Stopped here on my walk today and ordered a sausage egg and cheese on an everything bagel. It was very tasty The cheese was very good The bagel was smaller than I've gotten in that other places but that wasn't a deal breaker. The seating is adequate and the tables were clean. You can walk up and order or you can call it in. Overall it was a nice experience if I'm close by I would stop in and eat but it's not a go-to destination in my opinion read more

Came in for a bagel today, I forgot to ask for it toasted and the lady didnt give me an option either. so clearly it went over our head. she already had cream cheese on it and i asked can it be toasted she said "no." i asked well can i get a bagel toasted? She said unless you pay for this one and the toasted one. i proceeded by saying no ill pay for the toasted one. she proceeded and said nope i cant give it to you. i use to work in a dinner and all the food not used goes in the garbage, so im confused as to why im denied a bagel. read more

I would give this place a zero if I could. Maybe the breakfast stuff is better , but we got 2 burgers and a Cuban that weren't worth a second bite. The beef patties were the cheapest of the cheap with no flavor that made me think this meat had been in the freezer for a long time. One was just a cheese burger but the other was supposed to be a California burger. Not so much. It was just a dry cheese burger with pickles. The worst part was that they each cost almost $9!! Think about what you can get at a place like 5 Guys for that. The Cuban was a Cuban in name only as it appeared to have turkey on it Crazy It was horrible AND expensive read more

These were really great fresh bagels!!.. my husband and I tried this place out and we're very pleased with the freshness and perfect crunch of the bagels. Definitely recommend!! read more

Newyork Cafe & Grill - Bagel - Bagels Near Me - Edison, New Jersey

I went to this bagel place ONCE! There will never be a second time especially considering what I paid and what I got. I walked into this place and first of all when you walk into any sort of establishment there should be some sort of lighting, it makes the customer feel welcomed not making them feel like they're not walking into some some abandoned joint. There were 2 ladies who looking like they were running shop and the one taking orders from customers was BEYOND rude! I said "hey, how are you?" And got a blank stare as if I was burdening her by wanting to give her my money. I ordered a Taylor ham, egg whites and provolone cheese with hot sauce. The order took close to 30 minutes to make. The lady behind the grill making my sandwich wasn't even wearing gloves. Like come on people it's 2019 and is cross contamination not a thing anymore? From grabbing bread, raw eggs, raw meats and god knows what else. So remember how I ordered egg whites? My next point. She opens a little rinky dink fridge and pulls out one of those egg white cartons you get at shoprite. But hey at this point I sat down on my phone to kill time. Eventually my sandwich was ready. But in the mean time I did keep looking up and the lady working behind the counter (the rude one) didn't bother to wear gloves either as she served customers bagels and pastries and whatever was on display. So now I'm home figuring I'll eat this considering I paid close to $10 for it. I open the sandwich and saw melted American cheese but not only that they didn't even bother putting any hot sauce on it or ketchup for that matter, on the taylor ham wasn't even cooked fully either. Like seriously?! Lady 1 writes my order down and hands Lady 2 the ticket. Lady 2 then reads my ticket and proceeds to butcher my order. I took a few bites and threw the rest out. The bagel was drier then the Sahara too! They definitely need to get it together here because Supreme Bagel is right down the road! Moral of the story: Don't eat here! They don't use gloves, they use carton egg whites, the foods not cooked through and staff is beyond rude! read more

DISGUSTING!!!! Absolutely, hands down, 100 percent the worst bagel sandwiches ever!!! The lady cooking them doesn't even wear gloves!!!! Nasty, nasty, nasty! First the bagels were hard and stale! I came in at 0830!!! How is that even possible. Second I ordered Taylor ham and egg. No cheese!!! My sister is lactose and tolerant. read more

Probably the worst bagel sandwich ever. Bagel was hard and stale. I asked for taylor ham and egg and she said cheese? I said no, please no cheese! Guess what, there was cheese. Taylor ham was barely cooked. I could have chipped a tooth and choked on that bagel sandwich. Only good thing about my experience was my Snapple iced tea. read more

Newyork Cafe & Grill - The proof is in the reviews! Old hard bagels and they do not wear gloves! - Bagels Near Me - Edison, New Jersey

I visited bagel city this past week and was very satisfied with my meal. I'm a vegetarian so I decided to get a grilled cheese with avocado, jalapeños, grilled onions and tomato! Very tasty and served with fries! Staff was also super helpful with helping me make a decision on what to order. Definitely check out this small family owned business for a quick eat! read more

We were craving bagels and were visiting in the area so we popped in here. I was pleased to see a local bagel place with tons of options on the menu from sandwiches, baked goods, sweets, pancakes, etc. I had a sesame bagel with egg and cheese. It took a few minutes to prepare which is a good sign that it's made fresh. I enjoyed my bagel very much! Unfortunately I did not see Charlene A.'s review where she mentioned that they don't prepare the food with gloves. Gasp! I didn't notice but if I do return, I'll make note of it in my review. Man, my bagel sandwich was good and inexpensive though... No glove, no love! read more

I come here often for my bacon egg & cheese on an everything bagel and it's consistently delicious. The staff is super welcoming and always remembers my order! Great small business with lots of options read more

Friendly staff but not a SINGLE person was wearing gloves. Not when they took my bagels from the toaster, or put the sandwich together, or ANYTHING. One girl bare-handed 2 pieces of American cheese and laid them onto my sandwich after just cleaning things behind the counter. That's my only complaint because hello - the customers can clearly see you. read more

