About Deke's Bagels

Deke's Bagels is a cozy restaurant known for its tasty bagels and friendly staff. Located on Main Street in Niantic, CT, it offers a wide variety of hand‑rolled, kettle‑boiled, thick‑crusted bagels daily in many flavors like Everything, jalapeño cheddar, roasted garlic, egg, and cheddar. Each bagel has a crisp exterior and chewy interior, with a dense texture that is flavorful and well‑balanced, thanks to Deke’s thoughtful recipe tweaks. Customers enjoy the flavorful cream cheeses such as veggie, sun‑dried tomato, or berry, which add extra personality. The signature “The Niantic” sandwich layers hearty fillings on their robust bagel—perfect for breakfast or a light lunch. The vibe is warm and welcoming, making breakfast feel like a morning ritual among friends. However, there have been some issues with order accuracy, such as receiving the wrong type of cream cheese or incorrect amounts, which can cause frustration, especially when charged extra for customizations. Customers often recommend arriving early to ensure they get their favorite bagel varieties, as choices can be limited later in the day. Despite a few concerns about pricing and order mistakes, many visitors travel from afar and plan to return for the great bagels and friendly service. It is advised to double-check orders before leaving the restaurant. The recent remodel has also enhanced the welcoming atmosphere, and the staff is praised for being wonderful.
