Bagels Restaurants near Colts Neck, NJ

“Best damn bagels hands down. These guys know how to make them. Sorry Ess-a-bagel (NYC), you’re a sorry second. I travel out of my way to visit this place because it’s worth it. Long live Colts Neck Bagels.“

“THIS IS HANDS DOWN THE BESTT BAGEL SHOP EVER!!!! 10/10! THE STAFF ARE SOME OF THE KINDEST AND FRIENDLIEST PEOPLE IVE EVER MET AND THEY MAKE EVERY VISIT SUCH A JOY!! THE FOOD IS ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS, AND ILL DEFINITELY BE COMING BACK AGAIN AND AGAIN!!“

“Food is amazing!!!! It is on point!“

“great place to stop for breakfast!! bagels are excellent and so are the breakfast sandwiches and everything that they have is good..... and the owner is very nice..“

“Great service, kind workers and good prices! Sandwiches were delicious!“

“Great bagels!!!! Great service too!!“

“Wow! From the first time I took a bite out of the mix dozen bagels I bought I knew I have found the perfect bagel. Great staff, clean and a delicious variety of coffee.“

“Just because it’s shaped like a bagel doesn’t make it a bagel. I am there every Wednesday morning where I buy 8 bagels. From the glass you can see the giant vat in the back where they ACTUALLY boil their bagels which is the correct way to make a bagel and not just round dough in the shape of a bagel. These bagels are the best bagels I’ve ever had in New Jersey since moving from New York. The woman behind the counter is always so nice. Their bagels for the quality are well priced. I have plenty of bagel spots around where I live but I drive a few extra miles to this place.“

“We stopped by our cousins bagel shop today for the first time. Incredibly delicious light and airy Bagels. The Calabria, rosemary olive oil?and jalapeño bagels are to die for. Best of luck in the store. My suggestion is that everyone go there and try some.“

“I can’t even begin to explain how amazing these bagels are!! The outside has that perfect bite and crunch, while the inside is soft and fluffy like a pillow. This place is a 10/10. The bagels are fresh, flavorful, and exactly what a bagel should be! You can tell they actually care about making a quality bagel here. Safe to say this is my new go-to spot!“

“Great tasting bagels and breakfast sandwiches on your choice of bagel or roll!!“

“AMAZING and VERY DELICIOUS BAGELS THAT ARE ACTUALLY HAND ROLLED AND THE BAGEL STATION HAS A WONDERFUL SWEET ATMOSPHERE ALMOST LIKE HOME AND THEY HAVE BEEN AROUND FOR 37 years so that alone should tell you something that they are doing something right!!!
Come try their Amazing bagels for yourself and YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!!!
They also have other delicious fresh food and good tasty hot coffee as well!!
Buon appetite ???!!!“

“yummy. great service reasonably priced tasty food“

“Price was great. Service was awesome. Taste of the food was excellent. Highly recommend.“

“There's a new guy in charge! The guy with the glasses and does the cooking, he is legit and doesn't forget anything. He's very cool.

These bad reviews were from a year ago when they had different workers and yes, they were horrible.

But these new workers are awesome!“

“Ate here the other day and it was great. Big fan of their pork roll egg n cheese. Store was clean and the staff was very friendly. Highly recommend.“

“I had Bagel Masters bagels for the first time this weekend. Have I been missing out! Perfect texture of the bagel, super fresh and the kind that melts in your mouth. Satisfying and delicious!! Highly recommend! Wherever you live in New Jersey, head to Bagel Masters for the yummiest Bagel you will ever have!!“

“Another incredible breakfast from Gems Little Silver/Grandma’s!! Pork roll egg and cheese sandwich X5 and a few Rocket sandwiches, a couple of bagels… every bite was phenomenal as always!! On top of the service from Lily and both Oscars being truly outstanding completes the 5 star+ rating!!
Do not miss this little Gem when you are in the area!!!“

“So happy you guys reopened, a staple of my childhood! Best bagels at the Jersey Shore hands down, and now they offer delicious homemade spreads! I got the mini with Veggie cream cheese and that will be in my weekend rotation from now on. Also the entire place is sparkling clean. I can't believe its the same place. Bravo!!

Vegetarian options: Limitless veggie options!“

“I've been to every bagel deli in the area and this one outshines them all. Bagels are perfect and the food is great. Staff is friendly and helpful. So glad my grandson, Nick, introduced me to this place. If you want to relax with friends over coffee, there is a small lounge area or sit at a table to enjoy your food.“

“Bagels are good they are the best bagels I have ever tasted“

“Only place that makes fresh delicious bialys. Bagels are good too!“

“Pops bagels are the best bagels on the jersey shore. The chicken salad with lettuce and bacon on everything bagel can't be beat! Delicious! And join the sandwich club buy 6 breakfast sandwiches get one free. Get the card at the counter and make sure they punch it every visit!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bagel Factory Cafe in Matawan is hands down one of the best spots around. The bagels are always fresh, the coffee is perfect, and the whole place has such a welcoming vibe. What really stood out was the amazing service—Ameel took great care of us, making sure everything was exactly how we wanted. Friendly, attentive, and genuinely kind, he made the experience even better. Definitely my go-to cafe from now on!“

“I was so so excited to try this place. I got a blueberry muffin , an Elvis a club and a cookie and breakfast sandwich. I got my order and they made my club wrong so made it again and it was wrong so ill im waiting bored bc its been about 20 minutes I noticed they forgot my elvis also judt a sorry nothing never again. it was over $50“

