But no separate line for bagels; so it wasn't efficient. I waited in line for about 15 mins, at one point I was waiting outside on a cold day. I asked for 2 plain and 1 raisin. The guy gave me an extra plain so it was a total of 4. I also ordered a 16 oz. Coffee (their house brew) it came out to $6.25. Not bad. Ifor some reason 2 bagels had grill marks on them, I'm assuming they were placed on a rack while still hot and it left marks on it. Strange. It wasn't about the bagels for me but the coffee was really good! Rivals the well known commercial coffee houses. The bagels were on the sweet side; they were big and crusty but the sweetness turned me off. After trying out Bagel Nosh, I would only return for the coffee not the bagels. The long line is not worth it; but maybe the sandwiches are good? Maybe I'll come back and try something else. But as far as bagels, I'd go somewhere else. This is my honest review.

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'd come here just for the drinks. We live almost an hour from here and the food was still tasty/fresh by the time my husband got home. The pandebono was on my list to try and it did not disappoint; a fun twist to a classic BEC. The sandwich of the month was also very good; it's a BLT, with cucumbers, plain cream cheese on your choice bagel. My husband said his wrap was good. We're not the biggest fan of the bagels. They tasted good but we found them a little tough. We prefer chewier bagels but the French toast cream cheese was tasty. The bagels were slightly smaller than others we've had, but were still a decent size. All the food and drinks (excluding the loose bagels my husband ordered) came to about $55 after tax and tip which is a great deal. I wish we lived closer because I'd love to try more of the menu!

There's space to wait for your order too- so if it's cold or raining, there's room for you. They're open 7a-7p which is great. It was busy when I ran in today around 12:45p on a Sunday and that's always a good sign. It looks clean and the drinks I saw looked appetizing. The food menu sounds fantastic. The guy who helped me with my order was super nice. But I actually went in there on the hunt for something specific. It's the 2nd time I went in since they moved to the space across the street from where they were. The first time I stopped in quickly and saw they had what I was looking for but very few so I didn't buy anything. l had done a very difficult and time intensive Google search for Macaron Cafe macarons. They wholesale out of NYC and they're the best macarons ever. There are probably 6-7 places in Ridgewood that sell macarons, some that make them fresh baked. And none are as good as the ones from Macaron Cafe. Pre-covid I could find them locally pretty easily. But now, it's really hard. Most of the places that sell them put up a menu of the flavors that's very easily identifiable, and they carry the full line. By googling a photo of the menu I was able to find them in Fort Lee and American Dream and those are both too far. I'd gone into every single place that sells macarons in downtown Ridgewood except RCC and none of them have them. I finally made it into Ridgewood when RCC is open (we usually end up in Ridgewood after dinner and they're closed) and imagine my joy in seeing the macarons there. I can tell it's them instantly. Except - they only have like eight of the flavors! They don't advertise them. They don't have the menu up either, so they only way I could tell there might be a chance of them being there was an old photo of their counter from Yelp or Google. So, I didn't have any drinks or food. I just bought some macarons. And I would've bought more except that they didn't really have the flavors I wanted. There are generally around 28-32 flavors and they change/add/take away every few months/holidays, etc. My knocking a star is ONLY for the lack of flavors of these amazing macarons and only having a tease amount of flavors of them. And they should advertise their baked goods/desserts better, like in photos on instagram. They don't post enough of all their food. I had to just take a chance and come in from an old photo. I know I don't want to have to drive to American Dream mall for these macarons. And I know the girls behind me in line today were talking about how they came in for tiramisu.

The matcha einspanner caught my eye, but unfortunately the flavors fell short for me. The barista making my drink appeared to be newer (another barista ended up taking over to finish the drink), and the drink itself tasted overly milky with not enough matcha flavor. Maybe it was the whipped cream, but it felt diluted overall. On the other hand, my husband's New Orleans iced coffee was good, and my friends enjoyed their other coffee drinks as well. Next time, I'll skip the matcha and just stick with coffee.

The owners and staff are so nice and efficient. I called with a rush catering order one Saturday morning and rather than tell me I was insane like they probably should have, they very kindly and quickly fulfilled the order. Everyone at the party was asking us where the bagels were from. They are exactly what you want from a bagel, with a thick crust on the outside and fluffy on the inside. We often catch them after a fresh batch has come out of the oven. I hadn't originally noticed that they offered special bagels until I read about their shop in Ho-Ho-Kus magazine. Ever since, the Burrata Cheese bagel has been my go-to, but they also make a great egg sandwich. My kids love the apple juice bottles with characters on top and on warmer days, they have a little table and bench outside to sit at, which is nice for chatting with the neighbors you inevitably run into. Everyone loves chatting with everything bagel seeds stuck in their teeth, right? Lol. They have brought them in for the winter so there is a little seating indoors. We are so happy to have this addition to our neighborhood - definitely worth a visit!
