Good flavor, bagels are better than expected, definitely a place to come back to. Workers are friendly and the ambiance is pretty chill though can get busy! Just a small note: they could really put more cream cheese on the bagels. I usually get blueberry or like spread cream cheese-I feel like for the price nowadays, they could put in a little bit more effort to spread the cream cheese more evenly add a little more. read more

This pathetic place literally changes their price despite what is on the menu right behind them. How are you charging somebody for the price of scallion tofu when they ordered plain tofu and they paid less THE DAY BEFORE? Then when I repeatedly am SHOWING them on the menu their price is false, the pathetic cashier is trying to gaslight me and says "yeah that's the price for the plain tofu." I've made a formal complaint about this establishment to the city for price gouging and ripping off customers, and hopefully a full investigation and serious accountability will be put on them because I'm sure I'm not the only one they've done this too. PLEASE avoid this fraud of a place. read more

Stopped in for an iced coffee. The vibe is so fun with cute decorations. Everything is immaculate. The staff is super friendly! I ordered an iced chai latte. It was only $6.48 for a large. To be honest that a bargain for a coffee! It also happened to be the best iced chai latte I've ever had. Not too much ice, plenty of flavoring. It was just so good and refreshing on a hot day! Will def be back! read more

Full deli selection, sandwiches( hot and cold), wraps etc. Bagels are ok, and food here is not excessively overpriced. A good place if you need to sit and have breakfast or quick meal . The staff is friendly. I love the decor. A whimsical wall of bagels and they have a very beautiful back yard that's not visible from the front, you'd have to go near the back tables/bathroom to discover it. An indoor space for a bike or two is right near the front foyer. On my last visit it saw a cold case with fresh homemade yogurt. read more

A solid bagel, no question. As someone who takes their bagels seriously, I wouldn't crown it the city's best--but it absolutely doesn't deserve hate. It delivered exactly what it needed to, and I walked away satisfied. The cafe itself is very cute. Lots of seating which is nice. I will certainly be back to try more! read more

Overall average experience. I was surprised - although really shouldn't be anymore in Manhattan - by the cost of an egg white omelette sandwich. With a large coffee, I ended up spending $15 for what tasted like an average breakfast sandwich. The egg and veggies were cooked decently but the croissant wasn't particularly special. From the outside, this place looks relatively small, but upon entering you'll find ample space for seating purposes plus a selection of food items ranging from takeout side salads to homemade yogurt with customized toppings. I appreciate the early opening hours and hope to return but with a revised food selection. read more

An average bagel store. No enticing aroma of freshly baked bagels as I entered. I wanted a toasted plain bagel with cream cheese and lettuce. I wanted one lettuce leaf which cost $1. One dollar for one leaf? I decided to have the normal amount. Seating was available and I managed to eat half the bagel. A restroom is also located here. Outdoor seating at the back in a private garden is nice read more

only problem is the bagel's a bit hard. like maybe too "crunchy" (like, "crumbly") or sth but at least it's not my taste. but otherwise it's pretty neat. clean place, smiling service, the whole package. good breakfast bite. oh and they don't have a lot of coffee options (i tried flat white and they don't have it). but that might be me being too Australian and i'm not even Aussie :/ read more

When walking into this shop the cute bagel decorations caught my eye and the spaciousness of this bagel shop was awesome. I got an egg, cheese and avocado on a sesame bagel. There was no line so my food came out quickly. I was excited to try it out. When I opened the wrapping the bagel did not look appetizing. But, I was very hungry so ate it. It was the most tasteless bagel... the egg and avocado and cheese were nothing special either. I was sad that it was not good as the place was just soo cute! read more

Great selections of bagels that taste the way bagels are supposed to taste. They are also fast on the breakfast sandwich. Came in one am to get two bagels and coffee. I like that I could cream and sugar my own coffee, because I like mine dark with one sugar and hubs likes his ridiculously light and sweet. Bagels were quick and well made. Only issue was mine had wayyy too much cheese on it. Some may like that but I'm not a gooey cheese person. Good specials. read more

