Everything bagel with scallion cream cheese
Amelia C.

Love the bagels here. They are the perfect combo of chewy and soft. Grab a few for later since the they still have the right texture after a day or two! I only wish they toasted the bagels better - there's barely a difference between untoasted and toasted (I've ordered both).

Taylor ham, egg, and cheese on a plain bagel.

Does this shop make Montreal Style Bagels? We had these recently in Mexico and loved them. Looking for similar bagels here in North Jersey.

“To rebut fellow Yelper, David R.: theoretically there may be "better" bagels somewhere in the tri-state area.”

I went to Bagels by Jarrett tonight based on a recommendation from an Instagram influencer…read more I have to say, they have a weird setup. You can't go in the actual restaurant. If you ordered ahead of time, you park in front of the restaurant and wait in your car as a girl comes and gives you your order. Otherwise, you go into the restaurant next door, The Slice Shop, and order from a tablet. Odd. I wound up ordering The Cutlet Joe Triple Decker. It was a good sandwich, don't get me wrong, but it costs $22. That's kinda wild. It comes with a side of chips, pickles, and coleslaw. I also ordered a buffalo ranch slice from the slice shop, which cost $5. Also decent. I definitely appreciate the uniqueness of their menu, but I won't be returning for a long time due to the high prices.

BXJ is the real deal…read more You can tell immediately this isn't "just a business," it's a craft. Jarrett serves everything, and I mean everything -- bagels, pizza, cheesesteaks, subs...need gluten free? He's got that too The food speaks for itself...everything tastes fresh, perfectly textured, and is consistently excellent. But what really sets this place apart is the pride behind it. You don't get that rushed, transactional vibe here. You get someone who actually wants you to have a great experience, and it shows in every interaction and order. Customer service is second to none. Jarret is friendly, transparent, present, and genuinely invested in what he's doing. That's rare these days -- and it makes the whole place feel different in the best way. You feel not just satisfied, but impressed. Like you just found a spot you're going to keep going back to without even thinking about it.
