    Turkey bacon egg and cheese on everything
    Rahima J.

    A quick in and out place with fire sandwiches. They have a lot of premade options but it's also really easy to order and customize what you want. My sandwich definitely hit and was one I'll think about for a bit.

    Bacon egg & cheese on everything

    Very efficient bagel spot with a very nice bacon, egg & cheese! They have a solid lineup of bagels and schmears, and they also offer breakfast classics like pancakes and orange juice, plus baked goods. You can order at the counter or at one of four kiosks, making it super easy and quick to request even a complicated order. I was surprised at how quickly my order was made. When eating a BEC, I'm looking for a nice bagel with a lot of everything topping, crispy bacon, and melty cheese, and I got all of that from this. Very satisfied! But, if that's not what you're looking for, you can easily customize your sandwich on the kiosk. I'm so glad to find such a good spot in my neighborhood!

    Green onion Cream Cheese on a Bagel
    Katherine N.

    Every neighborhood deserves a dependable bagel shop, and for me, Broadway Bagels plays that role beautifully. Their bagels have that perfect balance--chewy yet flavorful, hearty without tipping into dense brick territory. My go-to order is the everything bagel with green onion cream cheese, a combination that consistently earns its place as a star performer in the bagel world. Now, let's address the elephant in the room--or rather, the mountain: the cream cheese. Yes, they're generous to the point of excess. It's practically an architectural feat. I usually end up editing the portion myself, but on the bright side, it makes the bagel hearty enough to stretch into two meals. Efficiency and indulgence in one. The one drawback is the absence of indoor seating. This isn't a "linger with your laptop" type of spot. Instead, I take my bagel three blocks down to Central Park, which, truthfully, turns the whole experience into something rather idyllic. Bagel in hand, city all around, nature just ahead--hard to complain. A neighborhood classic, and one I'm grateful to have nearby.

    A solid place to get bagels. The dough is good, they have a good selection of cream cheese and bagels and the prices are pretty decent. I got the scallion cream cheese on the garlic bagel and my sister got the everything bagel with egg, turkey and cheese.

    Ever since absolutely bagels closed down, I've been trying to find another bagel place. Broadway bagel is now my new bagel place. My favorite is the egg everything bagel. Scallion and lox cream cheese hits, and I've also had a BEC on egg everything. Quick turnaround, friendly folks behind the counter.

    Absolutely spectacular Bagel place on the UWS. We tried Modern, we tried Tal, we tried Absolute Bagels (now closed) and were happy that we found this amazing place, but sad that we did not find this sooner! Self-service options, extensive selection, quick service and most importantly - reasonably priced (Modern has good selection, but expensive and is closed on Sat. and Tal is just expensive). This will be our go-to place for bagels.

    My new go-to bagel spot in the UW after Absolute closed! I have been on the hunt for a bagel shop with an egg bagel that is on-parr with Absolute's custardy, slightly sweet egg bagel. Broadway Bagel's egg bagel is a good replacement! The scallion-lox cream cheese is packed full of lox! No small lox bits here. The plain scallion cream cheese is also great! Unfortunately, they ran out of plain egg bagels when I came (Friday afternoon). So, I settled for the everything egg bagels-- still tasty. Service was very fast-- no line and convenient kiosks with ipads to order. Bo's egg bagels was a disappointment, but I would recommend Broadway Bagel's egg bagel!

    Our friends had this delivered to their apt after arriving in from a long flight. My sandwich was really damn good. I also got hash browns with it and they were good. I also got a couple bagels to eat later on the day. I'm very happy with the results and can't wait to try other food in the future.

    Great fantastic The bagel was fresh. Soft plenty of cream cheese, onions, and tomatoes. Good but the locks If that's what you're looking for is the locks you get plenty of locks that it is top cut and you can take a look at the pics When it's good, I'll say it's good and this is really good

    Excerpt from my video @bagelmavennyc on instagram
    Phil H.

    First lemme say, WOW! The bagel size is tremendous.... Service was quick with lots of staff...Lots to choose from in spreads...fairly crowded. So you ask, "why only 4 stars?" Here comes the negative. First no seating available. Had to take my bagel and cawfee to the Broadway Mall benches and consume breakfast there. Cawfee not that hot. Now onto to the goods. Despite the oversized bagel, seasonings were not only light on the seasoned side but non existent on the bottom. Also the bagel was about 90% cooked leaving it a little too chewy. Decent experience but slight room for improvement. I will go back to give them a second chance at getting to at least the top ten. Perhaps being a busy Saturday led to deficiencies.

    Everything Toasted with Scallion Cream Cheese and Egg
    Vivienne C.

    My favorite bagels in the UWS is Absolute Bagels but when I know that there are too many people waiting at that place, I come to Broadway Bagels. I feel so sad to say that they are second best, but trust me they are still amazing. Put them anywhere else in America and they will be the best tasting bagels you've ever had. I always get the Everything Toasted Bagel with Scallion Cream Cheese and Egg wherever I go, I really should change it up though. The cream cheese itself is delicious, extremely scallion-y which goes well with the eggs, although I wish they were fluffier. The everything bagel is also delicious as well although the outside bits could be ever so slightly crispier. This is all just nit picky things but I still really enjoy this bagel! Overall, solid bagel place in NYC. The wait here is also pretty short, we waited only 3 minutes on a Sunday morning which I consider a win.

