Customer keeps coming, despite that it is fast moving queue. Generous amount, egg is so fluffy and nice like pudding! I appreciate it. Bagel is fresh and nice too! They only accept cash so do note that. Thankful the cashier is patient with me ordering for the first time as well. Good experience! No dine in.

It hurts me to do this. I’ve been coming here for years and the bagels are great, but they have consistently overcharged me. I can’t keep coming back here unless I want to be the jerk seemingly causing a scene in a busy mom and pop shop. Or they could just charge people the right amount but I don’t count on that happening.
Best start of the day. These bagels gave me the courage to live

The bagel wasn’t very fresh, the cheese too watery. I don’t get the hype :/ I’ve been to so many better bagel shops in nyc

Excellent bagels, airy cream cheese and scrumptious sandwiches. A great place to grab a quick bite to eat. Do be warned though, this place regularly has serpentine queues in the morning so be prepared to wait for a while to get your food. You will forget about the wait when you dig in though!
Vegetarian options: They do have veggie options but be prepared to ask them to change knives and gloves to avoid cross contamination

Exactly how a NYC bagel place should be. Simple, fast, tons of cream cheese flavours and fab bagels. Run by the nicest people. I’ve never experienced so much happiness ordering my bagel. The bagels are designed to perfection, they have a good crisp outside while being super soft inside. Legit. Everything bagel and pumpernickel are what we tried - both hit the mark. I had herb cream cheese and it was 12/10; sun dried tomato cream cheese also hit. You can’t go wrong here: ~$5 bagel.

Absolutely one of the best Blake bagels you’ll ever eat I guarantee you make sure you order the everything bagel with cream cheese one of my favorites I picked up. Uber eats order and had the pleasure of eating one of these in the car.

Wouldn't return even if I was paid to. The cashier shouted at me and was horribly rude. Poor quality bagels that are most certainly not worth the wait nor the hassle. The inside was very dirty and they will also add charges so pay attention!

Very disappointing to wait for an hour in line before getting close to the front and seeing a single small sign that says "Cash Only." If a business decides that they do not want to partake in the most common payment option in the 21st century, that's fine, but they should at least strongly advertise that decision so that consumers do not wait for an hour or more just to learn that they do not have the correct payment method to purchase food. I would suggest a larger sign in the window or by the entrance so as to not waste people's time. From what I saw, the bagels inside looked subpar anyway and the interior was dirty.
Very very disappointed! Waited for just over one hour to get in. No signs posted about cash only until you get inside. Such a waist of time. Shame on you! ZERO STARS. Will tell everyone to stay away. This place also has a B rating..
My favorite bagel spot in NYC!

Personally my second favorite bagels in New York City, however this place could easily be anyone’s first. Incredible bagels and numerous cream cheese options that my mouth waters for every time I think of them. There’s a reason this shop has a line out the door!

Great NY bagel experience - quick service and great food. The atmosphere, to me, is exactly what I would want for this type of establishment. It's not a sit down sort of place, rather a no frills place (cash only) that does great bagels.
