I have never seen H&S Bagels not busy. It has everything I like: fast service, fresh bagels, and a convenient location. It is a lively spot with a constant flow of customers, which speaks to its popularity. I have a standard order here, a toasted sesame bagel with lox spread. The bagels are always fresh and top notch, and the lox spread is also quite good. The bagels are very reasonably priced. H&S Bagels is my favorite option on days when I want a quick breakfast to go. read more

I stopped back into H & S Bagels this morning and was greeted with the two most beautiful words in the English language: "Fresh bagels." The plain bagels were coming hot out of the oven, so I waited. Worth it. Hand-rolled, light, chewy, just the right amount of crunch, and about as close to bagel perfection as you're going to find. This is a bite of heaven here on Earth. I've eaten bagels all over, including New York, and H & S is better than most of the bagel shops there. Right here in Nashville. Wow. Five stars remain firmly intact. read more

Awesome awesome awesome. A New York transplant here telling you these bagels and their breakfast Sammie's are the the real deal.

Ugh I wanted to love this place so badly, but honestly I've had better. They did have unique cream cheese flavors I haven't seen before (lemon zest & honey feta). But wasn't super impressed by the bagels. I went 2 days in a row because I was staying across the street & it was very convenient. Bagels are also typically my hangover breakfast meal of choice. Day 1 I just ordered an onion bagel toasted w/ cream cheese. The bagel was barely toasted & very "bready". Maybe I've just never had a true NY bagel, but I usually prefer mine a little more toasted. Cream cheese amount was fine. Day 2 I got a poppy seed bagel w/ honey feta cream cheese. This time I asked for it double toasted & w/ extra cream cheese (I'm excessive about it but that's on me, not them lol). It was much better & I thoroughly enjoyed the honey feta flavor cream cheese. Not sure what I'm missing because this place seems very popular. Maybe I'm supposed to get one of the sandwiches?? Or it's just not my cup of tea, and that's ok too. read more

The bagels here are really fluffy and chewy (in the best way). The are fresh and really flavorful! The sandwiches all have your basic fillings. I tried the egg and ham and cheese and it was good. I do wish they had more unique combos. They have very different cream cheeses. The parking situation is a little tough, but the food is ready pretty quickly! read more

My daughter ordered via Uber Eats. I had: The Nashville Midtown - lots of flavor coming through with the onion and sun dried tomatoes. The chicken was thin and a bit tough but the everything bagel was very tasty and had that good chew you look for in a bagel. read more

I ordered a blueberry bagel with strawberry cream cheese. The bagel itself was very good and fresh. The strawberry cream cheese, however, tasted more like plain cream cheese and didn't have much strawberry flavor. You order and pay at the counter, and the place was very well laid out and organized, which I appreciated. I do wish I had tried a different bagel, but I'd still be open to coming back read more

H & S Bagels - Blueberry bagel, strawberry cream cheese - Bagels Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

These bagels are huge, smell amazing, look amazing and TASTE just as amazing as they look - no joke. Stopped here to grab a variety of bagels for my work event and appreciated the prompt service and quality that I received. The price is also pretty competitive in my opinion. For bagel lovers, this is the place to go especially if you're a bagel snob!! Quality ingredients and I learned they fly in their water from New York to actually make the bagels. So a top notch place for sure!! read more

I've been told for a while now these are the best bagels in Nashville... and if this is the best I'm not excited for the rest. The bagel was fine... but a Taylor ham, egg and cheese for $9 is a crime. A side-note the girl Alise was incredibly friendly and helpful. She was on the ball! read more

H & S Bagels - Bagels Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

We were staying writhing walking distance of H &S and we gave them a shot for breakfast. I am a fan of bagels and I was excited to try them. The line out the door must mean they are that good. You order at the counter and then pick up by the register. The line was long but it moved fast. Almost everyone was picking up a to go order. I don't think there was anywhere to sit. The shop is decorated with Bruce Springsteen memorabilia and his music was playing on the speakers. I preferred a Cuban on an onion bagel and it was delicious. Very filling and tasty. read more

These pics don't do it justice but I could barely fit them in my hand they were so big. As a self proclaimed bagel expert, I've tried every bagel shop that I know of in the Nashville and surrounding area. Chewy with a little crisp on the edge yet soft. Nothing fancy or trendy (like most of the bagel shops), just proper bagels done right. Yes that was intentional wording. read more

