Been visiting weekly (weekends) for about a year. Consistently good bagels. I actually drive from Shrewsbury, passing multiple other bagel places to get here. Good variety of spreads (more than the normal 3-4 most places have). Very tasty, bagels go down easy, typically have blueberry, sunflower, grain or plain. Coffee is decent. Still haven't had a sandwich yet but that's because of the time of morning I visit. Warning - small place so line can go to the door and out the door at peak times. read more

Stopped here after a friend told me how amazing it was and I've been going here ever since. Awesome family owned place with the best bagels in town for sure. I enjoy their coffee and all their bagels but my favorite would have to be the Jalapeño Cheddar bagel. Put your bacon, egg, & cheese on that and you will not be disappointed. It's truly the best I can eat it every day and never get tired of it. They make all types of homemade treats and seasonal goodies so there's always new little things to try and there's smoothies and lunch options as well. All in all, a great little spot in Worcester. Good service, family owned, and great food just deserved a Yelp review appreciating them for always starting my day off right. Thanks guys ! read more

This place is cool; the college kids kind of take a lot of space and hold up the line, but not Bagel times fault!! the bagels are super fresh and delicious; they didnt get 5 stars because the coffee is a bit over-priced; I got a large and i was done with it before my bagel was even ready; so their either going too slow or need to give more coffee! cool spot, maybe ill comeback when it is not as busy. Not sure if i will get a coffee tho. read more

Bagels are great but staff are unfriendly and not accommodating. I have gone in for bagels for brunches and they say they donut like to sell more than half a dozen because they don't have many bagels. They are a BAGEL SHOP!! Bagels are not as good elsewhere but tired of dealing with them. read more

Absolutely love this place! Delicious bagels and friendly staff. I'm completely obsessed with the olive cream cheese and their bacon and avocado wraps! You can definitely tell that the bagels and freshly made! Obsessed! ;) read more

the bagels on the small sideband were ok..just average..nothing to wow over..i tried the blueberry with strawberry cream cheese and the asiago with butter..meh...nothing to rave about.. read more

I've been visiting Bagel Time for several years now and I've never had a bad bagel or sandwich from this place. I highly recommend the scallion bacon cream cheese. This place raises the bar on bagels. I can't enjoy Dunkin Donuts' bagels anymore because they aren't anywhere close to the deliciousness of a Bagel Time bagel. The only downside is that the bagels are small and I often find myself wanting another one. This place is a great take-out place and another hidden gem of the area. read more

The girls working the counter are very rude. It makes for an unpleasant experience. This was the last time they will get my business.

best bagels in town, a treat to make it there, very fresh ingredients, especially like the variety of cream cheese spreads. This place has turned ppl who don't care for bagels, or never had them, into lovers! read more

Great bagels, sandwiches, etc. Big con that pervents me from being a more regular customer is that they are almost NEVER open when they say they are. I wish they would post the hours and stick to them, so I don't get cravings and show up to a darkened shop in the middle of what has been posted as their daily hours. It has happened more times than it hasn't. read more

5-STAR BAGEL! As someone who grew up in a heavily Jewish neighborhood in Chicago and who has had the best bagels in the go-to places in Chi and New York City, this place makes bagels that are, AT LEAST, equal to the best of I've ever had. They also have a great deal on their whitefish salad, true Jewish-deli style, by the pound. Also, $5 a dozen for fresh-baked bagels? Are you kidding me? As my bubbie and zadie, rest their souls, used to say: Such a bargain! Oy veh! read more

Great bagels!! BUT, and this is a big but, they will not allow you to buy any flavor you want because they like to leave some for potential future customers! WTF kind of business doesn't sell to a present paying customer banking on potential customers coming in and ordering that flavor bagel?? Absolutely ridiculous business sense! Annoying and will affect future purchases by me! read more

I have not had a bagel from them in over a year. Bought one today and they have shrink! Good bagel but 30% smaller. Do businesses really think the public will not notice? How much have they incressed their bottom line? read more

Wow, what happened? This used to be the best bagel shop in central ma. I hadn't been for some time and was surprised to find the bagels are about 1/3 smaller and not nearly the quality that they were just a year or so ago. I bought a marble, sourdough, russian rye, indian harvest and a few others that were equally small, stale, hard and forgettable. I started going to this place about 20 years ago and the quality had been consistently good and the staff was friendly. Now they are all surly and ooze contempt for their customers. Very sad. read more

