So today I had a pool day. And I wanted to take a sandwich out to enjoy. I thought about Neko's because I was lucky enough to get a birthday certificate for $ 10 off through Toast, and it even let me stack my redeemable points, which I absolutely love. So for a total of eight dollars, I got this fantastic sandwich. I decided to get the open-face salmon-and-avocado sandwich, which was fantastic. I asked them to hold the sprouts, but they forgot, which turned out to be for my benefit because they were actually good in the sandwich. Their mistake was in my favor. Anywho, I'm excited to go back and try another sandwich or bagel-cream cheese combination.
This was my first time here after having it on my must try list for a long time. My open face ultimate lox bagel was absolutely delicious and enough for 2 people! The bagel was the perfect texture; soft with just the right amount of pull! My iced coffee was really good as well. It was smooth and not bitter at all, exactly what an iced black coffee should be. Because it's good, it's extremely busy so I'll order on the app next time but it was well worth it. We enjoyed the outdoor seating. It's was perfect for a Sunday morning stop as we walked there from home ate and walked back home. No complaints... we'll be back.
I've been very excited to try Nico's since I've heard great things. I went on a weekday during the Christmas week, so it was very busy. I'm sure it was busier than a normal weekday. After ordering on the kiosk I waited about 20 minutes for my order to be ready. I ordered a plain bagel with lox cream cheese, and I can't say it was anything extraordinary. I probably enjoyed the cream cheese more than the bagel itself, but I'll probably get a flavored bagel the next time I visit. I also ordered the home fries, and these were amazing. It was definitely my favorite from my meal. The seasoning was perfect. In addition to sides like home fries, they also sell other items, like croissant breakfast sandwiches, drinks like lattes and mochas, and even omelettes. I'll visit again to try some of their other items.
Nicos!!!! I have fallen in love with the Crabby Bagel. It is SO GOOD! The crab filling is melt in your mouth goodness and the bagel is perfection. I've also had the iced pumpkin latte which is good too! They keep a steady flow of customers but the wait isn't too bad. Usually about 10ish minutes if they are really crowded. The workers are very welcoming and kind.
Walking in Nico's all that I could say is, "Wow!". The decor and vibe is beautiful and energetic, then you see the variety of bagels takes the experience to a higher level. The customer service was so friendly and helpful. Be prepared to wait a little for your food but it's definitely worth the wait!
Reliable and fast service! I love the options of so may bagels and cream cheeses and I can't wait to return. It's a cute shop with some seating, but opted for to go. I got the loaded lox bagel and loved it. So much smoked salmon packed on the bagel with fresh tomato, onion, and lettuce. I chose the pumpernickel bagel with the scallion cream cheese. Both tasted phenomenal and I liked that you could have the bagel cut "skinny". My partner got the open faced lox bagel, which is the same but topped with avocado. Ordered the watermelon mint juice. Not too sweet and really refreshing.
Nico's has been on my foodie radar for one reason.....their famous crab bagel. It's the talk of the town, but snagging one is no easy feat! I've tried twice and struck out both times. The first attempt was my fault; I showed up on the wrong day (rookie mistake). The second time, it sold out before I could get my hands on it. Thankfully, my backup choice didn't disappoint. I grabbed their limited-edition Spooky Bagel for Halloween and turned it into a sausage, egg, and cheese masterpiece.....absolutely delicious! To top it off, I ordered the Cinnamon Toast Crunch iced coffee, which was just as amazing. The hunt for the crab bagel continues, and trust me, I'm not giving up. Word to the wise: it's only available Fridays and Saturdays, so call ahead or order online early. Otherwise, you might end up like me -- crab bagel-less but still smiling because everything else is that good.
My first experience here was at their 1 year anniversary on Friday. I really enjoyed their Crab Bagel and Strawberry Smoothie. The bagel was cheesy, loaded with crab, and every bite hit. The customer service and atmosphere was excellent as they had a big crowd to celebrate their 1 year anniversary.
I've driven by Nico's Bagel & Brunch so many times and finally decided to stop in. Boy, am I glad I did! At first, I wasn't sure where to order when I walked in and stood behind a couple, but I noticed two kiosks off to the side which made it super easy. The staff was really friendly and helpful. I originally ordered the Buttery Pecan Mocha, but they were out and suggested the Iced Ultimate PSL instead, and wow, it was delicious. I also tried the pumpkin spice bagel with pumpkin cream cheese schmear, and it was amazing. This isn't your typical Bagel spot, they have a lot of options! Can't wait to come back and try the Crabby Bagel next time, and maybe the gelato too. Highly recommend!
Friendly service and tasty bagels! I tried the BLT and Crabby bagel and catch this-- they don't skimp on the bacon or the crab. The bagel was delicious (honestly can't put it in to words) just try for yourself! Let's just say the crab bagel represents Maryland well lol I'll be back for another bite!
Nico's Bagels & Brunch is the place to be for quick and delicious meals. I went on a workday it was busy but the service was great. The staff is knowledgeable about the food items and patient with new customers. It's well light spacious, you can order your food via kiosk, or person to person. I love the food ordering options as well. I ordered the bagel sandwiches, refreshers, and sub roll for group. The food was hot, seasoned, and the bread was not soggy at all.
Such a great addition to the waugh chapel area! I've heard this place can get pretty busy, but I was able to order my food quick and easy. They have plenty of staff to help with ordering and any questions. The lox bagel was great, and something I'd order again. Would definitely come back to try more of their menu!
I noticed Nico's Bagels & Brunch when I patronized another business in the area and I said, I have to look this spot up! Glad I did because they have some terrific options for breakfast and more. Bagels, Bagel sandwiches for breakfast and for lunch, omelets, cute and fun drinks, milkshakes, gelato and so much more! Located on the same row as Mucho Gusto, Nico's offers dinners the option of dinning in, take out and online ordering. I placed an order online and picked up my food. The online ordering process was very easy and to the point. I ordered the sausage, egg and cheese on a wheat everything bagel with home fries. My food was ready when I arrived and it was piping hot. I went home to partake and I must say, the bagel sandwich was gigantic and delicious! The home fries were also tasty! All and all, I was highly impressed! Great selection of bagels, friendly staff and great location. I'm just glad I happened to see this location on a whim, otherwise, I would be missing out on some awesome food!

