“The best bagels in BK!“

“Ok, maybe I shouldn’t have picked marathon Sunday to finally hit up Frankel’s—it was packed! But what a great spot. I love their creative breakfast sandwich options, and the vibe was pure NYC energy. I got the pastrami, egg, and cheese on a challah bun, and it was exceptional. Perfectly balanced, rich, and just messy enough in the best way. 10 out of 10. I’ll definitely be back.“

“親切な接客と美味しいベーグル“

“We stumbled upon this deli on Maps, and we are very happy we did! We tried a cream cheese and lox bagel, a Times Square sandwich and a Caprese Panini, all of them delicious!!! The staff was very nice and welcoming to us, they even suggested a few things to try - thank you Mikey for making our amazing food 💗

Will come back again :)“

“We come here every time we’re in NY to eat breakfast. Then come back to get a couple dozen to take home. My fiancé is from Long Island born and raised but we always drive to Brooklyn because the food and service are that good! Cool neighborhood as well.“

“Bacon Sausage egg & cheese wrap AWESOMEEEEEEEE (Extra ketchup)“

“Quintessentially Brooklyn. The crew here is incredibly friendly and fosters a warm, cheerful environment to enjoy the bagels, wraps, coffee and more that they serve. The food rarely disappoints. Such a benefit to our community — they clearly care about the wellbeing of our neighborhood and take pride in their work.“

“Fantastic bagels! Would love to come back and try their sandwiches and hot food. All of it looks delish! Great service too.“

“Came down from Canada and stopped for breakfast. Immediately bought bagels to cram into my luggage and bring home.

I got the lox avocado on everything. It was wonderful.

Very nice to be able to eat inside the restaurant, plenty of seating.“

“One of my biggest things I do is when I go out of town is I always look for something local. And right next-door where I was going to be was my favorite bagel. I figured I’ll go get a bagel and a drink. Well I walked in there, and there was all different types of pizza there there was a salad bar on the other side and then there was a bakery got a piece of pizza. I don’t know what kind it was but let me tell you something from where I am in New York this was nothing like it. The pizza was out of this world. I give it five stars or even 10 stars if I could really good food definitely will go back again.“

“Proof that the best bagels and in the city really do exist outside of Manhattan. Came here yesterday morning for the first time at it felt so nostalgic to be in a classic NY bagel shop. Staff was kind and enthusiastic and my bagel sandwich was great.“

“This place is wonderful! The owner and staff are extremely helpful and friendly. The food is great. I can't say enough positive things about Metro Bagel & Cafe!!“

“We stumbled upon this place and so glad. It was packed but didn't have to wait too long. We had the healthy Choice bagel sandwich on pumpernickel. It was spot on. Shared it. Each had a coffee too. Would totally return. Typical NYC bagel sandwich prices. Fun vibe too.“

“AWwsome Begel ,great place .. we are out of town or‘s and we were looking for a authentic bagel place and you hit the mark it was amazing when we get back here we will check you out again the staff was wonderful very friendly and helpful our bellies were happy😁“

“I’ve been coming here on and off for probably close to 25 years. It’s definitely one of the best, if not the best breakfast spot in the neighborhood. The prices are high though and still going up. A bacon, egg and cheese bagel is $7. A raisin bagel with cinnamon cream cheese is $3.75; I think it was $2 just a few years ago.The bagels aren’t the big ones you see in some spots so it’s a quick snack. I can’t justify those prices since my favorite bodega is charging $5 for the bacon, egg and cheese.

The sandwiches are a better value cause you’re getting more than double the food for less than twice the price. I like the “Italian Sub” and “The Russian” for $12. I tried the “Tuna Delight” on a hero today for $10 and it’s more justified than the bagel prices. They charged .50 just to add onions which is kinda lame. Sandwich shops don’t do that unless it’s something like roasted red peppers.

Lastly, they surcharge 3.75% to pay by card. I work in credit card processing so I understand more than most how thin the margins are for a small business. I urge most of my clients to do the same to be more profitable (pass the fees to the customer), but when you’re also charging extra just to add onions it gets to a point where you gotta call out being cheap. Sorry.

It’s still a very good local spot to grab a bite. The place is packed even at 6:30 am. The pictures are the Italian Sub, bacon egg and cheese on a bagel, raisin bagel, and the Tuna Delight.“

“Topping I liked the most was the tomato. They somehow got the tomato to be savory and taste/feel like an egg. Coming in second is the smoked salmon. I wouldn’t get the white fish since it’s too salty.

The place was spacious and the line moved quickly for a Sunday morning.

We went to this bagel place twice this trip just for that tomato. The first time the bagel was perfectly crispy, second time less so. I’d ask them to brown it a little more next time“

“Good small local shop. Nice place to come by and grab breakfast.

