Bagels Restaurants near Kearny, NJ

“Been going there since Middle School. I love the food and the portions they have it is a good price for a portion and the staff there are lovely people.

Dietary restrictions: I have some dietary restrictions such as no cheese or no tomatoes and I know how weird tomatoes are to have as a dietary restriction but they accommodate and or at least tell you what to avoid eating.

Parking: Parking spots I think there is 2 infant of the location 3 across the lot and below the street on the side where the location is there is probably 4

Kid-friendliness: It has a table to keep the kids calm as well as these coin machines and I've seen once where they helped a lady who had a baby stroller sit and help her with a chair as well put the baby stroller away so it wouldn't disturb the other customers.“

“Ok. So I've seen good and bad reviews. Maybe it's all about what time you go there. I popped my head in this establishment around 6:30am. The bagels were fresh. I'm use to a higher standard of eggs but you can't expect much here. Kind of felt like a truck stop. A good amount of people seem to stop there on their way to work/school. Being what is it, it's decent. Spots like this are all over the place in New Jersey. But like I said, the bagels were fresh. Not a large verity of items to pick from when it comes to drinks, potatoes chips, candy bars, etc. Funny part, they wanted $8 for 3 Snapples. I'm like, what is the exact price for one... It was too early and I was in a rush so I just paid and left. Not a plane that I would recommend.“

“Excelente servicios y muy bueno.“

“We ordered breakfast for five online on Christmas Eve and everyone loved what they got!“

“Absolutely the best! The bagels were so delicious and all the cream cheese were delicious. We went to the ones in Queens NYC The staff were great , Freedie was phenomenal! Will definitely come back!“

“I always get great service in this place. The food is fantastic (especially for the price). Their salads are made fresh on the spot... they cut everything fresh as they need em... they don't store the lettuce pre cut in tubs like most restaurants do. This is just an example of what sets Ben's apart from most places. Now, yes, I know they pride themselves for their bagels, but truth be told, I don't eat bagels... but my wife LOVES their bagels. -Boots“

“There are tons of bagel places in NJ, but we always find ourselves comparing to House of Bagels. Definitely our favorite bagels - they’re so soft and fluffy on the inside, great crust with plenty of seasoning (our whole family loves everything bagel). What really seals the deal for us is that the bagels freeze and reheat beautifully. They taste almost as good as new. Our kids have them almost every morning 😂 We’ve moved quite far away but always stock up on our favorite bagels whenever we have a reason to be back in the area.“

“It always a pleasure visiting JV Hot Bagels. The menu are impressive, with a variety of mouth-watering options that are bursting with flavor. The service is impeccable, with friendly and attentive staff who make my wife and I feel like VIPs. The owner even remembers are names.To top it off, we were surprised with complimentary meals from time to time. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a memorable experience. You won't be disappointed!"“

“Tried this spot today for the first time
I ordered three sandwiches
Turkey, bacon, egg & cheese on a plain bagel: classic

Garlic bagel with pastrami, egg & cheese. They don’t skimp on the pastrami

Turkey sausage, egg & cheese on a croissant.

I found the bagels to be soft enough for my kid which was a big deal for him.

Ordered two iced macchiatos without the sugar which was really good

The lady at the register was sweet and welcoming.

It got busy and they handled it really well, it wasn’t a mad house like some places get.“

“I moved out of the area, but I’ve been hyped for this new bagel spot, and today I finally got to check it out. The place was packed, with almost a line out the door, but I hung in there. Totally worth it—the bagel did not disappoint! I went with my usual (toasted everything bagel with scallion cream cheese, bacon, tomato, and cucumber), and it was perfect. Even with everyone waiting, the vibe stayed chill, the bagels are baked fresh right there, and they crank them out as fast as you order. The spot has a super cool atmosphere, and I'll definitely be back whenever I can. About time downtown got itself a legit bagel joint.“

“Never had a bad experience there, People friendly. They take care to remember what you order and how you liked it. I think they know probably 90% of the names of their daily customers. Like i said people friendly. It's time to add your name to the list.

