Bagels Restaurants near Montclair, NJ

“Best Ham, Egg & Cheese in Montclair and the friendliest staff to boot!“

“A 8/10 bagel place. Probably in the top 5 of bagel places in North Jersey. I highly recommend anyone new to this area or traveling from other states to check them out. Here is what i ordered:

I got an Asiago Bagel with bacon egg and cheese. The egg was cooked nicely and they are very generous to the portions when it comes to the bacon. The bagel was pretty big, all the flavors complimented each other well and it was very fulfilling. I felt like i got what i paid for.

I also got a panini bacon egg and cheese. The bread was burned, had to scrape off the burned pieces off of the bread, the bacon was alo burnt, it did not have much cheese as well. It was an OKAY panini, but its not worth $9.

Other than the panini, the service is amazing, they are always busy on the weekends so be prepared to stay in line for at least 7-10 minutes.“

“Sunrise bagels is best bagel shop! I have been coming here for over 20 years, and they always have the best bagels. Even though I don’t live as close as I used to, I take a few dozen home and freeze them, and they are so delicious, like I just brought them home! If you are looking for a great bagel, this is the place to go!“

“Food was very good, and the service and also great“

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

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

“Wayne Hot Bagels supplied breakfast for Teacher Appreciation Week and did a fabulous job! They were friendly, courteous, patient and worked with me to find items that fit within the budget. They even personally delivered for us free of charge. They truly were a pleasure to deal with and I would definitely use them again for future events!“

“Some of the highest quality bagels I’ve ever had. Over just a few weeks of knowing about this place, it’s become one of my family’s favorites. We will call each other to ask if anyone wants anything, and it’s always an immediate and excited “yes!” It’s a 20 to 25 minute drive from me, but it’s worth it every time.“

“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!“

“Best bagel spot I have tried in Bergen County! So many unique and delicious bagel options to choose from and the service was excellent. The nice woman who took my order was really knowledgeable and had good recommendations. The owner is very kind and attentive. I will be making this bagel shop my go to spot!“

“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 stopped into Knead a Bagel this morning and had to leave a review because it was honestly one of the best breakfast experiences I’ve had in a long time.

Rima offered to make me a special lox bagel, and wow was it good. I’ve had a lot of lox bagels, but this was genuinely the best one I’ve ever had. Everything was perfectly balanced.. the right amount of lox, cream cheese, and toppings. Nothing was overwhelming and nothing was lacking. Every bite was perfect.

What really stood out, though, was Rima herself. She was so sweet, friendly, and welcoming. You can tell she cares about the food she’s making and the people she’s serving. She completely made my morning and turned a quick breakfast stop into something memorable.

Great food is one thing, but great food made by genuinely kind people is what keeps you coming back. Thank you, Rima, for the amazing bagel and for starting my day off on such a good note. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Unbelievable customer service!! Highly recommend just for that… plus the bagels are the best!!!“

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

“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!“

“Ms Carol not only is the most beautiful woman in the world but she’s the most dedicated soft spoken sweet and reliable worker you can ever come across. Genuine energy and a true care for her customers.
I enjoy being in her presence once a week !

The food is magnificent !!
I got to do a food review for my 60K followers !!!“

“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.....“

“Took a dozen back with us on the plane to Florida. Best bagels I have had in at least 10 years!“

“Good customer service. Good food quality.“

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

“Had a BLT on a sesame bagel and it was delicious. The bagel was fresh, the ingredients were high quality, and everything tasted great. The staff was very friendly, and the shop was spotless and well kept. Definitely a great local spot, I’ll be back!“

“Livingston Bagel catered a lunch on Thursday for 20 people for my Mom #BerniceSturtz 90th Birthday! We had their man Abe as Mr. Everything- chef, set up and clean up. He was professional and charming. A gem. Ask for him by name! He was a two-fisted omelette maker. They were delicious! And appropriately priced. As always-perfect bagels and salads and made to order omelets. Thank you LB and Abe. Judy Sturtz Karp and Bonnie Romberg“

“Excelente los desayunos..“

“I don’t have enough good things to say about this business. I called 5 Brothers from Wisconsin (not knowing anything about delis or restaurants in Lincoln Park, New Jersey—just going by google search) to order a couple trays of food for a memorial service in Lincoln Park which I could not attend. I am so happy my Google search led me to such a professional and helpful business. The two brothers I worked with listened to my situation and understood what I was hoping to provide food-wise, and then they suggested a mixed tray of baked goods and desserts that were perfect. They even sent me photos and a video of the finished trays of goodies after they put them together. And then they delivered. Amazing. Top-notch customer service. I highly recommend this company for food delivery and catering. Good, good people.“

“I found this gem of a spot when visiting family in NJ. This has to be the best I’ve had since becoming celiac 6 years ago. The bakery items are to die for and the bagel breakfast sandwiches are the best ever. I got to stop in this past weekend and got a few goodies to bring home. If you are gluten free and in the are do not pass this place up.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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“

“Located on Millburn Avenue in Short Hills, New Jersey, Bagel Pantry offers breakfast sandwiches and approximately 15 types of bagels and a few other items. The plain bagel was fresh and the cream cheese very high quality. Take out is popular, while others take a break at the 8 or so small tables. The lighting is somewhat dreary, and the ceiling and walls perhaps worn, but the service was pleasant and the prices certainly reasonable.“

