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

Awful. Unprofessional I was trying to get an order no one was waiting on me and I saw the owner outside taking pictures. What kind of circus is this Is this guy currently running here is it a professional business or is it a multimedia frenzy to get people into your front door. Disgrace of a staff. How is it that you go in wait about five minutes no one is helping you and the owner is outside and the staff inside is being so unprofessional. Guys go to Long Island city or Astoria for bagels

Was first introduced to Curley’s Bagels thanks to the “Along the 7 Train” Yelp event.
I was thankful for that introduction after an early Sunday morning airport run. On my way back I decided a bagel for breakfast was exactly what was needed for my trouble. Upon arrival a parking spot was not in my cards on this particular morning, so a temporary spot at a hydrant was a risk I decided to take.
Curley’s had steady traffic, but I quickly perused the menu and decided I would go with the AVOCADO SANGWICH on an Aleppo Pepper Bagel. After some wait, the bag was secured and I scurried back to the car.
The Avocado Sangwich with Mashed avocado, heirloom tomato, fried egg, pepitas, pickled red onion, micro pea tendrils, Zhoug sauce was hearty with a fresh earthy taste. I could have used a sprinkle of salt and pepper to seal the deal. Nonetheless I truly enjoyed my bagel selection and might I add, it was quite filling and I had to save 1/2 for later indulgence.
Well worth the pit stop on the way home.
Just A Note:
The specialty breakfast “sangwiches” might be consider a treat because they will run you double digits.

Love the standard New York City bagel, but sometimes it could just get a little much. These are light airy fluffy and just delicious. Would definitely recommend visiting if you live in the area or visiting. 10/10 bagels 🥯

Every time I visit NYC, I HAVE to have a bagel. This trip, I chose Curley's and I definitely made the right choice. The spot is clean and bright and very inviting. The owner, Curley, is front and center and spent a good ten minutes with me (while moderately busy) chatting about his journey from film and TV to opening his own bagel shop.
We got a variety of bagels, all customizable and plenty of options to choose from. The bagels were delicious!
