Bagels Restaurants near Forest Hills, NY

“Everything was delicious. We hosted a Purim breakfast at our temple and everyone was so happy and full. I personally put in the order myself and everything from ordering to delivery was so smooth. We ordered large quantity of variety of bagels with all types of cream cheeses, salmon salad, white fish and tuna. Plus we got crepes with ricotta cheese which were Devine. And we ordered lots of croissants 🥐 , plain and chocolate which by the way are huge. I can’t say enough how fresh and delicious everything was. Highly highly recommend this place!!“

“The bagels and coffee are almost always very good. Service is great. When I went recently they weren’t playing any music or had the TV on, a light was flickering, and it was very hot inside with no fan or AC. Hopefully this gets improved as well as the C grade Health Inspection.“

“Truthfully this is the best bagel spot in forest hills. My go to morning breakfast sandwich is a BLT, I’ve had many other items from their menu and they never disappoint. The staff is super kind, and you never have to wait long for your food. Everything is a 10/10“

“This little cafe is the highlight to my morning! I always look forward to the very sweet staff and my favorite order; an everything bagel with scrambled eggs, Swiss, bacon, and avocado. Get the immunity booster to brighten your day!!! <3“

“Love this coffee shop. Perfect location right next to the train station. Service is always ? I always stop here on the days I have class. Family owned Father and daughter very pleasant and friendly. I feel like home every time I go. Keep up the good work. Food is great, coffee even better.“

“Excelente atención y buen servicio, bagels delicioso...Recomendado 100% gracias hermanos saludos desde Puerto Rico... Fuimos 2 veces yesss!!“

“I have been to this place and went in there to get snack like 2 bags of chips and that chips were nice and tasty. The service was good and wonderful. The atmosphere was that there were people in there cooking, eating, talking and that the people in there were nice, friendly and kind.“

“I like their bagels but their prices for everything else are quite inflated. They charge almost forty dollars for a pound of whitefish salad. So I buy bagels there and food elsewhere.“

“Probably the most special place to me in NYC. I love the bagel menu (super heebster forever), the atmosphere, and the workers. There’s nothing quite like taking a number, browsing the desserts, and squeezing into the shop between all kinds of humans. Russ & Daughters exemplifies what NYC is to me. 🩵“

“The best bagels hands down! This has become our "go to" stop each time we pass through NY for bagels. Great customer service. We can call ahead and they have the order ready for our multiple (and large) family order with everything perfect! Super helpful and also help with bringing the many bags out to the car! So much appreciation! Thanks guys! Can't wait to see you again!“

“My first visit to NY. Heard good things about this place as it was ideally located next to our hotel. Food was fresh, service excellent and made to feel very welcome by the staff. It was a truly NY experience. Kind regards to the staff from your friends from London.“

“I simply LOVE it!!!“

“The SMB absolutely blew me away. I thought it was a perfect balance of salty, sweet, light kick of spice. The beef was season so perfectly and was soft and tender. The egg was super fluffy and I really enjoyed the kimchi to add another flavor profile. The bagel itself was also delicious - light crunch on the outside but soft and chewy inside. Perfect texture and honestly it was such great value for a huge bagel. The owner gave out free rice balls because the wait was getting long and those were delicious too.“

“Yes please to all of it! We love this place.“

“Great choice for specialty bagel

As someone born and raised in New York, I’m always on the hunt for a solid bagel spot and Curley’s Bagels caught my attention. It’s a grab and go place, but the inside is surprisingly beautiful and thoughtfully designed. Definitely more elevated than your average bagel shop.

When I walked in, I was impressed by the variety. They had tons of specialty bagels, options with avocado and eggs, and even gluten-free bagels, which is a great choice for anyone with dietary needs. I was tempted to try something creative, but I decided to stick with a classic: a sesame bagel with scallion cream cheese “my personal favorite”. Lol

The woman at the counter was super kind and helpful, and the overall vibe from the staff was warm and welcoming. Even though it was busy, my bagel was made quickly. I also grabbed a coffee, which had a nice bold, dark roast flavor. They offered oat milk, almond milk, and half and half something for everyone.

