Been coming here for years. Bagels are great and service has improved tremendously over the years. The reason for my post? I was in search for a great blueberry muffin. And I found it. BEST EVER. But please, when asked for a "tiny bit of cream cheese" it should be a "tiny bit" like a thin layer. :) read more

There is a relatively new gentleman here with a beard. He has saved this place in my opinion, I don't know who he is but if he isn't the owner then give him a raise! He is friendly, fast and my order is always correct and delciious now, the man is a prince! read more

Prices seem to be changing month by month, and now even a basic, plain cream cheese bagel--nothing special--has gone from $3 to around $5. 50% increase...excuse me?! You can literally go next door to the market and buy an entire bag of bagels for that price. A lot of people are complaining about this too. The price hike doesn't match the quality or product provided. Stay away until they rethink their approach. read more

Lox bagels don't include cream cheese apparently you have to specifically request it. Who eats Lox bagels without cream cheese? That's like eating cereal and having to request for milk. At the very least I would wish the guy upfront asked if I wanted cream cheese in my bagel had I known it doesn't come with it. read more

This bagel store has the designation of having the best pumpernickel rye bagels in the immediate area, I have tried about a dozen other spots around in the last few months and nobody comes close, I realize my previous review comes from a quantity issue but as I now have discovered they make very good bagels compared to many others and provide a nice selection of sandwiches, I also like how there seems to be a tight managing presence behind the counter , keep it up ! read more

I give this store aces! I go there's every year, after the Ridgewood Run, and while jam packed, the service is friendly and welcoming! I decided to try ordering online with delivery to the local hospital and I was not disappointed. I ordered local items whose names differed from what was on the menu and it was delivered to perfection! Very good store; you will not be Disappointed. read more

Coming here for a few years and great bagels. Staff is always kind and very decent prices

It used to be my morning spot for a bacon egg and cheese on a roll. Hasn't been there since before COVID but I recently when and ordered my usual bacon egg and cheese on a roll. $7.50!!! The bacon was minimal so I was really upset. Of the sandwich was good and cheesy then whatever but I was disappointed on an expensive egg sandwich. Service was fast and the place is clean. read more

ALL the sandwiches we ordered (2 Reuben & a egg with Ham) literally had barely any meat in them. They placed a tiny (minuscule) amount of meat in the middle of the bread. They were all bread and still hungry after a pastrami Ruben. Will NEVER order from this place again. TERRIBLE! read more

Ordered a Roastbeef on a long roll, lettuce, tomato, S&P, Mayo = $9.50 Noticed sign there was a 4% charge for debit or credit card SMH... OK... opened the sandwich and if there were two slices of roastbeef in the roll I'd be surprised. I will never go there again. I felt ripped off, taken advantage of and cheated. I didn't expect a huge sandwich but I literally couldn't even taste the meat it was basically a mayo, lettuce and tomato sandwich. I don't care how nice they are or how much the smile.... oh and they were charging all the kids $4 for each bit of candy they were buying.... WTH????? They are overcharging and underproviding. read more

Let me start by saying, the food is decent at this restaurant. The problem is the service. I have placed a few pick up orders through Uber Eats and each time they have told me that I never placed an order. It isn't until I show them my proof of receipt that they either find my order or have to make my order on the spot and I have to wait for an additional 10-15 minutes. They are always extremely rude, and even have a sign that says "prices are subject to change without notice based on customer's behavior". The problem is not the customer it's the management and the staff. There are plenty of other bagel shops in the area with great customer service and this place is definitely not one of them. I would not recommend this establishment to anyone. read more

Ridgewood Bagel's continued support for Ho-Ho-Kus School is truly commendable. Their generosity not only benefits the students but also contributes to the recognition of our hardworking staff. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Ridgewood Bagel for their ongoing commitment to education and community. Thank you for the delicious breakfast for Staff Appreciation! read more

3 stars is it. It is average. Nothing special. If you want a bagel and this place is close your good to go. Parking is tough for the best bagel spots in Ridgewood. This place plenty of parking. read more

I went here because it's on my way to work and I was seriously craving some sausage egg and cheese on a bagel. Unfortunately for me this was convenient so I made a pit stop. The service is sort of harsh- they weren't very friendly. Plus the place is expensive for sub par sandwiches. My plain bagel was basically stale and hard as a rock- I don't know how I didn't chip a tooth. The filling side was minimal- the cheese wasn't even melted. The only saving grace was that it was that messy. I wouldn't come back after spending almost 6 dollars on this "breakfast" I could've went to quick check and received something I actually enjoyed. read more

This place is consistently excellent. Raj and his staff are quick and friendly. Nothing but good coffee and great food. Darren

Breakfast in bed! So easy so delicious! My Guilty Pleasure Sunday mornings! Nom nom nom!!

