Bagel pub is my favorite place to get bagels. Every time I come here it's busy but it's definitely worth it to wait. I usually order in advance online and then just pick it up there to skip the line. The bagels are amazing and they have a big selection of cream cheese varieties and spreads and all I tried so far were delicious. As you can see in the pictures the staff put a lot of cream cheese on the bagel and that's amazing. Besides that you can even get drinks like coffee and smoothies here. They have a few tables outside right now where you can sit and eat. Definitely a 5 star spot in crown heights! read more

Love bagel pub!! Really consistent! The food is great every time! I usually get the bacon egg and cheese on a poppy seed bagel with a hulk smoothie. Both are amazing!! Fast service and great food!! Definitely recommend read more

Favorite Sunday morning breakfast. The lines are usually long if you go in the morning but they move relatively quickly. The bagels are always fresh and soft (I love their blueberry bagel!) and they have what feels like thousands of cream cheese options and spreads. I always order a Hulk smoothie, which taste fresh and delicious. They have a variety of fruit juices and smoothie options. I will warn you that you need to keep an eye out for your drink order. When this place is packed, the staff is a little overwhelmed and you need to be on top of your order. Your food might come out before or after your drinks, just pay attention. The food and the drinks here are fantastic, the service is solid, if at times crazed, but they're trying, I tend to give them a break. It's the best place. I'm always here on Sunday mornings, take my food to go, and sit on a bench on Eastern Parkway or walk home and plant myself in front of the TV for relaxing (and cheap) morning at home. read more

My husband and I and in- laws have been coming to the Bagel Pub since they first opened. Although I never really am inspired to write reviews, today pushed me to another level of needing to let the community know. Bagel Pub has great bagels, delicious food but usually it's a long wait and wrong orders. In the past I've had horrible interactions with the cashier girl where I'd have to come back and argue about the price. They would charge $1-$2 more than what is advertised. I later caught on to tips added off my debit that wasn't asked for. It happened a few times that the girl recognizes me. After a nice break from Bagel Pub I started to come back, and today, the cashier was extremely rude, and slammed change into my hand after I asked why there was a price change between a debit and cash transaction. I was reminded why I took a break from here. She then smiled when I looked up to her. I asked for her name, and even if this is not her name, Diana has always made my experience at the Bagel Pub unpleasant. I don't ask for much, but I do demand respect. I'll find another spot to get my coffee and weekend bagels and breakfast. Thanks! ‍ read more

It's an amazing breakfast experience. Excellent food! They have outdoor seating. I feel like I am in Paris. Wait...even better! I am in beautiful Brooklyn. N,Y.! read more

6.2.17 Update: I gave this establishment another try, and they got the ingrediants right for my salad. However, the ingrediants were not cut, and I just received huge slices of portobello mushroom and roasted pepper. Salad is supposed to be cut into bite-sized pieces. Other than that, it was okay. UPDATE: After writing this review, I was promptly contacted by the owner Lauren K. She was apologetic about my experience, and she offered to give me a credit. She explained that they try to improve and that their ordering process is something that they are working on. I declined the credit, and I informed her that I will be giving this place another try. Her prompt response shows that she truly cares about the costumer experience, and that she is open to suggestions. Very courteous owner. Below, is my original review that will be updated upon me second experience with this establishment. My review is based only on the poor structure of the ordering process which inadvertently leads to incorrect order. This place has the most ineffective and frustrating order process that I have ever encountered in this type of establishment. Mostly in these types of bagel/salad places, you order your food, and you walk up with your receipt to the register in order to pay. In the other half of these types of establishments, you order at the register and wait for your food to be prepared. Also, when you order a salad, which is what I did, you watch the individual put the ingredients in front of you. This prevents the individual from making a mistake and/or missing ingredients. Well, not in this place. Here, you wait in line facing the backs of understandably busy workers, and if you are lucky someone becomes available so that you tell them your order. They give you a piece of paper with scribbled hand writing, and you are told to proceed to the register with this paper. You wait in a second line with this paper, and then you give it to the person at the register. The cashier attempts to figure out what you asked the previous individual to write on that paper and you once again have to repeat the order, and only then will your order be sent to the same station that you just came from with your scribbled paper. What's the point? I know this may seem confusing, but I was confused as well when I stood for a while with this paper without a clue. The worst part is that I paid a $20 for a wrong salad with a medium fresh squeezed orange juice. The salad was missing more than half of the ingredients and it had Italian dressing instead of separate balsamic vinegar and olive oil. I asked both the cashier and the person who wrote the order to make sure to write that I want olive oil and balsamic vinegar. No, it's not all the same thing, because the olive oil and balsamic vinegar do not have all the salt and other stuff the other dressings have. Missing one ingredient is forgivable, but missing most of the ingredients and substituting some ingredients (i.e. giving fresh papers instead of roast peppers) and pouring a heaving amount of the wrong dressing is not acceptable. I try to eat healthy, and I buy a salad for lunch every day. I have one hours lunch, and I did not enjoy spending most of it standing in two lines that served no purpose. I am not a rude person, but I do expect to receive what paid for. read more

