    Very friendly neighborhood spot with tons of regulars! This spot has been around foreverrr, but recently undergone new ownership, so the quality of the bagels aren't the same as what it used to be imo - they're still decent! The menu is pretty extensive and they have tons of other sandwich options, as well as your typical convenient store finds. The place opens bright and early at 6 am and gets pretty busy in the morning, but the service is thankfully quick. Everything is extremely affordable, unlike Manhattan prices. Some days the bagels are fluffier than others, so it's a bit inconsistent, but this place is still my go-to for a quick deli coffee and yummy bagels!

    The bagels here are not bad! Nice crunch on the outside, good chewy flavor on the inside. A little hint of the sweetness, and this is a darn good bagel. I knock points for the mediocre sandwich. The guy behind the counter let me try the whitefish salad which tasted absolutely disgusting. Then I tried the tuna salad which while better, was overloaded with onions. I should not have ordered it because I ended up throwing away a decent bagel when I should have better thought this one out, rather than throwing it out. I recommend this bagel joint to others, but keep it on the breakfast side of things when looking for what to get with it.

    The best on this block! Always busy, so we usually have to call ahead for a quicker pick-up. We get our breakfast sandwiches but never on a bagel (I know I know, they're called Zee BAGELS, we should probably try a bagel someday) and it hits the spot every time. Kinda hard to screw up a breakfast sandwich though, so their eggs are also nicely cooked and the entire thing cheesy to my satisfaction. Always get the double meat, because without it, it's quite a flattened breakfast sandwich. If I had to pick, definitely get the sausage egg and cheese - it's the sausage patty, not the links, phewww. Their breakfast platter is also ginormous! Those pancakes are the size of my face.

    Great little bagel place! It was a bit to crowded for a small little place . But they have you in and out in a snap! They do have a sign 5 people allowed in at a time but ..... I ordered my lox cream cheese on a pumpernickel bagel, very good! My in-laws and husband had the tuna on everything they said was excellent. I definitely will return.

    My go to bagel spot when I'm home now. Consistently good every time. Plain bagel w/ butter& jelly is my new jam. Tried an everything bagel w/ scallion cream cheese too (flavored cream cheese is more expensive). And the iced coffee hit the spot. I bet this place gets real busy in the morning, I don't usually stop by until 9-10am and there's been a line every time.

I asked for their advice on what kind of lox to order and they cut me a healthy slice to try of each. And the lox is to die for. The nova is the classic, but also got some gravlax and the pastrami lox. All had their unique flavors that were distinctly different. Amazing! And yes ~$60/pound is expensive, but it's artisan, hand carved and they even cut out the little bit of blood line so every bit is perfect. It's worth the splurge every once in a while. I will say though the bagels there were just meh unfortunately. Kinda average and on this day below average if you ask me. So ideal...get your bagel somewhere else like Bagel Pub or Utopia and then get your lox here!

It was about a 20 minute wait from enter the shop, grabbing a ticket, waiting for your number to be called, ordering the sandwich, getting the food and paying. Waiting for your number to be called happens faster than you think as people do drop out like flies, so just be patient. If you order yourself a Classic Bagel & Lox Sandwich ($17) like I did, you can watch them filet the salmon fresh from the fish itself to be used just for your sandwich. I did everything bagel and choose Scallion cream cheese, which seems like the popular choice. It's good enough to go out of the way to try once in your life. To be a repeat customer, idk if I want to wait in line for this every weekend. Additionally, there's no seating besides the benches that's outside. I do have to give it to them, among the chaos, the employee that helped me was super friendly. I also saw some of the customers get salmon samples of the salmon for the lox. Idk if they asked or the employee just happened to be offering it.

It's a pretty spacious bagel spot with ample seating menu's with pricing for all items they sell which is helpful. Food: 3/5 I ordered a jalapeño bagel with turkey bacon, and scrambled eggs. The bagel was okay nothing to rave about your standard bagel. Nothing to make me fave about it. The texture was chewy and a bit doughy if you like your bagels that texture this may be the spot for you. Overall my bagel was about 10-12$ I believe. They charge extra for a rainbow bagel and other specialty bagels like jalapeño. Which is pretty expensive so make sure you're aware of that. Service: 3/5 The customer service was mediocre. The guy at the front wasn't the most pleasant. Very much get you in an out top of place. They weren't rude but not the most cheerful I'd say. Ambiance: 3/5 standers bagel shop nothing really impressive or spectacular. I will say when in the area due to the lack of places to eat that make REAL food. I have come back here and the bagels have been decent. Would like the staff to be more pleasant.