“Zeid and his team were great. Everything was made fresh and quick. The store is very clean. The egg bagel with cream cheese was perfect and the right amount of CC. I got a SBEC and it was delicious full of flavor. The portion def filled me up. The daisy muffins were ok. They were a little too greasy to my liking. But all in all would def come back“

“The best bagels..Owners of the deli very nice,with big smile on face ,the food is delicious 😋..Highly recommend to go there“

“Amazing food and service.“

“I had a delicious bacon, egg and cheese with some coffee. Recommended by a friend, and it was exactly what I wanted. A small Mom and Pop deli. I picked up some almond cookies, for later, because I couldn't resist them! Try Florence's for yourself. You won't be disappointed.“

“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.“

“Great Friendly Staff & Owner The Is Always Smiling And Pleasant. The Bagels Are Always Made Fresh Daily And If You Get There Early Hot. The Breakfast Sandwiches Are Always Great On A Bagel, Roll or Crossant. The Coffee Is Always Fresh. Keep Up The Great Work!!!“

“Great fresh bagels. We had an egg on an everything bagel and blueberry bagel and cream cheese. Definitely going there again“

“One of the most consistent bagel places around and it speaks for itself as you can't get in there on the weekends and and weekday mornings as well sometimes it's amazing.
Great service great smiles always consistent bagels non-stop the best around no doubt“

“Review for King Gyro - halal, Little Falls, NJ
If you’re craving bold flavor and late-night satisfaction, King Gyro - halal is a must-visit gem in Little Falls. From the moment you walk in, the staff greets you with genuine warmth and friendly service that makes the experience feel personal and welcoming.

The lamb platter is a standout tender, perfectly spiced, and generously portioned. Pair it with their creamy white sauce and fragrant rice, and you’ve got a meal that punches way above its price point. The chicken tikka platter is equally impressive, with juicy, marinated chunks of chicken that deliver smoky depth and vibrant flavor in every bite. Both dishes offer incredible value without compromising on quality.

🕑 And the best part? They’re open until 2am, making it the perfect spot for a late-night bite that doesn’t feel like a compromise. Whether you’re dining in or grabbing takeout, King Gyro delivers on taste, service, and affordability. Highly recommended for anyone who loves halal comfort food done right.“

“I love their bacon egg sandwich on their onion bagel!! always fresh and taste great!!!!“

“Amazing spot! The man who served me was beyond cool, polite and just a 10/10 kind of guy. Best service!

I ordered some sausage, egg and cheese’s on everything bagels and they were perfect, exactly what I needed to start my morning.

I forgot to ask for the name of the man that served us, but I know he has great tastes in music.“

“A real bagel. Case closed.“

“I just moved to Jersey and saw Bagels by Jarrett on the news and decided to give it a try. My life has changed. It is my order at the end of a hard day. My comfort food. Don’t be fooled by the diverse menu because everything on it is a HIT! I may or may not have shed a tear when the delivery guy got here.“

“I'm so grateful that the original owners are back. I take the train to NY weekly, and get my morning breakfast and sometimes my lunch. Coffee is fresh, many choices for bagels and the fillings. The sandwiches are amazing. More so by the newest worker AJ. His sandwiches are the best and almost looks too good to eat. I was not happy with the previous owner, but I'm glad once again. Thank you Marty, Diana and AJ.“

“We live in Harrison and have spent months trying to find a quality bagel place that also serves a French toast bagel. I’ve been eating Taylor ham egg&cheese on a French toast bagel for 20 years from various places in North Jersey. This morning we ordered from B&B the first time via UberEats and I had what I’m fairly certain is the best French toast bagel I’ve ever had. I’mglad I accidentally ordered 2. This is going to become our go-to for THEC bagels. Thank you!!“

“Breakfast here at least once every week. Have never had a order disappoint.
Chicken Cutlet sandwich, grilled chicken sandwich, grilled cheese, the BLT, bagels with cream cheese, Chicken Florentine wrap, Chicken Pesto wrap, cheeseburger, ALL OF THEM SLAPPP.“

“HANDS DOWN THE BEST BAGEL IN A 25 MILE RADIUS!

The perfect crunchy, chewy outside and the softest most tender crumb. I don't know how they do it but it's the only bagel shop I will go to. Plus the gentleman behind the counter is always nice and professional. MUST STOP BAGEL SPOT“

“This is one of my favorite food places. The bakery goods are fantastic. Bagels are made on premises and if you get lucky, you can get them fresh out of the oven.

Though not high end dining, this restaurant checks the boxes. Food is excellent. Staff is friendly and helpful. It is not fair to rate the atmosphere on the same plane as the other two. It’s not fancy but quite functional. Especially since it’s usually utilized as a take out place. Most of the time, I’m passing through. I phone in my order and pick it up shortly after. BTW, the tuna and chicken salads are to die for. Maybe the best I’ve ever had. The egg salad is no slouch either.“

“Great breakfast! Had the pork roll egg and cheese“

“A while back, I started what seemed to be a bagel war on Facebook about another bagel shop in town 😂😂😂 Well, a lot of people in the comments told me to try International Hot Bagels… and yeah, they were right!
The bagels are so much better… fresh, hot and delicious! The service was great, the food was great, and the prices were actually reasonable (which is rare these days). I’ve ordered a couple of times now & I’ve been highly satisfied.
10/10 recommend! Go give them a try.
Pro tip: they only accept cash or Zelle…
This spot earned the hype 👏🥯“
