I've been craving these ever since my brother-in-law brought a bunch home during our recent Philly trip! These were doughy, substantial, great for toasting and putting cream cheese and lox on. My favorites: the everything and egg bagels. My husband said that there was quite a line when he and his brother got our order, and I can see why. I would get bagels from here all the time if I lived nearby -- a definite must for whenever we come back. read more

New York Bagel Bakery - Lox Cream Cheese on Plain Bagel - Bagels Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Now that's a damn bagel. Line curled around inside for the takeout-only baked goods. Generous servings of lox and cream cheese, but the bagels themselves are way above average. Pillowy soft inside and crusty outside. Maybe perfect. Friendly but a bit disorganized. Worth a trip. read more

Best bagels I've had since moving out here. Tender and chubby bagels at a good price. Would go again!

I finally found a place that knows how to make bagels. It is the kind of place where you don't toast the bagel because it actually has the crusty outside and the soft inside. You can ask for well done and Nick the owner (and bagel master) knows you are talking oven time not toaster time. It the kind of place where the cream cheese is what your tastebuds dream about. No little tubs of grocery store cream cheese here. Instead you get the real stuff that is rich and delicious. You can watch Nick slice your bagel and smear with cream cheese. He will add lox, tomato, onion and even cucumber (my fav). He wraps in paper rather than stuffs in a little paper sheath..and hands it to you to take wherever you plan to eat it. My unexpected stop at New York Bagel, spotted as I drove down Haverford, proved to be the absolute best decision I have made when it comes to one of my favorite bites. I know I will be back. read more

See all

Each bagel is incredible!! Large, perfectly baked and delicious. I have tried all other bagel places and New York Bagel Bakery is the best!! Also try the blueberry muffins. The new ownership is doing an outstanding job-the bagels are even a touch larger. read more

Have bought a few times to freeze. MUCH BETTER to eat FRESH and right away than to freeze and then eat. Totally different experience! These are soooo delicious fresh, that you dont need to put anything on them! Have to go very early to get exactly what you want. They are almost always out of most popular ones later in the day. Not sure why they dont just make more of the most popular. read more

Always enjoyed getting bagels here How ever recently noticed them to be very dry like they weren't right out of the oven Was wondering if it were me Pumpernickel smaller than usual everything very dry egg bagels as well Anyone else?? Service counter people are always great read more

Best place for breakfast bagels are really fresh made And cup cakes love this place thank you read more

As a New Yorker born and raised from the Bronx, this spot has earned its right to have New York in its bagel title. All these other NY bagel spots are phony, this location is where it's at. This spot hands down has the best bagels on this side of the Schuylkill. People line up in droves on the weekends to get their hands on these bagels. Every single bagel is homemade, fresh,and plump. The crispness is just right and the bagels really shine when you have lox with them. If your lucky you can get your hands on some of the everything bagel sticks. The bagel sticks dipped in their cream cheese is FUEGO. I come here damn near every morning or every other morning. I apologized to the owner for going to Delancey on a Saturday. I never made that mistake again. Heads up that they are closed on Saturdays. It's mostly cash unless you plan to spend 20 bucks (which I recommend, just freeze the bagels to preserve them). read more

New York Bagel Bakery - Rack of the best bagels loading ! - Bagels Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

They're definitely in the "might be as good as anything in New York" conversation. They hit all the texture notes for me. Crusty, chewy, just a little sweet. This isn't a chain bagel. You can tell they know what they're doing. read more

New York Bagel Bakery - Sesame bagel - Bagels Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

BEST bagels around. True NY style: crusty chewy outside and soft inside. I travel a half hour from home to get here, passing several other bagel bakeries along the way. read more

I have to admit that I was hungry, and that I didn't realize that places charge for toasting bagels now, but it was delicious. This is the kind of bagel I look for; soft on the inside with that light crust experience on the outside. I got a cinnamon raisin bagel toasted with butter and sat outside on a bench to eat it even though it was a little bit chilly out. The shop itself is very small with only enough space to order, and a handful of fresh baked bagel options and muffins out on display. You can purchase specialty cream cheese or juice from a fridge, and they have a couple of options for bagel sandwiches, but a lot less than most places I'm used to. I had a toddler with me and they offered a free mini muffin. It had chocolate chips on the top and he enjoyed the heck out of it. My rating really reflects the quality of the bagel and the service, not so much the limited options for sandwiches. read more

