There's honestly nothing very remarkable about this place. They are definitely a bit overpriced, and the bagels are smaller than they should be. Of course, it's obvious that you are paying for new Brooklyn when you come here. I'd much rather go to a real bagel shop with a much wider variety, lower price tag, and more schmear options. For four sandwiches and two bagels with cream cheese, I paid like 45 or $47. A little crazy, considering how small the bagels were and the skimpy toppings. Also, the guy taking my order seemed super confused and out of it. The service here was nothing spectacular. Clearly everyone is high. read more

2nd time visiting our local bagel spot. Great when you are craving a heavy tasty bagel sandwich. We got the Nagles Sunrise with Jalapeño Chedder Bagel and The Gotham with whole wheat Everything bagel. Nagles Sunrise: classic nice and heavy savory breakfast sandwich with everything you would want. Too heavy for me but I think most people like this! The Gotham: I really like this one. The bacon and cream cheese makes it heavier while the tomatoe, salmon, arugula lightens up the sandwich. Then it's tied together with the slight sweetness of the chili jam. Easy to eat and not as heavy feeling. Solid bagel spot! We waited no more than 15 minutes around 11am on Sunday to get takeout. read more

the man at the register today 1/17/26 at 11:30am doesn't know how to speak to a customer. Very rude. Perhaps he can use some training? Or a different job that maybe he likes more? Bagel was bad. No cap. read more

Toasted bagel with a tiny whisper of toast. Aren't we in NYC, the HOME of the bagel??! And isn't this a bagel shop above all else?

10/10 awesome bagels and a nice variety of delicious bagel sandwiches! Loved the Blue Velvet and the Veggie Nagle. Super cute spot - perfect for anyone strolling around the area and looking for somewhere with a good vibe to sit down and have a bagel or take to go. Definitely worth it! Great service - a small staff that are very friendly and make good sandwich recommendations. read more

Nagle's Bagels - Blue Velvet on a Plain Bagel - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Bedford-Stuyvesant, New York

I visit here regularly because it is basically the only bagel place near by, and I'm always craving a bagel. The inside is super cute and homey, a little small but has plenty of tables and chairs to sit and eat if you're not taking it to go! The bagels are not bad, just super inconsistent, here below are two different bagels, both bacon egg and cheese. One of them has a good amount of bacon with very very very little egg. The other bagel, has an OKAY amount of egg, definitely not measured out, and just about one slice of bacon. Both have basically no cheese. For paying 9.00 for a bec, it would be nice for it to be consistent and appropriate amount of items on the bagel. The bagels have great potential but definitely need some work on proportions and love! It's been like this for a few months now so I really hope one day it changes :) read more

I held off on reviewing Nagle's after my first time visiting last year. I waited nearly half an hour for a small, stale bagel with a smear. I said I'd give them another try (people have off days ya know), so I did recently. I placed an order for pickup. Lox on an egg bagel with tofu cream cheese. The app said my order would be ready in 15, I gave it 20. Arrived and waited another 10-15. There were others waiting too who were all frustrated. One family was there with their hungry kids, and they were still waiting when I left. To quote one of the babies who was screaming about his bagel when I walked out: "I hate them!" I honestly wasn't too bothered by the wait, myself. They had just two people working, it was a Saturday morning, things happen. But I do think after some years of being in business, they should consider a different approach to not only avoid disgruntled customers, but to also help their team members not be so stressed. Moving on to the bagel. Oof! This was the driest bagel that I've ever had in my life. That's not an exaggeration. I sent the attached picture to a friend without saying anything and their response was "the bagel looks dry." There was plenty of smoked salmon, maybe 4 capers, a tiny slice of tomato, and few massive chunks of red onion, and not nearly enough cream cheese. I couldn't even finish it. Also, there were a lot of flies inside. I know flies are impossible to fully control, especially with a door open, but there were one too many for my liking. read more

An incredible gem for Brooklyn bagels! This spot clearly is core to the Thompkins liveliness and contributes to the natural community built around Bed Stuy! The individuals who work here are some of the kindest and most amicable people I have been served by. Walking in and listening in on orders numbered in front of me there was always an anecdotal detail to be commented on, a kind complement or moment of interpersonal connection shared with the customer and the employee. Brandon and Quade have consistently been the ones to help me out and definitely carry a heartbeat to this spot- always guaranteed to be greeted with kind eyes and a smile! Not only is service lovely but the offerings from bagel sandos to delicious brownies are just perfect! I was devoted to the Veggie Nagel on a multi-grain with a brownie to accompany but am a firm believer you can't go wrong! All-in-all when in the area or seeking an exceptional bagel and some kind company, this spot is 100% the place to check out! read more

