Stopped by Brooklyn Water Bagel and overall had a pretty good experience. I tried both the salt bagel and everything bagel, along with the regular cream cheese and the chive & onion cream cheese. The everything bagel was definitely my favorite of the two. I personally wouldn't order the salt bagel again, it was way too salty for me, even considering that it's obviously supposed to be a salt bagel. The regular cream cheese was fine but nothing particularly memorable. The chive & onion, however, was really good and easily the better choice. It added a lot more flavor and paired perfectly with the bagel. The inside is nice, clean, and has that casual, modern bagel-shop atmosphere. There's plenty of seating if you want to sit down rather than grab your food to go. Service was pretty standard, nothing negative, but nothing that particularly stood out either. Overall, a solid bagel spot, especially if you choose the right combination. I'd definitely come back for an everything bagel with the chive & onion cream cheese, but I'll be skipping the salt bagel next time. 4/5 stars. read more

The service was good. The staff were nice and helpful. I had the breakfast option, egg and cheese on sourdough bagel. It was pretty good and satisfactory. I split it with my husband. I bought 6 sesame bagels. They offered to cut it and I said excitedly, yes. The place was quiet at that time and they have seatings that are comfortable and not crowded. read more

Always a good option for bagels and coffee. Bagels are crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. They also taste great. We ordered bagel sandwiches. One with just egg and cheese and the other the same but with bacon. Both tasted great. Love the coffee station where you can create your own coffee combination and go back to refill it once you're done. read more

Okay, people... seriously. What bagel chain is out here making actual New York-water bagels? Because I'm convinced this one does. And if that wasn't enough, they even make coffee ice so your iced coffee never gets watered down. I mean--come on. That alone blew me away. This was only my second visit, and once again, I left impressed. One of the main reasons we came back today is because my son's girlfriend is gluten intolerant, and she absolutely LOVED the gluten-free bagels I picked up for her last time. She basically insisted we return--and I'm glad we did. Another hit. For me-- this time, I got the veggie spread on a sesame bagel, and I enjoyed that one so much more than last visit. The coffee bar is fantastic, and I didn't realize during my first visit that they actually freeze coffee for the ice. Brilliant. If you're in the Lake Nona area, highly recommend. Great bagels, great coffee, great service. I'll definitely be back! read more

Brooklyn Water Bagel - Everything Bagel with plain cream cheese - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Orlando, Florida

I went to Brooklyn Water Bagel for breakfast. When I entered it was a little dark and looked closed but the doors were open. Then I was greeted by a cashier who took my order. I ordered a bacon, egg, and cheese on a sesame seed bagel, my husband ordered a bacon, egg, and cheese on an everything bagel with 2 hashbrowns, and a cubsta iced coffee. When we received our bagels they were lukewarm. We were the only people eating in the dining room so I didn't understand why it was just lukewarm. The bagel sandwiches looked amazing but tasted bland. The hashbrowns were the worst part of the meal. They weren't crispy at all and had a funny aftertaste. I've been to the Winter Park location before and had an enjoyable meal so I expected the same from the Narcoossee location but unfortunately we were disappointed. read more

Love bagels and when this place opened we were very happy. The bagel sandwiches are great and the staff is friendly. Our favorites are the lox and cream cheese, tuna and egg and cheese and our favorite bagels are the jalapeño cheese, Asiago and everything bagels. Our only suggestion is that we love sitting outside but can't because there is no shade and the sun is brutal. Would love to see some umbrellas so that the outside seating can be utilized. read more

Got half a dozen bagels to bring home - they tasted like they were two days old - hard and stale. Not sure what happened since I first tried them, but won't be going back and will stick to having my bagels shipped from NY read more

I was craving a good bagel breakfast sandwich so I decided to stop in and grab a BEC. It was so good and full of great flavor! I love their bagels and Asiago is my go too but I did the BEC on an onion bagel today. 4/5, my Asiago is 5/5. But if you want a good bagel, this is the place ! They have so many to chose from and tons of spread . read more

This will probably be my new go to bagel shop or whenever I'm craving a New York bagel! They're fresh, made to order and have many options for sandwiches with the best combos. Quick service as I ordered ahead online, they have a rewards program where you can get some nice perks. I tried both a bacon egg and cheese on an Asiago bagel & Everything bagel. It was deliciousss, I can't wait to come back and explore their iced coffee station which looked like it had a lot of options for add ins! read more