First time here. Place is clean and welcoming. However, the staff isn't. The menu looks appealing and tasteful. Got a bagel with cream cheese and was very surprised to watch the lady work all around the kitchen and handle my bagel and others orders with no gloves! Went night freezer to grab frozen grilled chicken then soon after took my bagel from the toaster n added cream cheese THEN handled the register so I can pay in cash.... Not very sanitary. I'm afraid how my stomach will feel right I consume this bagel filled with germs... Yum! read more

Ordered a porkroll egg and cheese through Uber eats and got a bagel with cream cheese. There was a decent amount hair in the cream cheese. It looked like it would have been good if it wasn't filled with hair or was what I ordered. read more

The driest bagel I have ever had. Ordered around 9:30am bagels should be fresh but I have a feeling that this is just how their bagels are. Save your time and money and go down the street to bagel supreme. read more

UPDATE: This place is great. Order is right EVERY time. Food is fresh EVERY time. Service is great EVERY time. I know people and places aren't perfect but in the morning on the way to work where everything is ALWAYS crazy, it's nice to have a smiling face make you and easy breakfast for reasonable cost. Thank you all read more

Hand made fresh every day. Go there for breakfast a lot as it feels like breakfast in my own kitchen. Everyone should try it out for themselves and not just for breakfast. Salads sandwiches don't matter. Fresh every time. read more

Not a fan of bashing a local business - nice to see a family owned business near by. The only thing that sticks out here is the "no gloves". The younger girls who worked there did used gloves but the older women who cooked the food did not. It is nasty especially since I saw them put lox and tomatoes on someone's bagel without gloves. It's just so easy - not sure why they don't do it. The bagels aren't as bad as I've read in some of the reviews and I'll most likely be back but not for any cooked food. read more

I ordered it took over two hours to get to my house it arrived cold I ordered Taylor ham egg and cheese on A BAGEL it came on a cardboard roll I called to tell them they messed up the order only for them not to answer my call i used my girlfriends phone they picked up they were rude didn't try or even offer to fix my order Never again I wouldn't recommend them to my worst enemy read more

I tend to eat out a lot and am always looking forward to trying new places, most of the time I look at reviews on yelp before trying somewhere new for the first time. There were some positive and some negative reviews so I figured I would give it a try and form my own opinion based off of my experience. I went to Bagel City in Edison and was greeting with a warm welcome from two women behind the counter although I can tell they were busy they were very attentive to me. I order a everything bagel with lox, cream cheese, and tomatoes and onions and grabbed a large coffee for only $10.68 for me that was a great price considering I am often eating in the city where you are paying close to 20 dollars for that... After the first bite I knew I made a good choice and didn't let the negative reviews convince me not to try this place out both the bagel and coffee were AMAZING. I definitely plan on going back to this place and will recommend it to anyone of my friends that are in the area. Use your better judgement and give this place a try it was awesome. read more

I've always been a regular at Bagel City! I truly missed them when COVID hit and caused them to close down. I'm so happy that they are back! Food is as delicious as it's always been and bagels are even better, I hear there is a new baker! As always cleanliness is impeccable. Just putting a message out there to support our local businesses, we've lost too much already out here! read more

I stopped by here for the first time and it was a warm and inviting restaurant with a very friendly staff, so I had very high hopes. I ordered two bagels (one salt and one everything) on an early Sunday morning and unfortunately both bagels were very stale and on the hard side. I'd expect it late in the day, but not 8am on s Sunday. Maybe it was a fluke, but was certainly a disappointment. read more

I don't think the bagels are even made in house. They don't have that fresh hand rolled bagel taste real bagel places do. If you're in a rush it'll do. Bagels are comparable to Dunkin donuts. I usually have to repeat my order more than once to the people working there. And I noticed they don't prepare the food with gloves. Just their bare hands. Ewwww. read more

I use to go here a lot, but after today I definitely will not be back. The owner and her sister are fantastic. The food however is not good anymore. Today was a disaster. My husband wanted turkey sausage, or beef sausage. We were told that " they only sell pork products " They did however have turkey bacon. I ordered an egg and cheese on a toasted bagel with butter. My bagel was not toasted and it was smothered in butter. The cheese was not melted into the eggs. We were charge $13 for something that wasn't worth $3. The entire meal for both of us gets . read more

The bagel was on the hard side and the cream cheese was of an odd taste. I wouldn't say bad but different then most. The most appalling thing about this place was the women that run it. Just as I walked in the door I was immediately met by two ignorant condescending women who were immediately judging me. I was picking up food for a customer and ordered an additional bagel while there which I wanted toasted. The woman said it will take A few minutes to toast. I said that's fine which she immediately repeated as if it was any of her business to begin with. Just serve the food lady. She acted as if I was unentitled to be hungry when they clearly don't miss any meals of their own. I then asked for a different can of soda for my customer because the one they gave me was bulging on the top which is a clear sign something is wrong otherwise they would always look this way. Well the other woman actually had to get up from where she was sitting during work hours in a bagel place and had to walk maybe 5 feet to give me a different can. She puts the bulging one back into the fridge and makes an ignorant stupid remark like well they are just going to throw the can out anyhow. I thought especially if it explodes in their face but kept my mouth shut. So first they chastise me for ordering food that would take a few minutes then they chastise me for wanting to give My customer a better can. Which is it? I Never before had such rude service. I would not recommend. Very negative atmosphere and vibes and plenty of bagel places around that aren't rude and condescending! read more
