    Bella Nova on a Rainbow Bagel
    Tushar S.

    Honestly, I'm torn with this review. We tried Liberty on a weekday morning, decently long line, good service, but the bagel left much to be desired. I ordered the Bella Nova on a rainbow bagel. While the lox and herby cream cheese were great, the bagel was very very hard and chewy. Took forever to ingest. Should I have tried a regular bagel? Toasted? We'll never know. Felt bad for a $15+ bagel to end up being disappointing.

    I was visiting New York so I had to stop by a bagel spot, I decided to try Liberty Bagels and I really enjoyed the bagels I had! The bagels were made fresh so they were soft and fluffy. I tried an everything bagel with scallion cream cheese and it was loaded! The cream cheese was so well flavored, airy and light, it had to be one of the best cream cheese I had. The Steakwich was equally as great, it was made with brisket, grilled onions, melted mozzarella and garlic mayo. It was delicious!

    I don't know if the crew is different but the whole atmosphere has completely changed. The bagels have become stale the past couple of times I've come & the people behind the counter are so rude. The last time I came it was 30 min before closing and they stated "they ran out of bagels" but I saw that there were bagels... I guess they were just too lazy to make a BEC. Don't even try to ask for egg whites because depending on who's working, they give you different responses.. I've been told " We don't do that" like how?? If I just got it the week prior? I also get charged differently each time so I'm not sure if they overcharge or what .. lol I don't recommend this place anymore by any means..

    Love this place. Give me liberty or give me debt. The bagels are awesome. Certified old people soft and always fresh. Always have these bagels come out hot. Just what you knead for a great breakfast. I would have posted a bagel photo but I ate it already. Sorry not sari.

    Imho, not necessarily one of the best bagels like many people believe, but also a solid option if you having a craving. Their regular bagels have a nice chew, while I also really enjoy the flagels. The jalapeño bagel is a new discovery and I am quite fond of its fluffy texture and slightly spicy aftertaste. If the lines are not long, then get yourself a nice lox sandwich with scallion cream cheese.

    Upon entering liberty bagels, they had a amazing Halloween vibe. The music was upbeat and staff lively. The service was great and the bagels were even better. Scallion cream cheese egg everything bagel.

    Lots of bagels and cream cheese selections. Nice service too. Just show your driver license or government ID to get a free rainbow bagel with birthday cake cream cheese. Bagel was delicious! Got a free bagel on my birthday !

    Rainbow bagel with Birthday Cake cream cheese (free on birthday)
    Aya E.

    Ordered: Rainbow bagel with Birthday Cake cream cheese (free on birthday): scooped out & toasted Aya's take: What's better than a NYC bagel? A free NYC bagel on your birthday! I stopped by Liberty Bagel to redeem my free bagel which is only valid on the day of your birthday. They do check your ID so make sure you have it with you when you go. The bagel itself is fresh and crisp while the cream cheese was sweet and dense. I definitely recommend scooping it out like I did to make more room for the cream cheese. Great try and shout out to Liberty Bagels for this birthday freebie!

    Delicious. Fresh. Huge selection of cream cheese and sandwiches. Birthday cake and Oreo are to die for. I was in NYC for a week and I went here twice. I'll be dreaming of these bagels from Texas.

    Vegan cream cheese
    Christine C.

    Great bagels! They are big and fluffy and delicious. They also just had such a wide variety of goodies. I had some rainbow cookies too that were fantastic. It's been a bit but it was great. They also had a big selection of cream cheese. I had plain but it was great. They even had a vegan cream cheese, but it was okay... maybe what you would expect from a vegan cheese. But the rest good - I would definitely come back for more bagels. Lots of help too - fast service, and some seats to eat your food.

    Whitefish bagel

    Not worth the hype. Waited 30+ mins for bagels which I'm okay with but unfortunately was very disappointed by the montauk sandwich. Bread is good but barely any whitefish salad . Very underwhelming for a $25 sandwich

    Rainbow bagel with strawberry cream cheese
    Monica G.

