It used to be a good bagel. Now it's not worth it. I don't know what they changed, but now it's closer to Dunkin' Donuts or Starbucks, which lacks the handmade quality and chewy bubble distribution of a truly handmade dough. A bit sad because they were a reliable Local NYC Bagel at LGA before taking off. To add to my sad, the electronic kiosk for self-ordering did not have an option to request an iced coffee or even an iced tea without forcing a choice to add milk, and the screen is so big you're typing your personal name or phone number for your order at a size and view everyone in line can see it, which felt like an invasion of privacy. I'm sure this was some investor's brilliant idea to streamline things but it now makes Zaro feel like another corporate entity that lacks uniqueness, attention to detail, and is starting to distance human connection and consideration from the product and experience. read more

Finish baking the bagel. Have had better supermarket bagels. Toasting it is the only edible way. Coffee was not hot and they didn't have a microwave to warm it up. read more

Of course I had to get a dozen bagels to take with me on my recent flight to Florida because where my parent's house is you can't get good bagels. All they have is Publix which can't compare at all. When I saw this Zaro's location in Terminal B it was a no brainer. Bagels were surprisingly fresh and tasty even after the flight and travel time. Friendly and fast counter service. I also grabbed a coffee which was also pretty good. Solid place. read more

If you're looking for quick , fast, service this is the place to go. Fast service is something always needed in the airport and they provide just that. It is a walk up and order establishment and you wait for your name to be called for pickup. I needed a quick pick me up so I opted for a raisin bagel (my favorite), it was a huge , fresh, and toasted to perfection. I love raisin bagels and let me say, you've never had a bagel unless you've had one in New York. read more

A stop at Zaro's has become a tradition for me. Located on the second level of LaGuardia Airport towards gates 40-59. Their service is friendly and efficient and the space is always clean and tidy. The wait time is minimal but can uptick through peak hours. A breakfast sandwich and coffee is always my go to and have yet to be disappointed. read more

Excellent and fast service!! The line at Dunkin was wrapped around the store so I decided to try this spot. Short line and fast service. Prices are a little steep, but it's expected at the airport. Ordered a medium iced vanilla latte and a cinnamon raisin bagel with plain schmear. The vanilla latte was pretty good! Not too sweet but just sweet enough. The bagel, toasted was really good! And they load the schmear on! Definitely a must try in LaGuardia . read more

We were on wait for our flight at La Guardia Airport and stopped for a quick bite, they had a nice selection of bakery items and sandwiches, and muffins.I got a hot Latte a everything Bagel w chives cream cheese, and a Turkey croissant sandwich. The bagel was delicious and my wife also loved the Blueberry Muffin and the sandwich was fresh and delicious, their service fast friendly and pretty fast and worked quickly, even though they were busy .It's a good place to get a quick good tasting bagels N sandwiches, good tasting coffee too. read more

I have always been a fan of zaros family bakery as the sweets especially the black and white cookies and sliced rye bread are my favorite. Took a chance at this zaros at the airport as we all know the airport can be bad for food joints but I was surprised as this one had a good selection of fresh sweets and prices are ok and big bonus the black and white cookie was fresh and the bread was also fresh and warm . Got cuz a turkey and Swiss croissant and blueberry muffin with a large fresh squeezed orange juice and I hope I can fight the temptation . 4 stars ony yelp meter . read more

I have been getting these bagels for years! Always good and super consistent. The scallion cream cheese is top notch and they don't skimp on it! I hate when I get a bagel with only a little dollop. I've had bad airport bagels and this is not that! Prepare for around 7-10 minutes to get your food and if that time goes by remind them your name/order and they'll make it happen fast. read more

I never expect much from airport food, but I was pleasantly surprised by breakfast here. I ordered egg, cheese, and avocado on a croissant with a hash brown. It was delicious. The croissant was small, but perfectly buttery and flaky. They included just the right amount of cheese, though I would've preferred cheddar to American. The egg was nicely fried over hard. The hash brown wasn't the most flavorful, but it was crispy and fresh. I also got a bottled orange juice, which was crazily expensive at $8, but that's airport pricing for you, I guess. read more

