    The bagels, service, and atmosphere were superb! The variety of bagels is impressive! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

    Traveled all the way from Miami for the best bagels in ny. I wish I bought a dozen back but didn't have room in my suitcase . The egg bagel with lox and all the fixings was perfect. Crispy on the outside soft and chewy on the inside. Perfect. A must. Quick service. No frills ambiance. You feel transported to simpler times here. Loved every second of it.

    This big boy weighs 7.55oz!! That's 2.5oz larger than its competitors! Each bagel is $1.45. I came in at 7am and there were no lines. The bagel itself was a bit of a letdown. The first untoasted bite proved that the bagel was dense, but it doesn't have an airy bite. The bagel is generously topped with seasoning but not quite salty enough. Due to its hefty size, the inside was really dry. Not the worst bagel and not the best bagel I've had. Definitely worth the price considering its size.

    Good coffee. I stop here to pick up breakfast. I was staying in the neighborhood for a few days and chose this spot. Breakfast was a typical fast moving New York classic. Live, love and laugh -Sha

    Beautiful and tasty egg everything bagel with lox spread!

    I've actually never dined in here (have always taken orders to go), nor have I ordered the coffee, pastries, or any extras. This review is specifically for the bagels and spreads. This place is really AWESOME! With the many bagel places here in Astoria, it's very easy to feel overwhelmed with all of the available choices. Well, look no further! Bagels and Brew has what I think are the perfect bagels with cream cheese spreads that actually taste like cream cheese. I know that probably sounds weird, but the cream cheese tastes very fresh when compared to other places in the neighborhood, right? Or am I the only one who feels that way? It's so hard to explain. Anyway, along with the awesome bagels and spreads, the service is also quite good. Quick, efficient. I'm almost never in there for longer than just a few minutes. The guy who works the register is very friendly and pleasant. Bagels and Brew is actually a little bit of a trek from my apartment over here on 30th Ave, but that's more than fine with me. I don't mind walking about 20 minutes to get an amazing bagel. That's how good these are!

    This is my go-to seamless delivery option for my morning breakfast. Usually I go to another spot for takeout if I'm out and about, but when I want to order breakfast in bed or it's too cold to go out - I go straight here without even questioning other options. They have a pretty large selection of items - I usually go with a Bacon Egg and Cheese on a bagel. The bagels overall are maybe a 3.5 compared to other bagels, but I'm more of a breakfast sandwich person anyways. If I want just a bagel with spread I'd go to my takeout spot. The delivery is also on point and in the year and a half I've been ordering from this place, it's never been more than 40 mins and no issues. A great place to add to your seamless queue.

    I literally order from this place almost every single Saturday and Sunday. My day doesn't start till I've had a breakfast from B&B! Their sandwiches, whether you're feeling an egg or cc bagel, are always full and filling. They are also extremely neat and I love a neat sandwich. Their delivery is extremely quick and efficient. I may or may not live one block away but doesn't matter. They are great!!!

    Burnt inside and out. It went straight in the trash. Shame on you.

Everything was on point, but the wings, the Mac and cheese and that burger are must-orders every time. The drinks were just as good. We had a frozen Arnold Palmer, a coconut mojito and the boozy blueberry. The overall vibe is calm and chill, perfect for hanging out without feeling rushed. One of my go-to spots for a reason.

The place is LOUD albeit with good taste of retro, 90's music and not the modern trash that floods the radio waves so I can rock with that. Place is sized pretty well with an outside seating area and plenty of tables inside the albeit dimly lit bar/restaurant. Coming into the place I was greeted by a blonde woman who seemed to be a supervisor of the area. She directed me to a comfortable seating area and a server took my order afterwards. The place was relatively busy so the wait for my food was kind of in the long range, about maybe 15 minutes. I ordered Chicken & Waffles with Iced Tea and the food was definitely worth the wait. That chicken was so good, a bit on the crisp side but it's solid in taste. The Waffle had such an awesome texture with the right measure of powdered sugar, decorated with Blueberries and Strawberries, the entrée was plated very well. The Iced Tea, I didn't know it was unsweetened so that threw me off but some sugar kinda fixed that. Service was also 'A' Tier. The place was busy so it was a tad on the slow side but they were very attentive. About 3 different servers tended to me whether it was about my order, how I liked it and paying for the bill when I was finished. That's dedication and I always give props to that. I enjoyed my visit here.