The quality of their food is excellent. Their bread is fresh and soft, the creams are well kept and never overflowing or messy, their veggies and garnishes are always crisp and clean. The service is friendly and fast, even if you walk in 3 minutes before closing. My new go-to in the neighborhood. read more

I'm at this store ever weekend with my friends and we als ways try new bagels all the bagels are really good! Especially the LOX#2! Quick and good service! I was never disappointed best bagel shop in Brooklyn read more

I was extremely disappointed to know that pets (not service animals) are allowed in this location. I was sitting and enjoying my food when another patron allowed his dog to lay under the table next to me. I asked the cashier if they allow pets (NOT referring to service animals, which should be allowed) and she confirmed. "As long as they hold on to them," pets are allowed. I highly question the sanitary procedures in a location that allows pets. Yes, they're cute and cuddly... but not when they're shaking pet dander in the air and (eventually) over my food. The bagels are good (nothing extraordinary) and the staff is always kind, but pets and food are a deal-breaker for me. read more

Seriously, I'm a bagel aficionado and this is by far one of the BEST spots I've been in NYC. Today I got a toasted sesame bagel with bacon, egg, and chipotle cream cheese. I felt weird getting it but it was honestly phenomenal. It gets super crowded especially on a weekend morning but the staff is well organized and diligent. I wish there was more room to wait for your order but it's no big deal. They also have a great juice/smoothie/coffee selection however I do not recommend the banana latte. It's a tad pricey - especially for that area I feel like. But honestly, well worth it - and you'll stay full for hours. read more

The bagel pub has limitless options for your ordering- sandwiches, salads, smoothies, bagels- the list goes on and on! However, you cannot get out of here in less than 20 minutes. This goes for any order, a bagel a sandwich a smoothie, something always holds up your order. Without fail the 10-15 times I have been here I have never made it out with ease. The food is good, not the best bagel in the city but definitely good for the neighborhood. I mean do you have 20-30 minutes? If you're not in a rush make your way to bagel pub, otherwise you might want to go elsewhere! read more

WOWZA!!!!! What a bagel place. Very delicious and yummy bagels. You'll never complain they didn't give you enough cream cheese. Cold brew coffee was just as good. Let's say that I was extremely hungover this morning and this place hit the spot. Fixed my soul. read more

Hands down my favorite bagel place in all of New York City. Bagels are always fresh and they have soooo many cream cheese options. Their chipotle cream cheese is EVERYTHING! Plus great smoothies and chai tea. read more

This place slapped. So simple, quick, and great quality. Huge selection of different bagels and cream cheeses. You had so many options between savory and sweet combos. I went for the sesame bagel with bacon and green onion cream cheese while my friend chose a raisin bagel with cinnamon sugar cream cheese. The bagels are also so big that you could honestly eat half and save the other half for later. They do not go easy on the cream cheese either. It's like a solid inch of cream cheese. I would definitely come back here. A great place to visit if you need a quick bite too there was no line. read more