Biting into the bagel, it was everything I wanted: crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and packed with generously spread scallion cream cheese full of flavor and fresh herbs. Honestly, it felt more like a luxury bagel experience than your typical deli stop.

I spent about $9 for a bagel and coffee, which is a bit on the higher side, but the quality made it worth it. Plus, it was within walking distance from my doctor’s office, so it felt like a great find in the neighborhood.

If you’re nearby and want a quick, delicious bite with great service and thoughtful options, I definitely recommend checking out Curley’s Bagels. Enjoy“

“A true “holy grail” of bagel shops. Their menu is the perfect balance of the classic NYC bagels we know and love, but with some newer flavor combos added to the menu that make eating here both nostalgic and exciting. The Presto Pesto is one of my favorite sandwiches in the city. Make sure you try their chocolate muffins as well. While it can get busy, the staff are friendly and attentive.“

“My family and I love this place. Food is delicious, customer service is phenomenal! They go above and beyond to make their customers happy and to feel welcomed when you come into the store and even when they deliver for you! Not to mention deliveries are fast and reliable. A must try place!“

“Amazing bagels and spreads! Sam’s the black and white cookies! We had v one and then made a second trip back to get the more!“

“Inviting and friendly staff, tasty bagels and super chicken salad! Challah bread was delicious! Mix of traditional with modern sensibility. Highly recommend!“

“bagel nest on fulton street is the best restaurant on Fulton everything is fresh bagel are freshly made at the place. the establishment is clean the customer service is excellent

Come check it out I promise you won’t be disappointed“

“I don’t get all the hype. I’ve had better tasting bagels before I thought this bagel shop would blow my mind lol. They have good bagels, I just don’t get why people line up for them when there are so many better bagel places around. Although they have a lot of bagel types so I’m still giving 4 stars since the service is fast and the bagel selections“

“The bagels are very good!! The worker Alex was super friendly and nice and quick. Definitely 10/10 and recommend. For sure coming back.“

“the food is delicious, the service and efficiency is on point! For NYC these prices are very affordable!“

“We visited B&B on 2nd ave bagels from Arizona and we wanted a quick bagel sandwich. Let me tell you these bagels were amazing! The employees were so friendly, my son dropped his sandwich outside and they even offered to replace it (he was almost done).“

“The best bagels in BK!“

“I like their bagels but their prices for everything else are quite inflated. They charge almost forty dollars for a pound of whitefish salad. So I buy bagels there and food elsewhere.“

“Amazing place. Our favorite in NYC. Great food. Wonderful people.“

“Number 1 in my own personal world since 1994!!! The best and they never disappoint!!“

“The most delicious bagel I have ever eaten! Cream cheese with pistachios and raisins. Thank you!“

“Apollo’s Lox Bagels are incredibly delicious and definitely among the best bagels in NYC. The hype is truly justified.

The bagel rolls are delicately toasted, and the salmon and cream cheese combination is perfect. A real treat!

Luckily, the shop in the East Village isn't as crowded as the location north of Washington Square Park. We didn't even have to wait 10 minutes on a Friday at 3 p.m., which is practically a world record in NYC. The team is quick and appropriately friendly.

Since there's hardly any seating, it's best to take your bagels to go and eat them in the chilled Tomkins Square Park.

Highly recommended!“

“I ordered a flat sesame bagel and was given a plain one even though they confirmed they had the one i wanted so I removed one star for that because it's not the first time it's happened, other than that the place is great and the food has been consistently good.“

“A great local bagel and sandwich corner spot! I love coming here for their freshly made bagels — always warm, soft, and satisfying. They offer a great variety of fillings and cheese spreads, all of which taste super fresh. The prices are just right, and the staff is quick, friendly, and attentive. Definitely a go-to for a solid breakfast or lunch bite.“

“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)“

“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 spent a week in New York, and every single morning started with a bagel from Bagel Express. It quickly became our daily routine. Hands down, these were the best bagels I’ve ever had.