“Best bagels around! Every road trip starts with a few bagel sandwiches and they never disappoint. Friendly staff and great service“

“first time customer today. and surely not the last time I'll be going. great bagels for a great price of quality food. staff is extremely friendly. if you like mini bagels this is the spot!“

“First off is like to state how clean this place is. Genuinely it's so organized and clean that it was one of the first things I noticed. Now I haven't ordered any bagels (I'm not a bagel eater myself) but I have danced around the menu and can say that the Amazing is not false advertisement! Genuinely everything I've had has been so delicious that it's insane. The prices are wonderful, the coffee is insanely good (I'm a java head) and the service is top notch. If you're in the area and don't know what to do for lunch or breakfast, RUN here. No disappointment, just a food coma and a smile.“

“Went there today with my daughter and friend best sandwiches We have ever had in a long time. We had the Grilled Reuben, Buffalo Chicken sandwich, Fried Buttermilk chicken sandwich and the burger. Everything was delicious. The kids had the chicken sandwich and burger and they raved about the bun which was awesome. The homemade macaroni salad was also a big hit. Hands down to owner Rob and manager Raul their hospitality was top notch. Definitely will go back and this time bringing the entire family. So if you are ever in town stop by and believe me you won’t be disappointed“

“Classic Pork roll, egg, and cheese on a bagel. Reduced one star for smaller bagel options, 10 styles or so. Baker's dozen for $18 is more than fair. Great quality, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Cash only and very limited coffee options. Bring your own travel mug, so hot you might get burned with their cup. Old School Jersey service, great experience.“

“I always look for bagel places when I am roaming the state of NJ. There is good parking out front of the store. Getting in and out from the highway is a bit tricky. I went at lunchtime so it was not super busy. Odd setup inside makes it hard to order. Service was good. The bagel was very good.“

“Last time I was here, bagels and coffee were great, fresh and prompt service. The issue was their largest coffee cup size was too small for me, so I cannot make this my morning breakfast stop. Even though the bagels are good, I can't make two stops in the morning. Need to offer at least a 24 oz. coffee cup size. Their largest is only about 16 oz.“

“I grew up with Gem’s in the Burg- these are the absolute BEST bagels by far!!! I can’t wait to visit this summer and get my fix 🥯 ❤️“

“Local favorites offering good bagels, and they make good sandwiches.
I've gone here three times in the last 2 weeks and each time was greeted with a smile and friendly staff is appreciated especially at 6:30 in the morning. 😉
Good coffee!!!
Thanks!“

“Great pour overs, well trained staff“

“Recently checked out Joe’s Bagel and Grill in Robertsville, NJ—and honestly, I’m confused by all the hate. Yeah, I saw the reviews complaining about pricing, gluten-free “gouging,” and service, but that wasn’t our experience at all.

We tried the gluten-free options since my partner needs them, and everything was solid. Staff were super friendly—smiling, helpful, just genuinely nice people. I went back-to-back on Friday and Saturday, no issues either time. Food was great, service was fast, and the vibe was good.

Sure, like anyone, I’d love for life to be cheaper—but I actually think the pricing here is fair for the area and the quality. It’s a bagel shop, not a mortgage payment. People in these reviews need to chill.“

“We went ABC hoping for some authentic bagels (they now close at 2pm btw). The bagels were really good (like bagels are supposed to be…dense and chewy not bread shaped into o’s) and the ladies behind the counter could both have been nicer! Worth a visit!! We ate some there and took a dozen to-go too!“

“Been coming here for years. All around service is impeccable and food is tasty. A solid choice for breakfast and lunch. Try it out“

“Great food, great people, come here all the time when I'm back home.“

“Absolutely! Love the fruity pebble bagel❤️“

“Recently, I decided to set up a bagel and coffee morning for my son's daily program, as a thank you to the staff for the yearlong dedication they show. I contacted MB with my request, and the two employees that worked so closely with me were exceptional. They explained the various food bundles to me and helped me with how much I would need to make sure everyone enjoyed a nice breakfast. Speaking with Nestor about the details made my day because he was friendly and helpful. Ashwin assured me that my order would be as we discussed and on time for the morning I chose (24 hour notice was given) I will definitely turn to this MB again when I need to cater in this way. The recipients were delighted and said there was such an array for a bagel mornin! In the bundle I chose, in addition to the bagels and smears, there were pastries orange juice coffee and plentiful fruit platters.“

“I have been going to gems since they first opened in Keansburg! They have good food and I understand with food cost they had to raise prices. I wish they would put a little bit more on breakfast sandwiches for what they charge. Other than that they still taste great and the employees are always friendly!“

“Nice people. Quick to try to get your order done as fast as possible. PRICEY! New kids on the block, trying to make a go at just what we needed... Another bagel place! Not to put them down. They were very nice and polite and the place is clean. Very very clean. But PRICEY! I WISH THEM THE BEST OF LUCK. Unfortunately due to the priciness and the location this will not be my go-to bagel stop. I wish them all the best of luck!“

“We (The Villages) catered corned beef sandwiches for St. Paddy's Day Dance last week. Everything was delicious & fresh! Can't wait till next years party! Thank you Terrace Bagels Freehold!“

“I just had the grilled French toast bagel. It is the best little breakfast treat! The bagels here are top tier!!“

“Manager is very honest....i left by credit card and i came back after 5 days and i got it back...friendly.people....very good vibes! 5 star...“
