My doctor recommended Bagel Master since he used to live in the area. I live closer to Bagel Boss but I'll be stopping by Bagel Master more often. They have better seasoning and their bagels have a crunchy texture. I also like that they have adequate indoor seating so you can enjoy your bagel on site. My husband and I ordered their Whole Wheat Everything and Egg Everything bagels and they did not disappoint. I saw that they offer a Russian Pumpernickel bagel so I'll get that next time to see if it's any different from the traditional Pumpernickel. read more

They will get your order wrong every single time. Wanted sunny side up eggs? Too bad your getting an omelette. They'll toast your bagel dark, doesn't matter if you wanted toasted or not. They're stingy with avocado--THAT THEY UNCHARGE YOU FOR--, mayo, and cream cheese. Its literally a waste of money to order here because they'll give you the wrong thing EVERY SINGLE TIME. EVERY SINGLE TIME!!!!! DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE. They literally cannot follow directions. Idk if they're just dumb or high but they literally cannot fill full an order to order! read more

Bagel Master - Ordered sunny-side up, not toasted, w//w avocado. NOPE! They upcharged for avocado. Unacceptable incompetence - Bakeries Near Me - Syosset, New York

I always stop here for a bagel breakfast and coffee when I'm in town. (I visit twice in a year.) Love their ham, pepper jack, cream cheese, and jalapeños, on a toasted salt bagel. Kinda a fat breakfast sandwich, but oh so good tasting! All hail Bagel Master! read more

I have been coming for a while because I live close by. In the past year every pickup order I've placed has been made incorrectly. The past two times when it was made incorrectly I asked for it to be remade and it was still not made correctly. Additionally service is slow, I've consistently had to wait over 20 minutes for phone orders. Most of the workers are completely incompetent as well. read more

This is one of my go-to bagel places for me and my family and friends for so long! I've loved their sandwiches and varieties and it's always delicious for brunch! Everything comes out hot and the service is quick which is great. There's also a cash discount. They have a lot of support for the community such as the high school which is fun to see as well. Sometimes it's crowded but that makes sense for this popular place and is worth the wait! read more

This place is ruining my diet, because their breakfast sandwiches are so good!! LOL. Service is great and friendly, my order is always correct and it's my new go-to for the family. I've lived in the area my whole life but usually go to East Norwich Bagels (also great). I haven't had to deal with the rush because I'm usually there early, but I can see how the set up could be improved. Besides that, 10/10 from me! Please add low carb rolls & turkey bacon to the menu so I can continue coming here and not feel so guilty! Also- my husband is a bagel fanatic and raved about the egg everything! read more

Under new management with a guy with an attitude. There is no low fat chicken salad as offered on delivery menus, they don't make it. Reduced fat cream cheese is also regularly not available, yet offered on menu. Matzoh ball soup was spoiled and I got food poisoning from it. Who knows what else they're misleading people about. Highly advise steering clear of this place. Not what it once was. read more

Definitely not a master of bagels. More like a novice as these "bagels" were definitely not boiled. The texture of the "bagels" were that of a roll. read more

Have had Bagel Master on my radar for quite some time. Unfortunately did not live up to my expectations. The store is clean & the staff was beyond friendly. Bagels were fresh but very dry. Everything bagel was appropriately seeded & salted. Egg bagel had a great flavor but was dry. Would potentially give another shot. Parking lot is small but easy to navigate. Location is convenient & close to LIRR station. read more

Great food made quickly, Fair price and extremely friendly staff! One of the BEST bagel shop I have stumbled upon. As a construction worker traveling to different towns I've tried a lot of bagel shops and this one is definitely in the top 3! First I tried a egg sandwich on a bagel it was perfect, the bagel was great and it was ready in 5 minutes. Prices are very fair and the service it TOP NOTCH!!! Very very friendly staff. The only downside is I live an hour away. Thanks for the great food and being so nice! read more

FINAL STRAW last week. Came in asked for Bagel w/ cream cheese NOT TOASTED. (When you toast a bagel and spread cream cheese on it - the cream cheese gets all messy and falls out when you bite into it. UGH) . Medium aged lady behind counter assured me it would not be toasted. Passes order to another worker . I pay. I leave. I walk over to Starbucks - open it up -- and ................ TOASTED with cream cheese melted all over the inner wrapper . YUM! I guess I have to go back to the bagel shop next to the movie theatre (more expensive - but they never screw up) . Get it together B. Master. read more

