While in the neighborhood visiting a relative at the hospital across the street, I ran over to 7th Ave Bagels for a quick breakfast. I had my suspicions on if this place was going to be good, mainly because it seemed like the influx of customers was due to the hospital's proximity and not because they actually served quality food. After what felt like a long while of contemplating what I wanted to order, one of the staff at the counter assured me, "these are the best bagels in ALL of Brooklyn, you won't go wrong with anything you order." And THAT is how I knew I picked a solid breakfast spot. This place is everything you're looking for in a bagel shop: fast paced, quality food, no skimping on any of the ingredients. My bacon egg and cheese sandwich had the perfect amount of meat/eggs and the bagel was pillowy soft. Others who had bagels with cream cheese were not disappointed by the amount of cream cheese received either. Instead of eating inside the hospital, we found a table tucked away in the back and deemed this as a hidden gem. The table, situated right besides a window, gives you an up close look at staff making the bagels fresh - assuring you that you're getting freshly baked goodness when you order. Worth it if you find yourself in the area? Absolutely. read more

I was working in Brooklyn the other day and was looking for some lunch. BK is not my stomping grounds so as far as food I was not familiar. No worries, though - as I whipped out Yelp and did a quick search. One of the top hits was La Bagel Delight - and since the reviews and pics looked great I decided to head over. As suggested by the name, LBD serves up bagels - lots of them in different varieties with just as many cream cheese flavors to match. Beyond that, they're a deli with an extensive sandwich menu - plus other items one would expect to find (think bags of chips, bottled soft drinks, etc.). There's a lot of stuff in the space but it's set up nicely and they even have a small seating area in the back. I browsed their sandwich menu and the Porketta instantly stood out to me - not sure if the misspelling is intentional but I'm going with it. Anyway - everything on this sandwich was speaking to me - porchetta, broccoli rabe, sun-dried tomato, and fresh mozz. I mean, wow - you didn't need to tell me twice. It came on a hero as standard, but I didn't want that big of a sandwich so they offered a kaiser roll which I appreciated. The sandwich was excellent - it was steaming as I opened the wrapper, and everything tasted super fresh; it was a total yes. Service was also great - as soon as my colleagues and I walked in, we were warmly greeted and taken care of promptly. As if the sandwich wasn't enough, the customer service made this even more of a memorable experience. Overall, I had a great experience at La Bagel Delight - my sandwich was super tasty with quality ingredients and the hospitality was top-drawer. I would definitely consider returning next time I'm working in the area. read more

This place was so good! It was really fast And the bagels were delicious. My only review was that the meat they used was more on the salty side. I got bacon, but my friends got sausage, and also said it was pretty salty. Other than that, my sandwich was so good, and I hope to be back. read more

Brooklyn bagel is real. I stopped by to grub a quick bite before heading to the airport. There are so many options of cream cheese spread and I couldn't decide which one to go with. The staff was very friendly by making recommendations and offering samples. I ended up with the Jalapeno & Cheddar. The bagel had a great texture: chewy interior and slightly crisp crust. Highly recommended! read more

Treated Poorly at La Bagel Delight Despite Being a Paying Customer Today I went to La Bagel Delight (284 7th Ave, Brooklyn) and purchased a can of Celsius and a Coke, totaling $5.74. I paid $6 out of pocket, took my drinks, and left -- not because of any mistake I made, but because I was overwhelmed by the staff's complete lack of compassion, basic understanding, and professionalism. As someone living with a disability, being dismissed, misunderstood, and made to feel like a burden is exhausting. I tried explaining my situation clearly and calmly, but they showed no empathy, no effort to understand, and certainly no apology for how they handled it. Not even an ounce of decency to acknowledge what happened. This place is right across from a hospital, where people -- especially disabled folks like me -- are more likely to stop in. The fact that the staff are so untrained in basic respect and human decency is upsetting and unacceptable. I hope the management seriously considers staff training in disability awareness, because I wouldn't want anyone else to leave feeling the way I did today. read more

Being out of work for a while is difficult and La Bagel really helps people out. Not only do they offer a cash savings (instead of paying with a card), they provided me one of the best Too Good To Go orders with a whopping 14 bagels for $5. Pickup was easy at around 4:30-5p as they were cleaning and shutting down early as I am sure the baker was up way early making these doughy goodies. While I didn't get a cinnamon raison (my fave), the bag included plain, sesame, everything, and garlic. As most people know bagels freeze well, but what is even more awesome make bagel chips. You'll thank me later. read more

The Chicken Faijta sandwich was amazing they did not lack in quantity and quality and the price was worth the $18 for the sandwich. The Employees were very nice and inviting the place has a large variety and I would most definitely go back. read more

Their lox is great! Highly recommend their Lox spectacular. Their bagels are good when fresh and they have a variety of bagels but also cream cheese. The staff is super friendly and always helpful with questions. They are really attentive and want to make sure you are happy with your order. I tend to have some requests for my bagels, like toasted, scooped, certain replacements, etc. and most of time they're all met - once in a while one thing is missing. read more

My friend lives down the street, loves this place, and says it's very special for locals. Manager and cashier were great but prices are steeps. I had avocado on a pumpernickel bagel and it was perfect. The bagels are dense, doughy, chewy, and are the perfect size and thickness. It's two blocks from Prospect Park so it's perfect to grab a bagel and eat at the park. read more

Good bagels, poor and inaccurate service. There's nothing like calling a restaurant to notify them you did not receive what you ordered, and to ask if they could possibly send the correct item, but not even being able to get the sentence out. The woman on the phone kept insisting "you didn't order that." I explained to her that I was looking at my receipt and I ordered and paid for 3 bagels, but one of the bagels was wrong and could they please deliver it? But she did not want to hear it. She continued to argue with me until I hung up. Very disappointed in the lack of service and the inability of the person on the phone to allow me to finish a sentence. read more