I ordered one of the platters and was honestly surprised by how bland everything was. It looked decent, but the food had almost no flavor. It tasted more like something reheated from a frozen or boxed meal than something freshly made in a bakery kitchen. Nothing stood out, and the ingredients didn't taste fresh. For the price and the reputation, I expected a lot more. I can see why this location has mediocre reviews. There are plenty of better places nearby if you're looking for a quality breakfast or lunch. read more

Great place for quick service and quality food. Bagel was just what you'd expect with plenty of cream cheese. Pretzel was chewy and salty. Black coffee tasted great. Grab and go, no seating read more

The food is probably good if they could get an order correct. I have ordered here twice on two separate trips to the airport and neither time gotten what I ordered. The wrong bagel, the wrong cream cheese, and.of the wrong other items on the bagel. I would stay away from this place (and other Zaros if this is an example of what they are like). read more

For an airport bakery, it's not bad. The bagels are fresh and service is quick. I had an afternoon flight and Zaro's made my everything bagel with veggie cream cheese quickly. My ice coffee came out before the bagel. I made my way to the terminal and had time to spare. It's an airport cafe so the vibe is fast paced. They don't have vegan cream cheese for bagels. I hope this will change in the future. Business sales would likely increase. Overall, the food is good and service is quick. Everything is clean and sanitary (from what I could see). I'd visit Zaro's again. read more

July 10, 2024 - I actually had this last year, but I did something so stupid and put it in my bag and left it in the overhead compartment the entire flight back to Toronto. So this time I made sure I had enough time, sat down and ate the entire Bagel!! It's quite expensive but would I get it again, YES! Staff was wonderful and service is always great. read more

In LaGuardia AGAIN. Ordered a grilled chicken ciabatta sandwich, only because they didn't have what I really wanted. The sandwich was just okay. When I'm there again, I'll go back and see if they have what I want next time. Overall, customer service was good. read more

In a nutshell, it's decent airport food that's overpriced. I paid $7-8 for a small, but tasty smoothie, $15 for two slices of average french toast, and $6 for a good bagel (the strawberry cream cheese was less than stellar though, not very flavorful). read more

I had the croissant turkey and hubby had a chicken sandwich. The bread was soggy. Not flakey. Skip this place and get food from another vendor in terminal B food court read more

Ordered an everything bagel with their omelette option and added ham as well as a mango madness smoothie. Total was $22, had a good amount of ham inside and sandwich was made to order. Bagel was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Eggs were not overcooked. Ask for hot sauce. Really good airport food, I was shocked! read more

This is an airport yet the service was dreadfully slow for just the basics like a bagel with a Schmear and nova. Drinks caused a back up to the point where some people abandoned their beverages after paying double-digits for a coffee. I am New Yorker- The same bagel, locks, and cream cheese at Grand Central Station takes about 90 seconds in, then out and cost about five dollars less. Tip: if you really want a bagel, don't get anything on it. Save your $17, the product was just plain inferior read more

If you want bagels with lox with tomato, cream cheese, capers, this is the spot. I love this spot. Every time I visit, I get this item. It always makes my flight amazing. Sometimes the right thing comes at the right time. The service is also quick and efficient. Yes, I recommend it. read more

These guys continue to impress with their sandwiches and baked goods. Yes, $5.99 for a black and white cookie is a bit much, but it's pretty good. The bagels with cream cheese are very reasonably priced and absolutely delicious. The staff here is much friendlier than the Juniors staff across the court! This is an excellent choice for food on the go! read more

Wow really disappointed on my last NYC bagel sandwich, with lox and onions, runs about $ 20 , I don't have it toasted. Bagel was not fresh what a disappointment because I LOVE THIS SANDWICH at LGA, shame on the zaros. read more

Is $4.75+tax a lot for a bagel with cream cheese? Of course. But a NY bagel is delicious, quick, unfussy and simple, and easily transportable. That is what I'm often looking for when heading through an airport terminal to my gate. Service was friendly and fast, and while nearly $10 for coffee and a bagel may be overpriced, good luck finding a satisfying breakfast in an airport for less money. read more