Parking: Available all the time

Kid-friendliness: Great atmosphere for kids“

“We had a great experience at The Regular while in town for the marathon. The food was amazing and I can’t say enough about the friendly staff, they were all attentive and a big shout out to the barista in the front…she greeted everyone with a smile and was so pleasant going above and beyond to make everyone that walked in the door feel like so welcomed.“

“The bagels here are so good, they are life changing. After trying a bagel here, I realized I had never had a good bagel in my life before this one, and I will never look at another bagel the same way again. If I could give a million stars out of five, I would.“

“Absolutely THE BEST bagels on Earth! A staple of the community, generous and giving, family-run business. One of those places where “everybody knows your name and they’re always glad you came.” Every Monday!“

“Excelente los desayunos..“

“Varon is one of my favorite employees. Yesterday he made me some guacamole he was sooooooooooooooooo patient with me lol. Thank you Varon for being so great to meeeeeeeeeeeee.....“

“Clean workers . And nice service“

“Food is always on point! Staff are very kind people. I’m here almost every morning!!! You can always tell when a bagel shop cleans their grills by the taste of the food and the food is delicious every single time! Anyone who complains about how busy they are should realize it’s because of how good they are and know when you finally get your food you will love it! See you guys tomorrow morning. Lol“

“Hands downbeat! Best friggen Bagel Spot on the planet. Bang for the buck. Deliciousness done right!“

“Really cute place with plenty of clean tables. Staff is nice and friendly and even brought my bagel over to me. A little expensive, I had an everything cheese egg and chorizo for $9. The chorizo is extra cost but very good, adds a nice zing and crisp to it. The everything bagel is also very flavorful. Best bagel I’ve had in Bayonne.“

“this place is absolutely money! all the people working here are awesome and incredibly efficient. no matter how crowded it is i never have to wait longer than 5 minutes for my order. i make it a point to come in at least once a week for my sausage egg and cheese on an everything bagel. they have a great selection of grab and go food and drinks as well. i seriously cannot recommend this place enough! stop in and grab a bite. you won’t be disappointed!“

“My family and I were here from Canada for a concert, we were looking for a place to grab some breakfast and we stumbled upon your location. We had the bagel breakfast sandwich, and it was the best we ever had,hats off to the stafff for the great food and service. And I should also mention that my wife said you had the best coffee she ever had! (Hazelnut)“

“The best bagel shop in Bay Ridge. Better than any bagel shop in Park slope where I used to live. The bagels are great. They are not giant fluffy buns. They are soft on the inside but chewy on the outside they are flavorful. The prices are fair. The staff is so nice, professional and efficient. Without fail! When I get my bagel anywhere else, I am disappointed because I compare it to Bagel Villa! And they also have really good fresh baked muffins. The corn muffin in particular is great.“

“Best bagel shop this side of Route 3!From excellent CONSISTENT quality of food, a great selection, and the best staff any customer could wish for, this place is truly a hidden gem.Easy parking in the front and back, and always there to answer for a quick pick up order; great with catering too! This place has won my family and friends over for good.Thank you Bagel Plus & Cafe! See you soon again!Cheers!-Best Regards: Karim G. Daif“

“Sonny’s Bagels in South Orange makes exceptional bagels and has the best smoked fish in NJ!!!“

“I live in the area and attend college out of town so getting to the library on my off days is tough. I've been looking for a place with a chill ambiance, wifi, good tea, and coffee. Well, look no more for me. I thoroughly enjoyed my time here. Great rustic look, comfy seating with back support, loads of outlets for laptops, and the second-floor space are super cute and cozy too. Oh and there's a small little outside area that's pretty cool as well. Shaquille (hope I spelled it right) was AMAZING! So down-to-earth, friendly, polite, and easy to talk to. She made me the Tumeric latte for me and I all but licked the cup clean. I had the hummus & cucumber on sourdough toast and it was divine. Also, a great option for vegans. I totally recommend this place if you have similar needs or just want to hang out with some friends. I will surely be going back.“

“Loved it! Ordered the lamb gyro and falafel and both were delicious.

Falafel seemed to be homemade, great flavor and crunch without being dry.

Lamb Gyro was perfect. Thick warm pita, perfect amount of lettuce, onions, etc. with actual meat (not those frozen shaved cylinders of meat goo) .

Clearly I enjoyed myself, I’m still glowing. If your craving a gyro you won’t be disappointed“

“The deli was very clean and the smells of the food were amazing. The bacon egg and cheese with scallion cream cheese will be a breakfast essential. Staff were absolutely wonderful and polite. Service was quick and food presentation was amazing. And to top it off, they asked if I wanted my muffin toasted with butter and I was blown away! They must be used as an example of excellence!“

“the best food ever in the town toasted bagels ××××ד

“Proof that the best bagels and in the city really do exist outside of Manhattan. Came here yesterday morning for the first time at it felt so nostalgic to be in a classic NY bagel shop. Staff was kind and enthusiastic and my bagel sandwich was great.“

“it's a cool treat for my colleagues“

“Fresh soft bagels !! Great service ! Glad I found this spot🔥“

“We visited the place last Saturday. The cheese bread is fresh but not really the bagels we got. We waited so long ; we found out that my daughter’s order was given to someone else but they did not care to replace it at once. When we asked about our order, that’s the time they rushed to prepare it , in less than five minutes, the sandwich was handed to us. When we were in the car since we’re already late for our next appointment, my daughter found out that the replacement was wrong. She paid for plain bagel with double eggs, bacon, and cheese but she was given with plain bagel with cheese only. They asked for our phone number but did not initiate the call. I hope they will do better in their team work.“

