    Tompkins Square Bagel is schmear heaven! They have all kinds and so many different varieties. What drew me here was their honey fig schmear! They gave samples of their schmears which were also delicious but the honey fig was hands down the best. I got this with an everything bagel and it was amazing. The bagels itself were nothing special but they were still pretty good. They do put a lot of schmear, which i did not mind, but it got messy. My husband got a breakfast sandwich that was good but again, the schmear options here were the star players for me. There was a small line that moved pretty quickly but it's confusing to find the line since there's quite a bit of people standing around the entrance waiting for their order. Would recommend if you love schmear and are looking for a good combo!

    Everything bagel with tofu scallion spread

    Probably one of my favorite bagels in NYC because they're so chewy and soft and just the right amount to crunch. I didn't get to eat it this time fresh but I did stop by to get some to go to bring home with me in my flight and they basically gave me 2x the bagels I ordered because they wouid have gone to waste anyways. I appreciate the gesture so much! I wish I could have taken some of their tofu scallion cream cheese with me but I know that wouldn't last as good. Thank you to the staff who made my pick up so enjoyable and thank you for the extra goodies!

    Bagels were good, but what sets this place apart is the unique cream cheese, and that they put the exact right amount on the bagel, egg and cream cheese sandwich. The ordering process is old school paper tickets, but it is actually efficient.

    Large assortment of delicious bagels and so many homemade cream cheese choices make this a favorite bagel store. Friendly customer service and very well run. Long lines move quickly. Store is very clean and offers breakfast and lunch sandwiches that look fantastic. French Toast bagel was my favorite and I definitely recommend if you're on the hunt for great bagels do stop in.

    Stopped by Tompkins Square Bagels and there was a ~20-minute wait in line. Pastrami lox + cream cheese bagel: ~$23 -- chewy, filling, and excellent The shop is busy, but we were able to snag a standing table outside. Definitely worth the wait if you're craving a classic, hearty bagel.

    The menu had a ton of great options, which made it easy to find something interesting. We ordered three bagels, but the wait was frustrating. It took about 30 minutes to get our order, and I had to ask the staff twice if it was still coming while people who ordered after us were already getting their food. They also forgot to toast my bagel. I ordered the bacon sriracha schmear, which sounded better than it tasted. It was fine, but it lacked flavor and didn't really stand out. Overall, it was good, but not great. For New York City, I'd put it solidly below average.

    Caramel iced latte & lox cream cheese everything bagel

    It was filling but for about $20 & with tip $22 that's a bit much. I'm going to assume because of the location ? Other than that it was delicious. -Hi Chris, yes it is.... Yelp doesn't let me reply back to a business owner so I had to update/edit the review in order to respond back to you. Thank you for reaching out.

    The Garret Jones on a whole wheat everything bagel (chicken sausage, egg white, onions, spinach)

    I stopped here on a Tuesday morning around 11am. It was busy, but not packed. I ordered the Garret Jones, which had egg white, chicken sausage, onion, and spinach, on a toasted whole wheat everything bagel. My order came out quickly. It was good, although I would probably try a different sandwich next time. The bagels are really fluffy and flavorful: a dream NYC bagel! There is limited bar seating by the window and a few long high top tables with stools. I wouldn't really sit and linger here, but if you need to stop and eat your food, it gets the job done. The music was all late '00s and early '10s- quite an ambiance!

    Me and my boyfriend came here for a quick bite to eat and we both really enjoyed our salt bagel and bagel sandwich. I really wish we picked out a different sandwich option though because we got the sirloin egg and cheese and the sirloin really was not great, just had zero flavor. Otherwise this place was great and I would love to come back and try out some different menu items!

    Solidddd nyc bagel spot!! Their cream cheeses are superior. I LOVE sun-dried tomato cc and the way they make theirs is so perfect and well mixed. Other places will have huge chunks of tomato in it but theirs is so finely chopped and incorporated. They accidentally gave me scallion but they corrected it. We're all human everyone! Let's be nice AND realistic in the reviews guys !!! They're booming and busy but their quality never fails. I love their bagels so much!

    Tompkins Square Bagels at any location is now my favorite bagel shop. It was before I got sick and had emergency surgery that I picked up an Everything Bagel to take home. Today my daughter had half for lunch and I had a very baby bite. I'm posting pictures of the other Tompkins Square Bagels I've enjoyed this year. I hope my surgeon is right because he said I'd be able to eat my favorite bagel again someday. In the meantime please visit Tompkins Square Bagels especially my home location on the Upper East Side!!

    At nearly $12, the bagel with lox spread, onions, and capers felt overpriced given the portion size. Compared to other New York bagel shops--such as Tal Bagels, where you receive a noticeably more generous amount of cream cheese for less--the spread here was applied very sparingly. As someone accustomed to New York bagels being generously layered with cream cheese, this was disappointing. Additionally, the customer service felt quite impersonal. The cashier simply collected the ticket without any greeting or interaction, which was surprising. A brief acknowledgment or friendly exchange can make a meaningful difference in the overall experience, and in this case, the lack of engagement detracted from what could have been a more welcoming visit.

    This place is so hype and I can get it but it just wasn't the best tasting nor was it a great experience ordering just because there are so many people. I will admit that their operation is impressive in terms of efficiency. Food: Blueberry bagel with blueberry spread: very solid bagel and delicious spread Murray the cop with bacon: fantastic sandwich but expensive. Another patron recommended adding bacon which definitely made it better. Strongly recommend this if you're looking for something hearty. Everything bagel with jalapeño cheese spread: pretty disappointing with minimal jalapeño taste. Tastes like just plain cream cheese with cheese Blueberry bagel with cookie dough spread: this was also pretty disappointing. It just seemed overly sweet and didn't taste like cookie dough. Although we were disappointed by some of the choices, the quality of the food is still good, so I would just make different choices next time! Probably not worth all of the hype but still worth a visit. I would strongly recommend visiting in off hours, as we only had to wait 20 min.

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.

For it being our first time, we were a little confused with the ordering process, and they were so busy that it took a while to be acknowledged. There were kiosks to place the order, but we couldn't find a place to request special requirements, so we had to figure out how we could order at the register amongst the slew of other customers. Our order for 2 bacon egg and cheeses were called with a biscoff iced latte and we were excited at first. But when we opened the sandwiches our bacon was just 3, maybe 4 fatty pieces when we specifically asked for crispy bacon. My husband settled for his, but I requested a reorder where they corrected the bacon issue, and even put more slices. Besides that snafu, I was excited for my latte, but was also underwhelmed by the taste. I assumed since it was a biscoff cookie latte (which I love) that it would be sweeter... The establishment was nice, and there were so many selections, so we would give it another try before writing it off completely.

The service was very friendly, the food was even more so.

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. It's within a great walking distance and easily visible / accessible. Love, love, love!! I'm not from NYC, I was visiting so I will be missing this place whole heartedly - until next time!
