Bagels Restaurants near Highland Park, NJ

“Un excelente servicio y los desayunos 🧇 💯“

“Great food and friendly service!!!“

“Everything is delicious.“

“Ok so being Google keeps asking me to review here I thought and nice Sunday morning coffee and bagel would be good. There is a big parking lot being it’s part of a shopping center. Walking in no confusion as to where to go to order. Everyone seemed very nice and helpful. I think it took me longer to make my coffee then it took to make and bag my bagel. Let me stop boring you with the BS stuff let’s talk bagel and coffee. I have been to a few bagel shops and I have to say Manhattan Bagel has the softest bagels. I did just get a buttered salt but wow the outside was mildly crunchy but like I said nice and soft in the middle. As far as coffee I tried their fall blend pumpkin spice and it tasted very deluded, not to much taste. They didn’t have French vanilla so I went with the pumpkin. Would I go back 100% the bagel was fantastic“

“Great service great food excellent customer service“

“Great breakfast sandwich options for less. Called ahead every time and without fail, my order was ready to go every time I walked in. We enjoyed the bacon, egg and cheese on a croissant as well as plain bagels with cream cheese. The coffee was also nothing to scoff at either. We definitely enjoyed our breakfast, so much so that we went back the next day. And for the price, you can't beat it. Definitely better than what you will get at the nearby hotels and for less.“

“First real bagel since COVID began!“

“The staff are always so friendly and the food is amazing. My only complaint is that you can’t order the baklava online which may be better for me to not order every single day- it’s their best dish!“

“I’ve been coming here for about five years now and I am the most pickiest eater probably, and no matter what I order they always make Sure, I leave happy. Not only do they care about their customers, but they have amazing food just like their name.“

“This is central NJ. ... The home of stripmalls and the obligate pizza, bagel, and Asian restaurants. I live on Rt. 130: within a mile of my home are four bagel stores. Bagel 1 is the best. Huge bagels, crusty, chewey but soft, great flavor. Huge variety. Great prices. Fast, friendly. Efficient service.“

“⭐️ Hidden Gem Alert: Bagel 1 in Old Bridge, NJ ⭐️

It’s amazing how some of the smallest, most unassuming spots turn out to have the most delicious food and Bagel 1 is absolutely one of them.

From the outside, the place might not grab your attention, it may even seem like somewhere you wouldn't go, but don’t judge a book by it's cover! The food coming out of this kitchen is delicious, fresh, flavorful, and made with care. If you’re hunting for a legit bagel or breakfast sandwich, go here.

What really stood out during my visit was the service. Wael, the gentleman working the front counter, was exceptionally polite, attentive, and patient. His attention to detail and willingness to listen closely to my order, especially as someone who likes to customize their breakfast sandwiches, this was refreshing. In many bagel spots, staff can seem rushed or distracted, but Wael made the experience easy.

Whether you're a classic bacon-egg-and-cheese kind of person or someone who likes to get a little creative with your sandwich, Bagel 1 delivers quality without the chaos. The spot is low-key, but the flavor is next level.

Highly recommend swinging by if you’re in the area and want a breakfast that hits the spot. Old Bridge is lucky to have this place!“

“I ordered a bacon egg and cheese on a French toast bagel and it was the best sandwich I’ve ever had it brought back so many memories from when I was younger biting into that sandwich was astounding“

“The only place we'll go. Very high quality product and a great atmosphere. They know their customers names and orders, and always greet new folks with a smile and great service. Their food is always fresh, always great. Our week isn't complete without stopping in to grab breakfast and see their wonderful staff.“

“One of the best bagel sandwiches I have ever had!“

“Amazing! Young lady was so welcoming not sure if I got her name right! Amber? Very sweet and polite and food is amazing too!“

“Best bagels in New Brunswick. I've been patronizing since they moved to their current location in September of 1998. Not much has changed since then, which is a great thing considering the development of the surrounding area.

Some of the lower ratings are subjective. Come in and see for yourself a real gem of Easton Ave. Nicholas is a class act and wonderful reminiscing with. I'll be back, like I always do, when I visit the old stomping grounds.“

“$3 Nonsense fees when you order online for pickup. For a $13.75 order, I am charged an extra $3 or so. Why am I penalized for choosing NOT to phone in? Most restaurants view phone-in calls as costly and occupying staff time. It's my fault for not noticing before I placed the order. I used the website Preferred By Business, which is usually their POS vendor site, which should have the lowest expense for the shop. Lesson learned, call in your order. Side note, their breakfast sandwich has 2 thin slices of pork roll and 1 slice of cheese. It was pathetic. Bagel was fine.“

