Frequently passing Bagels & Co because parking is difficult to find. I just haphazardly found a parking spot directly across the street. There is plenty of seating for those that choose to dine inside. Forming a line from the door when you walk inside. There are many employees behind the counter working in unison, the line moved Swifty. The decor is a cross between a pizza shop and a coffee shop. I gathered that this is a Kosher Bagel place IYKYK! So, looking around I see all sorts of bagels and I found out that the bagels are all hand made/ rolled! They have salad, pancake for $3 a piece. And, pause... They have pizza! I purchased a plain bagel with cream cheese, a Poppy seed bagel with scallion cream cheese, and 2 pancakes for $3 a piece. Everything is to go, the meter is running with 20 minutes reserved. I got home ready to dig in, placed one $3 cake in the toaster oven, although they did warm it up. Added sausage no syrup yet. It's half cooked not edible, $6 in the trash. They were very heavy as well. I'm glad I bought extra food. The bagel was lightly toasted and they put a mound of cream cheese on them. Sloppy joe's held together better than this. The guy serving said that they are number 1, they can be that, for convenience sake. This trip was not impressive enough for a return visit. And they have a return policy, it's no refunds! Areas of improvement, pizza looking days old should not be out that early. It's not appealing. I'm just saying... Inspire more, Yelp more! read more

Absolutely loved this spot! Very busy spot with long lines depending on the day and time. I ordered a sesame bagel, lightly toasted, with butter, salt, black pepper, and an omelette. The bagel was huge, fresh, and had that perfect chewy texture. Omelette was good it was all veggie. They serve other items as well even pizza is on the menu but didn't try that. I also grabbed three sesame bagels with butter for my family, lightly toasted the same way. They were all consistent in size and quality, and everyone was happy with them. Prices were very fair, especially considering how large the bagels are. You can dine in or take out your choice but they have seating inside and outside. Overall, quick service, friendly staff, and really solid bagels. I'll definitely be back! read more

I discovered this gem when my other bagel spot near my doctor closed . It's on Union Turnpike and 188th St . Long lines out the door in the morning . Small seating area but this is the best kosher bagels I've tasted . They are huge and soft . My go to is plain or sesame bagel with loc , a schmear and tomato .I skip the capers . They have muffins and baked goods and salads as well . Cozy vibe on the corner of the block . They do observe the Sabbath so they are closed on Saturday . Street parking and the Q46 stops right there . read more

Not real NY bagel..and terrible coffee.. I had a bagel craving for lunch and it was time for my second coffee of the day and I am from the neighborhood but north of the area towards bayside hills.. so I know a good bagel from Queens and Manhattan... the "everything bagel" was like plain white bread with some seeds on it. It just did not seem like a real bagel. The coffee around 12 pm was gross. Maybe it was not fresh anymore but it was still tasting terrible esp when I am happy with that simple basic deli coffee or Wesley Farms or Folgers which are far from luxury but that is all I need.. this was terrible. The neighborhood has also changed with the Jewish population leaving and more Asians continuously coming in. Best public schools around but seems run down around that part. read more

This is a review in rush hour. Our time is limited and folks are simply trying to get to work and stay loyal to a business. I couldn't even get my full order out and they do not respect the order of the line. I sat there and witnessed friends, just shouting, their order, over-the-counter. I find this rude and unprofessional and this is not my first experience like this. I can deal with a mediocre,bagel, that's fine, however, I will not deal with the wasting of my time and or patronage. read more

There's usually a line whenever I come here. The wait is between 10-20 minutes from my experience. They have various bagels and cream cheese spreads. My go-to order is the toasted everything bagel with eggs. There's plenty of seating inside and also an outdoor dining area. Normally, I see that people just take their orders to-go. read more

