I was immediately greeted with a smile and waited a short while before making it to the counter. Claudio was excellent! My first question was "do you have turkey bacon?" Claudio answered absolutely they have turkey bacon turkey sausage and of course deli turkey. I ordered a turkey BLT with a chamomile tea with honey. He took my order then walked to the register to ring me up. He then informed me my food would be bought out to my seat. Few minutes later, my food arrived after a quick seat at the window seat to people watch. The sandwich was delicious! I ordered the cucumber side salad which was refreshing and I enjoyed the tea/honey ratio. Im sorry for those who had anything other than an amazing experience as I did. read more

Have ordered breakfast sandwiches from Strathmore on four different occasions and despite what other reviews have stated I've been satisfied with both the food and service. Granted each time the store was packed but I was able to place a phone order with an estimated pickup time. The sandwiches and omelets were cooked as requested and were well portioned. Prices are competitive with other restaurants although all food retail pricing has dramatically increased over the past few months. Overall a good bagel store worth visiting offering a wide variety of breakfast and lunch options with ample table seating and parking. read more

Ordered a pound of whitefish salad today and price on blackboard was 22.50 lb was charged 24.00 lb. When I brought it to the cashiers attention she went to check and came back and said that's what it is. Beware False pricing in this place!! read more

Less than 1 star on service in person and on phone and I'm sad to say it's usually the woman as the men are very nice and polite. The women act angry all the as if they are pissed to be there and that includes the manager most of all so I guess the other women take her lead. On November 23, 2025 at 12:15 PM Strathmore bagel picks up the phone says nothing and hangs up on you happen four times not a mistake November 23, 2025 at 12:30PM Call back again to ask a price on a sandwich couldn't give me the answer and put you on hold because they said they were too busy to give me the answer and never come back. And it was the easiest sandwich in the world as it's on their menu hanging on the board, but unfortunately not being able to find it on their website. read more

Good food and fair prices but the service is honestly too slow (non-existent?) to recommend or ever go back. We live so close that we've been several times. It's usually pretty bad but this last time was unbearable so we left after 25 minutes without even being seen! read more

Great spot for a quick bagel at okay prices. Came here a few times for to-go breakfasts. Will definitely come back in the future if I'm nearby and need a quick breakfast. A solid go-to place that businesses get bagels for morning meetings. Service was great with good recommendations. Speedy with service. Got their bacon and egg bagels with lox and scallio. cream cheese. Had a deal where you get a drink, pickle, and side salad (got the mac side salad) for ~$13. Bagel was solid, good taste and a decent amount of cream cheese as well as lox. Mac salad and side ice tea were pretty good as well! read more

Do not go here!!!! This place sucks!!! Went here every weekend for 7 years. Always called in my order for pick up. Now they don't accept calls so have to order online. Doesn't tell you when the order will be ready until after you pay. Last time was over an hour for egg sandwiches and I had somewhere to be. Can only contact by email or phone, but they don't accept phone calls so I tried to email to cancel. After no response I had to go to the store to cancel my order and got an attitude. Was told I had to go online to cancel, which is not an option, so staff doesn't know the rules. Never going again. They lost a good customer and don't seem to care. There are a million other mediocre bagel places around. I'll try those instead! read more

I stopped by this bagel shop despite having bad reviews I thought to myself how bad could it be? I have a gluten allergy and it's hard to find gluten free options anywhere but their website listed "gluten free options" so I gave it a try. I ordered the "boone" on a gluten free wrap and a gluten free cinnamon raisin bagel. OMG BOTH WERE SOOO GOOD! This probably has to be the best bagel I've ever tried. The wrap was also very good. I left with a happy tummy :) very good service everyone was smiling and they have a very nice playlist going on. Definitely worth a try. Everyone else's reviews were bogus. read more

Slowest service you'll see in your life. No one works the counter and not enough employees to ever handle the volume of guests

Rude staff. They seem miserable to be working...perhaps looking for other employment may be best for all. Bagels are fine if you don't mind waiting a long, long time. Strathmore bagel location are usually awesome. This franchise location is not up to par. read more

Not a good bagel shop. It's usually a 20 minute wait for a bagel. The bagels taste like frozen bagels. The staff is very slow.. would definitely not recommend. read more

Go there sometimes for Bagels or Egg Sandwiches. Usually a long wait but those two items are ok enough. Saw the "Fresh" oatmeal sign for a while and asked once if it were fresh or a packet. They said fresh in a pot. Went today and asked for the "Fresh" oatmeal with toppings. After seeing the person going back and forth to the microwave I mentioned I thought it was fresh. Her reply was "It is fresh just not hot" I knew where this was going. I made no other fuss, it was only $4.00 It was served in a large coffee cup which made it difficult to mix in the stale Granola, it still wasn't hot, I guess the microwave is on the same level as the oatmeal pot. Bottom line: It's not fresh, the toppings are stale and they're version of Fresh may not mean what you think it does. Gave it 2 stars as the bagels aren't that bad although you wait a long time for service. read more

Sandwiches under 10 bucks with a salad , pickle and small drink ., great serivce .

