Very simple order, yet they managed to get it all wrong!!!!! When I called they pretty much said they can't do anything for me. All I asked was for them to deliver the right items!! Never Again!!! Bad customer service!! read more

Unfortunately I was not a fan of this place at all. I ordered a whole wheat bagel with vegetable cream cheese. The bagel was hard on the outside and chewy on the inside which I did not like. I thought I was going to cut the roof of my mouth off biting down. The vegetable cream cheese lacked flavor and vegetables and was not super cold. Next time I am in Milltown, I will try Milltown bagels down the road to see if they are any better. read more

Super super super super slow took 30 minutes to get 4 bagels. Staff is friendly but doesn't make up for slow service and they burn the Taylor ham half the time to a tiny little blackened cisp if your in a hurry this isn't the place for you takes a minimum of 10 minutes each time I ago. Should be called sluggish bagel instead of bagel express. read more

So I'll give this a 4 star because I love that they actually offer gluten free bagels. No one else in the area does. At first when it comes out you look at it and it's just this flat sad looking thing, but it actually has a delicious flavor to it. I hope they never change the brand they get in. They're much better than the frozen Gf bagels you can buy in grocery stores. I always get their turkey BLT on a gluten free bagel. As good as it is, I do think they overcharge for these sandwiches. For 7.99$ my sandwich should at least come with a small bag of chips or something. Sandwich and a drink, I always end up spending over 10$ total which is kind of a lot for lunch. Since the gluten free bagel is literally half the size of their store made bagels they probably shouldn't be charging a dollar more for them. Most of the employees are nice. Edit: the past few times I wasnt charged the extra dollar for the bagel. So I changed my review to 5 Stars. Thank you read more

Love supporting this business! Has the best sandwiches and the staff is so warm and welcoming always.

Another go to, close to home. Walking distance, which is great. I've been here several times. Bagels are good! Super Cinnamon Raisin is the best! They use Boars Head lunch meat, which is my preference. Always fresh. You can eat there, as they have a few tables, but I always opt to take out. They also have breakfast platters that are priced decently for the amount of food you get. They do home fries right! Sometimes I call ahead, but mostly I just walk in. Orders are handled fairly quickly. Place usually has a line, but the orders come out. Make sure you get there before three though as they close early! read more

Who doesn't love bagels. This shop was fantastic. read more

The bagels are good enough, which is encouraging given the simplicity of the place. Tea lovers: take your own tea bags from home since all they have is Lipton black & decaf. I guess they don't want to overshadow the cappuccino machine that looks like it was salvaged from a 1970s truck stop. And if I decide someday to name my business with the word "Bagel" in it, you can be sure I will turn out better samples that can be found here. But hunger is hunger; sometimes you just need to fuel the tank and move on. read more

Probably the best bagels in the area and I've tried them all. They are hand-rolled and come out soft and delicious. Service is top-notch, very friendly, but the coffee is rancid. Tastes like dishwater no matter how many second chances I give it. Still, can't beat the bagels and they have good deli meat as well, so it's worth it to make a second stop and get coffee someplace else. UPDATE (8/12): They have new coffee equipment/system and it's much better. Coffee isn't as strong as I like it but it's super hot and tastes 100x better than the poison they were serving before. Finally! read more

Bagels fresh out the oven are DELICIOUS!!!! We love the egg bagels and plain bagels. I can eat the bagels just by themselves, with nothing on it .. that's how good they are . Customer service is also great. Will continue supporting this local gem! read more

If you're looking for a place that will get your order right consistently, arrive hot & on time when you preorder, and be delicious... do not hesitate to order from them. They are courteous and a great local shop. read more

Great service and really good food .. lots of options.. My husband loves the bagels..

I can honestly say this is one of my normal spots to grab a quick breakfast sandwich. I usually get a sausage, egg and cheese however I've tried their deli sandwiches such as the cheese steak or roast beef n cheese- okay, nothing great. I wasn't too crazy about the deli side but for breakfast I'd def. recommend. Sometimes the Staff is on point and sometimes not so much but I deal with it because the owner is very nice. I dropped a star because the service can be much better. Environment is clean for the most part and location is great since it's right by my house. And it's a plus when there's always parking :) read more

See all

I'm not a big fan of this bagel. I ordered a wheat everything with cream cheese, lox, etc. The toppings were good and fresh but the texture of the bagel itself was unlike anything I've ever had...and not in a good way! It was so weird! It was like, charred/ burned on the edges (and you could really taste that bad burned taste), a bit crispy on the outside, and like bread on the inside. I did not like it. It was pillowy. It is not proper bagel texture. Service is great, though - very friendly and quick. read more

I'm a stickler for bagels...I am an admitted bagel snob. This place does have a PRETTY decent bagel. It's not the exact kind I grew up with but they do serve a pretty decent bagel. Bagels are big and kinda fluffy. There is a nice baked crispness on the outside...which I like! But it is a tad bit bready in the middle. Just my opinion so depending on the kind of bagel you like you may disagree. To be honest, sometimes I prefer the bagel with butter more then their sandwiches but maybe in a way I am a bagel purist, haha. Either way, a tasty place to try! read more

