To start, rosemary salt bagel for the win! Honestly all the bagels were delicious. Cinnamon Raisin, Jalapeño Cheddar, Everything. All of them were really good. We didn't get any of the breakfast sandwiches, but next time we will get them as they sounded so good! read more

The place was amazing, so warm and cozy. It was so comfortable and loved the music playing The owner is amazing, and does amazing things for the community too. Every person that entered and left was pleasant and friendly. I wish I had a local spot like this where I live. If you are on the island, it is a must try. you can tell the food is made with love. So glad I stopped in on my visit. Ps he even came outside to check if I liked it.. read more

Outstanding spot! And the best bagels on the entire East End without a doubt. Stumbled upon Eccentric Bagel finally today and absolutely loved it and Darren the owner. Great local spot, great menu and vibes, and they actually have gluten free as well! Splurged on real bagels though and they were all delicious. Shoutout ! read more

Fresh and warm bagels -- worth the visit! I highly recommend the plain bagels but like that there is a variety of options to choose from. My friend liked the rosemary and salt bagel, too! read more

Awesome spot for breakfast and lunch. Bagels and iced coffees are off the hook good! Delicious. Darren is a doll. Stock up - they freeze well. Funky and fun decor, clean, picnic tables outside and easy parking. read more

A little expensive for bagels/bagel sandwiches but for shelter island, nothing out of the norm. Bagels are well worth it. They have some fun favored bagels (I tried the za'atar) and some unique cream cheese flavors. It can get pretty packed but they are pretty organized and get your order prepped quickly. Glad to have this addition to Shelter Island! read more

I know you've come for the bagels but I'm telling you, try the Reuben sandwich on lightly toasted Rye. It's an incredible sandwich !!! Truly one of the greats !!! Their bagels are also pretty amazing of course and they are stuffed with really interesting fillings and flavors. The one thing I could kvetch about is, they could do better on the amount of cream cheese they shmear on a simple bagel with cream cheese order. It's such a light shmear you'd think they are rationing cream cheese. What's that all about ? Ask for extra. Their bagel chips are pretty fantastic too. The staff are lovely. And with an Israeli flag up in the window and a gay flag flying high outside, the eccentric bagel is on the right side of history and proudly gets my vote !!!! ‍ read more

The staff are accommodating and friendly. The place has a very community local vibe to it which I love. Also, there's lots of different market baubles to look through, which again, I love. The food is good. Lots of fun bagel flavors and sandwiches. Yummy large looking muffins. My bf got the jalapeño cheddar bagel with the hummus and veggies. I got the egg and bacon bagel with avocado on a poppy seed bagel. Both were delicious but I think my bagel was a little hard. read more

I ordered my first chicken pot pie from the owner today and it was amazing!!! Ready next day, and 40 minutes in the oven later it was ready to eat. Best pot pie I've ever had. Highly recommend the chicken pot pie! read more

Absolutely LOVE Eccentric Bagel! The Rosemary & Salt bagels are out of this world--perfectly chewy with just the right balance of flavor. And don't even get me started on the bagel chips... they're completely addictive. The vibe of the place is so fun and cool, with awesome decor that makes you want to hang out all day. Everyone who works there is incredibly friendly and welcoming. I'd take the ferry over any day just to stock up--totally worth the trip every time! read more

To bizarre owner of The Eccentric Bagel who likes to make up stories in her head and put them into Yelp. Your weird inappropriate response is just another GOOD reason to avoid this shop ! First, how would you know who left this review to be able to state you have me on "video" ?Unless Yelp gave you my private information which is ILLEGAL .And Yelp does not have my actual photo either. Second ,as stated in my initial review which was censored I did not purchase food there but my family /friends did. So I saw and tasted the food they purchased and also heard their opinion on it. They like I did not initially notice the flag until after entering.I was actually so unimpressed by bagel sandwiches on offer it was only when I left store and was waiting for their food to come out did I see flag. Third, we had zero interaction with staff except to order and to use bathroom . I SUPPORT workers so I am not about to harass folks just trying to pay their bills or harass them for the poor decisions of a miserable owner. Fourth , my review does not state bathroom is public. It states bathroom is CLEAN! While waiting for my family ,a nice lady hanging outside heard me wondering where could a bathroom be and she volunteered sometimes Bagel shop will allow you to use theirs. We asked a lady at the counter who said we could go to back of shop and use the bathroom which is located right behind the kitchen. A staff person opened the door and allowed us in. Fifth , if some other folks had such a strong negative reaction to your political statement one might think you would reconsider the wisdom of your choice. Anyways seems you are happy to serve mediocre food in a mediocre space and provide a mediocre experience . And then if someone writes you a negative review lie about everything reviewed. F- all around ! Prior review The food is basic NYC bodega /deli level . Line was LONG and not speedy at 10:30 am on a weekend. Bathroom clean. Space up front tiny. My original review was censored by Yelp. Apparently YELP doesn't consider a company creating a hostile insensitive and uncomfortable environment for many of their customers relevant to my food experience. I DO! It's very simple -don't shove your politics of hate against down my and other folks throat . Sometimes a bagel shop should just be a bagel shop. And by sometimes I mean ALL the time . read more

awesome place, yummy food, friendly people! it's sad all the antisemitic people out there. Go there if you want some great food which is all that matters read more

Everything at the Eccentric Bagel has been great. BEC sandwiches (try the jalapeño bagel for a kick), wraps, even the bagel chips are special. And their pot pies (I had the lobster, the priciest option but it easily serves two) are fantastic. Don't miss this unique spot, only a few years old but already a Shelter Island institution! read more

recommended to all. reported negative comments to Yelp. Fresh bagels on Shelter Island--who could ask for more!!

Owner is an angel. Food and coffee 10/10 am definitely returning. High quality energy and food

Excited to have a solid bagel purveyor on Shelter Island. The fixings are dense on the bagels (especially in my favorite, "Everything"...! Tip: Keep your dental floss handy!). The sides like white fish and egg salad are delicious but very pricey. The coffee offerings could be better but it may be the "off season effect". Love the 80's vibe too! read more

This place looks amazing!! Love that they have savory and sweet. Can't wait to eat here when I'm in Queens!!

The food was fresh and served with a smile. I would definitely recommend this restaurant when you want an authentic and delicious bagel!

Amazing bagel place, the recipe they use makes all the bagels taste absolutely delicious. The staff that work there are very polite and patient. It's a small store but the design details make it so unique. On Sundays they sell the Sundried tomato and herb (?) bagels which are my absolute favorite. I hope they can start making them more often. read more

When eccentric bagel opened I was excited but kind of sad to have lost a deli on the island... boy was I wrong! Eccentric bagel has brought it!!! Their number 5 roast beef bagel sandwich is all I've ever wanted. Perfect balance of meat to sauce, fresh vegetables and of course an amazingly fresh delicious bagel. Potato salad also a must! We also picked up great salad. Decor also funky and fresh, makes you just want to smile. 5 stars all around. Can't wait to see what this new company expands on next! read more

I can't say enough good things about The Eccentric Bagel. We had a huge party and not only were they on time with the pick up, the bagels were the best we've ever had. And were true New Yorkers so we know bagels! Also try the chocolate chip cookies!! We will come here time and time again and again every time we're in Shelter Island. The staff could be more friendly too. Amazing bagels, amazing people, what more can you ask for! read more