I had gone to Bagel time about a year ago and swore I would not come back because service was horrible. Well I was in a jam and stopped in between meetings. And again the staff at the counter were so rude. I will never go back, it's too bad because they seem to have good food, but good service is very important to me. read more

The bagels here are amazing and every worker is completely kind. I come here at least 1-3 times a week and never come out unsatisfied. Hands down, the best crispy & soft bagels I've ever had in my life and the cream cheese is freshly homemade. Not only are their bagels amazing, but so are their smoothies and fresh muffins! A total recommend. read more

I've been going to Bagel Time since I was a kid. Their bagels have remained throughout the years just as delicious, if not more so. I love the atmosphere in the restaurant. It's small and comfortable and the staff is always very friendly and accommodating. This is the best bagel place I have ever been to. It puts places like Panera and Dunkin to shame. Their cream cheese is the best, it's so light and tasty. Add that with one of their mouthwatering hot and fresh bagels and BAM you've got a little slice of heaven. Doesn't get much better than this. read more

I love Bagel Time! Great quality, excellent prices and the staff is always friendly. You know a place is good when the owners recognize you and acknowledge your occasional business! read more

$10.00 minimum charge for credit/debit??? Managment needs to wake up and realize it's 2016-no one carries cash anymore. Worcester is gross

To the ny snob below I beg to differ. These are very good by any standard. In fact whole grain and pumpernickle are better than H&H (which I use to live near). BT is a world class bagel -- believe I know. Born raised schooled and worked in NYC 30+ years. read more

My favorite bagels in the city. It's worth the drive across the city for these bagels. Try the salsa cream cheese. I had a turkey club with avocado on a pumpernickel bagel and it was great. I also love the green iced tea and the bagel chips they sell. Very friendly staff and they always play Adele which I love too! read more

Enjoyed the bagel. Lox cream cheese was good however the Kids working there were rude, no manners. Would not go back.

Best. Bagels. Ever!!! I moved out of state for a few years and dreamed of their spinach and garlic bagels. Nothing else compares to those. The teenagers working the counter can be a bit angsty at times, but man...those bagels are worth it! read more

One of the only places in Worcester to get nova lox. Awesome bagels, great cream cheese spreads, and great sandwiches. There is usually enough parking in the lot. 10 minimum for credit cards. Definitely one of my favorite places to get breakfast! read more

What a treat! Fresh warm bagels with a smear of fresh veggie cream cheese in Worcester. Sweet and warm service. Clean and neat and the added bonus of lively college students bounding in from nearby colleges. I cheated though and had a rugelach. Probably shouldn't write a review because my wife may see it. read more

This place is a local gem. Family-run and unpretentious, the bagels here are fabulous and the cream cheeses are creative and flavorful. My go-to is lox cream cheese on a toasted asiago bagel, which is often still warm from the oven when I mosey in around 11 on weekends. They don't always have what you want in stock, so definitely spend your time in line picking out a second best choice. Everything I've had is delicious, so you can't really go wrong. I can't speak to anything else they serve because I love bagels too much to stray. The outdated cash register sometimes takes a little while but the ever-present line moves quickly and there is usually a table available within a few minutes of when I want it. Their smoothies are vibrant and full of fresh produce, and unfortunately take quite a while to make, often arriving after I've finished my bagel- but I still give Bagel Time five stars because their bagels are so crazy good, and are the only ones like this that I can find in the area. read more

I have been going to BT since it first opened in June of 92!!! The best granola in the entire world!!! The best staff they are fantastic! Try a french toast bagel!!!!The sesame Bagel wow!!!!!Great wraps!!! Egg sandwiches !!!!!!You want a Bagel just go to Park Ave BT!! read more

I was excited to see an actual bagel place, but this was terribly disappointing. I've gone twice and both times the people serving me were incredibly rude and were shouting things back and forth to one another, which kept resulting in mix ups with orders. The first time I got a bagel and a chai tea. The bagel was okay, nothing special but satisfied my craving. The chai tea was completely undrinkable. It tasted like cheap powdered hot cocoa with some spice and didn't even seem to be fully dissolved. And for the price tag on it, I was expecting an actual brewed tea. The second time I went in was for an egg sandwich. I have never, ever been a bagel store where I watch them take pre-cooked packaged meat, slap a slice of American cheese on it, and add those little fake egg patties and cook it in a regular microwave. If I had wanted a fast food version, I would have crossed the street and gone to Dunkin Donuts, which honestly would have tasted 10x better. It was a total rip off and pretty much inedible. I definitely won't be returning. read more
