    17. Chopped Cheese
    James W.

    I got a chance to get a Chopped Cheese sandwich with lettuce and tomatoes on a hero roll. for breakfast and it was delicious. I paired it with a Snapple Fruit Punch. It definitely was the perfect combination to start the day. The service was great. It took only a few minutes to get my order. They have many menu options to choose from. It's a small restaurant so not much seating room but I was able sit outside at the little bench areas right outside. Will be back soon for another round!

    BEC on Pumpernickel
    Patrick Z.

    Fire BEC on pumpernickel, the way they wrap up the cheese in the egg is like beautiful honestly. Bagel was nice and fluffy. Got a tropical smoothie too since I just finished a run, and I chose the Tropical Sunshine. It was pretty good and really fresh, although I did wish it was a bit sweeter, not in the sense of extra sugar but I feel the fruits themselves werent as sweet as normal but it still was a great pair to the sandwich.

    The sandwiches are sooo good!! I'm going to make this a must stop every time I am in !!

    Ok so being 100% honest it wasn't what I expected. It wasn't bad. Just not what I expected. I had a Reuben on ciabatta. It tasted more like a corned beef with Big Mac special sauce. Good but not a Reuben. The wife had some sort of southwestern chicken sandwich that tasted really good. For some reason it came up when I searched for bagels and we weren't too far of a walk away. It had been a long day and it hit the spot. It's a decent sandwich shop but you're better off hitting a deli if you want that NY experience. There's a very small bench area inside so incredibly limited seating. Outside there is seating and a few pigeons. Walking distance from ground zero and the 9/11 museum. I should have taken some food pics. The pigeons were more fun.

    The holy grail of delicious bagels and sandwiches! Came here after reading other reviews and so glad we did. I had the bacon, egg and cheese on a garlic bagel and my friend ordered a chopped cheese sandwich is pretty much like a ground beef, adobo and cheese sandwich with lettuce and tomatoes on a hero roll. They have great service as well. It's a small place so not much room to sit for large parties or strollers so we sat out at the little bench areas near by. I am definitely coming back here anytime I'm in NYC Go here for breakfast or lunch, you won't regret it !!!

    Unassuming and hard to find if you aren't looking. It is a narrow shop so if more than 5-7 people are in here it would be packed. It is a small spot but packs a punch. They have freshly made cookies which I has. The churro nutella were awesome and I would reorder. The muffins looked delicious as well. I would however go with the bagels. Large fluffy and delicious. The turkey sandwich I got on a bagel was lovely. Would definitely come back.

    Tribeca sandwich on a hero
    Andrew L.

    Great sandwich! Had walked by but did not realize the variety of sandwiches that Brooklyn Bread Cafe offers until coming across their menu on Seamless. Had the Tribeca sandwich on a hero - nicely prepared and a good size. Will need to come back to try some of the other sandwiches.

    Best bagel i've ever had!! So many options for everyone. Very big portions. More of a grab and go vibe unless you want outside seating

    Jessica T.

    Best breakfast spot in NYC hands down. It's agreeable that NYC has the best bagels, and this spot takes the win. Lots of options and very customizable for anyone and everyone. Coffee is great too. We will be visiting each time we come.

    French Toast
    Stacy C.

    Perfectly chewy bagels. Love the large sized bagels. They have an array of standard bagels and some specialty ones aa well, like the Prosciutto Bagel. French Toast Bagel and Whole Wheat Ciabatta Bagel. The also have a large sandwich board with deli favorites. Very clean space. Counter seating and a few tables outside as well. Hot spot for construction workers in that area- just saying lol. Friendly Staff.

    Ordered on their website. 15 minute pick up time ended up being 38. It was a quicker wait for the people who ordered in the store - saw one girl get in and out in 20 minutes. Very little room to stand and wait inside. The people working there were definitely rushing and doing a good job getting things out, but would've appreciated a better ETA. Felt like there could've been more meat on the sandwich. And they forgot an ingredient I paid extra for. Disappointing.

    Egg bagel and coffee
    Irene L.

    The bagels here are very good. I had the egg bagel with cream cheese for $4.75. Texture was soft and delicious. Fast service and there are stools and tables here. The coffee here is standard.

    This is an excellent little bagel shop in Tribeca. I recommend them for quality bagels, cookies and coffee.

Booths were available just beyond table and chair seating. Love the wood and leather finishes and soft lighting choices that create a subdued atmosphere even mid-day.

The spicy carrot hummus was recommended and didn't disappoint as well as the grilled chicken sandwich w/ bbq sauce on a buttered pretzel bun.

The breakfast items that I ordered were fast to make, with good service. I was able to get the omelette without the ham. The vegetarian omelette was thick and fluffy, with a good amount of sliced portobello mushrooms and spinach. It came with a side of market salad (leafy greens, cherry tomatoes, carrot, radish, cucumber), making it a great low-carb & high-protein breakfast option. The fruits platter was also excellent - came with a good amount of various sliced fruits (cantaloupe, honeydew, orange, kiwi, pineapple, strawberries, blueberries) that were all very fresh. The milk, however tasted thick and a bit bitter. Not sure if they gave me homogenized milk (3.25%) or the milk was starting to turn bad. Unfortunately I couldn't drink it.

I also ordered a Diet Pepsi with grenadine; they don't carry Diet Coke, which I almost docked a point for, but the mix was unexpectedly delicious. Highly recommend it. My date ordered the hanger steak and said it was absolutely amazing. Only hiccup: his first glass of wine he got came out hot... like, microwave-level warm. Fortunately, the server brought a new (cold) one and the rest of the meal was smooth sailing. Service was friendly, the vibe was homey and relaxed, and the food was solid across the board. Would definitely come back, especially for that salad and another round of grenadine magic.

It's $25 for unlimited drinks plus food by the way. Which is sad is a deal these days. Anyway, their happy hour is solid enough for a Monday and was meeting up with a friend I hadn't seen in over a year. Place is actually very cute. There are no tvs which I appreciate and the paneling of the walls and decor with all the flowers is quite tasteful. Happy hour deals 4-7pm Mon-Fri & all night Thursday apparently: Aperol Spritz $8, Hugo Spritz $9, Paloma $10, Mules $9, Draft Beers (except Guinness) $7, House Wine $9. As well as 2 Appetizer Bites for $19.95. Not the best but not the worst. I'm normally not a Spritz kind of gal. I think watering down prosecco or wine is heinous. But it was a Monday and I didn't exactly feel like powering down into happy hour so Aperol Spritz it was which switched to a Modelo later. It was the perfect drink situation on a god awful hot as hell day. We also ordered the fish tacos and what initially were the curry fries but they brought out the Greek fries. I wasn't mad about it. Honestly was torn between the two and I don't send food back unless something really bad happened. But it was essentially a side of Caesar salad dressing with feta cheese and generous amount of herbs on a very sparse and frugal amount of crispy standard cut fries. Now I know why it's a 2 for $20 deal. The tacos were 3 in an order which I guess is typical. They weren't bad but nothing stood out to me. I'd come for the drinks or try something else on the menu.
