Bagels Restaurants near West Orange, NJ

“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!“

“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.“

“This shop is truly amazing. The food is delicious and the portions are generous. They have an impressive selection to choose from. The staff are friendly and attentive. My only regret is that I didn't discover the shop earlier. This is now my go to place.“

“Bagels are gross and stale. Service is great. Good is not the best either. But the people are very nice. [edited 2023] They have the BEST chicken soup here that I have ever had in MY LIFE... and they put those stale bagels to use as Toast Points for the soup... DELICIOUS!!!“

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

“There are tons of bagel places in NJ, but we always find ourselves comparing to House of Bagels. Definitely our favorite bagels - they’re so soft and fluffy on the inside, great crust with plenty of seasoning (our whole family loves everything bagel). What really seals the deal for us is that the bagels freeze and reheat beautifully. They taste almost as good as new. Our kids have them almost every morning 😂 We’ve moved quite far away but always stock up on our favorite bagels whenever we have a reason to be back in the area.“

“Tried this spot today for the first time
I ordered three sandwiches
Turkey, bacon, egg & cheese on a plain bagel: classic

Garlic bagel with pastrami, egg & cheese. They don’t skimp on the pastrami

Turkey sausage, egg & cheese on a croissant.

I found the bagels to be soft enough for my kid which was a big deal for him.

Ordered two iced macchiatos without the sugar which was really good

The lady at the register was sweet and welcoming.

It got busy and they handled it really well, it wasn’t a mad house like some places get.“

“Never had a bad experience there, People friendly. They take care to remember what you order and how you liked it. I think they know probably 90% of the names of their daily customers. Like i said people friendly. It's time to add your name to the list.

Parking: Available all the time

Kid-friendliness: Great atmosphere for kids“

“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!“

“Excelente los desayunos..“

“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.....“

“Clean workers . And nice service“

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

“Food is always on point! Staff are very kind people. I’m here almost every morning!!! You can always tell when a bagel shop cleans their grills by the taste of the food and the food is delicious every single time! Anyone who complains about how busy they are should realize it’s because of how good they are and know when you finally get your food you will love it! See you guys tomorrow morning. Lol“

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

“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“

“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“

“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.

Parking: First 15 min of parking is free on the street but plenty parking in the back! If u r just picking up then no need to pay.“

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

“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.“

“Loved it! Ordered the lamb gyro and falafel and both were delicious.

Falafel seemed to be homemade, great flavor and crunch without being dry.

Lamb Gyro was perfect. Thick warm pita, perfect amount of lettuce, onions, etc. with actual meat (not those frozen shaved cylinders of meat goo) .

Clearly I enjoyed myself, I’m still glowing. If your craving a gyro 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.“

“As long time S&T customers, we've been searching for a replacement, and this is it. As far as I can tell, this is one of the few local bagel places that gets the nice exterior crunch and soft inside :) I'd say maybe the bagels (and the veggie cream cheese) are a notch less good than S&T, but very happy to have found this place.“

“Amazing food and service.“

“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!!!“

“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.“

“A fantastic bagel shop in Lake Hiawatha that I highly recommend to everyone. The quality of their bagels is exceptional, and they offer a wide variety of flavors to choose from. Whether you're a fan of traditional classics or enjoy more unique combinations, this place has something for everyone. The staff is friendly and welcoming, creating a pleasant atmosphere for customers. If you're in the area, don't miss out on this wonderful bagel shop experience.“

“Great sándwiches and good coffee. Everything has great taste. Love it!“

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

“Customer service was great and more importantly the bagel was delicious. I’ll soon find out about other stuff from the menu.“

“Great breakfast bagels, flagels, bialys, and more! Every morning made fresh, savory, and delicious. Food is consistent. Customer service is on point. A family run shop. They treat you with love and respect. Like you’re walking into grandma’s kitchen. Great sense of humor. Best part (besides the great food) is that if you call like 10 min ahead, they’ll have it ready for you when you come in. No wait time! As a Montville resident, I will always be back!“

“It's great place with great people I love the food, fresh and never disappointed“

“I’ve been going to this establishment on and off for quite a few years. I got in just under the wire for the grill to be on and I ordered my sandwich on a bagel and I ordered an additional buttered bagel. Everything was prepared perfectly. Great value, sandwich and service.“

“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!“

“So after being in New Jersey and going to about 8 bagel shops, I guess this is the one. So... I pull up and the first thing you will notice, parking is an issue. Luckily, people are coming and going so it took around 5 minutes to attain a parking spot. From the look of things, there may have been a parking lot in front of thee establishment before but it would seem that they decided to fill the parking lot with outdoor seating. From speaking to a patron, I understand because he told me that he always walks to the place. So on a nice day, I suppose the outdoor seating is great. You go inside and it's a small space and they have a few tables and chairs inside as well.

Inside and I'm in a line. Probably about 8 people ahead of me. I'm already thinking that these bagels must be damn good. Took about 10 minutes until I put my order in. In total I spent about 25 minutes at this spot. As I'm leaving, there are more people in line than when I got there. Just from seeing the bagels, they look soft and fresh. Just happy to have found the place. I get home and the bagels are just as good as they look. This clean bagel shop comes highly recommended and will be back! Great job guys!“

“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.“

“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“

“Good customer service. Good food quality.“

“Really very tasty Bagels & fresh I recommend. I love it. The best Bagel in Newark.“

“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“

“The PRICE is right! Had a whole wheat bagel which was toasted perfectly. Very nice people. Agreed with needing to upgrade but clean nonetheless. Goes to show you don't have to overprice food. Biggest takeaway... they changed gloves with every order.. loved “

““I stumbled upon this bagel spot while heading to a doctor’s appointment, and it quickly became part of my routine every time I’m in the area. The staff is always friendly, the coffee is strong, and the bagels are consistently fresh and delicious!”“

“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. ??“

“Awesome food. Great staff and atmosphere. A hidden gem in the City of Passaic. By the way best Pastrami sandwich I have tasted.“

“This place is a hidden gem. They have hearty portions and everything it just delicious. It’s small and quaint little shop but it feels just like visiting family. The owner and the staff are always so warm and welcoming. They’re just genuine heartfelt people. The bagels are perfect, and the food always hits the spot. Love their breakfast sandwiches. I’ve been there a few times and I’ll definitely be back again.“

“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.“

“This has to be THE BEST. THEEEEEE best bagel shop I've ever been to in my life. Fresh bagels come out regularly, ingredients and fresh, food is flavorful, and great portion sizes! Everything you need :) breakfast sandwiches and lunch paninis are always my favorite here!“

“Ok. So I've seen good and bad reviews. Maybe it's all about what time you go there. I popped my head in this establishment around 6:30am. The bagels were fresh. I'm use to a higher standard of eggs but you can't expect much here. Kind of felt like a truck stop. A good amount of people seem to stop there on their way to work/school. Being what is it, it's decent. Spots like this are all over the place in New Jersey. But like I said, the bagels were fresh. Not a large verity of items to pick from when it comes to drinks, potatoes chips, candy bars, etc. Funny part, they wanted $8 for 3 Snapples. I'm like, what is the exact price for one... It was too early and I was in a rush so I just paid and left. Not a plane that I would recommend.“

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