Stopped by this bagel place as we were hungry on our way to the Barnes & Nobles nearby and ordered a turkey sausage, egg and cheese bagel. The staff were nice and the bagel was good but I have to take a star off due to the confusing menu pricing structure and lack of prices on the beverages on the fridge. I wish they would include the pricing on the drinks because I got an orange juice and I felt incredibly ripped off. Just feel like this location is way overpriced for what it is offering. 4% discount if you pay in cash by the way read more

To start, the service and ambiance are fantastic. I love the staff there, it feels so homey. But the food is iffy... the bagels and cream cheese has a weird mop watery aftertaste that makes me question what they use to clean their silverware. read more

The bagels are indisputably the best around but I'm taking stars off for the store nickel and diming customers on everything else. Aside from my dozen bagels I ordered turkey sandwiches and discovered after paying that each sandwich was charged .75 extra for lettuce and 1 dollar extra for tomato. That's just obnoxious. I'd rather see it all rolled up as a cost of a turkey sandwich. Seeing that I paid $1.75 for lettuce and tomato has assured that I will never order anything other than bagels from here again. There's also a "4% discount built into the pricing" if you pay in cash, meaning they charge you 4% for using credit card. read more

Phenomenal gluten free (and vegan) bagels! The cream cheese was great, too. Fast service, in and out!

Popular local take out place for thick freshly made breakfast bagels- large assortment of bagels and spreads. Enjoyed a large coffee with a sausage egg cheese bagel - savory and juicy. The bacon egg cheese bagel had crispy bacon with melted cheese and egg. Indoor seating only in rear. read more

$ 10.70 and I tossed it all in the garbage. I'm doing some statistical work for Methodist for about four months now and decided today to give this place a try. The front door was open, fully. There was no a/c at all. I thought to myself, OK, I'll get some food and take it to a quiet place I know. It was 1:20 PM. I ordered a cinnamon raisin bagel w/cream cheese and an egg bagel with butter. Small coffee, very light, 1/2&1/2, no sugar. Paid, took my order to the secret lunch hideaway spot and ... b t w, I don't eat bagels all that often, so grabbing two at one time is pretty usual when I go for 'the bagel', and any left over I would take home ... w t f, the cinnamon raisin bagel was stale. YES, the bagel even with the generous spreading of cream cheese was dry - hard - tasteless. After two bits, I just spit the stale cooked dough out of my mouth. I opened my coffee, which was not a small, but turned out to be a large - giant, not light, yes to the 1/2&1/2 and no sugar requested. But the coffee was too hot, I asked for light. Now I have to eat the egg bagel ... I'm really hungry. The first thing I notice is that there is barely any butter ... like where is the butter. And the bite, and here to fucking stale shit. This was a first and last, never again. First time there, and last time there, never again. read more

I honestly haven't had a good bagel in years so I stopped buying them. 2 weeks ago I stopped on La Bagel Delight. It was kinda confusing but I eventually joined the long line to order. It moved pretty fast btw. I ordered an everything bagel with veggie cream cheese. The bagel was quite tasty and so was the cream cheese but they put too much on it. I had to scrape a lot of it off. Overall this is a solid bagel shop. read more

This experience was not as good as the last time. I asked for a Greek omelette but with no olives or onions due to health issues. As you know, Greek omelettes come with feta cheese MIXED into the eggs but this place made the eggs and put a HUGE scoop of feta cheese that was so overwhelming. I had to scoop some out and throw it out. It was too much. read more

"This is magical place, full of wonderful people, making amazing food". These are the words of my partner after eating the first bite of his breakfast sandwich at La Bagel Delight. We stumbled into this spot on a Saturday morning. The front is run like a well oiled machine. They were busy but our order was taken right away by one of the 15 people working behind the counter. We both ordered the Jersey Boy Breakfast Sandwich, which is Taylor ham, egg and cheese on a bagel. I got mine on an egg everything and my partner got a plain. The bagels are top tier. Crunchy on the outside, soft and steaming on the inside. As a born and bred New Jersey native, I was over the top excited when I saw they were using the Taylor Hand brand of pork roll- the real deal! This is so hard to find in the city. Best of all, they use board head deli meats and stack their sandwiches high. Their staff was friendly and kind, serving up the food with love. I got a hot coffee to eat with my sandwich and it was also solid. They also had a display case full of incredible looking sweet treats. I'll absolutely be back to try them out. This place is a gem! read more

Bad customer service, the food is mediocre and bland. You can get a bagel from nicer people somewhere else.

Still one of my absolute favorite places in this city. Haven't been here for 8 years - came back, exactly what I remembered. The bagels and bialys are great. The muffins (buttered and grilled!) are great too. The staff is fun - like a crew on a pirate ship, on the brink of mutiny. It's chaotic on busy days, but worth the wait. read more

Been wanting to try this place for ages but was never in the neighborhood but finally I am in the area and can try this place out. There is plenty of options on the menu with various different types of bagels, various cream cheese and a different variety of sandwich options. Everyone working there is extremely nice and efficient, they take your order right away and the food comes out soon after. The bagels are amazing - I don't think that you can go wrong with them. They are definitely large and will fill you up! Their sandwiches are also super tasty and in the beginning I was surprised to see that they were more expensive than the usual deli sandwiches but they are so worth it. They are super tasty and majority of the sandwiches are HUGE. I have yet to try out their sweets but they look super good as well. The only downside is I'm not a huge fan of their coffee - their ice coffee tasted a little burnt to me but I will definitely be back for the sandwiches for sure! read more