This spot has a lot of negative reviews on here, so maybe I'm one of the lucky ones. We thought it was great for grabbing a quick breakfast bite. It's a small joint, so the service was a walk up counter. Cute exterior. I got the Nagel's sunrise on a jalapeño cheddar bagel with the chili sauce and it was yummy. read more

Love the Veggie Bagel (the goat cheese and the tomato jam is an elite combo) been here a few times and the service and food is always great ! read more

I ordered the Nagles Sunrise and it by default comes on a poppyseed bagel. It was delicious but the reason I'm giving 4 out of 5 stars is because I ordered it with avocado and they didn't give me any. But they didn't charge me for it either so that's good at least. read more

Been here dozens and dozens of times over the years. This is my favorite spot for normal bagel order. These are not huge bagels with excessive amounts of cream cheese, so if you want that, go somewhere else. The place fills up, so at peak hours, it can be a wait, just like any other popular bagel place. I've gotten a dozen bagels or more for early morning sports events, and they're consistent and yummy. Service is always friendly and as speedy as possible. I prefer here to Greenberg's personally. Vibe inside is cute and cozy, but can get smoky as kitchen is right behind counter. Seating outside on thompkins is the move, but I mostly bring bagel to Herbert Von King. read more

If you don't mind a long wait and have time to spare, this might be the place for you. I waited over an hour and a half for a salmon bagel, only to end up feeling unwell afterward. It seems the staff isn't trained adequately in handling the fish, which raises concerns about food safety. I wish I'd paid more attention to the other reviews. I'm now questioning whether some of the positive ones are genuine. Be cautious and dine here at your own risk. read more

I thought that the reviews were probably over exaggerating in describing Nagle's faults. It's a cute looking storefront and in a cheery, happening part of Bed-Stuy. However, this bagel shop fell super flat. They were out of lots of ingredients, so we couldn't order the lox as intended. I got the Jerusalem instead and was disappointed on all fronts. The everything bagel tasted stale even though it was just made - something is seriously off with their recipe. It was tough and thick, and the everything seasoning just tasted mostly of sesame seeds. The hummus was awful and not spread evenly. They added pickled peppers because they were out of one of the other ingredients in the sandwich, and those were by far the highlight of the meal. What a disappointing spot! read more

I don't know why the reviews on this place are so uneven! I've visited several times, and each time I have been thrilled with the service, and the New Yorker is next level! The space is super cute, the block is lively, and the turnover insures there's always a table in the (admittedly) limited space. I really love the energy in Nagle's and my visit is always rewarded. I highly recommend it! read more

Real deal in mid Bedstuy ! Fantastic fresh bagels , excellent options and some creative ideas for bagels and sandwiches . Sad to see a no one from LA (yes that fake city out west....) writing piles of idiotic comments and take the stardom down. Dont hesitate and go get yourself REAL bagels and maybe dozen?!?! read more

Terrible bagel spot. Ordered a New Yorker, waited 40 minutes while people kept coming in and out, and being polite I didn't want to ask or rush. Finally got annoyed enough to ask, and they didn't even have my order that I paid for. Attitude from the one making the bagels and annoyed with me somehow. Finally got the bagel and it was dry, flavorless and awful. Threw it away immediately after one bite. Find any other of the 100's of bagel shops around. read more

Of course I have to show some love for my neighborhood bagel shop. And of course, when I saw the negative reviews, I got a little defensive. When I go into Nagle's, I'm greeted warmly and have never waited longer than 5 minutes for a bagel. It's cute and offers more than enough seating (with outdoor seating,too). Could their eggs be a little fluffier? Could their bacon be a little crispier? Yes. But that doesn't stop Nagle's from being the neighborhood bagel shop that I always bring friends from out of town to. They're inexpensive, reliable, and wonderful people and they will always have my service. read more

they charge $1 for Jelly and this is how much they put. Very disappointed won't be ordering from here again. read more

I've been a few times, with getting the same thing. This will be my last though. My bagels in the past have sometimes been slightly charred, but never the whole thing. This is what i opened when i got home. Decent amount of cream cheese, but both sides of my bagel were burnt /: the bottom would've been fine if the top wasn't so charred but dang read more

