Smokehouse Brisket Egg Sandwich
Jordan C.

Came here twice during my family and I's visit to Williamsburg. This was near our hotel and a super convenient non-sit down breakfast place. This is a chain, so it is not a local place, but nonetheless it was still really good! They definitely get busy, but it appeared that they do replenish the bagels throughout the morning. The inside is reminiscent of a deli, nothing too special, very laid back environment. It is kept pretty clean. The service is attentive and friendly. They were working very hard to keep up with the many incoming orders! The first visit, my mom and I both got the Avocado egg white sandwiches. I wanted mine on asiago, but they were sold out of those at the moment, so I opted for the cheddar bagel instead. Although shortly after I completed by order fresh, piping hot asiago bagels came out. My mom got hers on a honey-wheat bagel. The sandwich consisted of grilled egg whites, avocado, tomato, spinach, and roasted tomato spread. I added turkey bacon to this for an uncharge. This was decent, the avocado could have been riper. The sandwich was kinda bland, the bagel didn't carry a strong cheddar taste, as I was hoping for. The added turkey bacon definitely added some more to the sandwich, would recommend doing that! This was still a decent, light, healthy option though. The next visit I ordered the Santa Fe Egg White. This sandwich consisted of a thintastic asaigo bagel (I opted for a regular asiago bagel instead), grilled egg whites, turkey sausage, cheddar, and a roasted tomato salsa & jalepeno salsa cream cheese. I liked this one much more than the avocado, a lot heartier. The cream cheese added a nice, creamy kick to the sandwich. It complimented the sharpness of the asiago bagel and the cheddar cheese. The turkey sausage was really yummy with the egg whites as well! My mom ordered the nova lox on pumpernickel, my dad got the seasonal smokehouse brisket egg sandwich, and then my sister got the classic croissant sandwich. They all also enjoyed their meals! Overall, I thought this was a solid bagel place. I don't know how authentic they were, but they certainly hit the spot! The inside was family friendly and very chill. While the service was as efficient as possible, especially considering how busy it was getting. All our bagels were freshly made to order. The bagels were very yummy, I would check it out if you need a quick breakfast while in the area.

Very popping spot! My bagel sandwich was great and my husband liked his salmon as well.. I loved the pepper cream cheese, very tasty. The inside had several tables to sit; and the bathrooms were clean with a changing table which I appreciate. The service was great too: t he gentleman calling the name notified I was with the baby and brought me my food. I appreciated that! Check it out!

Bagel selection - always fresh made with Manhattan water

Manhattan bagel is a great alternative to your big box chain bagel/ pastry/ sandwich places. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful, and if you're there on the right morning you'll catch their staff talking about the Yankees game, which only adds to the traditional New York deli atmosphere. Their selection of bagels is diverse and there's something for everyone. Every bagel comes with more than enough cream cheese and their sandwiches don't lack either. My go to is the Nova Lox. Today I happened to get it on a croissant which if you can tell from the picture is flaky and amazing on its own. If you go on the weekends they have a small selection of oven fresh baked pasties which are to die for and sell out quickly. If you get your bagels to go they offer dog friendly bagels as well. I've had the chai tea both hot and iced, and while it's nothing overly special, it's comparable to competitors. The coffee is okay, but again, I'm coming there for the food. Overall a great breakfast lunch spot, and you will definitely leave satisfied.

Seriously?  Should I buy them a mop?

What is going on at Manhattan Bagel? 11:30 on a Sunday and there are few bagels left, the floors are filthy and the trash is overflowing. Not the experience we wanted to have and not what we expect from this location. New management? Something's up, it used to be a decent place to grab a bagel. If it wasn't for James, this place would be a total write off.

Bacon, egg, and cheese croissant
Michael M.

The order was correct. That's the only positive thing I can say about this meal. We waited 20 minutes for two items. The croissant was hard and crunchy, not buttery or flaky at all. My wife's breakfast burrito had one slice of "bacon" on it, which was really just a soggy strip of fat. She had wanted a bagel, but they were sold out of everything but garlic at 10am. She also got a pumpkin muffin, which tasted like the sort of thing that one might buy at a gas station: very artificial and not at all tasty. This is the third time that we've tried Manhattan Bagel, and it has been lackluster each time. But this time, the food was barely edible. It's rare that I return food to complain and ask for a refund, but I would have done it today had my children not had more pressing concerns.

