Bagels Restaurants near Islip, NY

“THE BEST bagels ever. On Long Island and in New York. I’m not qualified to make that statement but from my personal opinion it’s the absolute best. I’m a local to the area and have been going here for years and recommend it to family and friends from out of town. It’s a great family run business as well.The bagels are soft and chewy, a perfect combo and the cream cheese is smooth and delicious. They put a good amount on there as well.Whenever we are back in town we always grab a bagel here. Highly recommend!“

“BEST BAGEL "DELI" IN AREA . FRESH FOOD, POLITE STAFF. LARGE VARITY OF CHICKEN SALDS PLUS BURGER PLATTERS AS WELL. FRESH MADE SALADS AND THE BEST HOME FRIES ANYWHERE !!!“

“Bagels are always hot and fresh.
Cream cheese is just right!
Friendly fast service. One negative the lot is small and often gets congested and Hunter Ave is too busy to safely park on, very busy intersection. Businesses on all 4 corners.“

“Bagels are always fresh. They have a great selection too. The Rye is my favorite!!!“

“The young man working here was very accommodating and made me feel welcome. He put together two sandwiches for me that were delicious; an egg everything bagel with cream cheese, lox, tomato and onion to share. Came with a side salad. Chose the cucumber salad which was fantastic. Was so good I decided to try a Greek omelette on a sesame oat bagel. Excellent as well. Prices reasonable and not ridiculous like other places. Proof that how friendly and helpful you are to customers makes a huge difference.“

“Food is always fresh soup is absolutely amazing homemade delicious friendly service highly recommended“

“I recently visited this delightful bagel shop and was thoroughly impressed! The bagel sandwiches and croissants were absolutely delicious. My son said it was the best bacon, egg and cheese sandwich he’s ever had. The staff is super friendly as well. I highly recommend this bagel shop!“

“Wally’s Bagels is hands down the best bagel spot around! The bagels are always fresh, perfectly chewy, and have just the right amount of crisp on the outside. They have a fantastic selection of flavors and spreads, from classic cream cheese to more unique options.
The staff here is also friendly and efficient, even during the morning rush. Whether you’re grabbing a quick breakfast or enjoying a leisurely brunch, Wally’s creates a welcoming vibe that keeps you coming back. Highly recommend!“

“I must say this place brought there bagel game! Bagels are delish! Nice to have another bagel spot in town. Welcome!“

“Everything I’ve tried here has been amazing! They even make their own ice cream, which you definitely need to try. The staff are super friendly, and the owners are right there running the place themselves. It’s a true family business and honestly just perfect.“

“If you’re in the East Northport area, and you’re looking for a real bagel, this is the spot! It’s a gem! A whole in the wall, mom and pop, old school shop, with a lack luster sign, in a tiny parking lot, makes this place easy to miss, but don’t miss it!! I’ve been getting my bagels from here for about 8 years, and it’s always been consistent.
After living on the Queens border for many years, I was shocked after moving to East Northport that many bagel shops in town don’t really make bagels. They make donut shaped bread. And most locals are so accustomed to eating this donut shaped bread, that they actually have no idea what a real bagel should taste and feel like. It’s strange. Or maybe locals settle for a less-than delicious bagel, so they can sit in a trendier setting, which I also find weird. But, I digress.
The point of all of that is to say that at Stuff-A-Bagel, you will get the closest thing to an authentic city bagel that I have found anywhere in this general area. Yes, I have tried every bagel shop in East Northport, Northport, Greenlawn and Commack. And none of the ones locals brag about even compare to this one.
When you visit Stuff-A-Bagel, your bagel will be perfectly cooked, slightly toated and “al dente” on the outside, while nice and doughy on the inside. It will have that “pop” that a bagel should. (If you know, you know.) Their bagels are delicious and addicting! Also, their cream cheese tastes homemade, as every bagel store’s should be. If you’re not making your own cream cheese, are you even a bagel store? (Tangent again, sorry.)
Also, the owners here are such lovely people. They are warm and welcoming. They value getting to know their customers, which is a rare thing nowadays. Their prices are fair, and they’ve thrown in a few freebies a couple of times, when my order was larger. And, they keep the line moving. You never have to wait long for your order. I cannot say enough about how wonderful their customer service is. Warning to those who do not like kindness and socialization: (as a previous reviewer stated) you may feel an unfamiliar feeling to interact with your fellow man. But it’s okay. You can do it.
Stuff-A-Bagel is delicious! Next time you’re on Larkfield, driving by, stop in and see for yourself. Better yet, next Saturday, grab your weekly dozen from there! When it comes to bagels, THIS is a place that people should be talking about!!!“

“Wish I knew about them sooner! !! I would have gone there for years! They should open one by us in kings park! !“

“Just had a chicken cutlet sandwich on a roll with tomato, lettuce, cheese, bacon and a special homemade spicy sauce. The best sandwich ever!!! Please try it! You will love it!“

“Their breakfast sandwiches have to be the best on the island. The two staff were incredibly efficient & got through orders quickly. I don’t often review, but had to to make sure I remember to come back here next time I’m in the area.“