I'm confused by the low rating. I live in the neighborhood and frequent Nagle's often. The people are always friendly, the service good, and the bagels delicious. I've had everything from a sesame seed bagel with a schmear to the BEC to their whitefish (which was mind blowing). They're open early enough for the morning commute and close after a late lunch. Nagel's is great! read more

Went for the first time the other day but was a little skeptical because of the reviews but it's so close to me I had to try for myself. I was pleased with what I ordered. I had an everything bagel toasted with vegetable cream cheese. Definitely love that they veggies were thick and there was a good amount of carrots in there. Also the amount of cream cheese they gave was the perfect amount, didn't skimp out at all! My husband ordered an egg sandwich with white cheddar cheese and bacon but ended up having to get ham because they were out of bacon. The running out of bacon before 11am is why I had to take a star away. Based on other reviews I guess they often run out of items. All in all the food was very tasty and I will be back again because of such close proximity. read more

The bagel sandwiches are top-notch, so much so that I travel from Kensington for them. The coffee is also unusually good. Great ambience, excellent service, very homey. I only wish it were closer to where I lived so I could make it my go-to default breakfast spot. read more

My fam loves this joint-- sweet jelly jam on a savory breakfast sandwich is chef's kiss.

This is Brooklyn. The bagel bar is HIGH here. There is no room for mediocrity, or so one would think. Nagle's is a cute little neighborhoody spot on Tompkins ave. It's also the only pure "bagel place" within a several block radius. The vibe is gentrified (not necessarily a bad thing but let's call a spade a spade), the coffee is fine, the staff is generally pretty nice. HOWEVER, the bagels are just barely better than what you would get from a Bodega. They taste a "day old" to be honest. Stale, cardboardy. Edible, sure. Are you starving and dying for a bagel, Nagle's will probably be acceptable for you. Did you grow up in Philadelphia eating store bought bagels? Nagle's will probably seem pretty good to you. I'm not saying don't go here. I have nothing against the establishment. I go here occasionally as it's the only bagel place within reasonable walking distance to me. All I'm saying is, if you want a real, delicious, NYC bagel experience, Nagle's is not what you're looking for. Head down Crown Heights way and go to Bagel Pub. read more

Be prepared to wait 40 minutes for one of the most underwhelming bagels of your life. Cute location and friendly staff but not worth the wait for the bagel you will receive. read more

Nagle's is located in a great location in Bedstuy. Unfortunately though, the bagel that I had was just average. I got a bacon, egg, and cheese with chipotle mayo on an everything bagel. I thought the chipotle mayo gave it a unique twist, but everything else was subpar. The eggs were a little overcooked and the bacon was thin and sparse. The everything bagel itself barely had any 'everything' on it. I wanted to get the same thing with sausage, but unfortunately they were out. I was expecting a bit better for a bagel place in Brookyn. read more

I ate here a good while ago and after seeing other pictures I believe I went to their old location but I will review here since that one looks to be closed now. Not sure why this place isn't rated higher but I had the veggie sandwich and I wish I had gotten 2. I loved it!! The jam was so interesting and it was so flavorful. The atmosphere inside is adorable. Theres was even a cute little timecard puncher machine and markers so you can make your own record of visits. read more

Honestly a huge disappointment. Place has really gone downhill. Service and food quality. Don't waste your time. Go to Greenbergs instead

Nagle's has the best bagel sandwiches around. Excellent flavors fresh ingredients black owned business; this is the one!

100% the earlier you come here the better chance you have of getting the items you desire. Once they run out of a bagel or a spread or a jam, the likelihood of them having it again that same day are slim..once they're done they're done. That being said, one might hope to get there while they still have the onion bagels so as to get a cheese eggy sandwich combo on it (pictured) with either their in-house jam or ketchup ( go for the latter because it is spicy). Staff there is always very delightful, and speedy with the to/go orders. read more

Came in and ordered three bagels.. The cashier asked me if all three bagels were for me... Now I didn't want to be rude and reply to him in a nasty tone because they are making my food.. But seriously what type of question is that sir?? Excuse you... My husband opened his bagel and there was a long strand of blonde hair in his bagel.. He threw up immediately!!! There were only two men working behind the cash register so how could this blonde hair have wounded up inside of this bagel? There's only one explanation!! That means that where the bagel is being prepared at is completely unsanitary and dirty!!! Gross!!! This was my second time here and no I will never come back!! This place is dirty and nasty and I can't see myself having my morning breakfast with hair inside of it!!! Ewwwwwwww read more

Service is always fast and dependable. Bagels were fresh and tasty. Great neighborhood bagel shop
