Always a line here despite so many bagel options in the neighborhood, so that really tells you something. My review is based on bagel experiences. They have a good selection of and a wide variety of spreads. Prices are reasonable , and most importantly , the bagels are always fresh. read more

WHY WE WENT HERE: - breakfast - conveniently located down the street from my friend's apt THE LOOK (FROM THE OUTSIDE): - located on the corner of 4th St and 5th Ave THE LOOK (FROM THE INSIDE): - deli-like feel with the different homemade cream cheeses and other goodies in the display windows as well as the handwritten black chalkboard signs/menus overhead on all the interior walls THE MENU: - soup - grill - deli - classic salads - specialty sandwiches - Bagel World bagels - spreads - coffee - egg sandwiches - omelets - hot off the grill - Brooklyn's best Acme smoked fish - sandwiches - muffin shop WHAT WE ORDERED: - sesame bagel with garlic cream cheese - Garfield omelet with home fries (if I recall correctly; if this wasn't the name of it, it was the one with the spinach and goat cheese in it) THE TASTE: - bagel was lightly toasted, cut in half and LOADED with garlic cream cheese = BEST BAGEL I'VE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE - the omelet and home fries weren't the best I've ever had, but it was still filling CUSTOMER SERVICE: - the workers here were very patient, warm, and welcoming to a newbie like me read more

I've been coming here for years. Each and every Time I visit it's always the same. The staff is always courteous; the ambiance is always welcoming and the music always puts me in the right place while I wait for the deliciousness that comes out the oven. I'm not sure if the young gentleman is the owner or not but he's always super friendly and throws a little something extra in every now and then. Cheers mate. Keep doing what you do. read more

The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly Overall experience was spectacular. Great environment, quick service and great music playing in the background. The Good: - Bagels - Very good, firm yet soft. I got a sausage egg and cheese on everything. They don't skimp on meat or cheese. I could only eat half. - Service - The run a well oiled machine. You are in and out in 5-10 min. - Location - Across the street on Sunday's there is a farmers market and parking isn't too bad. The Bad: - No Bathroom - Definitely more of a take out place than a sit and eat type of place The Ugly: - Nothing Highly suggest this place to get rid of Sunday scaries or simply to cure a hangover from Saturday night. read more

Ordered the cinnamon raisin bagel with cream cheese. It was awesome. You could actually taste the cinnamon backed in. It was the best cinnamon raisin bagel That I have had in years. Plenty of cream cheese. Highly recommend! read more

I'm a sucker for bagel & lox and I just had to try it when I came around this spot in the neighborhood. I called and placed an order for pickup. I walked in less than 10 minutes later and BOOM! My order was already waiting for me at the counter! Easy in and out! I was pleased with the bagel. It was everything I ever wanted; perfectly toasted sesame seed bagel with proportional amounts of cream cheese and lox. They had cucumber slices and larger sized capers which was a plus! read more

Bagel World - The lox deluxe. Oh yeah ! - Bagels Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Far from the worst lox bagel I've had in this area recently. Their signature lox hits the spot, and is priced about right at $11. The assembly wasn't perfect though, or well centered, which led to it being a bit of a messy eating experience. Like, REALLY messy. That said, their southwest lox sandwich also sounds worth a try, as do some of their sweet bagels- I'm glad they have sweet bagels and cream cheese, as a few other spots in the neighborhood are notably missing them. Will be back to review further combinations... read more

Bagel world is pretty decent for this area in Brooklyn. I especially like when their bagels come out fresh in the late afternoon! Their crust is not as thick as I'd like it but their bread structure is good. They could also put a bit more cream cheese on my bagel, please! Maybe next time I will ask for more cream cheese. P.S. the staff is great here and always makes the bagels very quickly. read more

Great place for your breakfast all day cravings! Their rainbow bagel is the best! I ordered them during my son's 4th bday last year. Their pastries and cookie selections are awesome as well! The best part is that it's right across the playground! read more

Customer service and products both get 5 stars! I called last night with an unusual gift request... I asked for an entire sheet of their amazing Cookie Crisp crispie treats. I was able to pay over the phone and the order was ready and waiting this morning when my messenger arrived to pick it up. My colleague LOVED the treats, everyone is happy. Thank you! read more

Bagel World - Amazing Cookie Crisp cereal crispie treats!! - Bagels Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

A real solid bagel option in Park Slope. Takeaway bagels are reasonably priced at $1.25 and super fresh. The everything bagels I picked up were HUGE and very filling, perfect for after a night of drinking. Place can get kind of crazy at times, but worth the wait in my opinion. Never been disappointed here, so the constinecy is much appreciated read more