New review (4stars): You have improved. We still can walk out with our food and drink but we're not that kind of people. Service is much better though. Food has always been great. Thank you for the improvement. Rock on! Old Review (2 Stars) SLOW! sooo SLOW! No one greets you and everyone so slow! I literally could've walked out without paying for food more than I can count. So you guys running the joint should look into it. I believe in karma so I try to get the cashiers attention so I can pay. 4.5 stars for food. Service is Wack. I'll change rating when I get charged for my food without me asking to pay. read more

Love this place. Great combinations of bagels and spreads, the breakfast sandwiches are amazing, and there's fresh juice and a salad bar. It can get super busy, especially on the weekends, so plan to wait. They also deliver. The whitefish and tuna salads are both amazing. I love the mixed berry cream cheese spread. The bagels are perfect. Hmm...not much else to say, but check them out for breakfast sometime. read more

There is a reason why Bagel Pub is always crowded on the weekend. They make awesome bagels, always fresh, and perfectly toasted. Their cream cheese selection is very diverse, every sweet and savory flavor you can think of. My personal favorite is the scallion lox cream cheese on a toasted sesame bagel. So good! They also make bomb smoothies, you have to try the hulk green smoothie. The hulk + bagel + iced coffee combo will cure any hangover. Seriously. :) Sometimes it takes a bit to get your bagel, but it is worth it. Thankful to have Bagel Pub as my neighborhood bagel shop. read more

Food is good, although pricing is sometimes inconsistent and overall ordering can be a disaster. For instance, I've tried to place an order through GrubHub and over the phone today and I've had zero success. GrubHub gives a message saying restaurant is closed and order can't be placed, phone is off the hook so there is a steady busy signal any time I call. Sadly this is a regular occurrence. If I walk to the pub right now there is probably 3 or 4 customers on line. This too has happened before. I guess the staff feels it's ok to snub customers if they feel they've had enough for the day. Terrible business practices and it sucks for people who have limited time and need to grab and go instead if standing on a line to order and then wait. Used to go here often but my visits are now very sporadic read more

Great bagels but this place is painfully slow on weekend mornings. I've never waited as long as I have here. Even for simple orders. I'd come more often if they had a better system for moving customers through. Also, the cream cheese looks great (there are many options) but is overpriced. Get it somewhere else. read more

Bagel Pub just open up I believe a week ago. I wanted to see if they can size up with Bergen Bagels. I waltz in the establishment walk to the back to order my blueberry bagel with tofu cream cheese. You have to pay at the front register where you can order smoothies, ice coffee, hot coffee and fresh squeezed juices. It's hipster City at Bagel Pub Hipsters love bagels and coffee lol!! My only gripe with Bagel Pub is their bagels are kinda small to me. I'm used to eating a bagel where I'm full until lunch time!! Bergen bagels haven't let me down in this area I'm just saying. This small bagel is not going to cut it for me. The bagel was good soft in the inside and crispy on the outside but nothing to rave about. I'll give the smoothies, fresh squeezed juices and salad a shot in the near future. read more

I rolled around my tiny little high school with the hottest girl on my arm. I thought I was something special. Then I went off to college in the city and I realized that there wasn't anything special about high school me. That girl on my arm, she was small potatoes compared to the city girls. I broke up with her via AOL instant messenger and never looked back. So what does this have to do with Bagel Pub? Well, in similar fashion, I rolled around Tampa thinking that I knew what a good bagel was. It took me four hours in New York to realize that those "bagels" I was eating were nothing more than tiny little crust rocks. They were small grains of wheat compared to the Bagel Pub bagels. I was sent to Bagel Pub with a huge list of food for the still sleeping mass of people at the apartment I was staying in. While I waited to order, I noticed the case right in front of the ordering area was full of what I initially thought was gelato. Weird that they would have gelato at a bagel place. Then it dawned on me, that wasn't gelato. That was the cream cheese for the bagels. There were mounds and mounds of different cream cheese flavors. Little bacon pieces and walnut pieces and chives adorned the top of these mounds. Very impressive, if you are into that sort of thing. I read off my list of bagels to the man taking the orders. Some had cream cheeses, some were meat covered, some were vegan, one had peanut butter. Some were toasted, some were not. I was a bit nervous considering some of the other reviews on here mentioned Bagel Pubs knack for messing up orders. After I paid and was given my sack of bagels, I checked to make sure everything was right. Despite the difficulty of the order, everything was perfect. My bagel of choice was a plain pumpernickel everything one. The bagel was huge. It had a nice crispy exterior and an extremely soft, chewy interior (I did not have it toasted). The pumpernickel was extremely muted. I expected it to be a strong flavor, possibly overpowering the "everything" but instead it just sort of nudged the bagel closer to a truly "everything" taste. The other two Floridians were extremely impressed with their bagels as well (one a blueberry, one a cinnamon raisin with peanut butter). Right after we finished, the three of us took turns logging on to AOL Instant Messenger and breaking up with Panera (don't judge us based on our chainstore bagels!). My only regret about Bagel Pub is that I had but one meal to spend there. That and I missed the extremely discounted day old bagels they sell at night. read more