The menu sports bagels, muffins, cookies, challah, blintzes, breakfast sandwiches, more savory daytime sandwiches, and a deli selection of all the salads (think tuna salad, egg salad, etc.), and all the smoked fish you can think of. Not to mention a bunch of cream cheese varieties to take home or smear on your bagel! I've never had Sable before (smoked cod), and theirs even beat out my usual favorite lox. If you're looking for something sweet, they only have 1 sweet bagel (cinnamon raisin) and 2 types of sweet cream cheeses (cinnamon raisin and walnut raisin)-- still delicious! The bagels are chewy and delightful untoasted, but you can also request toasted. They have egg bagels and gluten free varieties~ Service is utilitarian-- not the friendliest, can take a while to complete bigger orders, and they messed up our order both visits we made during the weekend (wrong cream cheese, forgetting bagels in our order). But they are quite busy! Bagel Master has been there for decades, but I think some way to make the ordering process more efficient would be beneficial. Good news is that you can call ahead with your order to pick up, especially on the weekends! I'd go back for their smoked fish and to try their other deli salads that make them stand out! read more

Extremely poor experience I was in line with a woman and her daughter who were extremely annoying asking if they had diet bagels and when she was told no she goes make it extra extra extra extra scooped repeated it after the order was done not even with a please or thank you so rude to the employee and then I had to go pick my bagel up from the other side of the counter when I had more food to pay for than a woman with a TooGoodToGo order literally rushed in front of me 2nd customer I was in line before her she was the last person there so that was my experience with that called in a Specific order which was a Everything flagel with chicken salad cheddar cheese lettuce Red not white onion(which I got a mix of) & tomato specifically red onions I asked for they give me chunks of tomato with a burned everything bagel which was disgusting because I ordered a everything Falgel which was extra $$ Won't be coming here again as I had ordered almost $40 extra worth of extra food for the family do better this was an awful experience after coming here for soooooo many years such a waste of time and now charge me extra as well here's the receipt Besides the grab and go containers of tuna salad egg salad and scallion cream cheese a ginger ale and tropicana orange juice I had bought Very disappointed. I'll stick with bagel boss or brendels of Syosset from now on Also would like to know why I was charged two separate charges on the receipt if you look at it very strange would like to know what that no tax $2.25 charge is? Not tax as you can see in the third photo it showing different charges for things I haven't even asked for or added on besides what I said bunch of thieves! read more

While spending the weekend in LI, we tried two bagel spots in the area - Bagel Master and Village Bagel. At both places, I ordered a sesame bagel with lox, red onion, scallion cream cheese and cucumber. I found Bagel Master's bagel to be too hard, flat, and chewy for my taste. I much preferred the bagel from Village which was softer and fuller. However, the lox at Bagel Master was out of this world! Without the lox, this would be a two-star review, maybe one-star. A Village sesame bagel with Bagel Master lox would truly be the perfect sandwich. The sandwich came with a little side of macaroni salad which was way too sweet for me. I gave it to my wife and she couldn't eat it either. Blechhh. I wish I was given a choice of sides. Like other reviews have mentioned, I found Bagel Master's ordering system to be confusing. I thought I was in line but apparently I wasn't, and then when my order was finally taken, I wasn't told when or where to pay. So I stood off to the side, waited about 10 minutes before checking on my food near the window and they said it was ready and I would have to enter the line again to pay at the register up front. I also didn't find the service to be friendly in the least. The guy with the Russian-sounding accent was jerky and unwelcoming. Edge - Village. read more

Bagel Master - Bakeries Near Me - Syosset, New York

Plenty of breakfast options here along with a variety of bagels. It's best to check out their website so you can see their wide selection. Another reason I like this place is because of their assorted cream cheese selections. I've been fortunate during the morning hours where it is not to crowded and I am able to order quickly and receive my order quickly. The parking is small perhaps about 10 spaces but no worries CVS is right next door so I've parked there and head over here. read more

The food was amazing and I will never forget the taste! They sell many good drinks and food. It's also not only bagels, there is a lot of things that you can buy! I got the bagel with tuna, tomatoes, and lettuce! It was delicious! read more

This is my first time ordering delivery for a group from this place. From A to Z One word sums it up. OUTSTANDING... The bagels were very fresh even the next day. I will re-order from this place again. Prices also was very reasonable. read more

