Bagels Restaurants near Lyndhurst, NJ

“Great food and service!“

“I've been going to this place for years, and I usually get nothing but compliments about it. And that's mainly because of the freshness of the food. On a nice weekend, when the weather is warm, you could sit outside with your family or even just sit with someone from the community and converse with them.“

“Amazing staff, amazing food (better than my bubbies, but don’t tell her) absolutely loved it!!“

“Russ & Daughters is always one of the places I look forward to visiting whenever I’m in New York.

Everything is incredibly fresh and delicious. You can really taste the quality of the ingredients, especially the fish and seafood. They have a great selection of fish, bagels, and all the classic combinations, and everything we tried was excellent.

What I also really appreciate is how clean and well-maintained everything feels. Even with so much seafood being prepared and served, you never get any feeling of messiness or poor hygiene. The whole place feels very professional and high-quality, and the level of service matches that.

Absolutely delicious, fresh, and worth coming back to. Every time I visit New York, I’m already looking forward to the day I can come back to Russ & Daughters again.“

“I like their bagels but their prices for everything else are quite inflated. They charge almost forty dollars for a pound of whitefish salad. So I buy bagels there and food elsewhere.“

“The best bagels hands down! This has become our "go to" stop each time we pass through NY for bagels. Great customer service. We can call ahead and they have the order ready for our multiple (and large) family order with everything perfect! Super helpful and also help with bringing the many bags out to the car! So much appreciation! Thanks guys! Can't wait to see you again!“

“Fresh bagels, hand rolled and made onsite. Can’t beat the selection. I thought it would be a tourist trap due to its location, but it beat every other shop we tried.“

“I have used Bagels and a Schmear for the past few years for breakfast catering for events with my employer. They are WONDERFUL to work with! They are always on time for delivery or early, fairly priced, the order is always correct, baked goods and fruit plates are fresh and very nice presentation. They are my official breakfast caterer!“

“Delicious bagels and schmear!!“

“I want to book a trip back to nyc just to have another coffee and smashed avo! Regular is one of the best brunch spots - delicious food, amazing staff, and even better coffee. This place never disappoints, you'll find yourself coming back everyday for more (especially since it's the best coffee in the city). 10/10 recommend!“

“You might wait a while, but your stomach will thank you. These people work hard and it shows in the products they produce.“

“you have to try the dill pickle schemer“

“Just saw a Tik Tok where the staff went out of their way to put up a ramp to accommodate a gentleman who is a wheelchair user. Good on ya, guys! 🙌 Kindness matters! 🤍“

“Thank you Brooklyn Bagel for an amazing luncheon after my son’s Bar Mitzvah!! You were so easy to work with and everything was so good! I highly recommend your catering services!!“

“Awesome place for bagels, especially super early before a flight because they are open 24 hours. Also right next to a subway entrance so very conveniently located. Didn’t try anything else on the menu. We went here twice during our stay in Manhattan. Friendly service especially whoever was there the first time, didn’t catch a name. I had an everything bagel with lox and a cream cheese bagel with bacon. Both very good“

“the food is delicious, the service and efficiency is on point! For NYC these prices are very affordable!“

“Utopia Bagels is definitely one of the best bagel places in New York, and after my visit, I can understand why it's so highly rated.

The bagels were fresh, delicious, and lived up to the hype. But what impressed me even more was the staff. They were always smiling, friendly, and more than happy to help, especially for first-time customers who weren't familiar with the menu. They patiently explained the different options without making us feel rushed.

To be honest, this kind of genuine customer service is becoming harder to find, especially in a busy metropolitan city like New York. It really made the whole experience even better.

Kudos to the entire team for not only serving great bagels but also making customers feel genuinely welcome. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in New York. 🥯👏“

“The food and customer service is excellent!!
Traveled from NC to NJ for a family gathering and passed by on my returned to NC. I stopped in for breakfast and left with a dozen of bagels from this side of heaven 😜
My family and I have enjoyed your bagels 🥯all week long. Bagels here in NC, not so good. I'm a Jersey girl! Taste buds and all!
Thank you B Bagels!!!!!“

“They have lots of breakfast and lunch bagel sandwiches, including a full Prime Roots menu. Staff is very accommodating and will help you choose vegan bagels from the many options for each sandwich. Updated from previous review on 2026-08-30“

“Turkey , egg and , cheese on an everything bagel. Best spot around !“

“awesome bagels, yummy bagels!“

“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.“

“The bagels of my Brooklyn youth!“

“This is the gold standard for a New York bagel shop. Chewy and flavorful, always freshly made. Your order is ready in 2-3 minutes and they don't skimp on the toppings. An everything scooped toasted with chicken salad is my standard and it's never disappointed.“

“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.....“

“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!"“

“Carlos has been making bagels for years! Glad to see him start his own business!“

“I had a fantastic bagel with lox at this cafe. The lady at the counter was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the cafe itself was spotless, cozy, and inviting. If I ever come back to New Jersey, I’ll definitely stop by for breakfast again!“

