Bagel talk was fine. Coming from a state that has some of the best bagels there is obviously no comparison. The bagels were smaller than the typical bagel but they were crispy and flavorful. The store hours are a bit late opening in the morning on the weekends especially considering the amount of other places in the area you could choose for breakfast. There is ample parking and it is easy to find. read more

In a strip mall, service was attentive and a casual spot to eat. Bagels are smaller than expected and not really topped well for the variety offered. My Salt bagel hardly had anything on it. Breakfast sandwich was average but the cheese had a weird color and taste to it. Not impressed. read more

Yeah I need to stop ordering from here- every few months, I try again and i always regret it. Last order , my bacon egg and cheese sandwich was not good- the bacon isn't pork bacon and whatever they use just isn't tasty- it's salty and just not quality. The coffee is whatever, nothing special. I ordered chicken tenders once and I threw them out because of how much breading was used- also inconsistencies cause one time they were flat and done well and the next time, they were not the same size, texture and very different. Ordered a muffin and it tasted old and dusty. Service is fast and friendly but not worth spending money there read more

Worst service ever gave my order to somebody else and then looked at me like it my fault that they gave the order to the wrong person. Definitely don't go here if you want good service. read more

Manager provided great customer service. Placed an order on Uber eats for pick up order came over with the mistake. He corrected it, fixed the problem and gave me my new order. read more

Our go to bagel shop! They don't just sell the best bagels, but a variety of breakfast and lunch items. The bagels are so good here that every time I host out of town guests I have to buy 3 dozen or more just so my guests can take some home with them. My brother in-law can eat half a dozen in one sitting. If you want breakfast before your morning commute I suggest putting in your order online, prior to pickup early mornings can be quite the mad house. If you do not have the means to make an online order they also take orders over the phone. They also offer delivery as well. Orders are completed fairly quick, I ordered my brunch via Door Dash 3 make your own breakfast sandwiches and it was ready within 5-8 minutes for pickup. I was initially hesitant about ordering a croissant breakfast sandwich because at almost every other place a croissant breakfast sandwich can be very messy. As seen in my image the sandwich is clean and neat, some might think why isn't the cheese stringy? The cheese is not stringy because I chose to eat it cold, it could use a little dash of salt and pepper but otherwise good. The other make your own sandwiches I order for my husband and daughter were identical. My daughter orders from here quite frequently and had no complaints. However, my husband who normally loves the bagels here, said that his sandwich was just fine his exact words were "it's okay it's not oh my God mind blowing or anything" but I'm not sure if he just didn't enjoy the sandwich because it was what my daughter picked. He does have a saltier palette so this could also be contributing to his critique. read more

I used to like this place. But, for some reason, the staff has become really rude. They were very obnoxious and condescending to my wife. Plus, they double charged her for the dozen bagels she ordered. My wife had to call them out on it. Never going to this place ever again! read more

Food quality is fine but the service has really gone down hill. People at the service counter appear timid to ask the owner/manager any questions. The menu does not reflect current prices (despite being a TV screen and easy to change). They refuse to slice bagels. Overall fine in a pinch but better options around. read more

I came to this bagel store few times now, employees are very friendly and they do offer many types bagel selections! Plenty of seats, if you come after 3pm a dozen(no less than dozen) of bagels will be 50% off!!! Can't beat that lolz Check in with Yelp you get a FREE 14oz coffee!!! LMK how you like it. Enjoy~ read more

Everything bagel toasted with vegetable cream cheese we amazing!!! Nice hefty serving of cream cheese and toasted perfectly!

I've been a loyal customer for many years, just recently I called to place an order however nobody answered. I waited 10 min. then repeated my call, same result no answer. I decided to drive there, upon entering the store, I jokingly said "Does anybody pick up the phone". I was attacked with verbal comments which just left me speechless.The manager Paco told me no service and proceeded to throw me out of the store. Never in my life have I been so humiliated. That being said, it's been 3 months since that episode and I now travel additional mile to Bagel Boy. Steve S. read more

They charge almost $7 for a bacon egg and cheese and it comes out looking like the picture. As if they used half a slice of cheese for entire bagel. Plus service is super slow. Might as well have went out to eat at a diner for the price and wait. read more

Was craving pork roll so we googled best pork roll and this place showed up. I got a basic pork roll, egg and cheese on an everything bagel. They forgot to put my SPK on it and had barely anything on it. My bf got the lone star burrito and he said it was the blandest thing he has ever had. The home fries were so bland and tasted old. We will not be going back! read more

If you want fresh food stop in this place. I've tried so many places around this area and in my opinion nobody's beating this location. I'm a nurse and I'm working 10 hours today so I stopped in for a breakfast sandwich and decided to grab something for later. I ordered a turkey and provolone on a Kaiser, it came with a side and pickle read more

My boyfriend orders from here once or twice a week. For the past three months, they have consistently gotten the order wrong almost every time. Today, he opened his bagel up to what looks like black hairs. He immediately took it back for a new sandwich and was told by an employee that it is not hair, it is from their BROOM. I'm not sure what's worse, a bunch a black hairs or BROOM BRISTLES in a sandwich. Clearly you have an infection control issue and are not changing your gloves. To top it off, they made him a new sandwich and got the order wrong. This will be our last time going here. I'd advise customers to find another bagel store for a correct order and for your health. read more

