I really want to love Black Seed Bagels – Bushwick, because the managers and staff I’ve interacted with have genuinely been kind. That said, I feel compelled to leave this review because there have been repeated and concerning inconsistencies with gluten-free labeling on delivery orders.

On at least three separate occasions, either I or my husband have ordered nearly identical items — Boca bagels — with one clearly marked gluten-free and the other regular. Despite this, the orders have arrived unlabeled, making it impossible to safely determine which bagel is gluten-free and which is not. When you’re dealing with an allergy or medical dietary restriction, this isn’t a small oversight — it’s a serious issue. They tell me that the GF bagels are “significantly smaller” than the regular, but that just hasn’t been my experience when I’ve received correct orders in the past.

I appreciate the kindness of the management, but consistency and accuracy around allergens are critical, especially when orders are placed through Seamless or Uber Eats where there’s no in-person clarification.

If you are ordering from here and have a gluten allergy or sensitivity, I strongly recommend calling the restaurant directly to confirm labeling before eating. I hope this feedback helps improve their systems, because the food is good — but safety and trust matter more. And sadly, they have lost my trust.

I will say this is the best bagel place in Bushwick. The cold brew is good and not bitter like a lot of other places.

Danny is so sweet! I got an everything bagel with avocado and bacon (toasted). It’s simple but so good here and not burnt like other places.

Absolutely LOVED the iced chai with oat milk prepared by Dani who also a great attitude & gave amazing service. I got the sesame bagel with tofu cream cheese & it was very delicious, fresh, fluffy & creamy!! My friend got the sausage egg & cheese on a sesame bagel & that looked sooo delicious! My favorite part about this business is that they are very involved in the community & partner with an awesome non profit organization called the Good Good collective & the bushwick school of arts! Definitely a place I’m happy to patron. Also as soon as you walk in you can tell all the employees enjoy working here & the music is a huge plus!

Yo - Dani and the staff at this particular Black Seed are incredible. Was about to take everything to go but HAD to stay and kii because the vibes were so right. Also the bagels are obvi incredible - hands down the best bagel spot in Bushwick. I got the hot honey cream cheese and it had the perfect ratio of sweetness to scoville units, just the perfect way to start my week <3

The everything bagels and scallion cream cheese truly never disappoint, and the service (shoutout Dani) is really kind and lovely. My go-to in Bushwick!

I ordered my lunch bagel from this place through UberEats. I hadn’t checked the Google reviews beforehand — turns out they’re not great — but since the ratings on UberEats were much better, I decided to give it a try. I ordered an everything bagel with lox and scallion cream cheese (upgraded from the regular).

Unfortunately, the experience was pretty average. The order took quite a while to prepare and deliver, and by the time it arrived, the bagel was cold — even though it seemed like it had been toasted originally. The bagel itself was okay, but the amount of lox was minimal and not of great quality — definitely not the rich, smoky kind you’d expect in New York. There were some capers, tomato, and red onion, but overall it felt very basic and underwhelming.

In a city known for great bagels, this one didn’t quite measure up. I’ve had far better lox and cream cheese bagels elsewhere in NYC, so I probably wouldn’t reorder from here.