We are from the south where there are no good bagels, so when we were passing through the northeast, we were looking to eat a bagel. The staff here were incredibly friendly, and the bagel and scallion cream cheese were absolutely delicious. Just as good as I remembered from the northeast! read more

Definitely the closest to a New York bagel in the Philly region, and I'm from NY, so I speak from experience! Nice and crusty on the outside, and chewy/soft on the inside. Really friendly, family-run business, and a polite, hard-working team that prioritizes customer service along with great bagels and spreads. Now my favorite place for bagels! read more

Best Kosher bagels in Philly hands down. Seriously, these are the real deal. Service is always professional. Highly recommended their catering. read more

First, this place makes maybe the best bagels in the entire area. There may be places around Philly just as good but if there are, I'm not sure where they are. They aren't close by and bagels at places that have all the buzz lately, like Kismet, aren't anywhere nearly as good as the bagels here. The texture of and variety of bagels here are excellent. The issue I have with this place is cost for things that aren't bagels. In particular, their in-house spreads are very expensive to buy in a container and even on a to-go singular bagel. They don't let you use a credit card with out a fee for purchases under $20. So when I went in with five dollars to get one bagel with some cream cheese on it, I figured that would be enough to pay, including tax. I find it absurd that one bagel with some cream cheese is $5.36 with tax, at any place, let alone this place. The best way to enjoy this place, then, is to buy a bag of several bagels, half dozen, a dozen, etc. and avoid their spreads or prepared bagels. It's much more reasonable to buy bulk bagels here, alone. read more

For a few years now, I've wanted to check out this place, even requesting coworkers coming from that direction to bring me bagels. It's never happened, until I was in Bala Cynwyd early one morning, with an hour to kill. Yelp told me that they opened at 6:30, but there weren't any hours posted on the door. I arrived around 6:10 and the place was dark, but there were people inside. No problem, I have time to kill, so I pop in the headphones and rock out for a bit. A few minutes later, I noticed the lights come in and a few minutes after that I noticed an open sign. I walked inside to the heavenly smell of fresh bagels. I was promptly assisted, but I inquired if any other flavors were coming. I opted to wait for the egg bagels to finish, but even if I didn't have time to kill, I'm sure I still would have waited for that. Once I ordered my baker's dozen of pretty much one of each, I left with the biggest smile on my face. These things were huge. Growing up, I was told a tale that the baker's dozen was an extra for the person delivering the food, by my grandfather who was a baker. He would always tell me that when he was selling baked goods, children would be sent to get the family order and he'd give them their choice to eat on the walk home. I've since learned that the baker's dozen really comes from medieval times of cheating customers, but this baker's dozen reminded me of my grandfather. I had to eat on right away in the car, by myself, right away, while it's so hot, no toppings, just gluttony. No regrets. This bagel was cheery, tasty, and so puffy. Slowly, I became so sad, knowing my wife was going to toast these bagels when we got home. You're only supposed to toast bad bagels in my opinion. Wait are there bad bagels? Sub-par maybe? She's going to ruin this beautiful texture, because that's how she eats bagels and I have to stop her. We can toast them tomorrow... Well, she did want them toasted, but we didn't do that. They were so good and even the next day they were still better than most, but we did toast them. Made a nice breakfast sandwich, which was toasty on the outside, but so soft on the inside. Very happy that I finally made it to this place. read more

Delicious! I ordered a bagel with lox, cream cheese, red onion and capers and it was great! Good quality and piled high.

