Located on Eastdale Avenue, you will find this cute little bagel shop. As we entered on a late…read moreSaturday morning there were a few people waiting around for orders. My aunt and I ordered a few bagels. I added two cream cheeses and a crumb cake. I opted for a garlic bagel, onion bagel, everything bagel, French toast bagel, poppy bagel and a blueberry bagel. They all looked so good. I also added a small vegetable cream cheese and a pumpkin cream cheese. This evening I had the everything bagel with the vegetable cream cheese. The bagel was really good and the cream cheese had great flavoring that was not too overpowering for me. I tasted the pumpkin cream cheese and that was wonderful! The staff were great. The female employee who helped me was so patient and took the time to explain items to me. I really appreciate that since I was not from the area. The sandwiches they make looked really Good. They were sandwiched with all the ingredients. This is really a pretty good bagel shop.

One of the young girls working there was too busy eating French fries to attend to the place. I get being hungry while working but at least hide it. It looked so unprofessional especially while there was so much that needed to be attended to. Also the appearance from the outside makes the place look sketchy and like it's possibly closed so it could use some updating, some eye catching signage or liveliness in general. The menu, coffee selection, whoever is cooking, phenomenal job. I would go back.

Everyone behind the counter greets you with genuine warmth during the morning rush. The pastries are always fresh and worth the wait, but the real star of the show? Their wonderfully large cup of coffee. It's the kind that wakes you up, comforts you, and pairs perfectly with anything you grab from the bakery case. Whether you're stopping by before work or treating yourself on a slow weekend morning, Kelly's delivers every time. Great service, great coffee, and a neighborhood feel that makes you want to return again and again.

Last Wed April 22, 2026, I was introduced to Kelly's through the CIA. I visited with friends…read morebetween events at FDR and enjoyed sandwiches, pastries, and bread to take home. It was a memorable experience, with excellent staff and service. However, my visit today was very disappointing. I stopped in to pick up sunflower bread, as previously recommended. At the counter, a staff member told me only garlic-onion bread was available today and that sunflower bread would be available tomorrow. I agreed to take the garlic-onion loaf and asked if it could be sliced, also mentioning that I planned to return the next day for sunflower bread. As I was completing the purchase, another staff member passing by stated that the bread was in fact sunflower. The first employee then changed course and asked how many I wanted. I requested one loaf and again asked if it could be sliced. He responded that they do not slice bread. I explained that during my visit last Wed., the breads have been sliced for us, and I also shared that I am a senior with a disability, specifically severe arthritis in both hands, which makes slicing difficult. A second staff member then interjected, stating that the bread should not have been sliced for me previously and that only sourdough is sliced, and only after 10 a.m. This interaction left me feeling uncomfortable and discouraged. The contrast between the welcoming, accommodating staff I encountered last Wednesday and today's experience was striking. Unfortunately, this visit significantly impacted my impression of Kelly's.

We were fortunate and found parking right in front. It wasn't a busy morning despite being a Saturday and the interior was simple yet inviting and clean. There was also very limited seating inside so it's best to take it to go. The staff were very pleasant. The bacon, egg and cheese stuffed bagel was pretty good! It's such a fun idea and is less messy than a typical BEC. The only real critique is that the bagel was a little doughy toward the end, but otherwise, very delicious!

We ordered the pastrami Reuben bagel and the sausage egg and cheese bagel. Both were delicious and I am looking forward to trying more. The bagels seemed freshly made and the fillings were delicious. Only problem is we wanted them cut in half so we could each have both bagels. They somehow ran out of forks and knives so the workers took them to the kitchen and cut them for us. It's a very small yet clean place and the employees were very polite and helpful.

I mentioned this cute little town because it's just one of the little niches along the Hudson river that makes a perfect little day trip. FIRST IMPRESSIONS: really quaint storefront, and first impression.Enter through the cafe door which also functions as a retail shop for handmade objects like soaps, etc. The gifts have an upscale vibe-worth a trip back. We had about 15 minutes to kill before attending a Yelp event across The Street so we opted to take the chill off by purchasing a hot beverage at Norma's. The staff is pretty laid-back, friendly, but laid-back. If you're in a hurry, I'm not sure if this would work. The hot and cold beverages are very straightforward and you can get some vegan options here. There were two behind the counter, but I felt they were a little engaged in their personal banter and we're not that attentive. Not a real sense of urgency or purpose. I'm sorry if that sounds harsh but once they did give us their full attention, we let them know that we were waiting for an event across the street and didn't have a lot of time. They asked us if we'd like to sit down with our beverage and we opted to do so since it was pretty cold outside. We ordered two hot chocolate And two homemade biscuits. They gave us a table number stanchion for the table and let us know they would be bringing it to us. We did not need to wait. We took the three steps down to the main dining area, where we were pleasantly surprised that they were having a live event - in this case it was a storytelling event. There was a table available for the two of us so we sat down and quickly realized that the table was so off-balance that it post a potential safety hazard. When I placed my hot chocolate down and rested my wrist, the entire table tilted forward toward me. This is an easy thing to fix, but my guess is that it's been this way for a really long time. That's unfortunate. All that aside, the room was really cozy and had a lot of character - lots of two top and four top tables to provide a very intimate setting with each one having a good view of the small stage Minutes went by and there was no biscuit delivered. More minutes went by and we began to wonder if they had forgotten. I guess is that they weren't making the biscuits from scratch so most likely they did forget. Since we had already paid for everything with a pretty generous tip, we waited a a few more minutes. Time ran out when we noticed that the event attendees were lining up across the street. That's something we could see from the really great big windows that faced Main Street. Reluctantly, my sister and I got up from the table and headed to the counter where we had made the order. We let them know that we needed to go and asked if the biscuits were ready. They seemed perplexed at first and then a lightbulb moment. Yes. I suspect they did forget the order. I wouldn't bother so much but two biscuits and two hot chocolates. It was about $20 plus tip so when they recognized that the biscuits were still missing, they asked if we would like to take them to go. The lack of awareness was disappointing because they were clearly not busy with anything else A minute or two later, they emerged from the kitchen with a small bag, presumably containing the two biscuits. Service was definitely lacking, particularly for what is a bit of a higher priced venue. Maybe we caught them on an off night but my sense is that laid back attitude is built in to the business model. Would I return to Norma's? I'm not sure. The hot chocolate was good, not from a mix, but would it bring me back? I'll let you know.

There were also a couple of EV car chargers in the lot. We walked into the shop and we were the next online. It is a small cozy shop with ample seating. There was a great choice of bagels and spreads as well as muffins and cake. We came at a great time as people started pouring in as soon as we sat down with our food. I went with the "Super Onion Egg Bagel" with some cream cheese while my wife went with "Everything Bagel" with vegetable cream cheese. Both of us truly enjoyed our selections. Being from Long Island and patronizing the same places for years, our expectation levels may be a little high. Overall, this shop did a great job especially with the wonderful staff here.