“I always had Dunellen Bagel when I lived there and it’s the best bagel I’ve ever had. I moved and bagels aren’t the same here so everytime I visit Jersey I have to go to Dunellen Bagel and I have my husband addicted too. He’s never tasted a bagel like this and he was amazed. So we bring bagels back home in our carry-on and freeze them at home. I would 100% definitely recommend this place!“

“I love this people they are so nice, friendly and the store is very very very clean definitely I’ll come back And I’ll recommend it for everyone“

“Good local spot. Tried the belly buster which was as advertised. Staff was courteous and friendly.“

“I don’t want to put bad review for you guys I come there for coffee and bagel all the time ,My family love this place you guys have good bagel but
I think you guys change Your bagel recipe it doesn’t taste right I had this morning sesame and chocolate bagel it taste like bread“

“love love love this place...my favorite bagel is the French toast ..so many other choices as well..great local place“

“best bagels in town!!! Bobby is great!!“

“Really awesome bagels! Typical bagel shop / deli fare. I like the variety of bagels - they have everything, egg everything amd a whole wheat everything! Their multi-grain and french toast bagels are awesome too. Great food. Cooks prepare the food correctly. The staff are very friendly, it shows when they are rushed or stressed, but otherwise they are welcoming and thank us for coming in. The coffee is great! Tasty and fresh, I love some of the flavored beans, but they don't always have every flavor available. Chicken salad and tuna salad and other lunch options are also very good.“

“Not a bad bagel place for those who are in the area, solid pork roll, egg, and cheese sandwich. They have good cream cheese choices too. Overall not the best bang for buck bagel store though. They have a $1 card charge though so bring cash.“

“Perhaps the owner can reach out to me, this is now the 3rd time in the last several months I’ve placed an online pickup order and I’ve been shorted bagels. I keep coming back because I love your bagels, but you need to get it right.“

“We chose not to recommend this place. The most expensive bagel shop we have ever been to. Charged $1.25 for an extra piece of cheese. Charged $7 for a bagel with egg and scallion cream cheese, an egg and cheese sandwich is listed at $3.99. They add $3 for the scallions in the cheese. The other clerk was rude to customers. Will not be going back.“

“Everyone knows they have great bagels, especially their everything bagel…. However, I Accidentally found out they have probably the best tuna sub I’ve had in years! If you’re a fan of tuna, give it a shot! Comes with a side of macaroni salad or coleslaw or other small options“

“First time coming here and i love the bagels! The bagels are fresh and the people working there are very nice too. I had a bacon egg and cheese with a cinnamon raisin bagel and it was by far one of the best bagels I’ve had. I will come back again for sure!“

“Variety of delish food and sandwiches“

“It’s so good We like it very much 👍🏻🌺👍🏻“

“Perfect choice for my son's wedding morning!! The breakfast wraps were outstanding!! Everyone raved about them! Bagels are delicious! Mo was very accommodating and professional! I highly recommend their catering services, I've used them a couple if times and it's always a hit. Thank you Mo.“

“I love Liberty Bagel Cafe!“

“I think that the bagels here are really my favorite bagels in all of NJ. The insides are thick and fluffy, while the outside is slightly crisp, just like a bagel should be. Usually I get a half dozen and an egg and cheese on a bagel to-go. They also have really nice flavored cream cheese.“

“I just have to say, these people are amazing! Thank you thank you thank you soooo much for sending him home with all these delicious bagels!!!! He drove 2 hours to get them and it was the end of the day. You ladies took such good care of him! It didn’t go unnoticed. Your kindness and generosity, not letting him come home empty handed is truly appreciated! We will be back soon 💋♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️!“

“Delicious food! Got the pork roll egg and cheese on a sesame bagel, a sausage egg and cheese on a sesame bagel, and an order of home fries. Everything was hot and delicious!

Parking: Parking can be tight, not many spots in the strip and traffic is high on the road“

“Rahway Bagels has, by far, the best bagels in this area for a good ten mile radius. They are always fresh and delicious, and I love all the varieties of cream cheese spreads. (Today I had the Lox one and it was loaded with Salmon, I definitely got my Omega-3 fix) Everyone that works there is always so pleasant and accommodating even when they are slammed busy, their phones are blowing up with people placing orders to pick up, and it’s only 7 in the morning. They have applied a efficient system to make sure everyone isn’t waiting too long, I have NEVER (and I go there a lot) waited more than ten minutes on an order that is cooked to order. Way to go Rahway Bagels!“

“Tasty clean and fast service! They always acknowledge you when you walk through the door for the smile and a good morning… 🌞 once you try them you’re going to like them for sure!😎“

“It was an acceptable sausage egg and cheese. I have to say it did take a while but I enjoyed the sandwich. The atmosphere is a little dated but I mean it’s bagels 4 u and not atmosphere 4 u so I can’t ding them for that. I also found out that this place is a chain. That means I’ll have to visit more and do a cross sectional analysis of my experiences at this franchise.“