    We were walking in Manhattan and saw a random rainbow bagel on the floor, and after some research, we found Liberty Bagels! My kids were so excited to try this place. Picked up a Liberty & Rainbow with strawberry cream cheese. A "Classic Nova" with onion bagel, an everything bagel with plain cream cheese. A hazelnut iced coffee (which was surprisingly tasty) All that was great! For TRAVELERS: I wasn't a fan of the location. I think I was a bit ignorant of where I was going. We stopped on our way to Boston, so just beware. I took a star from the rating because I didn't care for the attitudes from the girls there. My husband ordered a piece of strawberry cream cheesecake, and it was moldy (lovely!). The girl "cut a fresh" cake and gave us a slice.

    Service is good and fast bagels are 100%. There isn't seating if you're looking for a sit down place but I highly recommend

Whether you're in the neighborhood or just East, you're likely going to pass it on the way to the train. With solid outdoor picnic-style tables, it's a fantastic alternative to Espresso 77. Inside there's some more great seating with a high counter, plenty of more large tables and some smaller ones. Queing up to order is fairly straightforward and the large hanging menu makes it easy to figure out what you might like. IMHO, sandwiches are the go-to. You get exactly what you expect and the price point is reasonable. What I would absolutely avoid is breakfast sandwiches. Prices on those is far less reasonable. Overall, you get exactly what you expect here and it's nice to have it as a neighborhood option.

The fact it was in a common neighborhood made it even more enjoyable of a visit! Now to the sandwich..This sandwich itself DEFINITELY lives up to the hype! It really is the REAL DEAL!! Maybe they should change the name to "Da Bomb", because it's that's good! However, through no fault of anyone, this is the learning experience I take back for my next visit: 1) Extra lettuce, tomatoes, onions, hot peppers. Potato Salad IF extra hot peppers! 2) Bring reusable containers for your sandwich, especially if you're not going home/ hotel right away. Next visit, which will be my next visit to NYC, I intend to try the roast beef and turkey hero, extra lettuce, tomatoes, onions, hot peppers. Overall, I still rate 5/5. They do a fantastic job here. Service is awesome, food is fresh, and the amount of food they offer for the price is well worth it. Definitely worth visiting again and again!!

So when he mentioned how his burger was the most popular item, I definitely had to give it a shot - $8.75 for a no frills 8oz Angus burger with American cheese, tomato, onion, lettuce (I believe I saw pickle was available, but didn't get it). What I got was the 8oz of meat, but it was on a gorgeous brioche bun, with 2 slices of beefsteak tomato and really fresh lettuce. The red onions were meticulouslu cooked down in garlic butter on his griddle, and the burger patty (100% fresh, by the way) was cooked on grill using wood chip-fueled fire. Like I said, the guy really cares about his food. The meat was cooked to order, and all of the ingredients (bun, produce) were from LOCAL SHOPS freshly delivered every morning, so no unfresh ingredients. He dared me to eat this burger and come back to tell him it's not the best in the area, and I think he has an argument. So if you want to get a really good burger, all while supporting a 1-man show who supports Astoria's local businesses, stop by! This place is a great addition to the neighborhood, and I can't wait to try the rest of his sandwiches.

I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to get a sandwich from Stacked since I haven't had one in a while. I I walked in and waited to be greeted while the staff chatted and gazed at me for about 5ish minutes or so. Finally, I'm acknowledged and asked "what can I get for you". I saw they had a Thanksgiving sandwich called the "Gobbler". I asked how long they would have it as even though it's the November special, sometimes places might make it last through the holidays. When asked I was told "it will be available until whenever November ends". This whole interaction made me feel so unwelcome. It didn't look like there was much going on there in the relm of orders, but it still took them a while to make my sandwich. Finally they bring it to the front counter. Pack it in paper and a paper bag and I'm off. I didn't have much time to eat so I scarfed it down in my car before heading down Queens Blvd. It was very good. Not my favorite, but def has potential. I also feel like, though this is a nice sized sandwich, they were a bit stingy this time around. I would say the star was the stuffing. It just tied everything together. As you all know, I love a good sandwich shop. I wish this was as good as it once was to me. Not sure if I'll give it one more shot just yet.
