    Bagel Hole
    Jando S.

    A failed attempt at hitting up Di Fara's (http://www.yelp.com/biz/di-fara-pizza-brooklyn) (#1) resulted in my visit here at Kosher Bagel Hole. Despite being very saddened over missing out on some of NY's finest pizza, the underlying hunger overtook my need for preference and pushed for anything that I could shove into my mouth. After seeing random bunches of Hasidic Jewish gentleman walk in and out of this bagel shop, I was convinced this was going to be a good stop. And for a moment, it was. I ordered a couple of toasted bagels with lox spread and though a bit miniature in size, packed a worthy bite in taste. The spread was creamy, with just enough lox to get some salmon flavor and the bagel itself was devoured in a matter of seconds. I was ready to order another bagel (they have a decent variety here) but decided against it in fear of "bloated bagel syndrome" (#2). The Mexican guys behind the counter were egging my friend and I on about trying more stuff, but we decided against it. The owner seemed like a nice guy and offered us extra napkins after noticing the smears of lox spread on our faces. Instead, we went for some water and juice, which washed down quite nicely. In the end, these bagels are not so mind blowing that I'd go out of my way to return again. I'm not even sure I'd come back after another failed DiFara's attempt. But I do know that if I lived in the area, I'd be like the locals and hit this place up before heading to the train. ---------- (#1): Dom was vacation. I should've called ahead of time. Wait, he never answers the phone. (#2): Occurs after ingesting two or more bagels with some type of cream cheese. Clutching of the stomach and reoccurring bouts of sleepiness are sure to follow.

    Their lox

    While waiting for our 2-hour wait pizza across the street, we went here and ordered smoked salmon in a bagel. We requested to remove the inside to lessen the carb. They use traditionally made bagel. That means hard crust and it seems unleavened. My sandwich was good. The rest of the things they sell is standard deli items. We ate by the window. There are no regular chairs here.

    Half of whitefish salad sandwich on sesame twist.

    I haven't eaten at this place for years but was in the neighborhood and decided to stop by, they used to be known for great tuna fish and white fish salad. Picked up 2 sandwiches and honestly couldn't be more disappointed. I've never heard of anyone putting butter on a roll and tuna or whitefish salad on top. Whitefish salad is fatty as is, but butter??? Come on. Maybe it's under new ownership but when you pay $8 for a sandwich and they barely put any salad. Took a picture of a half so you can see.

    Everything bagel with salmon lox, scallion cream cheese, lettuce, tomato, and onions

    This place is located right by my workplace, so I come here when I'm craving a Salmon Lox Bagel. I've been here twice already, and the first time I got an Everything bagel with salmon lox and plain cream cheese. I got a ton of salmon lox, and the total was around 7.50. The second time I came, I ordered an Everything bagel with salmon lox, scallion cream cheese, lettuce, tomato, and onions, I believe the total for that was 8.59 I prefer the latter more, but nonetheless, I'd definitely come back for my salmon lox bagels!

    Great Selection of Cold Items

    I ordered a cream cheese bagel and it was . They loaded it up tons of cream cheese, definitely not stingy with that.

I asked for their advice on what kind of lox to order and they cut me a healthy slice to try of each. And the lox is to die for. The nova is the classic, but also got some gravlax and the pastrami lox. All had their unique flavors that were distinctly different. Amazing! And yes ~$60/pound is expensive, but it's artisan, hand carved and they even cut out the little bit of blood line so every bit is perfect. It's worth the splurge every once in a while. I will say though the bagels there were just meh unfortunately. Kinda average and on this day below average if you ask me. So ideal...get your bagel somewhere else like Bagel Pub or Utopia and then get your lox here!

It was about a 20 minute wait from enter the shop, grabbing a ticket, waiting for your number to be called, ordering the sandwich, getting the food and paying. Waiting for your number to be called happens faster than you think as people do drop out like flies, so just be patient. If you order yourself a Classic Bagel & Lox Sandwich ($17) like I did, you can watch them filet the salmon fresh from the fish itself to be used just for your sandwich. I did everything bagel and choose Scallion cream cheese, which seems like the popular choice. It's good enough to go out of the way to try once in your life. To be a repeat customer, idk if I want to wait in line for this every weekend. Additionally, there's no seating besides the benches that's outside. I do have to give it to them, among the chaos, the employee that helped me was super friendly. I also saw some of the customers get salmon samples of the salmon for the lox. Idk if they asked or the employee just happened to be offering it.

It's a pretty spacious bagel spot with ample seating menu's with pricing for all items they sell which is helpful. Food: 3/5 I ordered a jalapeño bagel with turkey bacon, and scrambled eggs. The bagel was okay nothing to rave about your standard bagel. Nothing to make me fave about it. The texture was chewy and a bit doughy if you like your bagels that texture this may be the spot for you. Overall my bagel was about 10-12$ I believe. They charge extra for a rainbow bagel and other specialty bagels like jalapeño. Which is pretty expensive so make sure you're aware of that. Service: 3/5 The customer service was mediocre. The guy at the front wasn't the most pleasant. Very much get you in an out top of place. They weren't rude but not the most cheerful I'd say.