The food is pretty good but service can be a little slow if you are in a hurry because busy crow in the morning. While the crow also keeps the vibe up. Overall good bagel shop.“

“Took Italian hero sub before a party.
Fresh and loaded, decent price, i like to eat a lot, and I gobbled a half before the party and was good to go. I went savage after the party for the second half of my hero sub.
All you can ask from a place like that“

“The bagels are absolutely delicious — a true 5-star experience when it comes to taste. But the ordering system is baffling. They take your order and then… that’s it. No payment. You’re left awkwardly lingering around in a cramped space until your food is ready — and only then are you allowed to pay. It’s inefficient, disorganized, and a waste of time for every single customer. This setup might work in a massive café, but in a tiny shop like this, it just causes crowding, confusion, and frustration. Amazing food, yes — but the process seriously needs a rethink. ¯\\_(ツ)_/¯“

“Fantastic gluten-free bagels! Literally the best I've had. Great spreads: horseradish cream cheese and scallion cream cheese also the best I've even had. Ordered delivery and bagels arrived nice & hot & toasty.
Now I'm back home in Los Angeles after this work trip with my boss, and both of us crave these fine GF bagels.“

“Absolutely fantastic deli! The selection of meats and cheeses is top-notch, and everything is incredibly fresh. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, always ready to help with recommendations. I loved the house-made sandwiches; they’re packed with flavor and made to order. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it a great spot to grab a bite. Highly recommend for anyone craving quality deli fare!“

“I got the Italian on a hero and oh my God this is one of the best sandwiches in Brooklyn that I’ve ever had. I also got a dozen bagels and my family loves them. They’re so fresh and you can tell that they were hand rolled and baked this morning. you have to try their fresh cream cheese especially the chocolate chip . workers are very nice and has that southern Brooklyn charm. Price is very reasonable and the place is super clean. I will definitely be coming back!!!!!“

“I don’t live anywhere near here but whenever I am around and I gave time to stop, I stop and have a bit here at SHM Bagel & Coffee Shop.

What I like most about it, is the food. I feel like my mom, dad or one of my Aunties made it and I feel like I’m with them chillin’ and eating. It brings back memories.

Besides that, the owner is kind and friendly and so are the workers. This place if clean and smells clean. It’s a spot where there’s no real fanfare but I like that because, once inside, you have some chairs, a few tables and a two stool window seat option. However, there is a long radiator there so, if you sit to the side, things will work out for you eating over there.

They have a nice assortment of cold beverages and food options. Again, the place is clean and I feel confident eating here.

Great job and thank you, SHM B&CS!!“

“good bagels, and the wait isn’t too bad (faster than bagel pub during rush hours) however some of the prices make me see stars, 18$ for a lox bagel feels like a bit much, but probably on par for the neighborhood? either way good bagels & the staff are great.“

“Amazing bagels good quality ingredients you know by the first bite
Great service
I’m not a fan of the kiosk but thats the world we live but a person can take your order as well
There very nice people I like to have a conversation with a human being not push buttons in a screen
Love this place“

“We stopped for sandwiches. Amazing!!! It's kinda an art to make a sandwich correctly, the blend of everything should be the right way. Bagels were very fresh and tasty and all the chosen items were assembled in the correct amounts, which made the sandwiches taste phenomenal!
Service was courteous. Thank you! We'll definitely be back!“

“As good as it gets when it comes to breakfast and lunch deli food. My absolute go-to. Everything is fresh, high quality, and put together with great service. The place is immaculately clean and has a huge variety of sandwich/wrap/platter/salad options even beyond bagels, which are great. Can’t say enough good things about this place and the staff.“

“The store is located in the Gravesend section of Brooklyn. They prepare various breakfast items including sandwiches, omelets and pancakes. Hamburgers, salads, wraps and beverages are available. They sell bagels, muffins, croissants and cold cuts. I ordered the egg salad and tuna salad. The tuna salad was well-prepared and tasty.“

“The cookies I had were great. loved the red velvet cookie. I have to taste sweet potato cheesecake asap.“

“The deli was very clean and the smells of the food were amazing. The bacon egg and cheese with scallion cream cheese will be a breakfast essential. Staff were absolutely wonderful and polite. Service was quick and food presentation was amazing. And to top it off, they asked if I wanted my muffin toasted with butter and I was blown away! They must be used as an example of excellence!“

“The line was long — and now I know why. The bagels are fresh, hot, and absolutely delicious. The bacon, egg, and cheese is the best I’ve had anywhere, perfectly balanced and made to order. Even with the crowd, the staff kept things moving and stayed friendly. Totally worth the wait and definitely my new favorite bagel spot. Bring cash!“

“Our group chose this restaurant twice when deciding where to meet. Every meal I've had here was enjoyable. A clean restaurant with charming elements. Workers here balance helpful service with sincere friendliness. The restaurant's location is perfect and we experienced good service throughout.“

“Always stop here when i visit my mom! A bakers dozen of everything to go and one sesame bagel with whitefish salad and tomato to eat immediately! even if i just ate or am not really hungry lol.

Bagels are nice and hard on the outside and chewy on the inside. It almost like they are toasted but they are not. They are a good size. The whitefish salad is slightly sweet to me but I like it.

