“Quick stop to purchase some bagels.Small but sufficient and orderly parking lot. Friendly service and good selection of bagels. They even had a jalapeno bagel. There was a sign for spinach bagel but sadly none made today. 6 bagels = $7
Will be back again.“

“Love it all!great costumer service and the bowls were super fresh and delicious! Definitely be back for more 🤗awesome variety on their menu“

“These bagels were, in fact, amazing! I couldn't decide and went for the sesame. Both sides were covered, so bonus if you're like me and eat a bagel half at a time. I also got the veggie cream cheese. Delicious. Maybe less stuff mixed in, but great flavor. The apple turnover was also delicious. A good amount of filling and not too messy, but still flaky.

We stopped by around 9AM, so everything was still fresh. My only regret is i didn't get an extra bagel to go. I'll be back.“

“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“

“Now that Fanwood Bagel wants to go boojie, this will be my new go-to bagel place.“

“I don’t typically leave reviews, but this place is great. I am in town for business and have heard a lot about “New Jersey bagels”. Not only did I receive a fantastic bacon egg & cheese but the gentleman behind the counter separates this place from others. He could tell I was in a bit of a rush and was conscious of my time while still delivering the quality that people talk about. I highly recommend this place and look forward to coming back.“

“One of the best bagel places in town. Here for $10, I can actually get cream cheese and a good serving of lox on a bagel, and even add onion and tomato on it. Normally, I'd have to go to NYC or make it myself to get a good cream cheese and lox. Also, based on one of the other reviews, I tried the Fat Marlena. Great breakfast or brunch wrap if you want something filling and not greasy. If you want something lightly sweet to take home, their French Toast bagels are great toasted with butter. (we had them with some maple butter on hand from a farmers market, and it was a-maz-ing!) Not in the mood for a bagel today? They have tons of other great breakfast options all under $10!“

“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.“

“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!“

“Slightly chewy delicious Bagels with crackly crust, generously sized.“

“First time getting a famous NJ/NY bagel and it didn’t disappoint. My friends and I were blown away by the freshness and thiccness of every bagel. The shop owner and worker were both accommodating to all of my questions even though we walked in close to closing time. Definitely coming back next time we’re in town!“

“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!“

“⭐️ 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!“

“it's a cool treat for my colleagues“

“Attention Bagel Bazaar Milltown customers I found Hector!! Hes at the former crazy bagels east brunswick next to the bakery and not only are the bagels delicious as they should be he made me breakfast this morning and as usual perfect. He seems the only person I know that listens when someone wants fried soft eggs Thumanns ham sliced thin with cheese on a buttered bagel absolutely delicious. Im so happy they brought him back and you gotta go seem him you won't be disappointed. Ill be going back daily. Thank you to the owner 🙏 😊 ☺️“

“Mikey Bagels never disappoints! Bagels are fresh, chewy, and perfectly boiled — everything and sesame were both excellent. Cream cheese is generous and tasty. Service is lightning fast and super friendly, even at 7 AM. The place has that classic NYC bagel shop energy — love it. My go-to spot!“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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!“

“Best pocket friendly breakfast sandwich in town!! The coffee cake is like nothing you've ever had before! Moist and gooey and compliments perfectly with an iced coffee. Nice amount of seating, easy to find location and decent parking. Friendly staff and nice portion for your buck. ??“

“Variety of delish food and sandwiches“

“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!“

“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“

“Wonderful owners and staff ! We all go here every day- it’s our “go to” store- a local family small business. Love this place.“

“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.“

“I love their bagels and sandwiches. I used to religiously go to Rahway Bagels until this place opened. Their bagels taste just as good without the long waits and doesn’t run out of the most popular choices. I’ve always had great service & good bagels from here. It’s my new go-to spot.“

“Really awesome bagels! Typical bagel shop / deli fare. I like the variety of bagels - they have everything, egg everything and 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. It looks like some reviewers have complained about the staff, but the staff always welcome us when we walk in the door, they are kind, friendly and joke around with us. You cant ask for better! 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 tasty.“

“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“

“What an amazing gem of a place! They have something for everyone - such an expansive menu. The food was hot, fresh, and delicious, and they can even accommodate those sensitive to gluten. Will definitely be back!“

“Very small bagel store, no frill interior. I believe they have a couple small tables at most and a wall hung flat panel. Tables may have been removed during peak COVID. Parking is pretty decent, I can typically get a parking spot without issue. Some bagel varieties do run out quite early in the morning. Typically everything bagel, salt, egg, wheat, blueberry are available later in the day. I do feel these bagels are some of the best in the immediate area, not bready, with enough chewy and crispy parts and moist. They have basic variety of bagel flavor selection but not a huge variety. Bagels have always been spot on consistent. Friendly staff and typically quick service.“

“greate food , good place and people“

“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“

“Yummy coffee and very kind staff. Highly recommend“