Found a long dark hair baked into one of the several bagels I purchased today. Aside from this glaring hygiene issue, the communication is also poor. I ordered 8 bagels, and the guy said he owed me one free - not sure why and he was too busy to ask. Instead of charging me for the 8 I ordered, he charged me for 9. I'm not sure if this is some kind of bizarrely covert way to upsell, but it definitely put me off. The line in there on a Saturday morning was insane and he was quickly off to the next customer, so it would've been way too much of a hassle to try and get my money back for the bagel I didn't order. To add insult to injury, only half of the bagels I got seemed fresh - the others were hard and went uneaten by my brunch guests. I used to come here because it's the closest place to my apartment, but will start making the slightly longer trek to Bagel Pub since the prices are the same and I've never found anyone's hair in my breakfast there. read more

Bagel World - The long hair baked into my hard bagel. - Bagels Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I ordered an egg white omelet with some vegetables on the saturday morning I visited Bagel World. It did take quite a while for the food to be made, but when it finally did come - I enjoyed it. My boyfriend also enjoyed his sandwich. The customer service was good, the prices are reasonable, they could be a little bit more attentive to the floor since the table we sat down to eat at was kind of dirty - but overall we had a good experience. Of course, parking is a pain anywhere in park slope (even on the weekends because the local market vendors set up shop pretty much right across the street from this store - at least in the warmer months). read more

Absolute chaos in the best way. Have no idea how they keep all of the orders straight 90% of the time. My order was wrong twice out of the maybe, fifteen times I've stopped in. Very, very friendly and a great neighborhood staple. Keep it up, Bagel World! read more

Everything bagel with lox scallion spread is superb!!! Super friendly and fast service. Highly recommend for an affordable and delicious breakfast/lunch option! read more

I have experienced consistent service and food quality throughout my experience coming to Bagel World. It is a quaint shop that feels very relaxing and homey. I live in the Bronx and the commute to get here is well worth it. There is a very large selection of bagels, cold cuts, cream cheeses, pastries and drinks. All day long, bagels are boiled and baked. The bagels are made then sold daily. You can find leftover bagels from the night before in a bucket in front of the refrigerated display. They are on sale for $2. I always love a place that saves food and doesn't waste! Ingredients in sandwiches are always fresh in texture, flavor, and appearance. Plus, when you order a sandwich you can get a free bag of potato chips or an apple. I love it! The men behind the counters are always very accommodating. They help you order if you don't know exactly what you want and they always repeat my order to make sure they heard correctly. They are attentive and simply enjoy doing their job. They give out good vibes and it makes having breakfast, lunch or dinner enjoyable. My favorite bagel is the French Toast bagel. It is fluffy, moist, and perfect with BUTTER and CINNAMON. Yum! I love having this bagel with my light and sweet coffee. Even when I bought these home, the next day they still tasted delicious. There is a large selection of drinks you can try out. Here, I've tried the Manhattan Special Espresso Coffee Soda and I fell in love with it! Overall, I enjoy the atmosphere, service, and food Bagel World has to offer. These three things are the simplest but most important to the success of a business. read more

Bagel World - #9 on their Signature Sandwiches menu, complimentary chips, espresso coffee soda! - Bagels Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

My go to spot before I get the mane tamed. Fresh bagels... a plethora of different cream cheese spread. My only gripe is that I can not make my own coffee. I'm a super light 4 splenda lady and it never comes out right when done by someone else. So I always have to go back and say a little more cream please. read more

Great food, great customer service! Good prices. Everything is fresh and the staff is very helpful to first timers.

This place is terrific: bagel, smoked salmon, cream cheese .... Outstanding in both quality and quantity. Friendly place.

Holy simoleons these guys are amazing. Massive selection of food. Bagels rock obviously but the paninis, salads, smoothies, etc are all great. Love the flavored cream cheese. Coffee is legit. But most important is the service. They are happy, friendly, will crack a joke and smile. They are crazy accommodating of tweaks to the order despite a huge line. When we asked for an omelette without cheese they ran out to make sure the price dropped. When we asked for no home fries, they put a salad in without us asking. Come for the food, come time and again for amazing service. Thank you! read more

We were in town for a week, went there a couple of times. Best bagel in town, way better then other places we had