This is absolutely the best bagel place I have ever been to. Like by far. The guy who runs it, Nick, is a really nice guy. But honestly these bagels speak for themselves. Yes there is a long wait during peak times. Yes he may run out of certain things. Yes he doesn't always have muffins. But these bagels are soooo much better than anything else in the Philadelphia that it's absolutely worth it. Also the muffins are amazing too. If u have not been then this is a 100% must go and be patient. He is a small business and quality is the driver here not speed. read more

New York Bagel Bakery - Bagels Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I wasn't that hungry, just a bit peckish. I'd meant to only eat half an everything bagel...but somehow, I couldn't stop eating and *poof* gone. Not only was the bagel fresh and soft, but the everything seasoning was perfection, not too salty and a bit toasty. The cream cheese is good, too. If you need a fresh bagel, this is the spot. My family says it's the best bagel spot in all of Philly, and I believe it! read more

Simply the best everything bagel ever! I specially make a trip here just for the bagels. Wish there was one closer to center city! Nice staff! There's a parking lot! read more

New York Bagel Bakery - Hot and Fresh Everything Bagels - Bagels Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Amazing service and offerings offered consistently. Bagels are fresh and delicious.

This is without question the best bagel bakery in the Philadelphia area. It's the place to go if you're looking to pick up a dozen bagels for brunch - they bake all the traditional varieties - but sometimes I'll just stop in to buy a "flat", a flat bagel drowning in a topping. It's kosher, so closed Saturdays. And it's pure takeout without a hint of seating. read more

My husband went and grabbed a dozen bagels from here while he was waiting for me. The bagels had good flavor, they were crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. They were a pretty good size too. I don't know how my husband ate like 5 of them in like a 3 hour period, I ate 2 and was full. They just had all the basic flavors. I like getting a couple weird specialty flavors like French toast, pumpkin etc. but they didn't have anything like that here. The most interesting bagel I got here was Cinnamon raisin. I was hoping to at least get a blueberry but they didn't have it. There wasn't much cream cheese selection either. My husband said the options were either plain or strawberry cream cheese, so he got a tub of plain. Unless he was lying to me, cause he hates flavored cream cheese. Anyway the bagels were pretty good, but it's a no frills bagel place. My husband really enjoyed it. If we're ever in the area early in the morning again, I'm sure he will want to come by again. read more

We went on a Sunday morning and it was a small line, however expedited as there were plenty of employees to keep it going . Our first visit suggested by google and was not disappointed. We ordered a half dozen of blueberry and egg bagels and they were freshly baked, warm and delicious!! The lox cream cheese did not disappoint us. We are big foodies and this bagel bakery is a firm 5 stars!! read more

This as close to a bagel from NYC as I can get. Oddly, it's in an area off street. you might not even find it. the staff were quick for a Sunday morning. This was my first egg bagel (get there early they sell out fast on the weekends). I was kind of surprised I could find a bagel this good in that area, but then again you gotta stop and take a look around I guess. read more

Seriously, the best bagels in Philadelphia, hands down. New York Bagel Bakery has been in business for a very long time. As in, back when I was a teenager I remember getting bagels there. There's a reason for that: They do one thing, and they do it exceptionally and consistently well. This is a bagel bakery, plain and simple. There's a counter, racks with many varieties of bagels & some muffins, a refrigerated cooler with varieties of cream cheese. A robust community bulletin board. Behind the counter and racks, the baking operation. No cakes, pies, cookies, donuts. The only wedding cake you're getting here is one made of bagels...which isn't a bad idea. Insider tip: If you're someone who likes to toast their bagels, and/or you eat them fast, check out the day-old bagels, bagged on a front shelf for you to select from. Half dozen for $1.50 and they are very good. Bakery is open 6 days a week - closed on Saturdays - starting at 6:30 AM. They're tucked into an old strip center behind the McDonald's on Haverford Ave at City Line Ave. Center has a very visible entrance on Haverford and a slightly more hidden but marked entrance on City Line - in between office type buildings. Easy free parking in their lot. read more

Legit bagels!!!!! I'll be a regular here for sure! They have all the spreads too. You can purchase to take home or het it on your bagel. The bagels are big, soft and comparable to NYC. Glad I found this place! read more

I've been to most of the Philly bagelries that everyone is raving about (some because of the sandwiches the make with their bagels). But, if you grew up with real bagels, this is the only place to get them: the true shiny crust and soft chewy insides. Get there when the bagels are still warm and you're in for a treat. Sorry that they're not open Saturdays and other holidays, but it's a small price to pay. read more

Best bagels in the Philly area! I periodically buy a baker's dozen and keep them in my freezer to eat over the course of 1-2 weeks.

I'm in here at least once a week and look forward to it every time. Didn't know bagels can be as good as they are here.
