Bagels Restaurants near Airmont, NY

“Great sandwiches! Friendly and knowledgeable staff!“

“If there were more stars, I'd give them. We are from out of state (formerly from Waldwick) and needed to send a brunch catering to a dear family. Bagel Supreme was professional, sweet, considerate and kind. I called on a Sunday afternoon at 1 PM (about an hour before the store closed) and the owner had his wife call "within the hour." She did and spent time with me on the phone getting the right order to fit my request for the family. Then sent multiple texts to confirm everything throughout the evening. Talk about going ABOVE AND BEYOND! They delivered PROMPTLY as promised the next day and they sent us pictures of the platters to ensure that we saw what was delivered. Greeting cards to mark the occasion with our thoughts HAND WRITTEN were attached. The store would NOT take money until the order was delivered even though I offered to pay in advance. I will absolutely use them in the future for long distance gift giving (who doesn't like food as a gift)? And this will be our very first stop when we are back in town. 1,000% recommend!!!“

“Purchased four breakfast sandwiches and a BLT plus a half dozen bagels. The staff is super friendly and they got the order perfectly right. The bagels are pillowy and delicious. The bacon, egg and cheese was so good the teenager inhaled two in record time. My sausage, egg and cheese was also scrumptious. Would highly recommend.“

“Loved their frozen latte! 🥤“

“Best bagels ive ever had: better than anything in nyc and better than anything else in jersey. Everyone in there hustles and works hard. I kept seeing the team asking for a guy named Byron and he was super on top of everything. That guy is an MVP. Whoever takes the orders on the phone is also a star: always gets the orders right- every detail (and thats hard to come by).

Now i will say, a large part of what i do for a living is making the customer service experience at restaurants better and more efficient. Most restaurant operators will not take advice unsolicited but i wanted to give mine anyway in hopes of maybe one day they will consider some changes:

A lot of times when i come here i see frustrated customers waiting on lines. Lot of old men cutting the lines. Nobody knows where to stand and sometimes multiple lines form. The people waiting to place an order are also in the same line as people waiting to pick up their order. So, i would do a number of things to improve their systems:
1. I would promote ordering ahead for pickup on their website. There are so many great companies they can use which can set up an awesome website for them : my favorite is Figure or Toast.
2. I would modernize everything by having the tickets from their website come in via printers and everything typed out. Would control where the tickets went and set up multiple printers.
3. Would ahve order screens so kitchen staff can see the orders, in the order they come in (with time stamps) and mark them off as they go.
4. I would have a screen so customers can see which orders are “in progress” and which are “finished”. That way orders that are ready, customers can go up to their counter and mention their name. This system also works well if you have delivery drivers in your face a lot.

5. I would have 2 lines set up, divided with standing signs “order here” line and a “pick up “ line.

6.I would also have a worker whose only job would be: manning the register, cleaning up, attending to the lines. I see a lot of the FOh going to the back to get things and add things and that element is not typical in an efficient restaurant system. There should be an expediter who passed things to FOH so they dont have to go to the back and get in people’s way.

I would do more but i know that even a few of these changes would enhance the customer ordering and pickup experience and if done right it could potentially make the workers lives easier once they get used to the new systems.

I know they probably wont do any of this because they are busy and people love them and will put up with the status quo. But i will say one observation: i noticed most customers are of a certain age. Younger generations like and expect efficient ordering processes and dont like to talk to people: they like kiosk ordering and online ordering a lot.

The restaurants i operate do about 90% of their orders on online platforms. Its becoming the norm and i know many customers would appreciate a simpler way to order ahead, and get to go on that shorter “pick up” line.

Just a thought.

But hey, at the end of the day even if Bagel Nosh become more inefficient i would still come back because they truly have the best Bagels and their team hustles, and always gets everything perfect. I applaud the owners for being able to maintain such a strong team and the work culture there is impeccable- nobody is slacking off.

