Bagels Restaurants near Old Bridge, NJ

“I love this place, but I do have one complaint. Every time I get a pork roll egg and cheese, they barely put any pork roll. I’ve am willing to pay extra every time. The times that I have they either don’t put any extra on, or when they do it barely looks like a normal amount. Don’t get me wrong it taste delicious, but when you barely taste what you ask for…it’s annoying. Other than that this place is awesome.“

“Love this place! Bagels are fresh & delicious! Coffee is hot and love the offered flavors.

Also, the guys in here are sooooooo nice! Caring, attentive & fast!
LOVE Bagel Talk!

50% off a dozen bagels after 3!“

“I cant even begin to describe how utterly satisfied I am with the service I was given at this Dunkin location. As I entered the drive thru, even just the atmosphere gave me a euphoric feeling, like the bright energies of the workers were reaching me through the building. They took my order very efficiently and were very very nice to me, since I am not speaking English very good. I speak Spanish and the worker, I’m not sure of his name, he had glasses on and a nice smile it might have been Haroon if I saw the name tag correctly. He assisted me with amazing Spanish language that he learned in school, which even though it wasn’t perfect, it still the effort that counts. Anyways, he made my drink which tasted so incredible and delicious that I cant wait to come again tomorrow to try it again. This is an amazing location and I look forward to coming here!“

“Just because it’s shaped like a bagel doesn’t make it a bagel. I am there every Wednesday morning where I buy 8 bagels. From the glass you can see the giant vat in the back where they ACTUALLY boil their bagels which is the correct way to make a bagel and not just round dough in the shape of a bagel. These bagels are the best bagels I’ve ever had in New Jersey since moving from New York. The woman behind the counter is always so nice. Their bagels for the quality are well priced. I have plenty of bagel spots around where I live but I drive a few extra miles to this place.“

“Great service great food excellent customer service“

“Only place that makes fresh delicious bialys. Bagels are good too!“

“Great bagels!!!! Great service too!!“

“Everything is delicious.“

“Wow! From the first time I took a bite out of the mix dozen bagels I bought I knew I have found the perfect bagel. Great staff, clean and a delicious variety of coffee.“

“We stopped by our cousins bagel shop today for the first time. Incredibly delicious light and airy Bagels. The Calabria, rosemary olive oil?and jalapeño bagels are to die for. Best of luck in the store. My suggestion is that everyone go there and try some.“

“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!“

“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“

“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.“

“Price was great. Service was awesome. Taste of the food was excellent. Highly recommend.“

“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.“

“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 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!“

“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.“

“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!“

“This place is awesome. Take it from someone who grew up in Brooklyn around the corner from Bell Bialy and Hot bagels. Heartland 2 are just as good and made the same old authentic way. 👍“

“⭐️ 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!“

“Ok so for one, be ready to pay like 20% more because this is a mom and pop and they don’t have economies of scale like fast food does. But if you want a Time Machine back to a time when diners were diners and brand names weren’t everything, then come here! The lady was so nice , I asked if they give their delicious macaroni salad with anything that is bought, but it was only with some items from the menu. But I ordered a veggie quesadilla (off menu) and she gave me a cup of the macaroni salad! Just out of the kindness of her heart. And the food was ACTUALLY really really good!

Come here if you reminisce of a time when service and good quality food mattered.

High praises! Please keep up the good work and I’m happy to have you as a local food stop for the community!“

“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!“

“I went for the first time today and ordered bagels, tuna salad, egg salad, white fish salad and lox. Every item was amazing! The bagels were the best I have had in a very long time! The staff was so friendly and it seems that it is a family business. Support family run local places you won't be disappointed. Thank you for the great service and food.“

“Soooo good! 😋 one day when I am braver I will come back to get the hot Cheeto bagel! 🥯 We need one in OB!“

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

“Variety of delish food and sandwiches“

“The bagels are always fresh and coldcuts as well Nice clean bagel store . I wish they had more hours so I can go more often .“

“By far best bagel in the area. Would give 5 stars but knocked off one for the customer service. The two ladies there working had zero personality and seemed like they just hate life. I got maybe 3 words out of the lady. All I got was a “Next” when it was my turn to order, didn’t even ask me what I wanted and then I was told the price and got no response to me saying thank you and have a good day. I came in the store saying good morning and thank you after I placed my order so I don’t get the lack of common courtesy and simple conversation. Would I go back….I would for the delicious bagel, but if I get that kind of interaction again it might not be worth it after that.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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!“

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

“first time customer today. and surely not the last time I'll be going. great bagels for a great price of quality food. staff is extremely friendly. if you like mini bagels this is the spot!“

“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“

“$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.“

“great bagels, friendly staff and community geared company that's always giving back“

“Very welcoming and warm owner! It was my first time here, I was visiting my aunt in the area with my sister and randomly came across this bagel spot. We ordered a mini bagel with strawberry cream cheese… and guess what? Only $2!!! Honestly where can you even find that nowadays with inflation?
On top of that, he was incredibly kind and even gave us a huge bag of assorted bagels. Such a sweet gesture. Super nice experience overall🥰please please highly recommend this spot!“

“I always look for bagel places when I am roaming the state of NJ. There is good parking out front of the store. Getting in and out from the highway is a bit tricky. I went at lunchtime so it was not super busy. Odd setup inside makes it hard to order. Service was good. The bagel was very good.“

“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“

“I Love FastBagel Always so Fresh and Delicious. Love getting Breakfast as well as Lunch The Staff Always sooo friendly. My total Favorite. Noelle“

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

“greate food , good place and people“

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

“Yummy coffee and very kind staff. Highly recommend“

“Excellent bagels, great portions for reasonable prices. Ample seating inside with some groceries available for purchase. Friendly staff, too!“

“Five star all the way .. Grilled chicken mozzarella, roasted peppers and mushrooms on a wrap , Toast toast .. Top shelf n one of the best .. Sign out in front with a big fruit salad on it .. Asked for a small fruit salad , she said that was only for catering , I was like OK no big deal .. When she brought my food out, There was a small salad on my plate .. she went out of her way to give me a small food salad anyway .. That’s going out of your way to please your customer .. 🙏🏻 For the people that don’t know n never ran a business , It’s hard ! On top of dealing with the public, but the high cost of product today . They are there to make a profit to continue doing good and being available for us If you got a problem, go see the manager ! Don’t blast them so fast and hurt their business .. If you took care of it the right way they would’ve given your money back and apologized .. I’m sure .. Your feedback in person will make them a better place .. The government makes our life hard enough to live .. Be a solution, not a problem ..“

“Annadale Bagels serves very good bagels with excellent service - both are the highlights here. Unfortunately, the atmosphere is poor and doesn't match the quality of the food and staff. Great for takeout, but don't expect much if dining in.“

“Great customer service..!! Excellent food.!! Had chicken sandwich coffee and a bagel. Everything was great 👍🏻 Highly recommended.“

“I really enjoyed grabbing breakfast here. The bagels are super fresh and come out warm, which makes such a big difference in the morning. They have a huge selection of cream cheeses and sandwich options, so it’s easy to find something you like. The staff was quick and kept everything moving, even when it got a little busy.“

“People are writing some misleading things about page deli. There has never been a manager who smokes outside. There has never been any instance of food poisoning etc. place is busy during breakfast. They have the best layout, coffee area, variety of snacks and amazing bagels.“