“I've tried bagels spots all over Bay Ridge and this is the best. The bagels are fresh and delicious. The guys working the counter are efficient and friendly. There is enough seating and the place is clean. And the price is right. What more could you ask for out of a bagel shop.“

“This is awesome has a great menu food in delicious 😋 service is fantastic as well“

“As long time S&T customers, we've been searching for a replacement, and this is it. As far as I can tell, this is one of the few local bagel places that gets the nice exterior crunch and soft inside :) I'd say maybe the bagels (and the veggie cream cheese) are a notch less good than S&T, but very happy to have found this place.“

“Awesome spot in Kenilworth, huge selections of bagels, huge selections of cream cheese spreads (veg, scallion, oreo, raspberry, blueberry, walnut/raisin to name a few) plus all the regular breakfast options.

Large drink selections, many diet drink options too.

Own parking lot, 6 or 8 tables to dine in.

Large staff, everybody working, always cleaning, straightening up, very impressed with how they take care of the kitchen/prep area while they're working.

Highly recommend.“

“Love this place! Such a nice, cozy vibe. I usually come here after training at the ice rink across the street and always grab my favorite almond milk latte. I really appreciate that they use high-quality milk — it tastes great and keeps the drink low-calorie, which helps me stay in shape. Haha, athlete problems!

They also have super tasty pastries, granola, and other desserts. A bit more indulgent, but hey — that just means I’ll need to train a little harder. Totally worth it!

The service is awesome. The staff is super friendly, attentive, and everything’s always clean. Even the bananas are perfectly arranged — seriously, check out the video I’m attaching! 😂

Highly recommend this spot. Thank you, Manhattan Bagel!“

“Amazing food and service.“

“incredibly delicious. this place has competition in the area but the food does not. You can never drive past without seeing a line you should also never drive past without stopping to treating yourself.. highly recommended often imitated never duplicated..“

“The bagel store is located in the Bay Ridge section of Brooklyn. They serve a variety of bagels that are very good. Bagels are fresh, big and have a generous portion of seeds. The tuna salad and egg salad were well-prepared. The store also makes breakfast sandwiches and burgers. They sell cold cuts and drinks. Nice friendly and helpful staff.“

“Customer service was great and more importantly the bagel was delicious. I’ll soon find out about other stuff from the menu.“

“It's great place with great people I love the food, fresh and never disappointed“

“They need to make more room in there maybe get rid of the iles and shelves n put a seating aka waiting area with a table n Nice to sit down and have a big screen TV and play QUICK DRAW!! Also more important it would be nice if they had a ticket order number machine so they can yell out a number when a order is ready and one person at a time can go to the register and pay instead of everyone hanging around on top of each other like animals lol...best bagels ever . Get rid of the shelves n stock and focus on the take out gold mine ..“

“This place is wonderful! The owner and staff are extremely helpful and friendly. The food is great. I can't say enough positive things about Metro Bagel & Cafe!!“

“I’ve been going to this establishment on and off for quite a few years. I got in just under the wire for the grill to be on and I ordered my sandwich on a bagel and I ordered an additional buttered bagel. Everything was prepared perfectly. Great value, sandwich and service.“

“Stopped by Leo’s and grabbed a BEC bagel and a plain bagel with strawberry cream cheese. The BEC was fresh, hot, and hit the spot, while the strawberry cream cheese was fresh and flavorful. The bagels are hugeeee btw so just be mindful so you don’t over order.

Solid bagel spot if you’re looking for a quick, quality bite. Definitely will be back.“

“Probably the best bagel I’ve had. Their cream cheese was on point, que quality of the dough was amazing and they were so fast preparing them as well.
We got an egg bagel with baggie cream cheese and eggs, and a cinnamon and raisin bagel with egg and cheese. Both really good. Perfect amount of everything and the perfect texture. On top of that, they are really nice and personable. 100% recommended!“

“Absolutely the best bagel there is. Each one no matter the flavor is a delight. And their food that they put on the bagel is delicious. Get there before 3;30 PM if you want sliced cheese because they close the slicer at 3;30. I know if I get there at 3;32 PM the slicer is off. So I get tuna fish instead and it’s about as good as it gets. The staff is friendly and do a good job. What a place!“

“I absolutely love this place! The bagels were fresh, delicious, staff is incredibly kind, welcoming, and helpful. It’s so good to be greeted with such genuine warmth and smiles. The gentleman at the register was especially wonderful, so friendly and patient with our poor english language, and event recommend us cool places in town!“
