Empire Bagels offers excellent New York style bagels and friendly customer service. Visitors praise the delicious pork roll, egg, and cheese bagel, along with the breakfast bagels that showcase the high quality of the offerings. The bagels are soft with a slight chew and just the right touch of sweetness, making them a favorite among locals and tourists alike. The staff, mainly young, bring energy and are always pleasant and accommodating, efficiently handling busy times with quick service. The shop also features a variety of fresh bagels and cream cheese options, including the popular maple cream cheese. Customers appreciate that Empire Bagels imports NYC’s water, ensuring authentic bagel quality. Convenient online ordering for pickup is available, though the shop can sell out quickly. Many customers consider it the best bagel spot around, and frequent visitors often return for their breakfast egg sandwiches and other favorites. Located in the Winn-Dixie plaza in Punta Gorda, it remains a popular destination for bagel lovers seeking quality and affordability.