I stopped by here to pick up a sandwich before my flight. Zaro's is mostly known for their black and white cookies. I usually go there for a bagel with cream cheese and coffee. They are a big name in the city so I expected to see them in the airport. In terminal 2 they are located near the other local restaurants. The prices here however are much more than in the city. $5 for a cookie is a lot. I ordered an avocado chicken sandwich with a cold brew. I was pleasantly surprised with how good the meal was. The chicken was tasty and flavorful. The coffee was bold and strong. Normally I don't expect much from airport restaurants but this one did the trick. I wouldn't say it is as good as other locations in the city but if you are looking for a quick meal you should stop here. read more

Service is quick and I like the quality. You are getting real eggs in your sandwich, not liquid substitute. Fresh cracked in the grill to order. Of course all airport food is expensive but I was satisfied. The size of hot chocolate was nice, like an 8oz. And made with real milk, that's a major plus! They also have oat milk substitute. read more

Was in New York for the week and ONE thing we had forgotten to TRY was their BAGELS! Thankfully, at the airport we were able to grab one for breakfast prior to boarding the plane. The Cinnamon Raisin bagel with Scallion Cream Cheese had the perfect balance of sweet and savory. Anyways, I definitely recommend y'all grab a bagel while you're in the airport and get what the locals get-- the SCALLION spread! read more

2/9/2025 During a layover at LaGuardia Airport, I decided to grab a croissant sandwich from Zaro's Family Bakery. Big mistake. When it was my turn to order, I wasn't entirely sure which flavor to pick. To be considerate, I let the person behind me go first and took a small step aside to get a better view of the food display. Once they finished ordering, I stepped back to the counter, ready to place mine. Before I could even speak, the cashier immediately questioned whether I was cutting the line, using a condescending tone that felt both dismissive and humiliating. I was genuinely shocked--rarely have I been treated that poorly in a place of business. No matter how good the food is, no one should have to deal with that kind of disrespect. I won't be returning--certainly not for a sandwich. read more

Plain Bagel $1.70 + Cream Cheese $2.50 Bagel is a solid 3 stars out of 5. Very heavy cream cheese but that's typical. Brewed coffee tasted okay- more of a medium roast. One size, see my photo for sizing, for all my Starbucks drinkers it's between a size venti and grande. Reasonably priced. read more

I've eaten Zaro's before and it was good. That's why I paid $30 for a cheesesteak sandwich, a black & white cookie, and a bottle of water. But I have to say I'm super disappointed. The sandwich was mostly bread and tasted like something pulled from the freezer and microwaved. And the cookie was bland, cakey, and all the frosting stuck to the package. Very disappointing. read more

Really good bagels with cream cheese. The bagels themselves are cheap, but the cream cheese addition brings these up to $5.50 each. I would definitely get these again in the airport as it's one of the few items that are actually good here. read more

Great bakery items and bagels are the best. I'd go to NYC any day. Grab the everything bagel

I really want to give you zero stars! I was there yesterday 11/16 before noon. I ordered a sesame bagel with cream cheese and a cup of coffee. About $10 at the airport is about right. But!!! The bagel was stale, probably from the previous day. And it had no taste. I felt like I was eating straw. You should learn how to make good bagels from places like Brod Nosh Bagels, or Hudson Bagels in Manhattan. read more

We were flying to Florida and found ourselves in the airport at 5am. Thinking it was going to be too early to buy something to eat we brought sandwiches that we bought the night before but I wasn't looking forward to them at all. Then we stumbled onto Zaro's. The line wasn't very long at all. And when we ordered I was very excited about my Monte Cristco sandwich. Rightfully so, because when I started eating it I thought I died. It was absolutely delicious. Especially since it was purchased in an airport. It actually was like I bought it in a restaurant at Columbus Circle. I am going to go back by there on our way home!! read more

Solid place to grab a bite to eat before leaving the best place in the world.