Met up with 4 friends for the first time because Bagles & Co. has a beautiful outdoor seating area and we were a group of 5. There was a Long line which indicates the food is good-AND IT WAS! The people are hard working and nice. They are clearly handling a lot. I was surprised to read some of the negative reviews until I realized they were: 1) either from a bunch of self serving entitled people who felt the people behind the counter needed to work harder or faster --if you need faster service go to a cheap place where you place your own order and pay for it and there is no human interaction. 2) or a group of people from a culture that preaches an ideology where strangely enough their prophet says it is good to hate their neighbor, trash their neighbor's business without ever going there and also coments on the owner's choice of flags. IS THAT YOUR BUSINESS? etc.. instead of spending time being a loser and putting worthless comments why don't you spend time beautifying your own lives and businesses. What kind of sick culture endorses such behavior? Overall this is a clean wonderful place with good food and very fair prices. If you like to trash people because you feel people need to rush even more to serve you or you feel like it is ok to write a negative review because of your caveman ideology please get a life. Appreciate that we are in a neighborhood and country where there is diversity and freedom to open a business and work for a living instead of collecting welfare. I had the grilled cheese with vegetables on a toasted sesame bagel and it was amazing. $7. Where else could you score a sandwich for that prices? My friends had the bagels with egg salad and another with lox and creamcheese. Everyone was happy and satisfied. I will be back again and again because this is a legit good place. Thank you Bagels & CO! Much love from a new fan. read more

Dry tasteless stale waste of time and money avoid this place. Try Brooklyn bagel company for real good fresh products

Love this place!! Food is always delicious and very reasonable and the staff is always helpful and patient. When we have a morning appointment in the area, we always drop in for a quick lunch here and are never disappointed---- Our usual go-to lunch is a soup of the day and a bagel with a shmear---and we leave happy. We have also come here for a get-together with friends and are always pleased with the service and the great menu. We sat outside today in the back area and it was very pleasant--with huge umbrellas to shade us. Can't wait for our next reason to return for a treat read more

Love our neighborhood bagel shop! For an even better deal, we got it on the TGTG app. They gave us a dozen bagels/breads and they were fresh for days! Staff were nice and generous! Definitely coming back for more! Their veggie cream cheese is delicious as well! read more

Bagels & Co - TGTG bag! 12 in total! Great Value for fresh Bagels - Bagels Near Me - Fresh Meadows, New York

For a kosher bagel spot, it's pretty decent! I had their bagel and lox on scallion cream cheese -- and it hit the spot! We went on a Sunday morn around 12 pm. To my surprise, the line was not packed but as soon as I stepped inside, a huge line magically appeared behind me-- so I got lucky. The outdoor seating area looked a bit abandoned and there were napkins all over the floor. Perhaps pay a little more attention to outdoor maintenance. But all in all, I would return here the next time I'm in Long Island! read more

Popped in here once late Thursday morning and it was BUSY. Must be a local stronghold. Soft fluffy bagel with nice crisp outside and generous cream cheese. I don't eat many bagels but I feel like this really fits the amazing NYC bagel description. Great outdoor and indoor seating, more breakfast available and well staffed. I want to go back for more! read more

Bagels & Co - Everything bagel with Vegetable Cream Cheese - Bagels Near Me - Fresh Meadows, New York

Been coming here almost semiweekly since Covid started and buying a dozen bagel each time. Love their bagels but they are HUGE!! I'd likely argue that one bagel here equates to two Costco bagels Some of my favorite flavors include French toast bagel and blueberry bagel. This is one of the stores that brings me New York bagel pride and I would recommend to my out of state friends and family any time. At the store I did see two customers that were on their way leaving the store and were maskless. While the staff tried to get them to put their masks on, the customers said they were leaving any basically ignored the staff request. While it wasn't something the staff could control, I thought it was a bit disappointing. read more

My toasted everything bagel was a pillowy, dense, and flavorful perfection. The cream cheese spread was more than generous. It was efficient and I was in and out within 5 min despite there being 6 ppl ahead of me. There's a $10 minimum for card. Bagel cost $3.80. read more

Bagels & Co - Bagels Near Me - Fresh Meadows, New York

Not sure why the reviews are good. The service is absolutely awful. Employees are extremely rude - chastising you , and either ignore you or do not do their job in a managing the line and serving next customer in line. Food is nothing special. Been here twice and service consistently leaves me with bad taste. read more

They have really tasty bagels here. My new favorite bagel stop! Long line, but moved very quickly.

get this everyday before school. these bagels single handedly make school a million times better. if I could have only one bagel for the rest of my life, I would chose these. read more

Used the TGTG app to get 13 big and fluffy bagels for $5.99 this afternoon. What an incredible deal. They were so nice and listened when I said no raisin bagels please. Pickup was fast, bagels looked scrumptious and I somehow got the flavors I like most (Onion, Everything and Plain). Would go back again for breakfast and coffee. read more

Been meaning to try the bagels for longest time always crowed Stopped in today ordered two bagels didn't have one of the bagels I wanted at the counter one of the counter persons went out of his way to see if it was ready to come out of the oven it was and they were delicious.