This place is awful!!! Went there in a pinch and discovered no parking..ok I parked at CVS and walked. The place was mobbed with parents and small, annoying kids that were standing in line, on iPad that were full blast. The people behind the counter were screaming next but people on line were too busy helping their offspring with their electronics! So I'm trying to give my order and finally, I'm done. I thought I would pay at the cashier by the door but the person taking my order took my money, in gloves, and gave me change. She did not change her gloves! Gross. So they are taking money and touching food with the same gloves. I wish I had seen this previously but the counter was so packed with crap on top, it was impossible!! read more

this is my favorite breakfast spot on long island. having moved away from new york years ago, i am sorely in need of decent bagels... and don't even get me started on the lack of bacneggncheese in the world! bagel master is my go-to whenever i'm back here. bagels: perfectly seasoned, perfect texture. tasty and fluffy without being dry, dense, or bland. perfectly toasted--not too hard, not too soft. these have structure and flavor. try the special cream cheeses that they have... you won't regret it. bacneggncheese: perfectly melty and yummy. salt, pepper, butter. crispy bacon, fluffy eggs, gooey cheese. absolute perfection. my favorite meal, honestly. staff: on fire, truly. the storefront is small and cramped (with delicious goodies lining the walls and counters), especially when it gets busy. which, it seems to always be. every single person behind the counter is polite, friendly, helpful, and on-the-ball. so well-run. it's rare to find kind and efficient service with top-notch product. please stop in and don't forget to tip! read more

The Bagel Master.. the absolute best. They supported my school and gave us whatever we needed. The bagels are delicious and I was very happy! read more

Bagels are good thats why i go often. Service is great- nice friendly staff. Place is always busy.

This is my hands down, absolutely favorite bagel store on Long Island. I've been coming here for 25 years and it's just as good as it was then. Egg sandwiches are delicious - eggs are fluffy. The bagels are slightly doughy inside and have a bite on the outside. My absolutely favorite is the everything flagel. This time I got it with cream cheese, lox, red onion and tomatoes. So good! I devoured the whole gigantic bagel. I washed it down with some fresh coffee. My husband and I fight about which bagel store is better (Bagel Master or his local store where he grew up) but I will never let him win! read more

Close to home. My favorite whole wheat everything bagels . Only problem is, every time I go there, no matter how big or small the order is, it is NEVER correct! I stopped going here for a while because of this and said, let me try once more. BIG mistake, I even wrote down my order and handed it to the girl. Came home, opened everything up, not right! Yuk! Won't be back. read more

I took on their brand new sandwhich challenge. It was filled with bacon, eggs, cheese, ham, and sausage and all in massive Challah bread! It was hefty but every lb of it was extremely tasty! The owner could not have been a nicer guy which always makes the experience better. read more

Bagel Master - Social distancing markers - Bakeries Near Me - Syosset, New York

Great fresh bagels, salads and sides. Go to place in the area. Staff is courteous and efficient. Only criticism, the fresh orange juice has been turned on more than one occasion. Management has taken the complaint graciously and extended a credit, but may be time to switch their distributor. read more

Bagel Master is the absolute best. A staple of my childhood and STILL one of my favorite places. There is nothing that particularly stands out when you first walk in. The ambiance is authentic, nothing flashy. Just your local deli-style bagel joint where you can run into people from around town or pick up a copy of the paper. I love that it's all about the food and the people here. AND it is maybe one of the only places on Long Island where I don't feel guilty eating out. The price is super reasonable and they often give you a free bagel, coffee, or side with whatever you order. Have I mentioned they have not been closed a single day in years? The bagels are fresh and varied in flavor. I always get a toasted whole wheat everything flagel (yes they have flat bagels! I like them because they are a little crisper) with egg and cheese, tuna salad, or lox and cream cheese, but if I'm feeling a healthy meal they also have good lettuce wraps or salads! And ALWAYS their hazelnut or very vanilla iced coffee (I sometimes go out of my way when I am not close just to get their delicious iced coffee. SO GOOD). I put some almond milk in mine but it's great black too. My favorite part about Bagel Master aside from the food is the people who work there. The owner, Vadim, really makes an effort to get to know his customers and is so easy to talk to. I do not know the names of the ladies who work the counter but they are so sweet and have been there for years. They know my coffee order, my sister's coffee order, and my mother's coffee order. When people ask me about the town of Syosset, you better believe Bagel Master is one of the first things I tell them. Truly makes Syosset go round. AND the entire inside is covered with photos of Syosset High School winning sports teams from the last few years. Does not get any more wholesome. We love you Bagel Master! read more

They personally made up for the mistakes, made a sandwich properly and even blessed it up with breakfast. Which I really appreciate! Thank you. read more

Close to LIRR. Now forgetting salt, pepper napkins, and a fork for my lox. Btw no tables at a distance? Teach staff to add condiments. The amount of lox was 1/2 of last time. read more

I stopped at Bagel Master the other morning for coffee and a bagel to go. The line was very long and the servers behind the counter very slow, much preferring to chitchat with the regulars than to actually fill orders. The coffee is just OK and the bagels are tasty but rather on the small side. read more