Wherever I go, I'm always in search of a good breakfast bagel sandwich. The one I ate did not disappoint! What made it good? First, the selection. Second, the conversation with Hector who proudly shared how he preps HIS WATER to make these delicious bagels. His water. He takes his water seriously. Third, the bagel itself- it had a great chew to it. Shop is nice and clean. A good short safe walk from my hotel. Staff was friendly and quick. I have more business in the area and will definitely be back again. read more

Stopped in on a Saturday morning after a night on Broadway. We didn't want to wait in line at a restaurant for breakfast. Walked in and there was no line, variety of bagels, and friendly staff! My friend and I both just got a basic sausage egg and cheese on a bagel and it was exactly what we wanted. I don't live in the area but my friend said she'd keep it on her list as a spot for a decent breakfast sandwich and fast service. read more

H&S bagel Owner is Hector S., a native NYC area guy and NY Yankees fan. I stopped in for breakfast and he quickly, efficiently and pleasantly took my order. I immediately noticed his NYC accent was the same as mine. Can't miss the unique NYC accent! We chatted a bit and learned about things we had in common in the NYC area. I ordered a well toasted everything bagel with lox spread. I also ordered an egg, bacon & cheese bagel. Both came out quickly, made perfectly in every way including the bagel taste, amount of seasonings, and nice warm, great tasting lox spread. Just like my NYC home! The young woman (Elise) at the register was both efficient and very pleasant. She handed me the finished bagels by saying, "the time is 9 and the bagels are ready. " Looking at my watch I realized it was indeed just after 9 am. My bagels were done to perfection in about 5 minutes. She also has other cute sayings I've heard her use in my many visits since, including, "your bagel will be up in a jiff" and "your food is ready, the utensils are put away and "have a knife day" The othe bagel I usually order instead of the one with egg is an everything bagel with the spicy cream cheese (jalapeno and habanero mix) it had a nice spicy kick but not overboard. However your tounge and mouth will let you know this cream cheese flavor is legit as they will tingle just a little. The business is steady with customers coming in at a good pace. They are handled efficiently and pleasantly by the staff. The seating area is spacious and comfortable including very comfortable cushioned bench seating. They validate parking in the garage next door for up to an hour but there is ample parking across the streets at a lot which on the weekend can be used and no one is there to collect a parking fee. There is also street parking for the few minutes it takes to get your order and leave, before getting a ticket. On a few occassions, for lunch I had the everything bagel with boars head turkey, lettuce, onion ,tomato, gulden spicy brown mustard - just like in NYC, The owner started off as a worker in NYC area (Jersey City) bagel shop making the bagels and dough before coming to Nashville where he quickly discovered he could do much better than the other bagel places. H&S Bagels beats the many, many places in Nashville they say they have NYC style bagels and spreads. H&S actually has it in his shop and does it 100% NYC style! I HIGHLY Recommend this establishment and wish its owner good health, fortune and longevity in his business serving Nashville people and tourists the "real deal" NYC Bagels. read more

We had a good experience here. We each got a bagel. My boyfriend got the taylor ham egg and cheese on an everything bagel and I got the Nashville midtown on an onion bagel. The place was clean and although there was a line it moved quickly. The staff was very polite and our order came out very fast. I thought the Nashville midtown was great. It had a lot of flavor and it wasn't overly greasy, oily, or buttery which I appreciated. My boyfriend only somewhat enjoy his taylor ham egg and cheese and thought the everything bagel was a little too salty. Overall it was a good place and I would come back. read more

As good a bagel as you'll find in NYC. Big, plump, exquisitely crunchy on the outside and chewy in the middle. Very generous schmear of flavored cream cheese. Friendly staff, quick service. Plenty of seats, and a very active to-go business. One point off for not toasting even tho toasting was ordered. No reflection on the quality of the food. read more

They offer good bagels which are quite large in size. I tried the Nox sandwich and just chives cream cheese sandwich. I must say they have great cream cheese, as they make their own batch. The cafe is super busy and often crowded with students , but it i s very economical. The team at H&S Bagel is very friendly and approachable. They have a very quick service although one might come across a que to order the bagels. It is great breakfast place, i definitely recommend it. read more

