So, these are the best bagels in New Jersey…read more I'm not gonna drag down their reviews, but I have a serious problem. I went in to the establishment for elite bagels 15 minutes before they closed a couple of weeks ago. The guy behind the counter said I can give you half a dozen bagels for five dollars. I looked him square in the eye and said previously they would just stuff a bag full of bagels and say have a nice day. I wasn't looking for freebies, just what I ordered. He laughed like I was getting a deal. Taking advantage of people for pennies is shameful. I never go in there looking for anything free, sometimes they would just throw a few more in the bag.

If you're looking for a great bagel shop, this is the place! The bagels are fresh, delicious, and…read morethere's a huge variety to choose from. They also offer excellent breakfast platters, muffins, pastries, and plenty of other breakfast options. Be prepared--it gets very busy, especially during peak hours. If you can, call your order in ahead of time, although they sometimes have to stop taking phone orders when they're overwhelmed. Even so, it's absolutely worth the wait!

Teaneck Road Hot Bagels is a highly-rated, kosher bagel shop in Teaneck, New Jersey, famous for its…read morefresh, hot bagels with a crispy exterior and soft, chewy interior, earning it national recognition from publications like Food & Wine, NJ.com, and Fodor's Travel. Located on Teaneck Road, it has good exposure, and should do very well. All of this is what brought me there and it did not disappoint. Thank goodness that I called in my order, because when I opened their door, the place was packed with happy customers. The shop is not large, but they offer a lot more than just bagels. The plain and pumpernickel bagels were just as I mentioned and I can see why they received a high rating.

As a prediabetic, if I'm having carbs first thing in the morning, it better be worth it. And the…read morebagels here are absolutely worth it. This spot has all the energy, busyness, and no-frills attitude of a true New York bagel spot...with the benefit of a large, free parking lot. And thank goodness for that, because there was already a messy line in the foyer area on a Sunday morning. If that worries you, know that the guys behind the counter know how to work a crowd. Find a spot to stand and wait to catch the eye of one of these guys shouting, "Next! Who's next?!" It's a little hectic, but I feel it made me all the more excited to get to my car and chow down. As someone who was raised by city bagels, I'm usually poised to disdain any other bagel, but this place holds its own. During my short visit, I watched several fresh batches of steaming hot, fresh bagels being poured into the baskets...and then quickly depleting as the weekend crowds ordered them by the dozens. I got a toasted sesame bagel with cream cheese, and it was just perfect. Strong sesame seed coverage, with a light, crispy exterior and beautiful chew on the inside. AND - most importantly - the right amount of schmear. I've seen some reviews knock a star or two because this place doesn't offer breakfast sandwich options, but I imagine adding those to the menu would just slow service down immensely. If you're someone who's not hot on the cream cheese, there's also a variety of spreads, like tuna salad and lox. Some other random details: This looks like an old school joint in every way, but they accept both cash and credit card. There's no seating inside, so plan to either eat in your car or rush home. If you're planning on placing a larger order, they accept advance orders over the phone.

From a slightly dense, chewy tasty and crusty outside to a puffy, white bready, little taste and no crust. Sad, but that seems to be the way of the world. The dough needs to rise and shaped then chilled, overnight is best, then they need to be boiled with some baking soda, or other food grade alkali, to produce a Maillard reaction in the crust. All this takes time and money. To be fair, the staff is friendly, the store is clean and they do have good chicken salad and bagels are generally fresh. No overnighters that I am aware of. So sad to see another one bite the bagel, um er, the dust.....

To boot, we were sleeping over a friend's place recently and brought a dozen bagels to have for breakfast the following day and everyone loved them, asking where they're from.

I unfortunately don't get down here nearly as often as I'd like, but I definitely help 'empty' their challah racks when I'm in the area! You grab a large brown paper bag, walk through the place and fill it with freshly made bagels and breads, and then pay what seems like some arbitrary low number they come up with while at checkout! When I was growing up, we'd go in here at 4-5 a.m. when returning from the city and purchase even 'fresher' bagels and breads if that's even imaginable! How you can still get this close to production and touch and take yourself is beyond me, but I don't care! I LOVE this place! Long live Rockland Bakery for never changing! FYI, Don't leave without ordering a few sweets from the bakery side! Again, you won't believe what you're paying for what you're getting!