You won't find better service or bagels anywhere else. This place is a gem!!! Armen is an amazing business owner who keeps the refrigerators stocked with myriad beverage options and the shelves full of delicious bakery goods. Back in NY for only two days we stopped in for breakfast our first morning and had delicious hot coffee and bagels. We left talking about how good the bagels were and how friendly the owner was to us even though we were just passing through. When we arrived on our second morning, Armen greeted us and thanked us for coming back. He remembered us and congratulated us on the wedding for which we'd returned to NY. He even presented us with bagels as a parting gift to take back to NC. If you are anywhere close to Bagel Master in Syosset you really need to treat yourself (I recommend the baked salmon) by stopping in and enjoying great food served up with a smile. read more

Love this business! Their bagels are delicious! I especially love their tuna salad! (and I'm very picky about tuna salad) The owner is super nice and accommodating. I have an out-of-town relative who misses Bagel Master's bagels and specialty cream cheeses. He shipped a 'care package' overnight for us to her! So grateful! read more

Thank God it's only about 5 weeks until January when I can get back on weight watchers ( haha! That's a weird perspective & way to look at it I know :-). In any case.. I've been allowing myself to indulge in our Lawg Island bagels on a regular basis lately. I Went at about 11:00 am on a Wednesday & what I would think would still be a good time of day to get a relatively fresh bagel . They were just okay . When I go to my usual bagel places closer to home I seem to get them very fresh at all hours of day. I wouldn't not come here again but if I had the choice.... I'd wait till I was back in my hometown to indulge . read more

If you want the usual tasteless, wonderbread sort of Bagels that have become the standard on LI don't come here! If you are interested in what a REAL Bagel should taste like, and the proper texture of quality ingredients....close your eyes and TASTE the WW, the Pumpernickel, the Rye, etc. flours, NOT the all taste the same mostly white, tiny crumb, super soft bagels fore sale in most places! I have no Jewish ancestry, but have lived on LI most of my life and I will tell you if you want to know what a TRUE bagel should taste like, what the "mouth feel" should be then you must come to the experts! Since I started to work in the area over 30 years ago I have found the only Bagel worthy of the name. Yes, parking can be an issue, yes the line in the store can be out the door, and though the staff tries it's hardest somtimes an overly fussy, feeling entitled well dressed customer can and will take VERY long to be satisfied, but if you want a 'proper' bagel these are the trials one must endure! The silver lining is that if you get the same simple thing every time and are there fairly regularly the staff begins to see you 'first' and knowing you have your proper amount of money ready they will often jump a customer or 2 to pass you a bag expecting your $ in same exchange! I have frequently parked a full size school bus in the CVS parking lot, picked up my 'naked' everything WW flat and been back on the bus in under 5 min.! LOVE and MISS you guys @ Bagel Master! Home in Amityville there are 3 'bagel' shops and not one comes close to your Bagels!!! read more

I've been going to Bagel Master for almost a year. The store has been a fixture in the community for over three decades. It has become part of my mine now also. I've never seen so much friendly interaction with customers here than any other business. Ever. I've always been happy with the service, but I'm equally impressed by their wide-ranging offerings. Their cream cheeses are amazing. Their fish and lox is of the highest quality and fresh daily. There is nothing like a perfectly heated bagel or even sandwich just how you like it. They're also always trying new things and creating a new dish or two. They'll have special menus for holidays. On the shelves, you'll also see items from local food businesses all over Long Island. Lastly but not least, personally my favorite part is the bits of sports decorations. Natives like Sue Bird and Adam Schefter have visited in the last month! There's just more than meets the eye with Bagel Master. It really is more than just a bagel store. read more

Bagels themselves are pretty good. I usually got one with eggs or smoked lox whenever I went to get one. Do I think they're the best bagels I've ever had? Def not.. but for the price, it's pretty reasonable and their variety is good.. I gave 1 star though because the customer service is absolutely atrocious. Unless they truly know you personally as a customer and you're either their friend or inside their inner social circle, they're either neutral towards you or straight up treat you like garbage. And that's ridiculous considering we are all your customers at the end of the day, paying with our own money, and I had even been coming here on & off for 5+ years due to the location proximity. It's wild to think I would encounter high school-like cliques, as petty as they are, within a bagel store like this but here we are. An older male employee with glasses (who I now think may be the owner of the store?) gave me such an attitude, walked off mid-sentence when I was still ordering, and even had the audacity to throw my card back at me on the counter as if he was grossed out by either the card or me... If I was rude or doing anything offensive, I wouldn't even be complaining. It's the fact that I was politely waiting in line and then ordering normally just like any other person that makes me wonder what was going on with him that day or if his personality/customer service behavior is just regularly like that. On top of that, a few of my orders were missing items or not done according to how I had ordered it. Customer service, at least to me, inevitably makes up a huge part of the consumer experience and luckily for me, this place is nowhere near the only bagel store on LI. Needless to say, I will never be back anymore. read more