Price is comparable to other bagel places in Brooklyn.“

“incredibly delicious. this place has competition in the area but the food does not. You can never drive past without seeing a line you should also never drive past without stopping to treating yourself.. highly recommended often imitated never duplicated..“

“Very good bagels but a bit overpriced like every bagel place in nyc.
I ordered everything bagel and lox cream cheese for $7 because adding lox would have been way too expensive so the cream cheese is a good alternative and the taste is quite strong.
Service was very good.
There are a few sits in front of the shop but no interior sitting available.“

“I will honestly say that this place is so welcoming even though it’s busy. Like I always say local businesses are always great.Very hard working staff and honestly always have the right order. This place is clean , fast , and competent.Keep up the great work ??“

“Best pastrami Sammie around“

“I've tried these at different times of the day and week:
Turkey club wrap, egg bacon and cheese, cinnamon raisins bagel with walnut cream cheese, ham and American cheese on a poppy seed bagel. I have to say this is one of the best spots in Bay Ridge.“

“Just came in to rest my feet and get out of the cold and so pleased I did. Quiet and peaceful, great prices, lots of choice and very personable service. The cream cheese bagel was really cheap but tasted gorgeous. The sort that makes your feet tingle. Thanks to my friendly server too.“

“Best bagels at the beach! Ate them everyday on our trip and brought a bag home. Great prices too.“

“The bagels are really good. I grew up out of NY. We had bagels we thought were good. Then I came to NY and realized what bagels were supposed to taste like. Bagel Hole bagels are top notch. Of the best kosher bagels in NY. The sandwiches are good, service is slow and that could be due to demand and they need to focus on consistently cleaning the restaurant. They improve their speed and clean consistently, I change my rating to a 5.“

“Let’s start with the manager, Eli, the most wonderful guy, and his partner the guy working in the store,

Truth is, I came in all the way from New Jersey to get a shakshukah at Brooklyn Bagel, I wish I was able to find in new Jersey such a good shakshukah, and by far. It was worth the trip.

This place is awesome, and worth a trip from literally anywhere.

Keep it up and good luck

P.S. try Try the shakshukah.“

“Lovely place with great food. I had the bacon cheeseburger and it was cooked perfectly.

The service was great too. They are very friendly and attentive to their customers. Food was gone before I realized I should take a picture“

“The store is located in the Bay Ridge section of Brooklyn. They sell soups, salads, sandwiches, wraps, paninis, breakfast platters, breakfast specials, bagels and beverages. They have several spaces for dining in but no servers are available. The food was well-prepared.“

“Edith’s is right around the corner from my hair stylist, so I always treat myself after an appointment. The food is so good; I always try to get something new. My most recent visit, Lyla steered me toward the Turkey Hoagie, and it’s my new favorite sandwich. Thank you, Lyla!“

“This bagel shop is hands down one of the best food discoveries I’ve made in a long time. From the moment you walk in, there’s an energy that makes you feel both welcomed and excited. The warm aroma of freshly baked bagels fills the air, and the space itself feels cozy and inviting, with bright lights that give it a cheerful, welcoming glow. It’s the kind of place that instantly makes you feel at home, whether you’re grabbing something to go or settling in for a quiet bite.

What sets this shop apart is the craftsmanship. The bagels have that elusive balance that only true bagel masters can achieve: a beautiful glossy crust that crackles ever so slightly when you bite in, and a soft, chewy interior that’s both hearty and satisfying. You can tell immediately these are made with care and pride.

The variety is outstanding — they’ve mastered the classics like sesame, everything, and plain, but also offer creative options that make you want to come back and try them all. And while every bagel here is worth ordering, I have to rave about my personal favorite: the pastrami lox with scallion cream cheese. It’s an absolute game-changer. The lox itself is smoky, rich, and layered with incredible pastrami spices that elevate it far beyond the traditional. Paired with the cool, tangy scallion cream cheese, it’s the perfect marriage of flavors — indulgent yet balanced, and unforgettable.

I even placed a catering order recently, and it was a huge hit. Everything was beautifully packaged, fresh, and delivered with the same care you get in-store. My guests couldn’t stop talking about the quality of the bagels and spreads — it made the entire event feel extra special.

Beyond the food, the staff make the experience even better. They’re genuinely friendly, attentive, and passionate about what they serve. They’ll chat with you about their favorite combos, make great recommendations, and always make you feel like a valued guest — whether it’s your first visit or your fiftieth.

In a city full of bagels, this place stands out as something truly exceptional. Between the cozy, light-filled atmosphere, the unforgettable flavors, and the welcoming team, it’s the kind of spot that reminds you why a great bagel is more than just breakfast — it’s comfort, community, and craft all rolled into one. I’ve already started recommending it to friends, and I’ll be back again (and again) for that pastrami lox with scallion cream cheese.“

“I would recommend this spot because I love the bagels and they are very delicious I recommend.“