Wishing Bagel Nosh and Team only the best. Best of Bergen every year for a reason!“

“Oh. My. Word. Quite easily the best sandwich I’ve ever had. Treat yourself to El Chapo and thank me later. You won’t regret it. Service was also top notch, but dang! I’ll be thinking about that sandwich for a long time. Can’t wait to come back again! Thank you.“

“This was my first time ordering from this store, and I must say, they exceeded my expectations. The cheese quesadilla, bagel with cream cheese, and muffin were all incredibly delicious. However, there was a minor mistake in my order, and the store associate promptly corrected it. I highly recommend this store to anyone looking for a great dining experience.“

“Absolutely love the sunny and bright atmosphere of this place, all of the workers are super helpful and friendly. The food is amazing too, the muffins are INCREDIBLE. The owners are also super nice! They might just be friends with the whole town!“

“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!“

“This small business is just wonderful. The food is delicious, the bagels and sandwiches are so fresh and tasty and the bagels are large. I purchased here a few times via the TGTG app and purchased bagels and their delicious home made assorted flavor cream cheeses. Additionally, the owner Ernesto and his wife are so genuine, customer service focused and take pride in the products/service they provide to their clients and community. I definitely recommend this bagel shop and more as one of the BEST in NJ and I drive 7 miles from Maywood,NJ to support them while purchasing their outstanding products!!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Thank you, Jessie and crew! The bagels and breakfast sandwiches are DELICIOUS! The wraps and sandwiches are too! You’ve kept me well fed for years on my way to work and AT WORK!“

“A MUST STOP every time I come back to NJ to visit my Mom!“

“The food was great, and the staff was super helpful �“

“They always that pot of fresh coffee ready when u get there and staff is super nice and clean 💜🙏💙🌻🥰💯“

“John's Bagels has the best bagels, sandwiches, coffee and most importantly the best service. Everyone is so kind and friendly that it makes you want to go back again and again and support such a wonderful business with supportive and kind owners. Highly suggest trying out either of their locations in Park Ridge or Woodcliff Lake.“

“Locally owned and in my opinion the best bagel in town. Tremendous variety of options for hot bagel. Fresh made egg sandwiches and platters. The hot dish asst is amazing. I’ve always found them friendly and service is as fast as possible. Tight parking lot but worth it.“

“Thank you John's Famous bagels for providing such a great service to the community during this difficult time! Thank you for staying open and delivering not just bagels, but the necessities we need to feed our families.“

“Excellent food, great service and quick.“

“✅Excellent catering services ✅Delicious wraps ✅Bacon, egg & cheese on a 🥯 or yummy croissant 🥐 simple perfection“

“I love this spot, pass several of bagel shops to come here. The owner is very friendly and dedicated. The bagels are very fresh as well the owner told me they make a batch in the morning and one later in the day where most spots I went to only make in the morning.“

“Great selection of breakfast and lunch options in addition to some hard-to-get grocery items. Friendly staff and they also have a text option allowing you to place your order ahead of time.“

“I was looking for authentic NY bagels, which most sellers don't have.Got lucky at Kathy's Bagels. Just discovered this location, brought home 2 bagels, toasted the 'everything bagel' added butter. Delicious!! Perfect texture and so tasty! Also bought the cheddar bagel, I'm so looking forward to having soon. I was pleasantly surprised with the vast number of foods they offer, from deli to hot prepared meals and more. I highly recommend Kathy's Bagels Cafe & Deli if you're looking for quality food and delicious taste! Very friendly staff, welcoming environment and pleasant experience!“

“Excellent service! Delicious food!“

“Great place for breakfast! Hungry Man sandwich was delicious and fit for someone hungry. Omelette platter is big and tasty. Will come back next time in town!“

“Went in Friday morning for a quick breakfast pickup, in and out in 5 minutes with 3 delicious and fresh breakfast specials. Great customer care and most importantly delicious food. My bill for 3 people was $27 including drinks.

Dietary restrictions: The entire store is strictly Kosher. They have lots of wholewheat, spelt and sour dough options for those dieting.