“Best bagels in town ! Customer service is awesome ! Please give them a try you won’t be disappointed!“

“hubby's in there now buying bagels and cream cheese“

“Super friendly service, the BEST bagels on Long Island and a warm, cozy "greasy spoon" atmosphere - Avenue Bagels has the small town charm so hard to find these days. Always clean and comfortable if you choose to sit in and stay, it almost feels like hanging out at a friend's house - my mom and dad (Bob Walsh and Margie Holly Walsh go whenever they can - and they sold me, too. Avenue Bagels is the BEST! <3“

“A review recently said they didn’t have the cream cheese but i went about 2 weeks ago and they had plain and veggie. They helped me know which bagels had egg too. Funny the bagels without spread seemed a bit stale but the one made w the cream cheese was fresher and we enjoyed w the tofu veggie cream cheese“

“Order a dozen from Ohio. Fast and Great! Thanks“

“Called last minute for 9 dozen bagels to take to a team breakfast. Bari and her team got it done, bagged everything for freshness and the lacrosse team were so thrilled with their bagel breakfast! Best tasting bagels around and family owned and operated. Love it!“

“They opened for me after hours so I could get my birthday cake! It was amazing!!“

“I definitely recommend it to everyone, the store is so clean and food is amazing ! Noor is absolutely amazing too! She’s always so sweet, hardworking, and full of positive energy. No matter how busy it gets, she stays kind and helpful to everyone. You can tell she really loves what she does — she’s the heart of this place! Thank you, I think this store will be my sec home now 😄“

“I had one tall looked, he appeared to be Spanish, that had NO clue what I was trying to order.
I have to repeat it three times and he still didn't get it right! The woman behind me was shaking her head and disbelief.
He never gave me a fork and knife, so I had to get up from the table and go get that. Then I told him for toast lightly toasted and he burnt it so bad, you could snap in half like a cookie.If I ever DO go back there, I will make sure that he does NOT take my order.“

“I ordered egg salad, lox spread and scallion cream cheese with a dozen bagels for the office. Everything was delicious and fresh. The new owner Sabira is so friendly and really makes sure you are being taken care of. The bagel store is so clean and they are really organized. We are so happy to have such a great place for bagels in town!!“

“If you’re from the area, you already know. And if you’re not—let me put you on. JeJoJo Bagels is THAT spot. From the second you walk in, the vibe is welcoming, warm, and just real. It’s not one of those rushed, cramped places where you grab a bagel and run. There’s actually room to sit, chat, and enjoy—like the Sunday morning ritual we all deserve. And the food? Let’s talk about it. The bagels come out warm, fluffy inside with just the right crunch on the outside—the kind that makes you close your eyes for a second on the first bite. Whether you’re a classic bacon egg and cheese lover or you go rogue with lox and scallion cream cheese, every bite hits. The crew behind the counter? Terrific people. They know their regulars, keep things moving, and still manage to smile like they’re genuinely happy to be there. That energy matters. JeJoJo’s has officially become my Sunday morning cheat meal haven. I sit, sip my coffee, tear into a hot bagel, and let the world slow down for a minute. It’s more than a bagel shop—it’s a little pocket of comfort.“

“I've always been going to this location due to its convenience but now that it's under new ownership this year, not only is it better but you get more for your dollar. The prices now are actually better than they were under previous management. Great combinations for breakfast or lunch, many fresh cream cheeses and bagels/flagles. I highly recommend this location. If you cannot find it, go right past the Walgreens if you are heading north on Terry and turn where it says massage envy because it is easy to miss. If you hit Maureen's, you went too far north. It will be on your right.“

“The best place for bagels and food!!! The friendliest staff!!!!“

“It’s my favorite breakfast sandwich spot. You can text in and have ready usually by the time you get there. They are always busy which is a good thing. I love this place and the staff there. Chris, the owner’s son, is really nice and has a good personality.“

“Fresh food friendly service...“

“My daughter is CRAZY PICKY with bagels and she loves yours!!!! I got in the car and said, “These have to be good, it was NUTS in there.” That said, you run a tight ship also with excellent customer service and the bagels are the best I have ever had in my life. She approves, too. Thank you!!!“

“I lived in Sayville, not far from Always Bagels. In fact passed right by it eeveryday on my way to work and never knew it was there. Now I live in Maine and ask any New Yorker what the miss most and New York bagels will be in the top 3. Here in Bridgton ME we found my favorite pumpernickel bagel at Food City. WOW, a GREAT BAGEL!!! Shared how these bagel were as good as the best bagels I had on Long Island, NY. Complimented Food City on their Great bagels. Never thinking to look at the label...Bohemia, NY. LONG ISLAND BAGELS!!! THE BEST!!! The thing I missed most is right here in my quaint Maine town. THANK YOU ALWAYS BAGELS...YOU ARE TRULY THE BEST BAGELS!!!“

“Do not go was best best place for a sandwich one day got a egg sandwich with 2 hairs in it Talk to the boss nicely he gave me money back and said don’t call back to the store his name was paul“

