It's very colorful. It's also very clean and tidy. My order didn't take long. And my cashier was the one handing out the orders and he had a smile on his face. I got us whole wheat everything bagel with a fried egg, chipotle Gouda, and turkey sausage with chipotle mayo with a hash brown on the side. And when I opened the bagel open I could see the cheese from both ends of the bagel melting apart, I was in heaven. It tasted so good. And the best part was that my bagel didn't fall apart (like some places). Everything was so delicious. I was left very happy and very pleased with this place. I will be back.

I had a plain bagel with lox, onions, scallions, and tofu spread, which seems to be a cream cheese alternative. The bagel was perfectly toasted. I didn't even know a bagel could be perfectly toasted.

Very solid NY bagel spot. This is a no frills bagel place, with limited bagel flavors and schmears…read more It's intended for take and go; there's nowhere to sit and eat, and they don't cut or prepare them for you. I wish I knew these things before I went, because I ended up scrambling trying to find a separate cafe to sit and eat at since it was raining. Luckily there was a boba spot down the street. All that being said, the bagels themselves were excellent. I got an everything, sesame and plain, with a green onion schmear. I was hesitant about the schmear because I don't actually like onions, but was told it's the most popular so I took a chance and was not disappointed. If your priority is high quality NY bagels, this is the spot. If you're looking for bagel sandwiches with other toppings and a place to sit and eat, this is not it.

The extensive cream cheese options were so fun! It looked like a gelato counter at first glance, with how many choices there were. I went with the cinnamon walnut situation on a sesame "low gluten" bagel & it hit the spot. My French vanilla iced coffee was decent as well. All in all, it was the fuel I needed for my long day in Manhattan. I'd probably return if I was craving a bagel. Thanks for considering us gluten-free folks!

Great bagel sandwiches (sausage egg & cheese was my favorite!) and their iced coffees were amazing! They serve them in plastic/metal sealed containers so they tend to stay cold longer. I tried 3 different coffees in 3 days and they were all great! Service can be a little slow at times because it gets CROWDED in the mornings, but I won't knock them for that. Also there is only a tiny area to sit but it's NYC so that is typical.

For it being our first time, we were a little confused with the ordering process, and they were so busy that it took a while to be acknowledged. There were kiosks to place the order, but we couldn't find a place to request special requirements, so we had to figure out how we could order at the register amongst the slew of other customers. Our order for 2 bacon egg and cheeses were called with a biscoff iced latte and we were excited at first. But when we opened the sandwiches our bacon was just 3, maybe 4 fatty pieces when we specifically asked for crispy bacon. My husband settled for his, but I requested a reorder where they corrected the bacon issue, and even put more slices. Besides that snafu, I was excited for my latte, but was also underwhelmed by the taste. I assumed since it was a biscoff cookie latte (which I love) that it would be sweeter... The establishment was nice, and there were so many selections, so we would give it another try before writing it off completely.

I was absolutely blown away with the amount of fresh, hand-made cream cheese / butter / spread selections - some of the ones that were available when I came were: Brown Sugar Cinnamon Butter, Garlic Parsley Butter, Walnut Raisin Cream Cheese, Strawberry Cream Cheese, Cinnamon Roll Cream Cheese, Olive Cream Cheese, Nutella Chip Cream Cheese, Lemon Poppy Cream Cheese, Jalapeno Cheddar Cream Cheese, Garlic Herb Cream Cheese, Bacon Cheddar, Chili Crisp, Basil Pesto... I mean seriously the options are ENDLESS. Sweet, salty, savory, you name it. I will admit, it's a bit overwhelming because you want to try it all especially because they're all beautifully displayed. Even after you pick the spread, you still have to choose from one of the many different bagel options too so.. that's the hard part - making choices! There is seating available both in and outside. It's within a great walking distance and easily visible / accessible. Love, love, love!! I'm not from NYC, I was visiting so I will be missing this place whole heartedly - until next time!

They've also added photos of their different bagel sandwiches and helpful lists of the most popular ones. I guess they got asked that question a lot. I do wish that they had a better way of indicating that your order was ready like a screen that listed your number or the numbers of those who are ready vs still in progress.
