    OMG, REAL BUTTER..... Yes , I said it. It's true. Hard to find a bagel store that still uses REAL Butter. This bagel store is so friendly and welcoming and then to take a bit of my sandwich to find real butter was so unexpected. Affordable prices, clean and delicious. I will absolutely be stopping back here.

    For a place that calls themselves " express" they never pick up the phone to take orders. If you're in a rush don't bother

    They yell at customers inquiring about their order. There are plenty of bagel places on Long Island that value having customers.

    Horrible! "Bake-off" mass produced commercial bagels bought frozen which should be absolutely…read moreboycotted in favor of "real" boiled then baked bagels. Tip off is the seeds/flavoring only on one side, usually just the very top and pan marks baked into the underside. And no flavor unless piping hot out of the bake-off racks. Sad, I used to stumble out of the Mad Hatter (Stony Brook) in the 1970s and there was a great Strathmore (the original?) a few doors down already open at 4am. They were great and not these knock offs.

    worker wanted to fight me? I was waiting for my order and the guy continued to go to the kitchen…read moreblatantly ignoring me after the order was already packed up. then proceeds to be rude at 6:45am....im obviously still waking up confused and asked what the issue was as I don't think I've given you attitude and told me he wouldn't give me my order. I said I've come here multiple times and never had an issue with you as I've seen you maybe even everyday so please remember my face for next time? he then says let's go outside so I can take a picture which I was confused as to why outside or why even a picture? so I said now you want to fight me or something? I just want the food? Until another worker just walks in and hands me the food no problem? I was truly baffled I won't lie and I hope the manager sees this review so he can talk to his employee look at the cameras on Fri July 11 2025 I want to say around 6:45am I cam in with a bag of chips eating them waiting patiently for the food and then went to the bathroom after throwing it out while he was packing the food and then you will see he ran to the door to fight me I kid you not it's insane the energy he had so early in the morning! I mean the woman he was addressing before me didn't get that attitude wth?! I have a picture of him tho and I'll be sure to let his manager know when I get the chance....or if I don't forget....

The sausage & egg were not large enough for the bagel. This was also one of the more expensive bagel sandwiches I've bought in the area and I don't think the quality matches the price. The place also felt messy and unclean. Maybe the quality and cleanliness would have been better if I got food first thing in the morning, but I don't think I'll be heading back here anytime soon given the other options in the area.

    If this place was ever really worthy of the high Yelp rating, I'd be pretty shocked…read more As soon as I moved back to the island, the first thing I immediately missed was walking downstairs to my bodega and getting egg sammies in the morning, then walking downstairs to the same awesome bodega, full of craft beers, in the middle of the night for chicken over rice and sh*t... so, I urgently searched for a nearby deli (there are none) but this place is all I've got other than the spot in the train station. So I made my way over there to try em out. Long Island really rapes you on a bacon egg and cheese, or at least this crap-hole does. Paid something close to $9 and it was god awful. I have a hard time believing this ever could have been good. I see 80-90% of the pix on here are from one dude three years ago, some look good n all, but this place is anything but. Hard pass.