I love this bagel shop! Bagels are quality, plenty of options, Jalapeño cream cheese on a garlics bagel is my go-to. The service is excellent, and everyone is so friendly! But my favorite game-changer? Their ice cubes are made out of coffee! So no watery iced coffee, and they have several different kinds of cold brews - my fav is the Dark roast. read more

Brooklyn Water Bagel - Everything bagel with jalapeño cream cheese and large Brooklyn Dark Roast iced coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Orlando, Florida

I was visiting from out of town and came here even though I have one close to home because it always hits. The bagels are fresh and the breakfast sandwiches are delicious. I had a bacon, egg, and cheese on an Asiago bagel- so good. I also had a Cubsta iced coffee that was very good as well. I def need to go back to try their lunch bagels. The restaurant is clean and has plenty of tables. It was quiet and cold and would be a great work or study spot. read more

I will say, the bagels are not like the ones you get in NY, but they're not bad, and are a cut above than what you would get at the grocery store. I especially love their coffee, and I love that their ice is frozen coffee, which won't dilute the drink while the ice melts. I also add the hazelnut and vanilla creamer and I'm set for the whole day. The service is always so nice and they have plenty of seating to sit while you enjoy your first meal on a lazy Sunday morning. read more

Brooklyn Water Bagel - Original bagel with Jalapeño creme cheese - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Orlando, Florida

This is my 2nd time here and UMMMmm... One thing is certain is that this is not a brooklyn bagel it does not come close to it. Im a native New Yorker only been in this state for a few months and Im so missing a good bagel shop. Be warn!!!. The staff is friendly and the small place is clean. I order a raisin toasted bagel with bacon eggs and cheese.. The bagel was warm like microwave the bacon was not crisp or even cooked and the eggs is not real. I asked for over easy and was told they don't have it. I still order it anyway I should of known.... we'll maybe for next time... I just get so upset when nowadays shops are able to proclaimed a name and don't live up to it. The café was good though. Wasn't water down and it was hot. Give it a try. read more

Brooklyn Water Bagel - Bacon cheese and fake eggs on raisin "toasted" not bagel. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Food quality: 4/5 Service: 5/5 Cleanliness: 5/5 Value: 5/5 Had my experience with Brooklyn Water Bagel today! This restaurant was still in the soft opening phase and I think they did well for opening not too long ago. When you walk in, you see an array of coffees, teas, and creamers - lots of variety. The menu can be found above the cash registers and there's a lot to choose from! This is a franchise operation with this store being the 4th in the state of Florida. We ordered online (surprised it was an available option) and was able to pick it up with 15 minutes of ordering. The garlic bagel I ordered wasn't quite ready, so I opted to wait a few more minutes for it to be done baking. While I waited, I could see the cashiers working their way through the orders slowly as they seemed to be getting used to the new POS system. Customers didn't way too long, overall. My group ordered a Williamsburg, and pastrami egg and cheese. The garlic bagel with the Williamsburg felt a bit over baked as it was crunchy when I bit into it, and it wasn't supposed to be toasted either. I also asked for no onions, but there were still onions added. The pastrami sandwich was better, the bagel was a good chewiness and had good flavor with the everything bagel. Overall, not too bad. I would go back again to give it another try and I'm sure they will work out the kinks. read more

I love Brooklyn Water Bagel. Louis is awesome, great customer service! Fantastic breakfast

on a positive note they do have egg bagels now but it is a insult to any new Yorker to call what you consider a bacon egg and cheese you serve a microwave pre cooked egg totally disgusting read more

These bagels are top tier! I do really enjoy the coffee ice cubes and the flavored creamer and syrups - a pleasant surprise. They also will refill your coffee ice cubes while you dine in or wait. The service is fast and the team is helpful. I've been a few times and each time I notice how much effort they take with cleaning. The line/ waiting area can be a bit stressful but I usually find a corner and wait or a table. I highly recommend the hash brown. Another great addition to Lake Nona. read more

Service is great. Was greeted with a friendly welcome. Bagels are always fresh and warm. Highly recommend !

