I got us whole wheat everything bagel with a fried egg, chipotle Gouda, and turkey sausage with chipotle mayo with a hash brown on the side. And when I opened the bagel open I could see the cheese from both ends of the bagel melting apart, I was in heaven. It tasted so good. And the best part was that my bagel didn't fall apart (like some places). Everything was so delicious. I was left very happy and very pleased with this place. I will be back.

I ordered a toasted gluten free bagel with cream cheese and what I got was cold and pale. I took a bite and it was disgusting. Many gluten free bread products need to be toasted to be edible which is why I always get them toasted. My receipt said toasted. The bagel was pale and cold. And falling apart. A different bagel store refused to sell their gluten free bagels untoasted. At least they didn't give me food that I couldn't eat. I will not be going back to NYCB&CH anytime soon because that experience left a bad taste in my mouth...literally. But if I do I will make sure to check my bagel before I go.

FOOD: We ordered a bag of 3 bagels-- everything, poppy seed & salt. The bagels were cute, medium sized and served warm/hot. We chose the scallion cream cheese which came in a lil container. Apparently the bagels are not made in the traditional manner, but they were still delicious with great texture and taste. We also ordered the tea (ok) and strawberry lemonade (yum). We enjoyed our bagels on the little countertop area outside. OVERALL: Definitely recommend! A different bagel experience than some other places (as in, those places where you are served bagels topped with cream cheese and other things) but we enjoyed the simplicity of the bagels and controlling the amount of cream cheese.

Great bagel sandwiches (sausage egg & cheese was my favorite!) and their iced coffees were amazing! They serve them in plastic/metal sealed containers so they tend to stay cold longer. I tried 3 different coffees in 3 days and they were all great! Service can be a little slow at times because it gets CROWDED in the mornings, but I won't knock them for that. Also there is only a tiny area to sit but it's NYC so that is typical.

I knew it would be a couple hours before I could eat my sandwich, but I didn't care. I wanted to have a fresh memory of NY bagels. I saw in photos a menu item of Bologna, egg and cheese but when I asked about it, they no longer offer it and it was on an old menu. So I settled for the other BEC, which is Bacon, Egg & Cheese on a double toasted onion bagel. My wife requested a plain bagel with cream cheese and smoked salmon. Even a couple hours after on the plane, the bagels still hit and it was a memorable last bite of a New York Bagel To Sandwich. Worth the try if you are nearby. So many bagel shops in New York area, so it really depends where you are.

A bagel and salmon is something I have to get every single time I'm in NYC (except the last time I…read morewas there, but don't worry about that). It's just so good. Liberty Bagels is one of the more famous places to get one. I opted against the six-year old part of my brain which wanted the kaleidoscope-y rainbow bagel and opted for an everything bagel with nova (which is different from lox - til) and scallion cream cheese. Firstly, the bagel was just great. It's not quite as crispy on the outside as the best I've had, but definitely does enough there. The golden brown color is absolutely there. And the inside is so fluffy and so easy to bite through - yet at the same time keeps the cream cheese at bay and prevents the two from merging. The everything on the everything bagel is not quite as 'everything' as I would want, but it's certainly everything enough. The nova is also fantastic. It's got that slightly fishy taste that lets you know its fresh without overpowering every bite. The salt levels are phenomenal - both from the bagel and the salmon. The portion of it could have been *slightly* bigger, but the taste was really great. I also loved the scallion cream cheese. It was only on one side, which was a little unfortunate, but the amount reached the perfect bagel/salmon/cream-cheese triumvirate of a ratio where everything blends perfectly together. The texture on this was just so creamy. The capers were nice, but some more red onions would've been ideal. For just around $17, this is pretty large - and I think a decent deal for the level of quality you're getting. Overall, this may not be the best bagel I've had, but it remains one of the best bagel sandwich experiences. 9.25/10

I was absolutely blown away with the amount of fresh, hand-made cream cheese / butter / spread selections - some of the ones that were available when I came were: Brown Sugar Cinnamon Butter, Garlic Parsley Butter, Walnut Raisin Cream Cheese, Strawberry Cream Cheese, Cinnamon Roll Cream Cheese, Olive Cream Cheese, Nutella Chip Cream Cheese, Lemon Poppy Cream Cheese, Jalapeno Cheddar Cream Cheese, Garlic Herb Cream Cheese, Bacon Cheddar, Chili Crisp, Basil Pesto... I mean seriously the options are ENDLESS. Sweet, salty, savory, you name it. I will admit, it's a bit overwhelming because you want to try it all especially because they're all beautifully displayed. Even after you pick the spread, you still have to choose from one of the many different bagel options too so.. that's the hard part - making choices! There is seating available both in and outside.