I'm a Brooklyn boy at heart even though I work in Manhattan and live in New Jersey. Park Slope is the area I spent many of my formative years so I've always been a fan of the food in the neighborhood. However, as the years (and gentrification) have passed, I wondered if old haunts such as Bagel World still had that more "mom and pop" style feel with good food that I remembered from my youth. Recently on a trip visiting my buddy Albert W. in Brooklyn, I stopped by Bagel World to pick up something for my girlfriend and I to munch on. As I waited on a (very) long line, I got to look at their deli counter and see an amazing array of cured meats and salads. Big plus? They carry Boar's Head brand meats, which I consider some of the best out there (including Boar's Head Canadian Bacon!). Then as we moved down I began to see their vast array of cream cheeses. My god, it was insane. Bacon/scallion, Pistachio, Chocolate Chip, Vegetable, Walnut/Raisin...it looked more like flavors of ice cream than cream cheese! When we got down the line more, I saw something I had never imagined or seen before: French Toast Bagels. YES, you read that right. And they were still WARM. I ordered that with the chocolate chip cream cheese for my girlfriend and got a cinnamon raisin bagel with pistachio cream cheese. So, if there were some vision of Bagel Heaven, these two bagels would embody that vision. The French Toast bagel tastes exactly as advertised. Big, soft on the inside, a bit harder on the outside with a wonderful chew...the chocolate cream cheese was absolutely insane. The cinnamon raisin bagel was good by itself, but with the super savory pistachio cream cheese it was a perfect combination of savory and sweet! The service was great. These guys had to deal with a lot of orders in rapid succession and they handled it like pros. Nothing felt "fake" or "forced" here, the guys were naturally friendly and efficient, an awesome deli combination. Bagel World rocks, and I can't wait to try more of their delicious bagel and cream cheese flavors! read more

OMG huge fan. I couldn't decide between shmears so i got 2. Toasted Everything bagel with lox and chive shmears.. And good coffee. And my doggy got some doggy biscuits at the doggy window. Winner hands down. I will come back the next time i'm visiting my friend in Brooklyn read more

I come here everyday, for over 2years.. what more can i say? Everything bagel is amazing! read more

Bagel World - Rainbow bagel - Bagels Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

My go-to breakfast spot in the neighborhood! The staff is friendly and attentive, and Scott the owner is THE MAN!!! Keep up the great work guys!!! read more

The best BLT and Grilled Cheese sandwich I ever have. It sounds simple to make, but everyone try to overwhelm them with lettuce or tomatoes, or they burn bacon. Plus bread doesn't taste like burned oil. Just ideal. Right amount of ingredients and perfect taste. Will be back definitely. Also nice and friendly staff. read more

I'll admit, I wasn't a fan the first time I ate here, but now I know the error of my ways (basically, if you're getting the rainbow bagel, do it for the 'gram or just get the plain). I've had a number of their bagels - toasted! - and spreads (thumbs up on the lox spread) and they're all consistently on point. The service is quick and super friendly whether you're just getting a cup of coffee or getting a dozen bagels and spreads. Happy to have this in the neighborhood! read more

It's an ok bagel place. Good if you're in a pinch or if you're far from bagel pub or shelskys. But if you're looking for a bagel you'd be settling here. read more

Everything that I had there was amazing... from the lox sandwich to regular bagels and their flavored cream cheese! Food is super fresh! Delicious;-) read more

Love this place. They have an extensive menu of sandwiches, bagels, omelettes, salads, and more. Reasonable prices for super tasty bagels. The people working were incredibly friendly and accommodating. There were plenty of seats available when I went around 9am. read more

The bagels advertised were not available. Staff weren't very friendly. Table outside was wobbly. Food was a solid 6/10. Overpriced for quality & experience. read more

Great bagels and bagel sandwiches. We are partial to The Godfather sandwich at lunchtime, and the sausage egg and cheddar bagels at breakfast. The rest of the baked goods leave a bit to be desired--the donuts are often very heavy and doughy, and the muffins are not always very flavorful. read more

We spent 15 dollars in here and they still yelled at me for going to another store and buying pizza and sitting down with my friends. She took away my friends chair because I bought the pizza. She told us three times that we should not buy pizza and come here and then told me to stand up. We left in protest. Also, my friends order there many times and the people who work there always mix up there food. Once I had a friend who got something that they were allergic to! I don't think Bagel World is a good place to eat at or order from! read more

I just checked out another wildly popular bagel spot in the neighborhood and just wanted to say Bagel World is still my jam. Their bagel sandwiches are great and they always get my order right. Tables are always clean though I usually grab and go. I'm oftentimes lucky and get a piping hot fresh bagel. This isn't the closest bagel but this is DEFINITELY my bagel. read more

Gets pretty crazy on a Sunday afternoon. The guy behind the counter helping me had trouble understanding English and was in a bit of a rush so he messed up both of my orders. The owner at the cashier is extremely friendly and helpful though, so he helped fix everything. Lox and bagel is delicious and at a reasonable price of $8.99. Each order also comes with a bag of chips or a piece of fruit. read more

We've been coming here since we moved to the neighborhood eight years ago. When moving apartments last summer, we seriously asked "Wait, how far is this apartment from Bagel World?"

Smart marketing guys-hook the dogs in free treats and their people will come. Bagels are light and fluffy on the inside and crispy on the outside. Really consistent, love this place. If I can't fit out the door I'm blaming this place. #Carbs4Eva read more

Solid New York bagels. Open early for us dog walkers. Nicest guy in the world owns this place. Crew always treats you right.