Truly one of the worst bagels I've ever had. Dry and flavorless. Absolutely nothing like New York bagels. I think those dreadful Thomas bagels are better. read more

Love these bagels! When toasted they are crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. One of the few places I've been able to find asiago bagels and they are delicious! read more

Yeah, so I went to this place and ate one time and thought the food was awesome A week later, I was craving it so I thought I would order some food ahead of time and go pick it up I saw on the website that they had an app. Great. Downloaded the app. Went into the app and tried to order the items I wanted and it's broken and not clear when you're trying to order complex breakfast sandwiches. The item I wanted to buy their salmon, capers, onion etc samdwhich. is normally like $12 but for some reason configuring it properly in the app made it $20 No worries, a lot of small business apps are broken. I decided just to call the store and order. Right away when she answers the phone and I tell her I'd like to make a Takeaway order she tells me that they don't take orders over the phone anymore. I let her know that I couldn't place the order with the app and there wasn't really much she could say about it, but she also wouldn't take my order so I've just decided not to eat at this place anymore. If you wanna have the app - cool. If you wanna tell me on the phone you won't take my order, your app better work. Terrible customer service. read more

Great bagel & really like the Cubsta iced coffee! A lot of bagel, sandwich & drink options. Excellent customer service!

One of my go to breakfast places!! I have celiac so it's hard for me to find places that even do breakfast more than just gluten free toast on the side with eggs and bacon. To be able yo get a full breakfast bagel sandwich with coffee as well as a lunch options like tuna or egg salad is amazing!! And the staff is so lovely and kind! Although the place isn't 1000% gluten free, they do their best and so far I've been safe and taken care of :) read more

So listen - credit where it's due. The everything bagel with tuna, tomato, and cheese? Not bad at all. The flavors worked, it was fresh, and I left full and satisfied. If we're grading this as a sandwich on a circular bread-shaped object, it earns its points. BUT. As someone who grew up with real bagels (hello NJ/NY!), I feel morally obligated to say: this is not a bagel. Not a real one. And it's certainly not made with Brooklyn water unless Brooklyn moved to Central Florida and started drinking from a filtered Brita. This bagel is more like... Brooklyn's cousin who moved to Florida in 2004 and started wearing flip-flops to dinner. The texture? Too soft. No chew. No crust. More like a roll with everything seasoning and an identity crisis. I wanted that slight resistance, that bagel bite, but instead, it folded like a beach chair. Look, it's not a bad stop if you're local and your standards have been slowly eroded by palm trees and Publix. It IS one of the better ones as far as Florida bagels go. But if you're from the Northeast and someone tells you this is just like home? Walk away. They can't be trusted. read more

I have been to the goldenrod location many times and love it. Not really sure what happened with the Lake Nona location. It just wasn't the same! I went in 2 days in a row to give them a fair shot since my first day experience wasn't great. The location is good, the inside is pretty basic but it works for a bagel shop. Now here is the real reason for 2 stars ...the bagels! I ordered the Brooklyn on an everything bagel. Honestly the bagel was cold and kinda stale/hard in texture, and not a tasted hard, like it was frozen and recently thawed and cooked quickly. The insides egg, meat and cheese were hot and fresh but the bagel just ruined it. I asked a manager(guy standing around watching the team in training)! If the bagel should be warm and they took it and went to the back. He came back out with a new bagel sandwich, it was slightly warmer but still hard in texture. I figured they are new and let's just chalk it up to that. Things happen. The next day I figured let's try again....same thing...bagel was slightly warm but still hard in texture. Staff was good, coffee was good, but bagels just not on par. If they make bagels in house, they should be soft and fluffy. Not so much. I'll give them a few weeks and try again. Maybe things will change... or I'll just continue going to goldenrod location. read more

Lord have mercy‍Recently visited this place right after our kiddo's soccer match to grab some breakfast and wow were we blown away by their menu. This place was packed to the brim when we arrived, and that is *almost* always a telltale sign that the food delivers as expected. Ambiance is busy so be prepared to *maybe* not find available seating for in-store dining. We're so obsessed with their coffee selection which truly hit the spot paired with their bagels. * We ordered: Pastrami, egg and cheese w. hash brown Jersey Boy Chicken, egg, cheese Iced coffee Cubsta (you can customize it to your liking and we are here for it read more

The goldenrod store, hands down, beats this store. And note for the staff - because you are wearing gloves doesn't mean you can touch everything and not swap gloves. I watched the bagel before mine be topped off with salmon and the same wet gloves make my bagel. Like others the layout and ambiance is not the greatest I'll drive to goldenrod for the time being. Update: bagel is terrible. One of the worst I have had. read more