“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“

“Friendly, helpful staff. Fantastic coffee!“

“the best of everything!! I so love 5his place! i'ts just what king needed!!🥰“

“The quality of the bagels at the “new” Court Street Bagels are still excellent but everything else is not how it used to be. It is much nicer inside due to a major renovation that was done, but it is more like a factory now than a neighborhood bagel store. The workers are nice enough, but under the previous ownership, the workers knew everyone’s name and it was a significantly better, albeit very long, experience. Despite having 5x as many workers now, the wait times are better, but still curiously long for very simple orders. It is extremely crowded on weekend mornings which definitely contributes to the wait times so definitely be prepared to wait at least 10 to 20 minutes at those times. If this review was only based on the food, I’d give the new Court Street Bagels 5 stars, but given the full experience it’s closer to 4.5 stars. At the end of the day, despite the change in ownership, the bagels are still some of the best in the city.“

“Essa is my new go to when it comes to sending a taste of New York as a thank you. All 3 of my orders arrived quickly, were fresh as can be and got rave reviews from Oklahoma, California and Kansas. The flavored cream cheese in particular was mentioned as amazing. Thank you Essa Bagel and thanks also to Goldbelly for spreading good food and good cheer!“

“10/10! Comforting atmosphere, fresh food! I had the garlic bagel toasted with spinach, cream cheese with bacon and a roll with bacon egg and cheese. I also had a mocha ice coffee which was definitely made with love! The best was the stuffed bagel which was loaded with cream cheese, cheddar and swiss cheese, butter garlic, bacon and a fried egg!!! A huge thank you to Mudy, the owner, for his hospitality! Since it was my first time here a French toast muffin made in house was given to me as a courtesy. Which was very kind! The muffin was so moist, had great flavor, the texture of the muffin top was light and crisp as well! This bagel shop has amazing prices! With everything being so expensive in this economy they are definitely reasonable. Def a must try! NOT A LOCAL TO LODI? MONTVILLE LOCATION OPENING IN OCT 2026. It’s worth the drive!!!!!“

“I stopped in on a whim because I was in the neighborhood. I got 4 bagels for the family and the veggie cream cheese. Fresh, excellent top-tier bagels! Black Russian and Egg! Plain! All delicious. We're all lucky in NJ that most bagels we can get are at least okay, but these were a cut above! And the cream cheese was delicious and fresh - vegetables still had a little crunch!

Also, I appreciate that they discourage people coming in and just buying up all the bagels. In the 5 minutes I was in there, lots of people popped in, clearly regulars, for their breakfast. It definitely felt like a go-to place in the community and they make sure they can be open to serve as many as possible. That's cool. I look forward to returning!“

“Bagel House always delivers excellent service and delicious food! The team is friendly, efficient, and makes you feel welcome the moment you walk in. Their bagels are fresh, flavorful, and perfectly made — whether it’s breakfast or lunch, you can always count on a great meal. It’s a go-to spot we truly enjoy and highly recommend!“

“So happy with our experience here, friendly counter staff, pleasantly surprised also that we easily got indoor seating on a Sunday around lunch time. Place was clean and lots of natural light. I had the “Leonardo” bagel on a gluten-free everything bagel, it was delicious!“

“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!“

“The bagels are amazing. The only downside is that there’s no seating, and it can get really crowded, so the service can be a little slow at times.

But the bagels are absolutely worth it. I’d definitely come back and highly recommend it!“

“We come here every time we’re in NY to eat breakfast. Then come back to get a couple dozen to take home. My fiancé is from Long Island born and raised but we always drive to Brooklyn because the food and service are that good! Cool neighborhood as well.“

“Thank you Brooklyn Bagel for an amazing luncheon after my son’s Bar Mitzvah!! You were so easy to work with and everything was so good! I highly recommend your catering services!!“

“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!“

“The most delicious bagel I have ever eaten! Cream cheese with pistachios and raisins. Thank you!“

“There really isn’t much more to be said about this place. Having tried pretty much every whole wheat and multigrain bagel within a 15-mile radius, no one does it better.

The bagels are always fresh, but what really stands out is the service. I usually call ahead and ask if they have any whole wheat bagels left, and they are always kind enough to put some aside for me. One time, I picked up my order right before they were closing, and when I got home, I noticed they had thrown in an extra bagel. For them, it might have just been an extra bagel at the end of the day since they make everything fresh daily, but for a customer, that kind of service really means something.

It’s the little things like that that keep people coming back. I don’t get to visit as often as I’d like because it’s a bit far from my house, but honestly, if you want the best whole wheat or multigrain bagels, I’m not kidding—no one does it better. The service, the bagels, everything about this place is just great.“

“Traveled 1300 miles and tried 12 top bagel spots in manhattan . None came close to 34th
Great Atmosphere, no tourist tax or price gouging just high quality bagels , sandwiches & coffee’s with friendly faces !!
IMO the spot to go in manhattan !“

“Ordered online and picked it up. There’s no seating, so you’ll be eating outside, but it’s a great option if you’re looking for a quick and delicious breakfast while walking around or spending some time in SoHo. Definitely recommend it. 9/10.“

“I got a bagel with cream cheese and bagel with eith cream cheese and tomato. The bagel was so crispy and toasted on the outside suprisingly light i would say. Tge cream chese was actually silky and saucy i would say. Following that the vibe was great there is always a line you can sit outside on the bunch or inside too. They do give freshly pressed orage juice. One of the must go to spot. So dont miss it“