Great food at reasonable prices. Paco who is behind the counter is excellent. He handles everything from cooking to answering phones and serving you at your table. He is always pleasant and accommodating. The store is always clean and neat and to mention the bagels are a nice size and always fresh. Try it you will love it. Bob G read more

Owner didn't follow up in regard to afternoon manager, Paco, telling me at 2:10 pm the other day, that the dozen bagel special was only after 3 pm. He knowingly lied (one can only imagine it was a lame power play) and effectively made me leave without the dozen bagels I came for, as such. Mo, the owner, even as told about this disgusting, rude and completely uncalled for disservice, never followed up with me about he would handle this disrespectful, crappy service. Mo said his manager Paco could be "moody" and it was hard finding "good help." I texted Mo back earlier and asked for some resolution. I could easily shop elsewhere, and likely will, but I'd like some resolution and feedback about this ridiculous service and business practice. Character, decency and respect in business, and life, still matter. I'll post again in a coupla days to update. Overall, I'd avoid doing any serious business or food service with this establishment, based on the horrible service and treatment I've witnessed. Just a heads up read more

Long wait times and horrible customer service I prefer going to bagel boy much better experience

Went there to order my bagels and order a egg on a roll with cheese bacon. Was tolled that it would take approx 20-25 min for the eggs. There was a young kid taking the orders,. I also ordered a bagel plain toasted, and a every whole wheat everything bagel toasted and cream cheese. When I got home he gave me 2 sesame bagels, no whole wheat bagel.I had to go back, which of coarse they were out of. First they should put somebody who can take an order, not a kid. read more

Gives Jersey bagels a bad name. Incompetent and dirty. Used to order frequently but gone completely downhill. Had an order that had a wad of hair that looks like it came from someone's pubes on my bagel and an order that said no cheese but they slapped on cheese anyway. Gave them another chance but they messed up again when an order said no cheese and they again slapped on cheese anyway. read more

Once again they screw up a simple order. I purchase a considerable amount of bagels for my customers. And today I decided to give them a try and they botch my order. I can't rely on total incompetence and lack of communication. You also have a guy there that does not know the difference between a plain bagel and a hard roll in a previous visit. SMH! read more

Quick and fast breakfast place that is very warm and inviting. Check in with YELP and you get a free 12 ounce coffee. The service here was very fast and friendly also. I went with a free coffee and a breakfast platter. I had three eggs over medium, home fries and wheat toast. All of which did not disappoint. I do however have to take one star off because the workers should be more attentive to cleaning up the tables as soon as a customer leaves for the next customer. read more

Go to for breakfast sandwiches! Daughter always asks for an everything bagel with bacon, egg, and cheese. Bagels are baked fresh and have a nice chew to them. We always order extra to have at home too. read more

Opening hours are incorrect. They never open at 5:30a as listed. I've gone multiple times at opening but always turned away to wait until 6a in the parking lot. Even then they are slow and rude to serve. These bagels aren't worth waiting when I have an early day. Luckily I discovered Bagel Time Deli instead of waiting for them to open. Bagel Time actually opens during their opening time at 5:30a and was much friendlier to serve me than Bagel Talk. read more

I really wish I could be happy with this place. The bagels are fresh and the food is good but they constantly mess up our order. I'm not ordering anything hard or convoluted either. Just got my sausage egg and cheese with ketchup and there was no eggs or ketchup. I'm not sure who orders just sausage and cheese, or why the grill guy can't get the order right but this isn't the first time this has happened. read more

$10 Minimum credit card purchase is outrageous. Sorry I couldn't try your food. Adjust the policy. No business does more than $5 or they charge a small fee. Who carries cash these days? Stupid. read more

I'd maybe go 3.5. BEC had great flavor and crispy, thick bacon, but the bagel itself was missing that outer crunch and was too light on the everything seasoning. We got my 2 year old a plain bagel that was dyed green for St. Patricks day. Loved the airiness in the cream cheese, and she destroyed the bagel, so high marks from her I'm sure. The cinnamon raison bagel was really nice, and with the walnut raisin cream cheese it was like eating french toast. Loved it. Overall, not bad if you are in the area but not really worth going out of your way to get here. read more

I do not know how this place stays in business. They screw up simple orders. I call my order in ahead of time and am told it will be ready in 15 minutes and when I get there the order has not even been started yet. I'm also a part time delivery driver and there is a specific area for the delivery pick up's. It's always around a 10 minute wait minimum by the time you can get the attention of the staff. They also keep all the orders behind the counter. They need to take notice on how other Bagel shops in the area run a business. I would stay away read more

Solid crew here at Bagel Talk. I like how they put safeguards in place to help prevent the spread of covid-19 too. I place my order when I'm about 10 minutes away on Rt. 18 headed to work. Stop in grab my order and keep it moving. BTW - The cinnamon hazelnut coffee read more

Oh what to say. Well the delivery was prompt. We order a half a dozen of specific bagels. We did get the half dozen but not what we ask for. The onion rings and French fries that we got were supper soggy. Luckily we have an air fryer so we were able to fix them.The sandwiches that we ordered ware very good on the other hand and the bacon that I got on the side was nice and crispy. read more