I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed. Was excited for a quality bagel shop in the area to open. After our first visit, I don't think we will be back. The concept is great and it has a good coffee bar. But, the bagels themselves are lacking and like so many terrible quick service breakfast joints, the toaster must move at lightning speed because all bagels come out untoasted and lukewarm. The butter on my bagel couldn't even melt fully. Very disappointing; hope they improve or they may not be around for long. read more

Ordered an everything bagel double toasted with strawberry cream cheese. Not gonna lie, a little let down. The amount of creams cheese was under whelming, the bagel was hard and chewy when I expected a bit crunchy from the double toasted. You would not be able to tell the flavor of the cream cheese. Tasted no strawberry any where. read more

I've eaten at many Brooklyn Water Bagels, and I'm super happy to have one in Lake Nona, especially since there really aren't any quality bagel shops in the area. Although, I wouldn't consider Brooklyn Water Bagel to have the "best" bagels ever, but compared to what we have currently, it'll do. My family has been there 3 times so far. On our first visit we asked one of the employees when did this location open up and they mentioned, at the time, they were open a week. We had no major complaints about the food, it seems they have worked out some of the kinks with some added room to grow. They do LATHER up the bagels with a lot of cream cheese or butter. You may want to ask for that on the side! The sandwiches are fairly big, you may detach a jaw. The coffee is fine, you'll have to spend some time fine tuning it at the coffee bar. The employees are friendly and the service is pretty quick for how busy they are. My major gripe is the location. It's a smaller Brooklyn Water Bagel, so the layout is weird. The ordering line wraps around the tables where you can tell people are not comfortable eating because it's a little too close for comfort. Then, the people waiting for their "to go" orders crowd around the coffee bar and block a lot of the access. You spend a good amount of time dancing around people in order to assemble your drink. It's just very tight and a little frustrating. The seating outside is a little more breathable, BUT wear some sunscreen, cause you'll be roasting with the umbrella-less tables and hope that a dumb-dumb parking their car doesn't ram into you while you're enjoying your bagels and loxs because there's no protection. It's a possibility that they may make some upgrades as time goes on, but in its current state, it just doesn't flow well. Good luck to this location, I hope it succeeds and improves! Edit - they added umbrellas outside! read more

It was ok, but it was really sloppy. My sandwich fell apart and was so messy that it was a struggle and no longer enjoyable. The hash browns were gross though. They were soggy and tasted freezer burnt and had burnt black flakes all over them. The sandwich was just assembled really weird. The egg was so thick it overwhelmed the whole thing. They also slopped like half a container of cream cheese onto one sandwich. It was cold and must've been assembled that way because the cheese wasn't melted one bit. This was a to go order and I got coffee with cream and sugar, but it was dark and bitter so somebody is just making it to their own tastes. The muffin I got was really good though. I don't think I would go back. read more

Driving by and saw this breakfast spot being from Ny I thought maybe this would be good. The place had a decent decor some NY references and ample seating. I ordered a baconeggncheese on a plain bagel. It didn't take too long to get my order. I get my bagel and was instantly disappointed. I saw those McDonald's folded type eggs (you see in multiple pictures on here) which I already knew it was going to be a letdown. In a NY deli they actually crack the eggs in front of you etc.. The bagel with the so called "Brooklyn water" was not up to par. The bagel was just hard on the outside and barely soft on the inside. Maybe I'll give it another try but it wasn't the first impression I thought it would be. read more

Amazing bagels but costly like everything else in the world. Service is fast and employees seem happy.

My wife and I stopped in for lunch. It was our first visit to Brooklyn Water Bagel. We were greeted by a friendly, smiling face and we ordered a ham & cheese on bagel, with the $10 deal (drink and chips) along with a Taylor Pork roll on rye. The food was fresh, hot off the grill and very good! We also spoke with the manager, also a very nice & friendly guy. We were completely happy with the whole experience and will definitely be back soon! read more

I just came from the restaurant, it was very clean and the service was excellent. I ordered the Jersey Boy on an onion bagel. It was toasted nicely and the flavor was good but my biggest complaint was there was barely any pork roll on it . The slices were super thin and there may be three little slices. You honestly don't even taste it. For a $9 sandwich , that's my only complaint . I could have paid another $3 for extra but that just seemed a bit absurd for a breakfast bagel. I will def go back and try other things , just leaving my honest review read more