I haven't been here for a few years, after it changed hands in 2017 and went downhill. Now that my recent favorite has closed (the owner retired), I'm happy I've given Bagels & Co. another try. The quality is once again really good. The bagels are soft on the inside and harder on the outside, with only moderate chewiness. The one spread I tried was full of the olives it promised. The premises were clean, and although the line went out the door at 11 am on a Sunday, the staff was efficient, friendly, and there were enough of them to make the wait under 10 minutes. There is plentiful outdoor seating in addition to a large dining room and seats opposite the counter where the line is waiting. In addition, the other baked goods and Jewish delicacies seemed really well prepared, although I haven't had a chance to try them yet. Added bonus: 30 minutes after I left the store, the extra bagels I'd bought to have at home were still warm. It seems the bagels are $1.25 each and the bagel with olive spread was $3.80, all very fair prices for today. read more

Worst bagel I've EVER HAD. Like I am shocked at how horrible this bagel is. It's burnt, no chew to it at all. Straight flat bread. Not even edible because it's burnt when I asked for it to be lightly toasted. I don't recommend this place to any New Yorker. The disappointment !! read more

Bagels & Co - Egg everything bagel - Bagels Near Me - Fresh Meadows, New York

Not really feeling this place at all. The customer service is terrible. I hate walking into a place of business where the employees look at me like they want to chop me up into a million pieces at 9 o clock in the morning. The employees here seem miserable and give off the worst energy. I absolutely hate it and to think that these are the people handling my food. The only good thing about this place is the everything bagel, that's all. It's almost one of the best everything bagels I think I've ever had but I hate the service so I don't even bother going anymore. Once in a while my boyfriend would stop by and pick me up one but he's starting to get annoyed with the service as well. Firstly, the vegetable cream cheese and the strawberry cream cheese both need work. The vegetable cream cheese has like specks of vegetables and it's just not working for me. The strawberry cream cheese is mousse consistency and I'm not sure why but the taste is okay. I had it on a cinnamon raisin bagel that was hard as a rock and there definitely wasn't enough strawberry cream cheese to combat my bagel. This place is located on a very business corner and they have a good amount of seating inside. There is also street parking available. read more

How this place has four-stars on Yelp is beyond me. It's an awful excuse for a good bagel. First of all, the only reason why I came here was because my go-to place was out of tofu cream cheese, and this was just around the corner. I called in advance to make sure they had it in stock and the woman on the phone was incredibly rude. Anyway, my normal order is a bagel with tofu cream cheese, and I usually get a half-pound of tofu to take home. This...at my usual spot...costs $5.70. When I was paying at Bagels & Co, it was almost $12!!! ABSURD. It's not like I even had any lox! I looked at the cashier and was like WTF HOW, and she pulled out the price list and showed me how a HALF POUND of tofu costs $6.50! WHO CHARGES THAT MUCH?! You could go to a local supermarket and get an entire container of Tofutti for half the price. Mind you, a half-pound here is MORE EXPENSIVE than my ENTIRE ORDER at my normal bagel shop. The bagel itself...I got a multigrain one...it may as well have been a rock. Disgusting. read more

The bagel was almost the same consistency as a roll. Plenty of egg and cheese which was tasty. The gentlemen that helped me was very pleasant, nice and had a quick hop to his step. The lady though beautiful was not very pleasant and very short to costumers. Parking can be difficult since it's surrounded by bus stops. Appears clean inside. Be warned you cannot get meat on your sandwich. read more

My daughter and I go to this bagel and co almost every day. The staff is so wonderful and friendly to my daughter and I. You feel the good energy of this place and know that they care. It's more then just food for them but customer service too. read more

Love them eat in it out. Best spot for right after appointments in a day off. Try the salads.

