Super friendly, reliable neighborhood bagel deli. The kind of place they remember your order after you come in a few times. Well named because the bagels are made here and, yes, you can get them hot from the oven. If you don't want a bagel, you can get a deli sandwich made any way you like it. Fast service, with a smile. Small grocery selection too, if you need cereal or a few items to make a picnic (Prospect Park is close). The patrons reflect the diversity of the neighborhood-- and make for great people-watching. Enjoy your food at the counter and soak up some real Brooklyn culture. read more

Never actually had the bagels but their breakfast sandwiches are great. I've had the egg and cheese on croissant as well as on a roll. Can be very crowded in the morning and no actual organized line, so I try to avoid the crowd. I get it every time I'm in town read more

Nice staff, friendly owner, great sandwiches and it seems to run very efficiently. Also they are open 24/7. Love this place! We just had a big party at our business and we needed a bunch of sandwiches made and everyone at Hot Bagels was so helpful and everything turned out great! read more

Hot Bagels is not bad at all. Been here a few times for a solid bagel and some coffee for breakfast. Certainly one of the more reliable bagel cafes in this neighborhood. The pricing is very reasonable, when you compare it to Manhattan. It's astonishing how much a bagel with lox and cream cheese can cost in the city, but here, it will run less than $10. Their bagels are fresh and large, airy inside when toasted. They have a variety of flavors, from whole wheat, pumpernickel, egg, poppy, etc. The cream cheese variety is not terrible either. So far, I just go for the scallion and/or dill. The jalapeño cheddar cream cheese is really great, with a tad of spice and hints of strong cheddar. Overall, a solid cafe for bagels and some coffee. They have other options on the menu, like sandwiches and salads. If you are passing through the neighborhood, could be worth a try. read more

I have to adjust my rating because they have such a great selection of Boar's head cold cuts and cheeses. The bagels themselves have grown on me as well, and the daytime staff is pretty friendly and efficient. Pretty solid Bagel spot... I still hold off a star for charging tax on using cards. read more

I miss going to work and stopping by Hot Bagels, I love their BLT, BEC, and their BES. I hope they eventually make deliveries my way.

Yes sir this is a good bagel. They were out of pumpernickel when I got there on a beautiful Saturday morning; so, I got the rainbow, which is really just plain with food coloring in the dough wrapped up into a delightful package. Had the scallion cream cheese, which was also delicious! The toasted option is the way to go. The guys who work here are super nice and the bagels are solid, at $2 for nice cream cheese and bagel, it's spot on. Will be back! read more

Place is great. Delicious quick and cheap. Shouldn't be 3.5 stars. Check it out if you're out here!

Super friendly service, delicious bagels and a really great selection of cream cheese! I will definitely be back.

Words cannot describe how awesome this place is for the best cheap cold cut sandwiches and fresh bagels. The neighborhood has been starting to get swanky places around but this place hasn't changed their prices and remains my go to spot when I'm fiending for a turkey club on a bagel at 2 am in the morning when I can't find anything else (they are open 24/7). I've been in here at 5 am in the morning and seen construction workers in there getting there sandwiches made for there day shifts maintaining my theory that if it's good and it's cheap - the working man, firemen, police officers, and mailmen know a good spot when they find it. Bagels are always fresh and the staff is very friendly and they've recently updated the place which makes it my go to neighborhood spot. read more

Its a bagel place... thats pretty much it. I know they're not the home of the original rainbow bagel but I guess it will do. They have a decent selection of cream cheese and, but I'm not much of a fan. Bagels are made fresh on premises so thats always a plus. Its my go to spot when I have to satisfy my bagel addiction. read more

Hot Bagels - Rainbow Bagel - Bagels Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

After a post snow storm morning of teaching with little more than 2 Lincoln's to my name, I was envisioning a meaty, spicy, cheesy, and tangy Turkey Sandwich on a bagel. Walking down Church Ave. towards the G train the "Hot Bagels Deli" caught my eye. Being from Bushwick I jumped on the Yelp app to check if it was worth the schlep. Oh boy was it EVER!! I walked in, ordered right away and had a $4 Pepper Turkey, with pepper jack cheese, lettuce, tomato, spicy mustard, salt, pepper, and vinegar, sandwich on a fresh baked everything bagel in my hand in under 2 minutes! I grabbed a drink, and a croissant from the front case. I would have given 5 stars but the croissant was a day old and a dollar more than I should have spent. I'd ask if the croissants are fresh, or just know they get delivered on a Thursday and not Friday to save yourself from future disappointment. Get a deli sandwich on a fresh bagel for under $5 you will be pleased with your choice, I know I was!! read more

Hot Bagels - Pastry case.. All the usual suspects. - Bagels Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

The people are nice here, and it's a local spot, which is cool. Their bagels are warm and good. I can't wait to have more!!! read more

Don't be fooled by the renovation. This place is still a dump. The inside prep area is dirty and the owner is rude.