Staff is so rude doesn't matter if you call ahead or order in store they are just rude, there's this one older lady who's a sweet heart the younger ones act like your the problem server you with an attitude it's like they're mad they're doing their job. read more

They need a better toaster, it only toasts one side so it's not really toasted. I have said "well done" every time and it hasn't happened. Toasted means crunchy. Super long lines, because they process slowly so be prepared to wait. They need an express line for easy stuff like bagels and coffee as most people order elaborate stuff. Tasty though, good fresh bagels. Lite veggie cream cheese is good too. Better than Bagel Cafe down the road too. But not nearly as good as Bagel Express on 25A. They are kings! read more

The girl who was taking my order couldn't stop talking to the other employees there whole time she was helping me. I felt like I was interrupting as I have my order. She messed up the whole order and gave me a dripping and wet and sticky cup off coffee in the end (it was a simple order, one bagel with cheese and a coffee). The other person at the register gave my order (one bagel) to another customer and was confused when she didn't take it. Couldn't make it up if I tried. Not coming back. read more

I end up stopping in here on every trip back to NY, not so much because I like them, but the fact that I always stay with my sister who lives around the corner. Have never had a sandwich here just the bagels. They taste good, but certainly not in my top 10. I also find them to be quite expensive. A bottle of soda and two bagels, one with butter, one with creme cheese cost me six and change. No matter how busy it is, service is sloooooooooow. Plenty of seating in the front of the store. Grab a table or sit at the counter in the front window. If I'm going anywhere but the mall, I pass them by and go elsewhere. read more

I was going to start out by saying this place is a hidden gem, but in all reality this is my first time walking past it. When it comes to bagel shops I'm very picky about where I purchase my bagels from and not to mention they must have great bacon. Unfortunately, I stop eating meat. So I was actually going in this bagel shop to try some good bread only. When you walk in, there are tables and chair to dine in. It wasn't much of a line when I walked in but by the time I walked out that lines was by the door. I ordered a whole wheat bagel with light butter, my daughter ordered a mini plain bagel with grape jelly, and my husband order a everything bagel with 3 egg whites, cheese, ketchup and pepper and his order came with home fries and a coffee. My bagel was toasted to perfection, more butter then I expected but it was wonderful. My daughter gave my the thumbs up while she was eating her bagel and stated " this bagel is yummy in my tummy" so I'm assuming she enjoyed it, and my husband was very impressed with everything. Moral of the review is that we definitely would come here back again. The staff was very nice. And the prices was great read more

Everytime i order from here ... even just being a bagel or a dozen and an egg platter i wait no less than an hour. I do door dash pick up and it still takes them over an hour. The staff is rude. Extremely unprofessional. They receive so much local business and still continue to conduct themselves unprofessional. I have continued to try and give them chances and they constantly disappoint. I will be going out of my way to any other bagel place rather than waste my time and money on this place. read more

Best bagels around! The flagels are also very, very good. To boot, service is great and Fred always has a kind word!

One of my favorite delis on long island. amazing family business with such kind employees! food is beyond good and can save your life after a hangover. 10/10 would recommend!!!! read more

Very aggravating . Waited 20 minutes for service while standing at the counter. One other customer in front of us. Staff extremely rude and said that there was only 3 of them working,. Seems to me, that since there were 3 of them, and only two of us on line, something was wrong with how they were functioning. Also staff needs to be educated in rudeness and how to relate to customers. We never did eat there and never expect to return . Pizza place in that shopping center was excellent read more

IF your into mayonnaise salad, this is the place for you. The chicken salad yesterday was so buried in the stuff, it's hard to find the chicken. AND then make sure you get the macaroni doing the back stroke in all the mayo. The taste in both salads is similar, so I guess they make a BIG bowl of seasoned mayo and then add the ingredients needed to call it a salad. The bagels are good, they need a lighter hand on anything with mayo in it. The service was great.......but you can't take the staff home. read more

No thanks. Went there Saturday and asked for a toasted bagel with butter. Got home and had a cold bagel in my bag - no butter and not toasted. Decided to try them again today. Ordered eggs and home fries. Got home and there was a long black hair strung across my food, so I had to throw the entire thing out. Totally unappetizing... read more