We spent so much money and our sandwiches barely had anything on them. The egg salad tasted strange and barely seasoned. Everything is overpriced for what we got. Disappointed read more

Bacon cream cheese and tomato on an egg bagel this morning was amazing. Great bagels also!

This place is busy! Even on a rainy day. For me, I feel like this place is hit or miss. I've ordered from them multiple times, 3out of 5 times I've ordered, my bagel were burnt. When I clearly asked them "lightly toasted". Advantages: quick service You may call ahead for your order too. read more

I'd like to rate them higher, but there are a couple of things that are preventing me from doing so. I would rate them higher because they take your order very quickly, sometimes seconds of walking in the door there is someone ready to write your order down. I'm giving them a lower rating because sometimes you need a minute! Even if you step off the line and look up at the menu, someone else from behind the counter will start calling to you, asking if you're being helped, and you have to keep repeating that you need a minute. Sometimes I look at their menu online before I go into the store so that I can recite my order. I would rate them higher because the food is usually what I expect it to be. I'm giving them a lower rating because I've had my take-out breakfast omelette in a container with someone else's name and food item scratched out on top (I'll post the photograph). I would rate them higher because they have a "text your order" service. I'm giving them a lower rating because I'm actually afraid to use this service. I'm concerned that my order will not go through, will not be prepared accurately, and I don't want to get into an argument with anyone behind the counter over it. I've seen very minor disagreements between someone at the register and customers, and I do not want to be in that situation. Overall, I still suggest this place when I'm going to pick up a quick breakfast on my way out of town, but I go when I know exactly what I want, and I'm not in too much of a rush to wait in the store rather than text ahead. read more

Barely any egg or bacon on my BECs I ordered. The cheese was barely melted and portions were terrible. Will not risk repeating this experience. Stay away! read more

Worst Bagel store everrrrrr. Do NOT go here. They screw up EVERY order. 30 people behind the counter try to take your order, then you give it to one of them AND they write it down..... And alwaysssss screw it up. Always. Then while you wait for the completely incorrect order, 30 more of them want to take your order..... this place sucks. read more

I just saw the MANAGER maybe even the OWNER run after and try to PHYSICALLY ATTACK another customer. I was in the store, and the customer was calmly paying for his order. The manager talked, very rudely at him and said he didn't have croissants so he put it on a roll. The customer said, ok well I ordered it on a croissant I don't want it on a roll. The manager got visibly upset, and then charged the gentleman for the rest of his order. The customer said very politely "last time I am coming here" and the manager LOST it, chased him out of the store screaming "neva coming heya, neva coming heya again get out! The customer got in his car and was about to leave and the manager ran out after him again, screaming at him and telling him to get out of his car. He kept pointing to the sidewalk telling the customer to fight him I believe. So the customer finally got out of his car and pushed the sign over. I felt like cheering for him. Then the manager started taking pictures of his car like a teenager. There was no damage to the sign. I was hoping the customer would have done more. This guy that works here has countless times, harassed customers. I heard he does bugger sugar in the back which explains things. Everyone I speak to in town says the same thing. Oh also, the customer worked for the police department. He yelled this to the owner as he was trying to accost him. And he did have a PD thing on his plate. I hope this gets reported. I am not coming back here again And I am advising my customers as well . My company orders from here a lot. No more, this was plain disgusting. Dear Manager of Hot Bagels, in a time when we are all supposed to be supporting each other, your actions are despicable. I heard from friends that you have been selling materials such as gloves and masks. Really horrible. And to act as you did to a customer who was completely calm and had a legit reason to be upset as you messed up a very simple order. you CHASE him out of the store? you really need to take a look at your life. The sad thing is the food here is not bad. Most days I would give it a 4 star. The rest of the staff is amazing as well. The woman and the younger girl are so nice. this guy ruins the entire store. I wish we could give .5 star but I'll have to settle for a 1. Horrible, I hope that customer presses charges because you had no right to charge at him out of the store. Then I heard after it all as I was paying, the manager said "I'll find out who he is. I'll find out who he is" as if he was going to go after him. The guy had kids in the back seat. He has kids and you are threatening to find him? Horrible. read more