Enjoying this delicious bagel from Manhattan bagels.

Dinning Experience: 2/5 Coffee: 4/5…read moreFood: 3/5 Prior to eating at this location, we had died across the street and thought it'd be nice to give it a try based on the outward experience and the folks sitting out in front at the sidewalk tables. It looked to have a good vibe, but once we walked in, we realized it was a coffee shop that served food. You have to get in line grab a menu and place your order. Any coffee, water or juice juices are delivered on the right side of the bar and the food is delivered on the left side of the bar. And what I mean delivered that's where you have to go to pick it up. The food is served on Small paper plates so you will lose some of your food as you try to cut or move it.. I ordered the breakfast platter which was scrambled eggs, choice of meat, potatoes, and toaste. My partner had the cheese omelette with sourdough toast. There was nothing special or extraordinary about the food. With the small paper plates that they use food easily fell onto the table top. They don't offer water in a cup, but rather you can buy a bottle of water. If you didn't realize that after you ordered, you have to go back and get in line so that you purchase your water. (We assumed they had water/cups to use). We left felling unsatisfied.

Discovered this indie coffee shop in Williamsburg near Busch Garden exit off Merrimac when I was…read moredown for a brief visit and OMG - BIGGGGG LOVE!!! So much to love about this new discovery besides the fact that it's NOT a Starbucks lol and for those that know me, you know I love and love to support and discover tucked away indie coffee places (see my reviews!). This place is also a roastery and sells their own bean blends. I don't know the history behind the shop and name but was told it is chemistry themed and owned by W&M alum - yassssss! Service is SUPER friendly and excellent so that's a bonus! I lovvvvvvve that the latte menu is chock full of super creative seasonal flavors - so many to choose from!! I stopped by twice while in town and staying just down the street. Had a hot Rose Macaron latte and the next day had the Lemon Bar. Both were DELICIOUS. NOT OVERLY SWEET BUT WITH SUBTLE FLAVORS AND BOLD ESPRESSO TASTE. NOTTTTTT WIMPY WEAK. Both days I had the OG Bacon Egg Cheese sando on an ET bagel that was a decent accompaniment to my seasonal lattes which were clearly the stars of the show. I was there during the week - once mid afternoon, the other day late morning and it was not crowded at all both days. The seating area is HUGE. 2 separate adjacent rooms - walk through the front ordering area and you'll find a large, super cozy and inviting "living room" type space with comfy couches, armchairs, dining tables with chairs and even cubes for studying. Dark and moody vibes. SUPER COZY, RELAXING AND KEPT VERY CLEAN AND TIDY. The other seating area has a bunch of tables and chairs, lots of windows, brighter and more conducive for gathering. I took and posted a bunch of pics and some vids so check them out. So glad to have discovered this coffee spot and gem! Will definitely be back when I visit Williamsburg again! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

Our food was very good, the poutine was honestly one of the best things I had to eat in a long time. Mixed with the fried egg every bite was genuinely a "perfect bite".

The almond butter and apricot jam were fantastic but the bread was tough to bite. We both got the poutine which he enjoyed, I thought it was bland and lacked much in the way of flavor. Disappointing plus not much in the way of tater tots. They didnt have the doggie menu I saw online which is why I came here but they did make up a beef patty with rice. My dogs ate the beef and played with the rice. And tap water was served which wouldn't have been so bad bit again it was served at room temp which made it taste odd. All in all probably not a spot I will return

The service was amazing, we were told about the menu, the history of the table we were sat at, even how they clean it with water and vinegar to keep healthy. The thrifting that took place to make all the pieces look nice in the space. Now to the food, I had the tomato toast as my entree, it was simply the best, freshest thing I've ever tasted. I couldn't believe my mouth. The tomatoes tasted so fresh and the sourdough bread was amazing. We were told all the food is locally sourced down to the bread from across the street. The kids macaroni and the kids Ao Burger was very flavorful. Boyfriend had the Ao burger and he stated it was delicious. I would highly recommend! I believe the server we had was Jazmine, she was very nice and was extremely knowledgeable about the menu, the vibes and was on top of drinks and made our first experience there a great one!