    Snowy day calls for a hot bagel sandwich with egg, sausage, and cream cheese. I'm usually a BEC girl but today I wanted to mix it up! I really enjoy their sausage and you can't beat this spot for a quick bagel on the UWS. The store front itself is very clean and the counter guys are friendly!

    Good bagels! The only disappointment was that they were pretty sparse with the flavorings like Everything Bagels, Sesame and so on.

    My friend and I came to PJ Clarke's to watch the Knicks in the NBA Finals, and despite the…read moredisappointing outcome of the game, we had a great night. We were thrilled to find two seats at the end of the bar when we arrived. As luck would have it, the two gentlemen next to us eventually left, allowing us to slide over and enjoy an even better view of the TV for the rest of the game. I started with a Tito's and club soda, but unfortunately, something seemed off--perhaps the club soda was flat. The drink just wasn't good. To their credit, the bartender took it back without hesitation and was very accommodating. I then ordered a Negroni after the woman sitting next to us highly recommended it. I don't usually drink gin, but this cocktail was absolutely delicious and changed my mind. Since we were there for several hours, we shared an order of zucchini and eggplant chips and happily snacked on them throughout the game. The atmosphere was comfortable and welcoming, with a nice mix of ages and people enjoying the evening. We made sure to leave our bartender a generous tip since we occupied our seats for the entire game. Even though the Knicks didn't pull out a win that night, we certainly didn't leave defeated. I'd happily return for another game, cocktail, and fun evening out. And maybe even get dinner there. Little did I know there was another big room in the ack once you past the restrooms. They were having a thriving business there!

He was constantly busy zippin around but maintained a nice demeanor and made everyone feel welcome! Must orders of mine: the burger! Although small, it comes out piping hot and the fresh white onion between the bottom bun and burger is awesome because it doesn't make the bottom bun soggy and catches all the juices from the actual meat. Love subbing the fries for a Caesar salad! Standout appetizer is the fried zucchini and eggplant with tzatziki-- crispy, hot, juicy and I get it every time!

I was called back and the person who called me was very nice and was happy to make this change for us.

First of all we were a bit late due to traffic and weather but the staff was really understanding! Next, our waiter accidentally put in 2 pastas instead of a burger we ordered but had that fixed immediately and took it off our tab which was a super nice surprise. We got a couple things to share and everything was delicious! The monkey bread was totally worth the hype! Steak was cooked perfectly and the pasta was delicious. Also got a couple drinks!

    Monkey Bar became one of my favorite Midtown restaurants because its modern history ran almost…read moreperfectly alongside my years in New York. I arrived in 2008 with very little, and when Graydon Carter revived the restaurant in 2009, I was beginning a rise of my own, first at a large global bank and then, to my astonishment, at one of the city's most powerful investment firms. The suits were daily, the walls were gold, and the pressure was so consuming that even success could feel like a form of attrition. After a few years, I moved to a smaller firm with Southern roots, where the culture was more humane, the work gave me greater autonomy, and I produced some of the strongest results of my career, even within an industry still governed by fear, greed, and status. Inside, the red booths, low lighting, generous spacing, and hand-painted monkey murals made lunch feel ceremonial without becoming stiff. The room was timeless and handsome, with polished service, quality food, and the subtle assurance of a place where you could be proud to bring someone important. I especially remember sitting in one of those booths with two mentors, each only a few years older than I was and therefore close enough in vintage to feel relatable, trustworthy, and genuinely within reach. One had entered my life after I left the larger firm and helped me understand an earlier chapter that had also ended abruptly and, at the time, felt deeply unfair; the other had guided me through the smaller firm where I finally found a more sustainable way to work. Over that long lunch, I introduced them, we discussed several promising ideas, and for a moment my career seemed to have reached the point where relationships, experience, and opportunity were finally converging. One of those ideas consumed an extraordinary amount of my time and energy, and I believed it might become the foundation of my next chapter. Instead, the arrangement eventually turned on me, the role I thought I had earned never materialized, and the business itself sputtered. My professional life, financial footing, and pride all collapsed just as COVID was beginning. Then Monkey Bar closed in 2020, which made the ending feel almost unnervingly complete: the restaurant, the city, and the version of myself built around New York finance all went dark at once. For years, I experienced that ending as devastating and unfair; now I can see it as wisdom delivered through an unnecessarily rough process. The restaurant's later revival by a Chicago hospitality group feels fitting because it still honors tradition and ceremony while allowing the old forms to evolve into something healthier, looser, and more current. I have not been back since that lunch, but a return now would feel like visiting the museum of my past, not reclaiming a life that asked too much, gave too little, and finally lost its hold on me. Even now, I remember Monkey Bar as a great Midtown lunch in a memorable room, surrounded by the residue of old ambitions and the gratitude of having survived them. The cocktails were sharp, the service was impeccable, and the dining room carried that glamorous old New York energy without feeling trapped by it. I remain deeply fond of the place, partly for what it was and partly for what it witnessed. Some restaurants become attached to a chapter of your life, and Monkey Bar holds mine with unusual grace.