New place selling overpriced bagels and juice, is sure to be a runaway success in this now thoroughly gentrified strip of Crown Heights. -Weird, not exactly friendly employees. Was ignored while standing alone in front of the bagel counter for a good 3-5 minutes until I was finally greeted by a look that said "what's your f***ing deal?" Uh, hi. Can I please pay you for a bagel? Forgive me. I'm so sorry to bother you. -Prices vary? Paid 4.50 for a bagel with lox one day, 9.50 the next. Still not totally sure what happened. -Zero organization or indication of where to order what, where to pay for what, etc. -Not sure what makes this place a "pub" if they aren't selling pints. -Bagels were fine. +1 star If you absolutely need a bagel on Franklin ave, try the spot next to Little Zelda. Forget this place. read more

This is sort of a long story, so I hope y'all are ready. Today was my only day off from work so I slept late, preparing to wake up past noon and laze around. Unfortunately, my brother decided to be an irresponsible hooligan and come home at 6am after losing his phone. So he couldn't go into work - which is our parents store, by Bagel Pub. So of course, my mom calls me to wake me up and asks me to come in instead. Although I found my brother in his room sleeping, he decides to take his sweet time leaving and going on a search for his phone. I generally try to eat somewhat healthy, but today I decided I deserved a good first meal. So I went to Bagel Pub to order a whole wheat bagel with one egg, 2 egg whites, cheddar, sausage, spinach/kale, tomatoes, and onions. I'm guessing the guy only heard the vegetables after I mentioned "egg whites," probably assuming I wanted a clean meal. Because my bagel came without the good stuff - cheddar and sausage. I took it to go, so I wasn't about to go back and complain. I guess the universe was telling me to eat healthy. The bagel didn't taste bad or anything, but egg whites and vegetables on bread isn't exactly flavorful. I also got the small beet punch. It's more like a lemon punch. It's pretty damn sour. I thought it was somewhat drinkable, because I have a (self-proclaimed) high sour tolerance. Either way, after like 1/4 of the cup, I had to add some splenda. I added more than half a packet and it's still pretty sour. Maybe it's always sour, or maybe the girl just accidentally added too much lemon. I will never know, because I won't get it again. TLDR: Man forgot 2 (of the best) things in my bagel & beet punch is too sour. read more

Good bagels, very friendly staff, but so poorly run. Their system (one line to order, one line to pay, then you wait for your order) isn't uncommon, it's just that they are uncommonly bad at it: they mess something up pretty much every time I go there, and that's the general consensus I hear from my neighborhood friends as well. And it's not for lack of staff: there's always a ton of people working there, all of whom are super nice, apologetic, and trying to be helpful. But they're often running around, disorganized, like chickens with their heads cut off, and that's how things get messed up. Clearly needs better management. I'll still go here as there are no better options in the area, but I'd go more often if I knew it wasn't going to be a hassle every time. read more

Hooray! After I posted my review, Bagel Pub contacted me thanking me for alerting them about their needing to follow the customer's order more closely. I've gone back a few times and my order has been perfect each time. I'm a very happy customer. My favorite thing to order is a toasted poppy seed bagel with the cranberry apple tuna salad. They give a generous portion of tuna salad. I also love getting a watermelon lemonade. They juice watermelon right into the lemonade when you order. The drink is wonderfully fresh and a great summer drink. read more