The staff is friendly to the white folk, not to anyone else. They have sour faces as well. Also, feels like I get older bagels. When I go in early, the bagels aren't warm at all. Need to find another bagel place. read more

Now that Bageliscious has closed this place about has the best bagels around. I enjoy their rainbow and their egg bagels, the best. I also enjoy their snack and drink selection. I would recommend this place to a friend who wanted to try a real new jersey bagel! read more

Nice bagel store! Very clean- outdoor seating- ample parking- friendly staff. They also hVe a lot of baked treats and they specialize in holiday/party bagels in shapes and colors. Coffee is so/so. I didn't like it and wouldn't order the hot coffee again but I'm pretty particular about coffee. They also have a deli selection for lunch. I've ordered bagels for the kids soccer team here before, they usually have a lot of bagels which is great if you come in needing a few dozen. You can also text your order in to save time- I have not tried that here before but have done so in other places. There is no credit card minimum which is nice and they offer local delivery. They have lunch specials for kids in school and they offer gluten free bagels (can't speak to how good/horrible that might be as I don't eat gluten free bagels!) Overall a great spot! read more

Disappointing to say the least... Soggy hash brown, meat that had a gray coating/color, toast half jellied; Overpriced to give ya that final kick in the *** read more

These guys are the best. I either pickup breakfast on my way to work or sit down and eat there - virtually every day. They always get my order right (can't say that for a thousand other bagel and deli places around) and deliver it to me quickly and a smile. Scrambled eggs are prepared the way French chefs are trained to prepare eggs - soft, fluffy, and never with a hint of burning. Raj, the owner, is so personable, and his staff learn how to treat customers just from watching him. Ridgewood Hot Bagels is the BEST! read more

Extremely rude service. They never charge you the same amount for items. They often get your order wrong, and if you point it out they are rude. This business is just not about our community. read more

Solid bagels, good wraps but the reason I'm giving it an extra star is that they have vegan cream cheese. That's a big draw

Excellent food excellent service..the best Breakfast Lunch spot in the village hands down

Despite the corona virus and the impact on everyone including local businesses and restaurants Raj and his staff continue to adapt and provide great service like curbside delivery and delivery to homes. read more

I LOVE this place. We used to go by every single weekend. The bagels are perfectly crunchy on the outside and doughy on the inside. Am a big fan of the whole wheat everything, marble rye, and my partner is all about the French toast bagel (which looks like it's an egg based bagel with a French toast flavor treatment). They make lots of cute bagels for the kids. Sandwiches are great. They use boars head meats. Love the scallion cream cheese. Come back for the coffee- LOVE the hot hazelnut. It has a nutty, smooth finish. They also have alternative sweetness like truvia, which is nice to see. Prices can seem a little high when you get sandwiches made, but understandable as they use high quality products. Whenever I visit friends/family out of the area- they always request we bring these with us! read more

This place is chaotic and just plain disappointing. The second you walk in they jump down your throat and rush to get your orders only to get it wrong even something as simple as an iced black coffee. The bagels are stale; the sandwiches are skimpy and melted cheese is clearly not a priority. Ive been here multiple times; tried a few things off the me u and it's always a waste of money. The only reason why this place is still thriving is because of it's location. Consider going someplace else if you don't want to be left disappointed. read more

First bagel store that delivers! It gets very busy in here! They have great variety on their menu, and they have flagells! A lot of places no longer serve flagella because they are so think workers constantly cut themselves! Their bagels are really good, like the actual bagel, and let me tell you, if it ain't middle eastern, chances are that bagel is missing something but not here! If you have a request and they can do it, then they will. Great spot. read more

Raj and his team are great. They always greet you with a smile and make great bagels and sandwiches. I've been going there once per week on average for several years. You can't go wrong with Ridgewood Hot Baglels! read more

When you walk into Ridgewood Hot Bagels, it feels more like a deli than a bagel joint. Right off the bat there is someone rushing you for your order. How about you allow me to decide what I want first, before giving me anxiety and rush me. That's a big pet peeve of mine and don't enjoy it. I have been to this place a few times and have found it to be okay.The bagels always taste like they have been sitting for awhile. Their taylor ham, egg, and cheese is paltry compared to most other places I have frequented. For five dollars, they could make a better breakfast sandwich. Their basic bagels with butter or cream cheese are non-exciting, too. After having the sandwich I had at my last visit, I will not be a customer any more. There are much better places around the area to spend your hard earned money. read more
