Ess-a-Bagel - New York

Simply amazing. Best bagel I have ever had in my life. Cannot get better than this! We got a sesame bagel with plain cream cheese and an everything bagel with veggie cream cheese and both were incredible. There was a long line, be prepared for a 30-40 minute wait, but so worth it!

I heard a lot about this place and hell yeah! The signature and the BLT bagels were delicious. The place is busy and there was a bit of line. We got the signature on a plain white, wow the cream cheese and cappers were so good along with the smoked salmon. We also shared the BLT on the garlic bagel, very flavorful and the bagel texture is incredible. Their iced coffee is huge and just what we needed on this hot weather. Ess-a-Bagel lived up to the hype! Also, amazing service, these folks work hard , so tip them nicely. Keep up the great work guys!!!

5/5! Absolutely delicious! I've been looking for a good bagel spot, and I can say this is one of my top 5's so far. When I got here, there was quite a long line going out the door. But I had to wait after the many positive reviews. And I'm glad I did! The Food: I went with the Signature Favorite on a everything wheat bagel. The bagel was stuffed with cream cheese and the portion of salmon they give you is very generous. I opted out for the extra lettuce and tomato since I just wanted cream cheese and salmon. The bagels are huge though, so you'll be left full after one bagel The Service: The service was great. The staff move quick since the demand is there. I'd look over the menu and know what you want before it's your turn to order to keep the lines moving. Overall, 5/5. The bagel was delicious and the service was great.

The wait is long especially on a weekend be prepared!!! We waited one hour to get our bagels the line out the door and they go as fast as they can!! A damn good bagel though! Coffee wasn’t as good as I hoped but that’s okay cause the bagels were excellent! VERY LARGE BAGELS!! I got everything bagel toasted with butter I also got an everything bagel sandwich with bacon egg and cheese amazing!!

Huge variety of bagel choices, particularly when it comes to cream cheese. The portion sizes are generous, and the bagels fresh. Would highly recommend their signature lox bagel in particular! However, worth noting that the staff working there are very unfriendly and sometimes rude. Over the course of a week, I came here 5 times and each time the staff rushed me and responded rudely to any questions I asked. Had the experience with the staff been better, I would have happily rated this place with 5 stars.