Came here because we wanted a bagel and ended up ordering a lox bagel toasted on everything wheat. The people working are very sweet and helpful. I got a yogurt parfait which was yummy too. Although it was busy, the staff did a great job of getting people their order in a timely matter. Came back the next day and ordered the same thing. Highly recommend. Cute bagel shop and great vibes! read more

Exactly what you want from a Bagel Shop. Fast service, good food, hot coffee, and plenty of indoor seating. H&S Bagels delivers everything g you want from a bagel shop. A bagel with cream cheese is only $3.50 and a small coffee is $3.00. They also have a case of cold drinks, including bottled water, but there's no other water available, which is a bit disappointing. The restaurant is clean and the food is good. This is a good place to stop for a bagel. read more

H & S Bagels - Sesame Bagel with Lox Cream Cheese. A great deal for $3.75. - Bagels Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Great bagel but would I call it a great NY bagel? Maybe not. Look, don't get me wrong, I love a salt bagel so I was thrilled that H&S had them on the menu. The price was right and the schmear was generous but the chew was not New York. Again, it was a good bagel but it ain't (H&H?) New York. All that being said, it is the best bagel I've had in Nashville. read more

Good bagel. I like the onion with chive cream cheese. You stand in line to order then when your food ready they call you up to pay and give you the food. They have a handful of tables to eat there's pretty basic interior. But the focus is on the food not the decorations. My only negative is parking. The lot across from it was $7. Wish there was free parking. The bagels are very fluffy. I love the texture. Tastes like NY bagels. read more

Incredible bagels!! Staff was friendly. Will definitely be going back. Parking is a little challenging-- if you drive past it on the right side, you'll see an entrance to an apt complex which offers validated parking for H&S customers. read more

The bagel itself is really good! It's soft and chewy. next time i would get it extra toasted though. GREAT filling to bagel ratio, usually i take off the top of a bagel sandwich because there is too much bread but this one was awesome!! very efficient and have a good system down. nice inside! most people did not sit down and take it to go. kind of expensive and they don't give water cups. it was good but not life changing the lox bagel was yummy, i like less salmon in my lox sandwich so i really liked this one. if you want a lot of salmon on it you may not like it as much. bagel ratings: the classic new yorker (cream cheese and lox): 9.5/10 bacon egg and cheese on everything: 7/10 read more

0/2 with this place. The first time we ordered, we got home and realized we were given the wrong bagels. The second time, we asked for all of them to be toasted and none were. The strawberry cream cheese tastes like plain cream cheese (almost sour), and the bagels were thick and cold. read more

Right around the corner from the Hilton Garden Inn - Vanderbilt, a great place for a bagel and coffee. Bagels are fresh and soft and they are generous with the amount of cream cheese. I went with the everything bagel and spicy cream cheese and it was fabulous. Two coffee choices; self serve so you could grab a refill on the way out. As a bonus, the lady at the cash register was super friendly and full of energy for a Sunday morning! Prices were totally fair; paying only $3 for a bagel is a steal. read more

I got the bacon, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich in a toasted everything nagel. I also got a bottle of OJ from the fridge. Bagel chewy. Flavor good. I forgot to say crispy bacon. And it was definitely lightly toasted. read more

This might be the best bagel spot in Nashville! I walked by this place on my way to grab coffee from down the street and decided to pop in. I am not sure I would have ever found this place otherwise. I got the egg everything bagel with veggie cream cheese and WOW.. the closest thing I've gotten to a NY bagel outside of NY. I will 10000% be coming back and have already told everyone I know go also go here. 20/10 recommend for sure! read more

Have always loved H&S Bagels. But today one of the workers was clearly on meth or something. We watched him attempt to change the trash and leave it and then use the same gloves to put bagels in the oven. He was also getting multiple orders wrong. It was a mess to watch. Let the cashier know about his behavior. read more

I definitely liked this place and it had a good assortment of bagels and coffee is amazingly fresh. I bought a dozen for the crew and they went fast, but would be good to see more variety of cream cheeses - maybe they were low when I was there, too! read more

Solid spot for a fairly cheap and hefty breakfast sandwich. Their bagels are amazing-- super chewy and lots of flavor. Definitely fresh as well-- I watched an employee bake some as I ordered.