When we…read morearrived, the hostess guided us to one of their private rooms downstairs, which was spacious enough to comfortably fit around 20-25 people--perfect for a group celebration. We had our own dedicated server, which made everything feel really seamless. They kept our drinks flowing the entire time, and it was a huge plus not having to flag anyone down. For food, I ordered the chicken sandwich and it was delicious. The coleslaw on it added great flavor (honestly, I just wish there was a bit more of it). It came with fries that were perfectly crispy--exactly how fries should be. Overall, I had a really enjoyable time.

    We stopped here for breakfast while staying in Long Island City and I had a rather lackluster…read moreexperience. It's a small cafe with limited seating. They have a giant menu posted on the wall to peruse. When we approached the counter to order, the person manning the register basically ignored us. When she finally acknowledged us to place our order, the interaction was taciturn and curt - no niceties. I ordered the single order pan-fried pancake ($8, but closer to $11 after tax). The menu states a choice between beef, pork, and chicken, but we were only given the choice between beef and chicken. The cashier also gave us a choice between spicy potato or pork floss (I opted for the pork floss), which was not denoted in the menu description. The menu does say it comes with veg, but what they really mean is lettuce/salad. The menu picture online is also misleading because it says it comes with an egg, and displays both a soft-boiled egg and beautiful runny egg cascading over the pancake. Instead, the only egg that was served was one overcooked fried egg (not runny at all!), and it was cold (but more on that later). The quoted wait time for the food was 20 minutes. There's a little station near the counter to grab napkins, silverware, and water. Around 9:30am on a Friday, several tables were filled, but no one had any food (the cafe opened at 9am, so I suppose the kitchen was still ramping up). My friends and I ordered variations of the same dish (the pan-fried pancake), but the dishes were served in reverse order - the person who ordered last got their dish first and vice versa. When one order is more complex than another, it's understandable when the easier/quicker one is served first. Since we all ordered nearly the same dish, this was not the case. The way things were being expedited was not efficient. When they finally called my name, I was excited to dig in, but the dish was cold! The beef was cold, the pancake was cold, the egg was cold and overcooked... I had half a mind to send it back. I'm guessing my order was ready earlier, but it must've sat there because someone forgot about it. Now technically, there are cold elements in the dish, if you count the lettuce and dressing, but there's no reason why the pancake, egg, and beef were all cold... they weren't warm, they didn't retain any heat, they were cold. They were also skimpy on the beef. The only redeeming qualities of the dish were that, fortunately, the pancake was still crispy, albeit cold and greasy, and the pork floss is a delicacy that gave the pancake a little extra oomph of flavor and texture. My friend ordered the Wake Up Combo ($14), which is the pan-fried pancake served with a soy milk and tea egg. Similar to my own egg experience, the tea egg was disappointingly overcooked (think hard-boiled) and not jammy like the picture at all. We all have bad days, so maybe Morning Brunch & Cafe was having one... but this is a skip for me.

    Convenient location right near the Queens station in Long Island City (LIC). Taiwanese influenced…read morebreakfast, so I was pretty excited. The prices were bad here but the service and the food weren't great. When we arrived, we were scoping out the menu, they had it posted in a lot of places but it was kind of confusing. I did like how you could scan a QR code and when you clicked on an item, it was more descriptive of the add-on options or potential meat options. There are approximately 10-13 seats, so not great for a massive party, but good for a small outing or for take out. I saw a decent amount of delivery people come in to do pick ups. My friends and I were ordering and were curtly treated by one of the employees. I ordered the fried vegetable pancake with them since you couldn't order the QR code on the tables. She told me the options of only beef and chicken. I thought pork would've been an option and then she mumbled about the options for the additional topping. I couldn't understand her when she said pork floss, so I ordered spicy potatoes. The food also came out kind of sad and was slow to come out. The order was all wrong as I ordered last and then was delivered my dish first. It was kind of sad because I didn't even realize you should be able to pick up the pancake. It was hard to eat because it kept crumbling apart due to the pan fried falky pancake was a thin layer what just felt like crust. I was imagining more like a scallion pancake with vegetables infused or stuffed in. It also came out cold, and could have used a bit more flavor like a sauce or soy sauce. The spicy potatoe tasted a little undercooked as well. My friend ordered hers with pork floss instead and that tasted a little better. The dish also came with a supposed to be overeasy egg that is supposed to be runny, but was a bit overcooked.
