Shake Hands with Taylor Ham, Egg, and Cheese Bagel Sammich!!
Bill M.

Howard's makes some seriously delicious Big Fluffy Bagels with an excellent selection of Toppings, Meats, Spreads, and Fixings to choose from. This is one of those kinda places where I must've drove by hundreds of times before actually noticing it was here [thanks to Yelp]. But lemme tell you that now that I know it's here I'll be stopping by on a regular Bagel basis. And because this place is putting together some super tasty breakfast deliciousness, we're gonna get along just fine from here on out, Lol!! You had me at "Hand rolled Bagels baked fresh daily"!! Come And Get Your Munch On!!

Large, Plump, Chewy and Delicious Bagels! They offer a variety of bagels to choose from maybe 12+. I have had the Everything, Sesame Seed, Poppy and Cinnamon Raisin. The bagels are $.95. I've been going here since they opened a few years ago and the consistency of the product is outstanding. The store is very clean and the salads and spreads behind the glass cabinets look fresh and inviting, a must in my opinion. I also like the fact that they open at 5:30 am. I am an early riser and sometimes I need to get to work real early. They also have a well supplied self serve coffee station. No complaints about the coffee. They have a small but nice seating area near the front window which happens to catch the morning sun. It's a nice and uplifting way to start your morning.The building is part of a very structurally pleasing strip mall with a huge private parking lot. My complaint and thus why no 5 stars, there is no separate line for those that wish to buy only bagels and those who want breakfast sandwiches, salads, Boars Head products pastries and cookies, etc. I think it creates confusion and unnecessary waiting lines.

Discovered this place driving to Boonton. Glad I did. The bagels are always fresh and made all day long. I used to get a bagel with butter but graduated to a Taylor ham egg and cheese on a sesame bagel. I've had the omelet with home fries and toast but it's so much (4 eggs). I e had a sandwich which was also very good. Their coffee is fresh and doesn't give me heartburn after. They have homemade danishes and their homemade crumb cake is the bomb. I've had the regular, the raspberry, the chocolate and apple caramel crumb cake. They are hidden in a mini mall with a bank, hair salon liquor store and Italian restaurant. It is family run and they are very friendly. They are very easy to miss. Keep an eye out for them and stop if you're in the area. They will not disappoint. I highly recommend. I'm a regular here.

I was in the area meeting with some vendors for my wedding and wanted to pick up bagels to bring back to New Orleans with me. I decided to stop by Howard's given the great reviews and was not disappointed! I ordered an egg bagel with egg whites and cheese. The bagel was big, doughy and delicious! The eggs were cooked well and not watery. Most importantly, my cheese was melted-one of my biggest pet peeves is when the cheese on my egg sandwiches isn't melted (first world problems), but this was perfect. In addition to my sandwich, I ordered three dozen bagels to bring back for my fiancé's staff, and they were a hit! My fiancé actually ate two of them (not going to lie, I snuck one out of the bag later on and ate another one too). The service was also quick and friendly! I'll definitely be back if I'm in the area again

I waited until the last minute to buy my son and MIL's birthday cakes. I called Bloom Cakes and…read moreBakery and the gentleman was so patient and explained all of the options. We stopped by a few minutes later and the bakery is beautiful. The owner took the time to explain the cakes and showed us photos of the insides. We ordered a Napoleon and Strawberry Cake (with farmer's cheese) for next day pick up. Both were big hits at the party and everyone is looking forward to the next event so we have a reason to order another cake! Highlights: - Next day pick up for cakes - Aesthetically pleasing and delicious - Very helpful staff - Priced right ($50-$75/cake - enough for at 10 people, easily)

We stopped by Bloom Bakery in Caldwell and absolutely loved it. We bought a nut cookie with caramel…read morefilling (very nostalgic and so delicious), a pistachio éclair, and a lemon meringue tart to take with us. Everything was great, but the tart was my favorite , perfectly balanced and not overly sweet. While we were ordering our sweets to go, I also got a Turkish coffee to enjoy inside. It was first served in a small paper cup, probably a simple misunderstanding, and I sounded a bit disappointed. The owner immediately made a fresh one and brought it in a proper cup. It was excellent, rich, strong, and full of flavor. Great pastries, great coffee, and truly caring service. Highly recommend this place!

Best ever !! My go to!!…read moreU guys are killing it ! My cousin sent me there once and I've been hooked ever since this little place is just a joy to go to the employees are amazing. Really cool love them. I go there every Saturday spring pastries to my neighborhood. My client I would love it there. You will not be disappointed. Go there one time you two will be hooked hi-five. magpie.!!!

I had high hopes for this local British-inspired bakery, but maybe a little too high. And the…read moreprices are high - at least in dollars and not pounds! And I caught a good deal this week, so keep an eye out for that. So when you look at the menu online, be warned: the pastries may be smaller than you think. The handhelds have volume, but it's all fluff - like 2 oz for $4.25 (as of when I'm writing this). The 6" pies are much smaller than I thought from "feeds 3-4" - no, these are individual meals at best. But I should have measured out 6" and gotten a sense of that. The steak & ale fall seasonal pastry I got had very little meat, more onion and mushroom inside than anything. But really, most of all - bread. The spinach and leek pastries didn't even have much vegetable - at least the leek had some parmesan cheeseiness to it. To be fair, these are all fresh-made pastries, and this is first and foremost a bakery, so I was a little overly harsh on first assessment. One of the pros here: They gave me a second scone by accident when I left. Nice and fresh, lemony, authentic texture, tastes great. The one they had boxed for me feels kinda tough, but it tastes just as good as the first, so IOU for misjudging that one. Long story short, I feel bad. Most people seem to like it, it's local, the workers are really nice inside, they just expanded the interior I was told... but with all that, not really my vibe. And I do appreciate that you commented on my post to reach back out. The positive vibe there isn't unnoticed.