Let me be the first. They made my egg sandwich but can't follow instructions: 2 scrambled eggs on whole wheat toast with salt and ketchup doesn't equate to 2 eggs scrambled with no salt and no ketchup on soggy limp french toast bread. I'm allergic to eggs with no salt and no ketchup on soggy limp french toast bread!!!! Good thing tea was there before my throat closed up. Think about it, it could have been you allergic to the walnuts muffin when you asked for almond. But how can it be you ask? Toast is not hard to make. Let me tell you yelpers, the order came out in less than 2 minutes. There should be no reason toast is soggy and limp from counter to table. It's bad compared to other bagel places I've been to. Don't take for granted that a bagel store is just another bagel store. Choose wisely or you've chosen death. Service was meh! Can't get a smile out even if you tickled the person (sounds better said in Cantonese). Too Harsh? Too Dramatic? Perhaps. Go into anaphylactic shock because a server can't take your order properly? Yes. Never again. read more

Had a western omelette with home fries and a everything bagel platter . Platter comes with a small orange juice, coffee or tea. Food was Tasty! Portion ok. Good when you're in a rush for breakfast.

Been here several times and the service is slow and the staff has an attitude. I understand people have bad days but I have experienced the same bad service on multiple occasions. I went in to get half a pound of salad today and the girl screamed across the store .. we are closed. It was 3:02pm. It would have taken her two minutes to complete my order. And, if the store is closed, then lock the door. The time I was there prior I ordered my breakfast and waited and waited, I finally see the cook in the back put my order up and several girls just kept walking past it. I'm standing there and now my food is getting cold. I finally asked the next girl that passed if she could hand me my food and I got the death stare. Avoid this place unless desperate. Food isn't that good anyway. read more

The standard bagel store. The place is spotless. Food is not bad. Cheese and egg sandwiches are ok. Not quite sure if they serve butter or margarine. I think it might be the latter. Coffee is okay. I think it's a nice place to have in the neighborhood. Pretty middle-of-the-road bagel store. read more

What really impresses me about this place is how long it's existed, considering that surrounding businesses have regularly failed (even next door). Time and time again people rave about the bagels here, and there's truth to their claims. The bagels are freshly made (I usually snag an egg bagel so that's important), and the sandwiches are filling with reasonable prices. My only issue is that the seating area can get cramped occasionally, but the crowd itself tends to be seniors anyway so they're not disruptive. All in all, a great breakfast spot that's existed for what feels like forever. read more

I was traveling on business and found this bagel shop for some much needed breakfast. The reviews on Yelp were not very enthusiastic here, but I drove by and it looked like a well-kept business so I gave it a shot. I'm very glad that I did. I ordered a bacon, egg and cheese on a French toast bagel special that came with home fries and a small coffee. Bacon egg and cheese on French toast bagel: Very good. Freshly cooked eggs, nice crispy bacon, gooey cheese and a really good bagel. Not a hard crust bagel and not too sweet which can be a problem with the French toast bagel variety. I was in the mood...don't judge me! Home fries: They were good, tasty and hot. Very moist and fresh. Not crispy on any edges, but a very substantial portion that I couldn't finish. I would split that portion with my wife and we'd be content. Location: In a strip mall with a Walbaum's a few doors down. Nice big, clean and well lit business. The owner here cares about his business and it shows. Many bagel varieties and super nice people working there. I'll definitely repeat when in the area next time for breakfast. Damage was around $5.50 and they take credit happily. As a business traveler that is 99% flying solo it is always a pain to see credit card minimums when ordering a single meal. read more

I have to say I used to love the breakfast here. Today I placed an order for 2 egg sandwiches both with 3 egg whites and bacon, with home fries which they come with. Does this look like egg sandwiches?? And to boot they charged me extra for extra egg white !! I unfortunately noticed this when I got home and I had no time to go back. I think that after reading all the reviews this place has really gone down hill. The floors are sticky and it looks very dirty. read more

Great selection , good customer service, bagels were very good. The only gripe I had was that on my BEC (bacon egg cheese). They were very cheap with their bacon and cheese. It only had a slice of cheese and 2 pieces of bacon. I've had other stuff here and it was all good. read more

My daughter loves the bagels at this place . I would give it five stars but they are painfully slow. If you have more than two people in line, your in for a long long wait. If you go just before lunch time it seems only one employee is working the walk in crowd, everyone else is taking care of the phone orders. It seems that the phone order take priority over the walk ins, no matter how long the line is. To be fair they make a great ny bagel read more

Filthy is the best word to describe this place. It's not just the entire store that is repulsive, it's the the FLY TRAPS hanging above the counter where they butter your bagels. I'm pretty sure this is a health code violation. I left - made me nauseous. read more
