Bagels Restaurants near Scotch Plains, NJ

“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!“

“This place is everything you hope for in a hometown bagel shop: great food and genuinely warm service. Joe, the owner, is there every day and somehow knows everyone by name—it really feels like a community staple. When we first moved to the area, I made it a point to try every bagel shop nearby, and these are hands down the best. The bagels are consistently excellent, the breakfast sandwiches are fantastic, and there are plenty of solid lunch options too. My personal favorite is the Nova cream cheese sandwich. It’s become a family tradition for us to come every Saturday morning for fresh bagels, and they even freeze well for weekday breakfasts (which is surprisingly hard to find). Can’t recommend this place enough“

“The Food is Great Always Freshly Prepared. Good Coffee. There is a Good Selection of Food on the Menu. Excellent Pancakes/ Omelettes. Salads /Sandwiches are Good also. Fresh Fruit Salads n Fresh Squeezed All Natural Juices and Smoothies.“

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

“Everything was super fresh and so delicious! Bagels r too good. I love supporting local businesses so I’ll be sure to go there again.

“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“

“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.“

“Clean workers . And nice service“

“Great spot! Awesome food!“

“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.“

“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!“

“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!“

“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.“

“it's a cool treat for my colleagues“

“Bagel Cafe NJ just catered breakfast and lunch for my daughter's bridal party, wedding day preparations. Food was fresh and delicious, delivered on time, and they were super easy to work with. Highest recommendation 😍“

“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“

“Just wanted to say as a native Staten Islander, and having moved to Florida every time I come here and visit I always come and get bagels at Mikey Bagels. We bring them back to Florida as they are the best. I just left the bagel store the staff and owner were wonderful. There bagels are delicious. I will always make this a staple when I stop here to visit to take back home.“

“Amazing! Young lady was so welcoming not sure if I got her name right! Amber? Very sweet and polite and food is amazing too!“

“Best bagels in New Brunswick. I've been patronizing since they moved to their current location in September of 1998. Not much has changed since then, which is a great thing considering the development of the surrounding area.

Some of the lower ratings are subjective. Come in and see for yourself a real gem of Easton Ave. Nicholas is a class act and wonderful reminiscing with. I'll be back, like I always do, when I visit the old stomping grounds.“

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

“Excellent.. Axel, Arelean Nicole all the waiters, waitresses, cooks, incredible staff.. it's like Cheers.. great friendly place great food.. great way to start the day.“

“OMG, This was the best experience. Ordered breakfast for the office and clients. Food arrived hot and orders were correct and a few extras just in case.Just found our regular breakfast spot. Good portion size and great prices! We will definitely be using you again and again. Thank you, thank you, thank you.“

“Always stop in for breakfast when I'm up by Union. Their Bacon egg and cheese plus a coffee taste amazing

Parking: Usually plenty of parking, 2 cars can fit in the front on the street and 5+ in the lot, depends how busy“

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

“I happened to be in the area looking for a quick coffee stop and bagel would be nice. Located in a trip mall.
Handicapped parking in front.
I ordered a plain bagel with butter and coffee. Coffee is self serve.
When you bite into it, it’s chewy and doughy . Don’t expect a NY style bagel.
It’s not crunchy on the outside. When you bite into it, it compresses down into nothing.
The butter is a cross between unsalted and salted.
I chose to make myself a French vanillas coffee. Nothing special about.
It did the job for moment.
Would I go outta of my way to buy from here ? No. Maybe a different bagel choice or sandwich. Idk. If I’m in the area , maybe. This is just my opinion. Try it for yourself. There are tables and chairs inside to sit down. A TV“

“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. ??“

“They are open and ready to serve the community of Westfield.“

“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.“

“The 1- and 2-ratings are not deserving. Always great and fresh bagels. And all the deli items are all superior. When someone writes that they were too busy, there is a reason why they are so busy - because they are great (and nice)!“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“Really awesome bagels! Typical bagel shop / deli fare. I like the variety of bagels - they have everything, egg everything amd 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. 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 good.“

“Best bagel in the Summit area, my ONLY complaint is the music! Too loud and unnecessary. Let people relish their morning with quiet or at least less annoying music.“

“lox w/cc on a croissant and cup of coffee for years❤ best bagels and bialys!“

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

“Best Bagels in the world and great service.“