Overall: great bagel! I would say 8/10 The cream cheese is delicious and the perfect quantity and consistency (if you like a generous amount). I only wish the flavor had more of a punch. The bagel is definitely fresh and tastes delicious! I will definitely be coming back! read more

I don't why anyone would give this place a bad rating, but anyway, while I'm not gluten-intolerant, I've avoided bagels for at least a decade because of how incredibly carb-y they are. Enter Bagel Belly, which I'd walked into one time with my partner because she wanted some ice coffee (or was it iced tea?). I was surprised at how spacious the place was and the high level of service for a bagelry. We recently ordered a gluten-free bagel with tofu cream cheese, and a regular everything bagel with cream cheese to go. Like most bagel places they are ridiculously generous with their smears (it's like napkins in New York or something). The GF bagel is smaller than a non-GF one but still really good and filling. read more

This is one of the best bagel places around. The bagels are large and fluffy. They have a great selection of cream cheese flavors. If you stick to the basic menu items it is reasonably priced for daily breakfast. The options to upgrade including fresh salmon can increase the price significantly... Every time I go to Ny I stop here! I would recommend this place read more

Bagel belly was our first stop when we got to NYC as it was morning. We got the Lox on a rainbow bagel and a egg and cheese croissant. First let me say that this place has major character. Decorating the walls with bagels is genius. Everything tasted and looked fresh. Lots of seating inside and outside. I can say we will be back before we leave. read more

I stoped by in search of a rainbow bagel with sweet cream cheese so I got mine with blueberry cream cheese and it was delicious! I also got a hot coffee which paired well with my sweet bagel.

I ordered the rainbow bagel with scallion cream cheese and it didn't disappoint. It tasted like a normal bagel with cream cheese. Not the best I've had but also not the worst. I'd probably return because of its location but i wouldn't travel far and wide for a bagel from here. I wish it had a bit more cream cheese and I wish the scallion flavor shine through more when tasting it. Otherwise, it's a standard bagel and definitely a delicious breakfast! I'm not sure if every rainbow bagel looks different but it's definitely a cool concept. You're paying for the hype for sure but it makes for a good photo. The staff is friendly. The line wasn't too long when we entered but by the time we got our bagels there was about a 5 minute line forming. The interior is clean and cute and you are able to sit and enjoy the food read more

I've come to frequent this place since it is nearby & wow this place is such a great morning bagel spot. Havent had a better experience anywhere else. I rlly liked the scallion tofu cream cheese. I knowwwww tofu cream cheese is fake but sometimes is lactose intolerant folks need to give our stomachs a break. Got it on a plain bagel & it was a perfect morning! The bagel was still warm & it was perfectly fluffy on the inside but also had a nice crunch to it bc of the exterior. Lots of space to sit down (& free wifi posted on walls) & lots of drinks. Lots of cream cheese options as well as bagels! I don't know y this place has 3 stars I think these r the best bagels I've had, even better than Tompkins! They're fresh, warm, soft on the inside but have a nice toasty outside. Absolutely delicious!!!! I will say that I've been eyeing the chocolate bagel bc of my enormous sweet tooth but every time they're sold out! Maybe go in the mornings to get the full selection. They also have good breakfast deals! Pastries r not their strong suit tbh. Almond croissant was edible but mediocre at best. Skip these & just head straight for the bagels! read more

Second time here and not disappointed. The bagels are excellent. Cooked to be chewy and toothsome with a firm exterior. About 10 varieties to choose from. Also a wide selection of breakfast toppings and sandwich meats. Service great. Kind of a hole in the wall vibe. Overall great read more

