Very good bagels, run by a very nice family. The atmosphere is clean, but not somewhere that's very inviting to eat. Since the pandemic, I haven't seen literally anybody eating here. People just get their stuff to go. That said, they make proper boiled bagels fresh every day. They're chewy and crisp when toasted, which is exactly how a bagel should
be. I'm a lox guy, and they've only ever served me good, fresh lox. This is an important detail....
I feel bad for this place. They make some of the best, authentic NYC bagels anywhere. Much better than some of the better known shops. But they are family run, and they seem burned out. They have been robbed a few times and I think that would sap the spirit from anyone. These days, they only stay open until 2pm, and run out of many flavors long before. The poor woman at the counter seems like she'd rather be anywhere else. But they still make great bagels! So I go...
I don’t know why people are trying to say these other bagel places like Boichek and Poppy are better. I LOVE this place!!! It’s completely under rated and should be packed and sold out everyday. The sausage egg and cheese bagel and the lox sandwich are the usual order. Amazing and just so good!