I have wanted to come here because of the good reviews. I came around 9am, The lines moved very quickly with ordering. The staff felt a little bit overworked, and not very friendly. I told the man at the front what I wanted to order. The man writes it down like crazy, but frowned at me, probably because he felt rushed. The store is pretty small, and there is no restroom, so it made me a little uncomfortable eating a bagel with dirty hands. The bagel came out within 5 minutes. I got a French Toast bagel, and the bagel tasted very soft which I really liked. The woman who brought us our bagels seemed unhappy, and wasn't either friendly, I ordered cream cheese on the bagel, and to me it seemed like they put cream cheese and butter together, which tasted a bit odd. Also, when I was getting my drink, I tried puling the door, and it did not budge. Another man in the line said you have to slide the door.The door did not budge for 5 seconds, but later it worked, and I got my drink. It just gets an extra star for good variety, and fast service. read more

This place has quality bagels and delicious breakfast sandwiches! My boyfriend both get a pork roll, egg, and cheese on an everything bagel with ketchup at least once a week and they are the best I've ever had. The bagels are a great size for a sandwich, not too big or small, and the egg and pork roll is always cooked just the way I like, especially since I prefer both on the more well-done side. The service is also pretty quick, but it does get super busy and hectic around 10-11 am on Saturday & Sunday so either come earlier or plan to wait a little. read more

Delicious bagels. My go-to order is simple, a whole wheat everything with butter. Keep an eye on them if you want your bagel toasted like I do! Sometimes they forget. Or they toast the outside not the inside (?) --- Everything I've tried is good... except what is up with the coffee? It's nothing to write home about. Tastes artificially flavored, I only buy it if I didn't have enough time to make my morning cup at home. If they made better coffee I'd probably give 5 stars. I appreciate that they are open super early too. read more

Very nasty owner. I ordered two bagels with scallion cream cheese and got a pork roll and bagel with cream cheese. I drove home unknowing and then drove back after I realized I got the wrong order. The manager/owner did not care and refused to give me my money back. I told him that's not how you do business and he did not care. I will drive down the road to Manhattan Bagel for now on. Very poor service. read more

I love bagels that have very little to no center holes and on this point Bagel Express delivers. That is where it ends for me. These bagels are WAY undercooked to the point where it is just a lump of dough sitting in my stomach. The tops of the bagels are still raw looking and the everything bagels have very little topping on them. Very disappointed in this place. Anyone who knows bagels made the right way knows what I'm talking about. Premium dollar for a rock in my stomach! Please, please, PLEASE rethink your baking process! read more

So good. This is my favorite bagel place in town. They always knock it out if the park.

Talk about slow and confused. This place has been here forever. Wasn't even busy and it seemed like it was the first day it was open with all new people. Messing up people's orders and just waiting way too long for simple orders. Sitting at table while waiting for my to go order and young girl slams a plate of food in front of me. Take the attitude to the person who actually ordered it cause I didn't. Last time I will be here. read more

Being a milltown resident this is my go to bagel place! They are always so polite and the bagels are so fresh. Yesterday I placed a large order of bagels for our school. The staff here was beyond nice and accommodating! Our breakfast was so much better because of their bagels. We teachers thank you! read more

Tremendously friendly service. I get bagels here every Sunday morning for my church. The food is excellent and very affordable. I praise GOD for them! read more

Fast service, delicious bagels, and cheap prices for their sandwiches. Love this place.

I come here every time I visit friends over in New Brunswick and not once have I had a bad experience. The service there is exceptional and they always say hi when you walk inside. The coffee and bagels are always fresh and they never over cook anything. read more

Have had many sandwiches and bagels and have never been displeased with the quality or quantity for the price. Quality little local place where the owner knows most of the clinetele by name and will bring out cookies and desserts to try. read more

I have a gluten allergy and love the fact that they offer a gluten free option.

Live in this area and have been struggling to find a bagel shop that I like. The bagels here are awesome. Get an egg sandwich on a bagel and add some hash browns on it. You won't be sorry! read more

Delicious Bagels, very nice staff and accommodating manager. Will definitly come back.

This is hands down the best bagel place around! Every place in new Brunswick is terrible, tried many places in east Brunswick and they were terrible too. This place makes the most delicious bagels! read more

Fast, accurate and awesome every time. Everyone who works here is super nice too. Bagels are perfect ratio of crispy and chewy.

Great bagels. Very friendly service. Opens on time. Glad i found this shop. Kindly, Terri

very good. the cinnamon raisin bagel did wonders. nice sitting area also. very welcoming

Friendly staff, quick service, good prices. Love the egg everything bagels.

Not every bagel is created equal. Bagel Express bagels are a bit crunchy on the outside and soft in the middle. Baked on premise to perfection. The owner and staff are friendly, service is fast and they will make you whatever sandwich you like. I usually get a cooked breakfast sandwich (eggs, bacon, pork roll etc.) on a bagel or a bagel sandwich with Boars Head brand meats and cheese. I pass many other bagel shops to get here. They also have good muffins. I don't drink coffee but there is a large selection of other drinks. read more

The bagels are perfect here! Chewy on the inside and crisp on the outside. Always a good chance of getting them while they're still hot. Reasonable prices and nice staff. Wish I had tried them years ago! read more