Absolutely outstanding bagel place with seating! We had a bacon, egg, and cheese on an everything bagel. Cooked fresh and was piping hot! Also had a sesame with cream cheese - again toasted perfectly with just the right amount of cream cheese. What was most impressive was how quick they were with making the order. The coffee was also great and I really liked how you dispense the milk/cream out of a machine so no touching those dirty handles at other places. In summary - hot fresh and perfectly chewy bagels served in a clean cute place. Try it out - you will like it! read more

Been going here since college. They still have a large selection of spreads and bagels at a REASONABLE price. I'm sick of these bagel spots with lines down the block charging you $20 for a tiny little bagel and you have to wait 30 minutes. The employees are so friendly and the service is FAST! No waiting around. There's lots of seating (and a secret outdoor patio), and free WiFi. read more

Love the option for vegan cream cheese, but I see what some of the other reviews meant when they said the bagels tasted a bit doughy. I tried the rainbow bagel and it tasted a bit like play doh. It's possible that taste came from the excessive amounts of food coloring necessary, but I'm not sure. The main reason I'm giving a 3/5 is because after eating the bagel I felt extremely sick. I'm not sure why this is, as it's never happened to me before. Could be a one time thing, but I guess I'll never know. On a different note, there is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, a wide variety of bagels and spreads, and the staff was decently friendly. read more

Their bagels are indeed special. The colorful ones are harder to make as they incorporate different color doughs to make patterns and without losing its colors. The organic ones were actually nice and crisp when I took it home to toast them. The mango cranberry cream cheese is way over priced I think. For $2.75, I got about a third of the small half pint size container. They weigh them and that's all I got. The colorful bagels are priced like desserts but worth the change if having colors. The organic bagels were $1.25 which I thought was also pricey. read more

Great bagels lots of cream cheese! Definitely a great location and spot for breakfast

I would give this place a 3.5 star rating. Love this place for their bagels. They are so moist but very expensive :( so i can't go very often. They have a discount for NYU students with an ID but even still it's very expensive! They usually have a long wait and their system is very disorganized. It's hard to get your order in and be able to pay in a timely manner. I would come sometime during mid-day (3 or 4 pm). The good thing about this place is that it's also open until 8 pm! I got a rainbow bagel with tofu cream cheese. They have a wide variety of tofu spreads which is great for those who are non-dairy! They have so many types of other cream cheese as well. Basically any combination you'd want is here. It's located in a great area and the bagels are worth the wait (sometimes). Try it out! read more

For GF people out there you have to get a GF bagel here! I have been eating gluten free for 6 years and never thought I would have a good bagel again. At Bagel Belly, I thought I was eating a real glutinous bagel. I am not sure if it is GF safe for celiac people, but if you just have gluten sensitivity and want a bagel go to bagel belly. They also have a great selection of spreads. They usually run out of GF bagels by the afternoon so if you don't go in the morning, call and ask what's left. *this review was for the old gf bagel. I have heard the new one is not a plain bagel and very different tasting. I have yet to try it. read more

Best cinnamon raisin bagels I've tried so far. As well as the cream cheese! My fav bagel spot in the area

Good but not great bagels. Employees are friendly and have a nice sense of humor. The gentleman who helped us out was very attentive, thanks! It's clean and organized in here. I appreciate that there is quite a bit of indoor seating available and there is a clean restroom in the back too. Their bagels are big, the hubs and I were able to share one and were very full. As far as consistency, these bagels have a nice outer layer but the middle is on the tougher side. It would be nice if they were a bit softer. As far as flavor, they were OK. There are definitely better bagels around NY, but this place is conveniently located in East Village. I wouldn't go out of my way to try this place out but if you're in the area and craving a bagel, Bagel Belly is a nice option indeed. read more

The sandwich itself wasn't bad and it was packaged very well for delivery. The bagel tasted undercooked and doughy which some people may prefer but I don't. I tried to recreate a sandwich from another spot and it wasn't bad actually. I was surprised that the chicken was fried but I actually preferred it that way. Chipotle chicken is more like chicken cutlet with chipotle sauce which is still good. read more
