Andrea U.

I used the too good to go app and picked up a dozen bagels for six dollars at the end of the day. I was running late and arrived 10 minutes after they closed. I telephoned and they left the door unlocked and I was able to pick up my bag. They were busy cleaning up at the end of the day and I appreciate them keeping the door

I can vouch for the Poppy Seed Bagels... that's all I get here. Stopped by for a dozen, sliced. Hadn't had a breakfast sandwich in a while, so had one with an egg, over easy... as they said it was made to order... trying to avoid the cooked-in-advance scrambled eggs. When the scrambled eggs is done right, it's better.

Maybe the best bagels in the area. If not, they are close to it. Sunday morning line moved quickly. I was there to get my order that was done online Friday. When it was my turn,the woman needed my name and it was right there. Hint: She said that in the future to pick up an online order I don't need to wait on line. I can just get it at the counter.

Plain & Asiago bagels.

I have a love-hate relationship with this bagel place. When it's good, it's very good, but when it's bad, let's just say that it's not as good. The ice coffee is always good. They have a variety of flavored coffees and a few different creamers. I tried the pumpkin creamer today, as it's one of their seasonal flavors. I liked it, but I will probably stick with the hazelnut next time, as that is my favorite. I haven't had coffee in several months, so today was a real treat. I picked up a few types of bagels, vegetable cream cheese as well as some plain cream cheese. This morning everything was good. The veggie cream cheese was a little light on vegetables but still tasty. When I went to swipe my card, the cashier told me the "tip" was optional. I always tip, but today, I gave her a little extra because her honesty was a nice change of pace, not to mention she was delightful. After staying away for a while, I am glad I stopped in and gave them another chance. Both the bagels and cream cheese were quite good, and my iced coffee was incredible. The icing on the cake was that the cashier put a smile on my face and was super nice, too.

Everything bagel with nova cream cheese
Kathy W.

We had a wonderful breakfast! Bagels were delicious! I had the everything bagel, scooped out, lightly toasted with nova cream cheese. My husband had the everything bagel sandwich with bacon, egg and cheese. Very delicious! Service with a smile, wonderful, warm people working there. I was very impressed since so many bad reviews. I say they're full of it, these people are super nice!

Everything Bagel with eggs and cheese

Great tasting bagels! Never had any issues here. I usually order on the app and everything has been ready as promised! And fresh too.

The bagels taste like they came from the grocery store. The veggie cream cheese needs more veggies in it. The service was fast & friendly.

The Delray spot is larger with an organized process into the familiar mess of ordering at a deli -- each table has a pager placemat which makes order delivery smooth. I went with my longtime regular Western omelette sandwich. Everything here is solid -- iced coffee, lunch (Reuben's, pastrami), salads, breakfast (smoked salmon platters, egg sandwiches). Bagels With is a local legend for the delicatessen aficionado.

The bagels here are fresh enough that they don't need a toaster to begin with, which is exactly why I asked for it untoasted. Even with the unnecessary trip through the toaster, it was still a really good sandwich. The tuna salad is creamy, well seasoned, and they even let me sample it before ordering, which is always appreciated. Confidence in your food says a lot. The pickle on the side had that perfect crisp snap every good deli pickle should have. The only thing that missed the mark was the macaroni salad. The flavor is there, but the pasta was overcooked and a little mushy. If they tighten that up, it's an easy win. The restaurant itself is surprisingly large, clean, and comfortable, and everyone I dealt with was genuinely friendly. Overall, this is the kind of neighborhood bagel shop you hope to find. Good food, good people, and just enough personality to make you want to come back.

I'd rather pay a little more and get a really good breakfast at Bagels with Deli.

I'll start with the positives; the bagels were fresh and the scallion cream cheese was worth the $1.99 upcharge. My friend enjoyed his coffee, and he liked that they left a carafe on the table so he didn't have to wait for refills. The rest of the meal was a complete letdown, as both of our egg orders were wrong, and neither the eggs nor the home fries had any flavor. And the food was also very greasy and just not very good. It was a disaster. I understand mistakes happen, but this wasn't just one issue, it was both of our breakfasts. When we politely sent our breakfasts back, our server became irritated and argumentative, instead of apologizing or trying to make things right. Then, when we questioned a $4.99 charge for the scallion cream cheese upcharge, she became just mean and arrogant. The actual charge was $1.99, and the manager corrected her error. I always try to be fair in my reviews because everyone can have an off day, but a an arrogant and nasty attitude is completely unacceptable behavior. Definitely not coming back anytime soon, as I will continue to support my favorite bagel spots where I can get both good food and service without any attitude.

Coming in May meant drastically less of a wait than in the Winter months which was nice. We were seated in a booth and immediately brought out complimentary marble cake for the table. We ordered our drinks (a hot tea for me and a hot coffee for my husband) which were included with our breakfast specials. I got a bowl of oatmeal (brought out as more of an appetizer) as well as the brown sugar, raisin, and cinnamon fixings. Just as I finished that, my two eggs over medium with wheat toast as well as my husband's scrambled eggs and home fries with rye toast arrived. I highly suggest signing up for their rewards program. We got 10% off our bills all month long! You may see some reviews complaining about the seniors that are the majority of the clientele at all times. If you ask me, that's the sign of a good NY style deli and you just need to find amusement in it. Everyone's there for the good food, unbeatable prices for what you get, and classic deli vibes.

Megan was our server extraordinaire and brought me a large cup of delicious brewed coffee. We both got the breakfast special which included a drink.

Dave loves that-I prefer savory butter lol! Then the eggs were a very large portion and done just right. I swear I had a bagel that was on steroids lol! It was the biggest bagel that I have ever seen. David got two large pancakes along with warmed syrup! Who could ask for anything more. Megan said the bagels were baked right there! The price was a modest $9.99! A bargain considering we usually pay over $3.00 a cup of coffee here. It makes me sad that I left my home there 12 years ago!

It was dry as expected, but had no flavor. She orders the brisket at all the other Jewish deli's in the area and all have flavor, although very dry when ordered extra lean.

The only comments were the rye bread looked packaged from a market, not your typical Jewish Rye, but they still enjoyed their sandwich. The remodel is really first class, definitely the nicest Jewish deli in the area.