Had an onion bagel with whitefish... very good. Daughter had onion bialy with tofu scallion cream chz... she loved it and I did as well. The cream cheese was creamier than most tofu- based flavors. Take a look at their assortment of cream cheeses... the strawberry and blueberry look so delish... Service at the counter is good as well. I also like the decor with the tin ceiling and the separate dining room has brick walls. read more

This place is on the corner near where I work and the few times I went in there I've always gotten a very cold reception from the staff who seem very apathetic. Bagels don't have much taste and I don't think they use salted butter. I hadn't been in in a while and was in a rush so I went in today and asked for a toasted egg bagel with the chocolate chip cream cheese. They asked me several times and confirmed what I wanted and I kept repeating chocolate chip cream cheese. I opened it up and it was veggie cream cheese! Completely didn't listen or care. Didn't seem remotely interested in helping me today either. If you want a decent bagel on Union Turnpike, go to Bagels n Cream instead up by St. John's. Don't even waste your time here. read more

Came on a Sunday morning with my sister and it was fairly busy. There was a line of about 10 and the entire back room of seating was full. The bagels themselves are huge, texture is okay, but the flavors lack a little. My sister got the everything bagel and it was mostly sesame and poppy seeds. I do like their variety of cream cheese and having tofu cream cheese is always a plus for me. Price-wise I feel like they're comparable to Utopia bagels but the size is definitely more worth it here. read more

Terrible service, I came in for a to go order , and they have no control over their lines , they let their regular customers skip the line, super disappointed. One bagel with cream cheese shouldn't take 30 minutes. But I will say the bagel was absolutely delicious. read more

Prices are higher than most other bagel places which wouldn't be bad except this particular place has horrible servers. Came in on a Sunday morning around 11am and while they are reasonably packed with a line, the servers behind the counter are more caught up in their own conversations with each other than attending to the customers. I would understand if the place was empty but there was a line with quite a bit of people. On top of that, the person ringing everyone up overcharged me and wasn't even apologetic about it AND she only refunded me $5 instead of the full $7.50. Didn't make a scene since other people were waiting, but I certainly should have since she paid me little attention when I asked her about it and just moved on to the next customer. Onto the food now - the bagels are bigger and fresh, though I wish they would toast it instead of just heating it up. They fill up the bagel with A LOT of spread which makes up for their high prices. Their lox spread however was more on the cream cheese side than on the salmon side. I didn't really taste the salmon and barely saw little pieces in the cream cheese. In terms of returning, I'd probably come back once in a blue moon or just go to another bagel spot with better customer service. read more

Came here on a whim because this place is on my way home from work and I was a very hungry bagel lover. Around 4 PM I was happy to see they were fully stocked with both bagels and schmears although they were unfortunately out of blueberry bagels which are my favorite. I opted for a whole wheat bagel and cream cheese. Color me suprised my order came out to $3.81! Every other place I frequent in Queens charge $3 or less for the same thing. Thankfully the bagel itself was just ok, however more doughy than I like making me regret not getting a flagel. The service was meh, I would agree with other Yelpers who noted the young guys who work here seem like they'd rather be anywhere else in the world but here. read more

I never had a problem with this place , I used to come in and buy a bagel every so often... well, today was the last time I bought my breakfast at this place ! I simply wanted to order 2 bagels, and 2 juices! This guy AJ was cursing , yelling "I'm not your child"... and more! The way he was acting was in some way scary, it was crazy .. I had never experienced in my entire life for someone to treat me the way he was! He managed run away on the middle of me ordering... mumbling something while walking away ... Some other girl was there working too. When I asked her about the manager or the owner , she said she doesn't know how can I reach out to to someone to complain about this disaster, she was defending this guy AJ. The craziest part , here it comes. I got home , about to eat my bagel ... and the cream cheese is sour(strawberry cream cheese). Simple question- why do I deserve to get treated that way??? What did I do to get screamed at and cursed at ??? Being 7 months pregnant , I could simply get sick from that cream cheese .... and from the stress I just went thru at that place I could end up at the hospital !!!! This pandemic is hard for everyone and took a toll on everyone , but I don't run around curing and yelling at people ! We all going thru something , everyone should understand that and treat each other with respect ! Especially mommy's to be... if you see a pregnant woman, why go out of your way to treat her with disrespect ??? I wish you -AJ , one day to wake up , snap out of it , and to Learn a lesson ! We are all equal ! And you have to treat people the way you want to be treated!! read more

I'm all about the lox spread and this place has the best lox spread that I've found in Queens. Other places have better bagels, it's true, but so far this place cannot be beaten in terms of variety and quality when it comes to cream cheese. read more

amazing eggs and bagels! Also the workers are very nice as well as the owner. The best thing on the menu is the breakfast wrap with cheese.