Not only are the bagels amazing, but the coffee is great as well, and the service is friendly and efficient. Everything about this place made our mornings better.

I would highly recommend Bagel Express to anyone visiting New York!“

“This place has the best bagels. Their bagels are so soft and delicious 😋. The scallion cream cheese is perfect. I love the variety of bagels they have and you cant beat the price. They always have a line outside but it goes rather quickly.“

“A very positive experience. We had breakfast here several times while our stay in New York. They have a wide selection of bagels and fillings. The service is fast and friendly. You can take it to go or eat it right there. A great way to start the day.“

“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.“

“Broadway Bagel is good for a lot of things but it's better to tell you what its not good for because it's smaller. their pastrami, very chewy & fatty. I got a wrap & was horrible because I was fighting with the pastrami to bite off a piece & then getting fat in your mouth is disgusting. At times when I get a breakfast sandwich with bacon it's like that's when they choose to hide fatty bacon instead of giving you well cooked bacon. How does an establishment do that to their customers? The tuna wrap w/ French fries, I usually order but now they're adding lettuce when before it was onions & avocado now they're putting celery & adding lettuce. why did they mess with such a great sandwich? Certain staff I work with like their blueberry pancakes, homefries, BLT. But like I said too many times I bought a BLT & it was filled with a lot of fatty bacon. I look at my food before I eat it. They used to have different flavors of OJ, Mango/Pineapple, Strawberry/Banana/Orange, but now all they have is regular OJ. They're changing how they made stuff and they changed the working crew so all I can say is I mostly get breakfast. It's hit & Miss for a lot of things because I like my food the way anyone having a business should make the food for their customers; with love & as best as possible.“

“Definately my favourite bagel place in the neighborhood. I tried both take out and dine in. The quality of the food is great, tons of cream cheese options! the restaurant has a few tables, they are quite small. It gets BUSY quickly, so finding a spot in rush hours isn't always easy. I've seen the line wrapping around the corner but they are also very fast.
They have another location as well in UWS, and I once placed my order for pickup in the wrong location and they managed it internally and still gave me my lunch. Absolutely love this place.“

“LOVE...LOVE...this place..the people are AMAZING !!Smiles all around.. They always welcome me with open arms.. The BEST DAMN TEAM I HAVE EVER SEEN..They work together very well...I SEE THEM EVERY DAY WORKING THERE BUTTS OFF....The line is always out the door....BUT They move very fast!!!!
Guys I love you from the bottom of my BELLY ...LOL....AND HEART...“

“Really good bagels with a shmear... great coffee! Countermen first rate.“

“What a great gem! The local bagel shop has wonderful bagels and spreads. You order on the right side lane, wait, then when they call your order, you come up to the counter to pay. They accept both cash and credit card.

Usually there is a line on Saturday or Sunday morning, but it’s calm any other time.“

“Bagel Belly serves perfectly chewy, fresh, and full of flavor bagels city can offer. The store is always clean, and the vibe is welcoming. On top of that, the staff is incredibly kind and efficient, making the whole experience even better. Whether you're a local or just visiting, this spot is a must. Highly recommend!“

“親切な接客と美味しいベーグル“

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

“Essa is my new go to when it comes to sending a taste of New York as a thank you. All 3 of my orders arrived quickly, were fresh as can be and got rave reviews from Oklahoma, California and Kansas. The flavored cream cheese in particular was mentioned as amazing. Thank you Essa Bagel and thanks also to Goldbelly for spreading good food and good cheer!“

“Tried Street Bites NYC today during my lunch break and it was so good! The meat was incredibly flavorful and tasted really fresh, super tender and perfectly seasoned. The bowl was packed with flavor and the sauces tied everything together really well.

The service was amazing too! The man working there was extremely kind and welcoming, which made the experience even better.

Definitely worth stopping by if you’re in the area. I’ll be coming back for sure!“