I was a long time customer of Bagels & Deli two blocks east on Church but Hot Bagels won me over with their superior selection of non-bagel related stuff. The bagels here taste fine, and they make a pretty mean sandwich here too. I like the Turkey and Muenster on a roll with spicy mustard. They are also the only place in Kensington (that I know of) that sells the following items essential to my existence: 1. Single cans of Fresca 2. Tastykake products (Philly native) read more

The absolute best bagel spot in Brooklyn, New York! Super-fast and friendly service, great tasting affordable food (my favorite is an everything bagel with vegetable cream cheese...yum), great coffee (hot or cold). Preferred spot for all the staff in the school and they give back to the community! All the breads are baked fresh everyday right in the shop. If you are nostalgic for a great tasting bagel this is a must. Thank you guys! read more

Lots of pro's to this place: I can get whatever I like 24 hrs: Sandwiches, eggs, bagels, snacks, sodas, cookies, chips, tuna salad, cold cuts, coffee, hot cocoa. They sell a sparse amount of groceries (milk & bread - great!). They are right around the corner. And they really DO have HOT bagels! A few con's that I won't really hold against them: The ice cream selection could be better. A few of the guys that work there don't listen when you ask for something. You are likely to walk out with too much milk in your coffee when you asked for a little, or a bran muffin when you asked for a raisin bran muffin. Like anywhere you go, just make sure you watch what they are doing when they give you your stuff. I wish they also made hamburgers. That would be a dream come true. read more

Possibly one of the most consistent places I've ever been. Their bagels are always top quality and service is quick! I usually get an everything bagel with veggie cream cheese. The bagel is always fresh and some times still warm! Their spreads are also really good. I've tried a few and they're all equal in how yummy they are. I haven't tried any sandwiches yet, but they look really good, too! The owner is a great guy and also very friendly. If you're in the area, stop by! read more

I used to live in this neighborhood. Now whenever I find myself remotely near by, I go for bAgels. They are the best in the all five boroughs. read more

Good service, fresh hot bagels, good cream cheese. Solid neighborhood bagel place. Will definitely go back. read more

Hot Bagels - Pumpernickel bagel with scallion cream cheese and eggs with spinach. Very good! - Bagels Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I was happy to see that they have vegan cream cheese here! I will definitely be coming back.

This is a decent bagel place with most of the standard offerings. Quality is good enough but nearly every time I stop by they are out of most varieties of bagels. They make good egg sandwiches and have a modest selection of cream cheese, beverages and baked goods. There's a few shelves of dry goods like cereal and granola bars bit it's clearly an afterthought. An ATM is available because they are cash only. Hot Bagel is a good enough option for locals or passerbyers who just want the basics and aren't expecting something great. read more

I love this place for friendly service and delicious sandwiches and bagels made to order 24 hours a day. Always fresh food and clean. Their iced coffees are great, too! Not fancy, but always great quality. read more

People skip people . There is no sense of lines or order in this place. Would not recommend unless it's not a busy time.

One of the few breakfast places open very early on the weekends. Located on the same block as the church ave train station. Walked in and there was no line. Ordered an everything bagel and small tea with milk for $3.25. The bagel was not as fresh as I would have liked. It was a bit stale and maybe leftover from yesterday. Opt for a toasted bagel if anything. read more

Wasn't sure what to expect because of the mixed reviews but I was extremely satisfied with my bagel (toasted plain with scallion cream cheese). Great option for an on the go breakfast. read more

Friendly, affordable and delicious. Bagels are fresh and even the coffee is on point. Plus they have Halls NYC seltzer.

Hi there I love there bagels Your probably asking why 3 stars The workers are extremely nasty to you you want a little tuna they will give you a lot want a lot will give you a little that's the only problem read more

Kind of cheap on the bacon, but prices are still great, so is food and service. A lot of variety and options of things to order. I like that they can always make you a breakfast sandwich. Three eggs over easy, bacon, and cheddar on a hero, salt and pepper is a slam dunk. I think its $4.50 read more

Best store on the avenue. Family owned and operated, never disappointed. I rely on them, I trust them. Perfect coffee every morning, perfect breakfast, affordable prices. Very happy with the new style. read more

Hot Bagels - Bagels Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

If I could give zero stars I would. The customer service is extremely surprising. Two young adults or teenagers, I couldn't tell, were extremely rude to me while I ordered. My order was $3.75 and I checked my bank account and it turns out they charged me an extra dollar. If it is $4.75, please tell me that, don't surprise me with a new number. On top of that, as I was leaving they kicked in the trash next to me and it went all over me. They laughed without apology. I am confused why they would do that? I regret going here. It makes me sad because Kensington has so few places that are enjoyable. read more

This is my go-to spot in the morning. They're in the middle of a remodel right now, and soon the place will be better than ever. They are fast, friendly, and the food is always fresh and made correctly. The bagels are made on the premises, and sometimes you can catch them when they're hot and right out of the oven. The owner told me the other day that they are expanding the menu, and I can't wait to see what they have in store for us - I definitely recommend this place over other delis in the neighborhood! read more

it's the closest place to home that i can get food. for that alone i must love them. like 3am after going out? want a sandwich? damn right the bagels are good. the coffee is pretty good. the new soups are pretty good too. i like their sandwiches and that they heat em up for me when i ask. theyre clean and polite. they are, in a way, family. theyre 24hrs, ive probably been there at any one of those 24. oh yeah, the blueberry muffins are pretty good. and the chicken cutlet sandwiches kinda rule read more

Racist establishment!! I'm very upset that I was ignored at least twice to serve other people. I called to express my concern but was dismissed and talked over instead of apologized to. I started working a new job and visited this place three times. Two out of the three times I was ignored. I'm a well dressed, well spoken, educated woman and feel the owner could have apologized when I called and told me it was a misunderstanding. His reaction let me know I want misinterpreting our overreacting. If you are not European, beware as you may be ignored. read more

Bagels are good! Place is clean! Good variety of bagels and cream cheese flavors. Tuna was very,very good! Prompt service. Will definitely be back! read more

Great experience from the time I entered the store , I was greeted with warm friendly hospitality from the owner. This hidden gem has been here for quite a while, I wish I had found them sooner, the best part is that their 24/7 ...amazing right ? I was able to sample quiet a few of the homemade flavors of cream cheese, I was blown away by each one my fav is between the sundries tomato and strawberry, banana ..give them a try u won't regret it ! read more
