I've been going here for about a year now for my morning coffee and occasional bagels/muffins. However, since my husband "discovered" them through searching for a good bagel shop it has become our Sunday morning spot for his bacon, egg and cheese sandwiches. Sometimes we try something different but always go back to the original. Even when it's extremely busy the staff is always friendly and try to be as fast as possible. Enough seats for a quick bite with some of the best coffee shop coffee I've had in a long time. read more

Excellent bagel place. Long Island has a lot a good ones, and their bagels are a little bit better. They make great sandwiches too. Even in the late afternoon, you're getting a bagel you'd swear was just recently made. Prices are on par with everywhere else around. 4.5 stars. read more

This very busy (railroad station) bagel shop is a must!. The owner is second generation from a Brooklyn bakery family. These guys still make all their delicious baked goods in house. In addition to the best sandwich ever you must try the apple turnover. I recommend taking your goodies, sitting at one of the communal tables and chatting up a local while the world heads off to work. It's not fancy but friendly in spades. read more

Awesome place. We got the egg sandwich with bacon and cheese, which was awesome. Bagels were super high quality, as well. The store itself has a fairly overwhelming menu, and the place is certainly chaotic, so I'd recommend knowing what you order as you walk in. Coffee options are limited (no espresso or anything like that), but maybe that's a good thing given their expertise in bagels. Definitely would recommend! read more

I have never been disappointed when ordering from Railroad Bagel Express! I have gotten bagels here several times and I finally captured a pictured since I wasn't in a rush! Their bagels are delicious, fluffy and a very good size! They have a variety of options when it comes to bagels or breakfast sandwiches, which makes it so difficult to choose because it all just sounds and looks SO good! I love the cute little community that they have, as I was sitting there, I heard so many people who were regulars come in and out which is so awesome to see that! read more

Came here on New Year's Day for a quick bite for the road. It was super busy but I didn't wait too long. They had lots of options on the menu, but I simply just wanted simple breakfast. I ordered 3 breakfast sandwich in total. Two sausage/egg/cheese and 1 bacon/egg/cheese(Swiss). The sandwiches came out pretty fast and the price was very decent for how big the sandwiches was. But there was a downside to this order. When I got home, all three of my sandwiches were bacon/egg/cheese. There was no sausage/egg/cheese. Big disappointment.... read more

Great service, always quick and easy even when busy, and a very generous portions. Recommend this place to even the most avid egg sandwich enthusiasts and regardless if you're a sausage or bacon egg sandwich person, both are amazing. read more

Every bagels was covered with the designated toppings and they stayed on. BUT the kicker.. they the in a corn muffin. I'm not a corn muffin person, but this converted me.

Egg sandwiches are good, and their bagels have a nice texture. Unfortunately that's where the positives end. Their "everything" bagels are about 90% sesame seeds. I've now ordered extra crispy bacon two different times, and each time, the bacon is so underdone that there's still uncooked spots that I have to pick off my bagel and throw away. This last time, I threw away half the bacon they put on the bagel. You'd think when my husband asks them to practically burn it, they'd understand what that means, so I guess they just don't care about getting customers to come back. read more

Outside it looks kinda shabby, but inside the space is huge for a coffee shop. I ordered the cinnamon dolce cold brew, with a round potato knish. I was kind of confused because I didn't know understand why they had square potato knish, and round potato knishes. But looking at them the square one had a traditional fried outside, while the round one was more less traditional. The server said the round one had a bit more potato in it. So I opted for that one. The cold brew was prepared quickly and she didn't charge me extra for asking to make it with almond milk. It came to $3.50 for a small. The round knish was $3.99. And she gave me a warm tasty one. My total came to $8.14 with tax. I saw the giant spinach pinwheel that look like they're made with pastry dough rather than pizza dough and I definatly want to try them next time!
