We will not be going back. Went there for the first time and it was pricey but I figured maybe it’s good food and worth the $$. The food is meh. $35 for 2 bagel sandwiches is crazy! The place is so run down. I don’t recommend. Check out the bagel place in Ramtown instead.

I have never been happier to see a place have new management/ staff!! I have been avoiding Manna after having terrible experiences with the food/service from old staff… but As soon as i seen the ‘new management’ signs I knew I had to try! & I was not disappointed!! food was perfect, exactly what i asked for and did not take long at all! ( one thing I will say is the vibe/ customer service could be a little more friendly) I have high hopes for this place & will be returning!

Come here specifically for the tico breakfast, and have been disappointed the last couple times. It is supposed to come with plantains, but when I opened my order there were no plantains, but instead potatoes, no mention of this from the staff (who are clueless). I added avocado, it was brown. The fried cheese was just dry and gross (used to come with a cheese toritilla that was much better) and they were very skimpy on the rice and beans, which also was not tasty. I loved this breakfast when I first tried it but they’ve consistently gone downhill. I won’t return.

Whoever is the owner of this establishment I high suggest you open your eyes before you let your business run into the ground. This was the second time I’ve tried this bagel spot. We don’t live in brick and we’re visiting family. We were told not to go here because of how bad it is, but it’s close by and I figured it couldn’t be that bad it’s a bagel restaurant right. I was very wrong. Two bagels with cream cheese and two coffees took 20 mins to make with only 3 costumers in the building. The staff unfortunately barely can communicate with the customers the man behind me was trying to ask the woman to cut his bagel in half and she didn’t understand. As someone that also speaks Spanish and English I thought there’s no way all three of these people don’t understand what he’s saying and did not intervene to translate. On top of poor customer service , poor communication, the bagels and coffee were awful. Next time someone tells me to go to a restaurant I’ll just take their advice.

When Manna first opened, I was initially very excited for a new bagel shop just a couple blocks away from my house. The first few visits were rough (slow service, being ignored, not so good bagels, etc) and I chocked it up to being a new business and a learning curve. Each visit expecting it to be a bit better than the last but that was not the case. I’ve given them more chances than I normally would due to its convenient location but I’ve now learned that it is so worth the extra 5-10 minutes to drive elsewhere. I’m not one to usually write reviews like this but I think the customers deserve to know. It’s unfortunate but Manna has lost my business for good now. I wish them the best but I will not be giving them yet another chance.

I have to say these bagels are the best that I've had in central New Jersey, not only are they larger than most Bagels they are also crunchy on the outside and nice and soft in the inside, they have so much flavor, the everything egg flavor is my favorite it's $20 for a dozen bagels which is a little steep for the $20 I wish they would give at least the baker's dozen, the place inside and out is always very very clean and the staff is very pleasant I just wish it was open a little later in the day

Was our first time. Was skeptical at first but food was great and generous amounts They make in house bagles and they are very good and on the soft side. Our favorite Pricing was extremely fair Fast service and clean
Bagels are decent, but might wait 20 minutes to get it...Took away self service coffee bar. Never had a smooth transaction at this place.

Place is really bad. Unorganized and unprofessional. Food sucks. Breakfast sandwich is all dough. Feels like when your 5 year old wants to cook mommy and daddy breakfast

For the amount of money charged, you call this a sandwich? Highly disappointed. 3 pieces of thin pork roll.

Manna’s makes the perfect bagel! Big, soft, crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside. I drive from the other side of town for these! Definitely worth the trip! Highly recommend!!!