“My family has been getting breakfast from this place ever since we’ve moved here 8 years ago and almost everything we’ve got were delicious. The bagels are soft and warm, you could choose from all different types of cream cheese and the breakfast sandwiches are amazing. I would highly recommend the Bacon, Egg & Cheese Sandwich which is my favorite item and it’s unbelievable. I definitely recommend going here and you’ll most likely not be disappointed.“

“The best jelly donuts on LI for sure. Dunkin’ Donuts doesn’t even put an ounce of jelly in theirs. They put in 1/2 cup! Yummy! Their bread is of Arthur Avenue quality. The service is excellent and friendly conversations flow easily. A nice young man “paid it forward “ today and paid for our order. Thanks again to that wonderful customer!! Now it’s our turn to do the same! Run don’t walk to Prestano bakery In Ronkonkoma.“

“Awesome food. Awesomer people. I know its not a word but says it all“

“from the moment i walked in i was greeted by a wonderful lady with her bright beautiful smile while she was multitasking and taking care of customers so politely and patiently it really made my entire day because i was having a really bad day and decided to treat myself to a delicious fresh bagel and hot coffee and when i left there i could not stop thinking of the pleasant lady with the hat on and gorgeous nails and her beautiful skin just inspired me so much and i will be back to treat myself again one day and i hope i see that hard working lady again with that beautiful smile thank u for hiring her shes a wonderful asset to your company…i cannot remember her name when i asked her but i do believe it begins with an S and i hope she gets the recognition she deserves“

“awesome french toast bagals are big and soft tast amazing, the smoothie are great and there cookies are great bacon tasty .“

“Here's a review of Bagel Hero in Oakdale, NY based on My experience:
Bagel Hero - A Heroic Breakfast Experience!
If you're looking for a reliably good breakfast in Oakdale, Bagel Hero seems to hit the mark! You had a fantastic experience with their Hungry Man Hero, getting it just the way you like it. It's always a win when a place nails specific requests, and they clearly did with your order: toasted on both sides, perfectly runny over-easy eggs, and that extra kick of raw onions.
Beyond the customized order, I highlighted a few key things that make Bagel Hero stand out. Silvia helped me, quick and easy service is a huge plus, especially when you're looking to grab a bite on the go. And knowing it's a clean place definitely adds to the appeal.
It sounds like Bagel Hero earned a loyal customer with this visit! What other breakfast spots in Oakdale have you tried?“

“First time trying this place. We got toasted bagels with cream cheese.
The bagels were delicious. The right amount of chewy without being gummy. Could have put a little more cream cheese on the bagels but they were so good it wasn’t a big deal.
Priced about the same as other bagel shops in the area. Will definitely be back.
They also take Apple Pay!“

“I've been going here since 2016! Consistently a very solid establishment. Quick friendly service, and good bagels! I have honestly never seen so many petty and dramatic low reviews for a store before, reading some of them genuinely gave me a headache. This is a respectable small business that has stood the test of time and I will continue to be a repeat customer.“

“near where i work i think? gonna check it out!“

“I catered a brunch this weekend with Bagel Buzz. This was my second catering order with them. I spoke with Gina over the phone to place my order and alerted her to the many food allergies in my party. I trust Bagel Buzz with making sure no cross contamination takes place in making my order. My wrap platter arrived on time and beautifully arranged and was delicious. The veggie cream cheese for the bagels was rich with fresh vegetables and salads were perfect. Thank you Bagel Buzz and Gina for another awesome catering order. I'll always be back when the next party rolls around.“

“Picked up bagels to take to Ohio with me and a sandwich for lunch the day for myself. Sandwich was delicious!! The bagels were a huge hit in Ohio, the kids especially loved the French Toast Bagel.“

“This place is one of those spots where you can get a good bagel/breakfast sandwich and make sure it’s made to your liking. The owner is very accommodating and will make things that is not on the menu. I was craving a Pizza Bagel and he was able to make one. Good and honest people- they are on DoorDash and Uber too. Hope they create a rewards program!“

“Best bagels in Suffolk County! Great prices and awesome service!“

“The Breakfast egg and cheese sandwich on a jalepeno bagel was really good and I came back a 2nd time before leaving New York /New Jersey“

“ABSOLUTELY THE BEST BAGELS!!! Other bagel stores on Long Island are good… these are GREAT!! If you haven’t been there, you don’t know what you’re missing!!! Thy them!!“

“Our first time ordering here. The food was good, and I don't know how they're making their whipped cream but it was absolutely amazing. But I really wrote this to say a thank you to the Sunday morning staff there on 10/12. There was a mix up and we didnt get a lg part of our order. Bagel chalet had their driver drop off our missing items in less than 15mins. There's no accountability for restaurants in the age of door dash/ uber eats. Ive had entire orders swapped out and restaurants blame Uber, Uber blames the restaurant, we get a credit and no one cares where the mess up was.“

“10/10 recommend! Great food, great prices. The owners / staff are always smiling and are so nice and friendly. Also love the vast array of cold drinks they have, anything you can want or think of is there. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Quality and quantity of food is good but the customer service is horrendous... New owner and employees are rude and unfriendly. Watch your order as they forget items and charge you extra“