Gave this place a try after hearing all the hype. NOT WORTH IT. I ordered DoorDash and they sent USED cream cheese. I called and told the manager he said "that is how it comes" and asked for my number to send me photos to prove it. He did not prove anything other than the fact they sent me someone's used food. Absolutely DISGUSTING and terrible customer service. Just go to Naval bagels, they're much better. read more

Nico's Bagel is a very popular bagel shop in the Gambrills area. The story behind it and how it got started is touching. The bagels are always fresh and they're similar to NY style bagels. Foot traffic could get pretty busy here in the mornings and definitely on the weekends, so I would recommend visiting when they first open or order in advance. I tried four different types of bagels from Nico's. The following consisted of the jalapeño, blueberry, everything and cinnamon raisin with vegan cream cheese spread. The vegan cream cheese tastes kinda similar to dairy cream cheese, but with a lighter taste and texture. All the bagels were plushy, good and fresh, however my absolute favorite bagel is the jalapeño, yum! I would recommend paying Nico's Bagel a visit. read more

This place gets really busy on the weekends, but it's well worth the crowd and small wait. The coffee and lattes are delicious. My daughter LOVES the mango smoothie. I had the Open Face Loaded Lox Bagel; it was delicious and plentiful. I didn't eat for the rest of the day. read more
Stopped by Nico's Bagels after noticing it on a recent family dinner. It was a decent crowd for a late Monday morning, there is plenty of seating inside to enjoy your food, but I got my order to go. The staff was friendly and offered help even though I didn't need it. I ordered at one of the kiosks, and waited about 10 minutes for my order to be ready. There's so many options, I'll have to go back, especially to try their viral crab dip bagel (only offered fri-sun). The drink was good, not too sweet, but I wanted a little more pecan flavor. The sandwich was bomb, soft bagel, good ingredients, lots of flavor. I'll be back for sure. read more

Ordered the "Lucky 7" bagels via DoorDash this morning among a couple other items. I received 5 of the 7 bagels in the bag to include 2x plain, 1x Asiago, 1x egg, and 1x everything. Seems unlucky for me in my opinion. Luckily DoorDash credited me for the inconvenience. read more

Thank you for taking the time to write a review Tyler. We're glad…
Nico's Bagel in Gambrills seriously outdid themselves with this one! The crabmeat bagel is next level--fresh, buttery, and packed with real lump crab that melts right into the warm, toasted bagel. You get that perfect balance of savory seafood and creamy goodness in every bite. It's not your average breakfast sandwich--this is Maryland flavor done right. Definitely worth the drive! I did not particularly care for the individual handling the online orders. She was a little on the unfriendly side. read more
Nicos is in a really good location with a lot of parking options. The service was good, but a bit chaotic with very little waiting space. It was busy when I visited (1030 on a Saturday morning) and I felt like I was always in the way no matter where I stood. They offer a wide variety of bagels (true to their name...) and other items. I enjoyed my bagel and will definitely go back to try other items that sounded great on the menu. read more

I ordered my breakfast online last night because the crabby bagels go so fast! The owner greeted me and he was as nice as the last time I met him. He told me how the MD crab was caught early in the week, processed and delivered for us for the weekend. The restaurant was full and friendly with singles, couples and families enjoying and picking up their food. I really enjoy this place and wish I could get by more but that would be a problem too lol. read more
I have driven by this place in several times, and had a hankering to try it. I love carbs, it's a guilty pleasure of mine. Due to reading the other reviews because of the wait, I placed my order in advance on the website which was seamless. I was able to walk in pick up my order about 15 minutes later. When I went in, the place was packed! The tables were filled and there were lines galore. The bagel itself was awesome, the perfect chewiness and a great flavor. There was a fair amount of salmon and not too much cream cheese. One of the better sammie's I've had of this kind. I will be going back AND ordering ahead. read more

Grabbed a breakfast bagel the other day. Nicos is a nice place to go and grab a bagel or a speciality drink. It's has plenty of seating and good service. The breakfast bagel was fresh and flavorful. The sausage, egg and bacon were all cooked on the grill and not precooked and heated in a microwave. read more

These are probably the best bagels in Maryland! As someone who is particular about their bagels, Nico's does it right! These are truly New York-style bagels! They have a great flavor and the right consistency! I highly recommend the Blueberry Crunch Bagel. It was so fresh and tasted like REAL blueberries. I accompanied this with blueberry schmear, and you can see the chunks of fresh blueberries in it! I also decided to try the Sweetheart Mocha Coffee and it was just as impressive! It tasted like real strawberries and chocolate, not the artificial stuff. It was like someone took chocolate-covered strawberries, liquefied them, and put them in my coffee without all the pulp. This was my first time here, and I can't wait to come back and try some of their other things! I got an Everything Bagel and a Bialy to go, and I'm looking forward to it! read more
Omg! Nico's is finally open! Make sure you swing by this weekend for their grand opening and try one of their fruity pebbles, oreo, or french toast bagels! I love their philosophy of providing their guests a safe space to share a smile, and celebrate life through good vibes and positive energy through our mission of inspiring others by prioritizing mental health. I'm so excited to try some of their brunch favorites such as their signature New York bagelwitches. read more
