagel or burns it. The first three times it happens I brushed it off. This time I gave the first one back and they made me another one that came out black..... read more

The four cheese bacon bagel is the best I've ever had! You do need to ask them to toast the bagel a little extra. Great service too!

This was my first time going here and probably my last the person behind the counter I am pretty sure was high and completely messed up my simple bagel of egg whites and cheddar and I was just over it so I ate the regular egg and the bagel really wasn't good either all in all a blah experience read more

Another great breakfast here. Amazing bagels, friendly staff and atmosphere. You can only win with a stop at this bagel place!

Went into Bagels Plus today and was sooooo unimpressed. My friend and I walked in, asked for our bagels and we were really rushed while trying to order even though there was no line. My friend ordered her bagel and was not asked if she would like it toasted. When they handed it to her, she said, 'Did you toast it?" The 2 girls behind the counter looked obviously upset and said, "we're going to have to make you another one now." Then the one girl said to her co workers "does anyone want it?" When no one said anything she dumped it in the trash obviously pissed off. She was very rude about making the second bagel. You would think that it wouldn't kill her to OFFER toasting a customer's bagel since many people like their bagels toasted. We paid for our bagels and sat down at a table. My friend ordered a coffee, and when she went up to fill her cup, the coffee pot was EMPTY. My friend asked if there was any more coffee and the lady working there said, "Oh, do you want some?" OKAY DUH! SHE ORDERED COFFEE... obviously she wants some... After that it took forever for them to make a new pot, and when my friend got up to check on the coffee, they were very upset that she was asking for more. One of the workers clapped her hands loudly and said "ON THAT NOTE I"M OUT." All in all, the bagels were bagels. They were fine. But the service was HORRENDOUS. It was honestly disgusting how horrible the service was. While we were eating, the workers were talking and interacting with each other SO LOUDLY it was as if we weren't even there. It was a terrible experience thanks to the staff. read more

Bagels Plus Rock's Hands down, the best Bagel around!!! Every Morning before 6am the bagels are cooked fresh to serve, right there in shop!!! this is the best time to grab 'em, I know this because I've tried bagels from Cape Cod bagel to Bagel Central in Bangor Maine. In fact I'll grab some bales Plus first thing this morning. read more

In town for a hockey tournament, my son and I needed a quick breakfast on the Sunday when we moved the clocks ahead for Daylight Savings Time. His game was 8am, and we were looking for breakfast at about 6:40am. I read a review that said Bagels Plus opened at 6. I was disappointed then when I pulled into the parking lot to see a "CLOSED" sign lit in the window. Fortunately, the newspapers were being delivered, and I saw one of the employees come out to get them. I asked when they opened, and he said "7am, but come on in." At that point, they only had about half their bagel selection, but we were happy with our choices. The young woman who took our order couldn't be more helpful or engaging at that time of day. The bagels were very good, and the Green Mountain Coffee was even better. We had everything bagels, and I had bacon and scallion cream cheese. These weren't bacon bits, mind you, but generous pieces of real bacon. Fabulous! Between the bagels, cream cheese, coffee and especially the early-morning welcome before official opening, I give Bagles Plus five stars! Next time I'm in the area looking for breakfast, I'm going back. read more

This place is always a safe bet for great bagels, cream cheese, and a clean place to eat. The soups and sandwiches are great too. The staff here is friendly and efficient. read more

I go here once every couple months to surprise my wife with bagels for breakfast. So, this isn't based on just a single visit. Overall, it's an okay bagel place. Like others have said, it has a wide selection of bagels. The other baked goods, such as the muffins, are good too. The location can't be beat either. The one thing I always notice about this place is that hardly anyone smiles. The girls who are regularly behind the bagel counter are rather stoic and mechanical. Their attitude reminds me of a bagel place in New York City rather than suburban Williston. Then the older woman who is often working the cash register never smiles at all. I once saw on my receipt that it said "Smiley" in the space where the server's name would go. I inquired about it and the woman explained that it was a joke that the other employees called her that. I fully understand the irony there. Speaking of New York City though, the only person who does smile in this place looks like she might have come from NYC what with her bandanas tied around her head. She's the most pleasant one there and I look forward to dealing with her due to her attitude and the general sense that I get that she enjoys dealing with people. Moving on though, I don't know what the other reviewer was talking about when they said they spent $20 on two bagels, a soda, and chips. My usual order is 2 bagels, 2 muffins, and 2 hot beverages and that comes in less than $15. I can echo the distaste for the layout though. On busy mornings it can be challenging to order, pay, and then fight your way back to the bagel counter to pick your order up. And in this triangle of counters are tables for people to sit at. They're the least desirable tables to sit at though because there are constantly people walking around the tables while they are getting their orders or otherwise milling about the counter. read more

Just go. Great ceasar wrap and maple wheat bagels...just go.

The bagel was perfect on the outside but a little more cakey then chewy on the inside. The chicken cesar wrap was okay, but the chicken is microwaved for service and dried it out. Service was very friendly. Next time I'm in town I'd try another of the many bagel places around. read more

I work close to them and we order there often. It's always a great place to eat. The bagels are fresh and I love the variety of bagels and cream cheese. We get the Mexican wrap and the Salmon wrap quite often. Both are very customizable and they make them so quickly. In the many months that we've been ordering there, we've only had one bad batch. The sandwiches weren't made like we ordered them, but the staff was so receptive to fixing the mistake. We still love them! I highly recommend them for breakfast and lunch. read more

I stopped in to get a bagel sandwich as a treat for my husband and I to share for lunch. This was no treat! The Cajun chicken sandwich, one of their special sandwiches, consisted of a frozen, breaded chicken patty, microwaved, and then put on a bagel with some really odd sauce. I wouldn't even let my dog finish what I was throwing out. Will not be back. read more

I would love to give a small, local business a positive review, but in this case, I cannot. The problem with this bagel shop is a rather simple one to fix, but every time I stop in, it's the same issue--they actually MINCE (into tiny, scant specks) the few raisins they use, and their cinnamon usage is so sparse, that I can't even taste a hint of it in their "cinnamon-raisin" bagels. No one in my family likes their bagels, with the not-surprising complaint that the bagels are tasteless--which wouldn't happen if they actually USED the ingredients in the name of their bagels. I'm sorry to be so blunt, but it's sad that I have to drive to South Burlington to find a decent bagel shop, especially as "Bagels Plus" is expensive, and has very limited hours (I believe they close by 3pm, which is earlier than other local shops). I guess if you're looking for a plain bagel, it's tolerable, but otherwise, I can see why the place always appears deserted. read more