Improved wait time and I think the male manager with the tattoos is the reason-- he is service-oriented and efficient. I've seen him jump in and help out in a variety of roles: from taking orders, manning the register, to making food. Bagels are still great. Please put prices on the drink board. read more

Oh em gee! This was bagel heaven! It could be the fact I starved all day to have one for lunch or because it was just really that good! I'm originally from queens and my husband is a raised brooklynite who's very proud of his borough. We decided I should try an authentic bagel and reading the reviews for this place persuaded us this should pop m Brooklyn bagel cherry. I couldn't be happier! I got the everything bagel with bacon cheddar cream cheese and it was a masterpiece of flavors. The salty, savory, tangy, was right up my alley. Even my husbands eyes widened in amazement at how good the bagel was. Toasted crunchy outside and gooey chewy bread inside. My husband had the jalepeno cream cheese and poppy bagel which was good but nothing in comparison to mine. Will definitely go back! And the staff were super friendly and adorable to talk to! read more

LOVE their bagels. Amazing food. Won't go anywhere else for bagels. I'd love to be able to them 5 stars but the counter service is terrible. At checkout, the women always cop an attitude and treat customers like we're interrupting their phone calls, chit-chatting or other activities outside of actually helping customers. Don't ask them anything or you'll get dirty looks and whispers from the counter staff. read more

Excellent egg and cheese bagel. Chai latte was incredible. Will absolutely return! Juice does take longe Ethan coffee but still quick.

Disappointing experience! It's run by a manager that's laughing and playing instead of organizing his workers. There's no way you have three staff members all making orders and a line of people waiting. When approaching the manager he looked bewildered and offered no solutions. Owner's response--- Far from the Truth! There's no direction in the establishment. How could I skip, jump or doing anything if I'm waiting with people who has placed an order? Second, what line? It wasn't to after 10 minutes of waiting that I had to ask where to order. Third, I could figure I would get a response from an establishment like this. Also, I noticed some health code issues! It was probably better if you didn't respond. read more

I mean... there are better bagels. This is NYC after all (not to mention in the Jewish capital that is Crown Heights). BUT.... there are sooooo many options. Cream cheese - sandwiches - wraps - smoothies - coffee - probably foie gras, but I haven't checked. And yes, I know we're bagel snobs in this city, but these bagels are just fine. Even grade A if you are still mildly drunk from a few too many beers at Crown the night before. *** Best place to bring a group to grab breakfast or lunch on your way to Prospect Park. There's something for everyone. read more

I been to this bagel pub multiple times. Every time the bagels are delicious and they have a high variety of spreads. The are usually pretty busy, specially on weekends, but the line moves quickly most of the time. The biggest problem i have encounter is that they dont pay attention to the order!!! i went this morning and order a cinnamon raisin bagel with honey walnut cream cheese. I order it to go, and when i got home and open the bag and saw a croissant instead of a bagel! Like really? checked the order and it clearly said cinnamon raisin bagel! i was very very disappointed and this is the second time it happens. Conclusion: i do recommended this place BUT CHECK YOUR ORDER BEFORE YOU LEAVE THE STORE. read more

When I walked in I could tell this must be one of the more upcoming and trendy spots in the neighborhood. Very clean, organized, and helpful service make way for some terrific food. Granted, we only got breakfast munchies, but they really were finely prepared and presented. I had the Breakfast Quesadilla and it was flavorful, fresh and filling. We also got the ABC Omelet Breakfast Sandwich and the combination of Avocado, Bacon, and Cheddar in a wrap really works. Even the coffee was a delight. I'm going back soon. read more

Everything pumpernickel bagel with lox spread for $4? Yup. I love this place. Super cool vibe, well-made food, usually-super-friendly staff except sometimes when it gets particularly busy and fast-paced. But at that point they're just churning out food and coffee as fast as they can, which I believe is the right priority with a line of hungry impatient New Yorkers. I live a few blocks away and this is one of those spots that I make sure to show everyone who visits me for the first time. read more