Kid-friendliness: Great potatoes.

Wheelchair accessibility: No steps to enter“

“The staff are extremely nice and kind. I called from a distance and asked for bagels to be delivered to the local hospital. The staff was very patient and made every effort to get the bagels to the patient.“

“They are the best because they’re the only bagel shop that actually LISTENS to your order. Toasted dark bagel? Done. Extra crispy bacon? Done. Add little butter? Done.

Any other place you go to, they would miss one of the above.

And their bagels are delicious. Not too fluffy, not too thick.“

“Try the 'Quesadilla Guatemalteca' *hint this ain't the mexican quesadilla you're thinking of.Baked fresh daily here is the 'Guatamalan Quesadilla' made of rice flour and cheese. Baked in sheets and served in squares like a cornbread but a lot more interesting.Give it a try and grab a coffee to wash it down for a breakfast treat.“

“Yummy Jersey Bagel Sandwiches! 😋🥯❤️“

“This spot is fire! The owner David is friendly and serves a generous portion! Bagels are fresh and you can’t beat NY for bagels!!! The food is affordable compared to others. The French toast breakfast is so damn good! 5/5 would recommend!“

“I love a good bagel sandwich. A well done Taylor ham and cheese on a toasted everything bagel is my go to. This place makes a great sandwich. I love being able to text my order and get a response when it will be done. I've been ordering from this place for over a year and the food is always ready when they say it will be. In and out in minutes. Great place, nice people, good food.“

“I like this location. For some reason almost every bagel place has terrible feng shui, they make you crowd into a cramped corner and you are in everybody's way while you wait for your order, or you gotta stand amongst the tables with your butt in somebody's face. Not here though! And the bagels are good, obviously.“

“THE BEST place for breakfast 🍳“

“This place is such a gem! I’m really picky and honestly don’t love many places in the area. They are an old school bakery and everything I’ve had has hit the spot. Bagel sandwiches are good too and so is the coffee! Someone in a recent comment said they have a “new” pastry counter. I’ve been going to place for years and they always had pastries and the quality has remained the same. No affiliation to this place, I’m just passionate about decent food and that’s hard to find when you live in Ringwood.“

“Very simple.. The best bagels in this entire area by far !!!“

“Taking off one star because they don’t post their prices you have to go online to see how much things cost. Good local deli. Staff are nice, food is comparable to other NJ delis. Price are a bit higher, but reasonable for northern NJ. There are all of the deli breakfast and lunch type sandwiches, snacks and drinks. In a strip mall so convenient for after Kid classes in an adjacent business.“

“These bagels are rather good water-boiled bagels, but not the best in the area. The staff that works here is wonderful and friendly and they seem to have a great relationship with the regulars. My main gripe was that I didn't get my usual Jersey whollup of cream cheese that I am used to in this part of Jersey. Other than that it was a very pleasant experience.“

“Yummy Jersey Bagel Sandwiches! 😋🥯❤️“

“I've ordered several times from J's Bagels and the food is always delicious and fresh! I recently placed a large order of bagels for my coworkers and was impressed with how quickly they were able to have them ready. Definitely would recommend to anyone in the area!“

“I was not a big fan of bagels but the bagels here changed my mind. Absolutely the best ever.Just enough bite outside and tender inside. Comfortable tables if you want to eat in and the service is great. I will return even though we traveled over a half hour.“

“I love Wally's. They have the best deals, the staff is very friendly and helpful, and the bagels are great.

On a recent visit, a new employee made some rookie mistakes that I brought up to the owner. He addressed the situation right away and more than made up for the only negative experience I've ever had there.

Last week, I ordered ahead to make sure they wouldn't run out of the bagels I wanted, and the person working that morning greeted me with a huge smile and my order all ready to go. He seemed genuinely excited to help me, as the staff always appears to truly enjoy what they do and make customers happy.

Great food and tremendous service make every Wally's location a worthwhile stop.“
