Came here for the first time for breakfast, but ended up getting lunch instead. We ended up getting a chicken cutlet grinder with bacon and chipotle mayo sauce with a side a Mac salad and pickles. The sandwich was very good and chicken was crispy. I also got a maple cream iced coffee. It was a different set up than I'm normally used to because the coffee was already in the cups that you could choose from in the fridge. There were about 10 different flavors to choose from. I was then given ice and could make my coffee at the counter. I wouldn't come here for the coffee though I brought home a French toast bagel with cannoli cream cheese. It was very good, not too sweet. The bagel itself was crispy and with crunchy cinnamon sugar on the outside and dusted with powdered sugar. read more

Made it! Finally! I had a doctors appointment a few doors down during the week day early in the morning and I knew I was y going to have time to make breakfast after my appointment so I figured this was the best time to make a Visit to Kettle Bagels. It's a cute shop. It has tables indoors and outdoors. Nice selection of bagels too! Staff was very pleasant. She was great! For my sandwich.. I was excited to try a GF breakfast sandwich. I must say , I wasn't disappointed. I'll be back! For those who are Gluten Free, there are option. Quite a few! GF wraps, GF rolls or GF bagels. Wow! Never had so many options to choose from for a breakfast sandwich haha. Decisions decisions! They also had baked goods. And maybe a couple GF packaged ones. read more

Absolutely the best place to get breakfast in the area. Perfect ratios on everything I've tried. I highly recommend adding a flavored cream cheese to your sandwich or wrap, it's worth every penny. read more

COVID-19 era: Kettle might not be the closest bagel or brunch spot to the 84/10 exchange, but what a gorgeous bagel selection. It's worth those extra traffic lights. That, and our little one love those rainbow bagels, which I haven't seen anywhere else around Hartford. I understand the reason for that long line! Our wait was shorter than I thought, but Kettle is on Grubhub and maybe more dinner services, so order ahead if you'd prefer to skip the line. Beside other deli sandwiches, the staple lox sandwich is here. Cheddar jalapeño, maple bacon, and Sriracha are among Kettle's large(r) spread selection, and blueberry spread some actual, decent blueberries. The coffee selection's good (S-M-L), and if non-dairy's your preference, there's a fridge full of dairy options plus flavored creamer and almond milk. A huge parking lot is behind the building, though we we able to park on the side fine. If you're having carbs before a morning hike-- the nearby New England Trail or another scenic spots--or just enjoying some comfort food breakfast, this is an excellent place to energize the day. read more

I had a bagel craving and decided to check out this spot Sat morning. We got an egg bagel with delicious cucumber dill cream cheese, a blueberry bagel with plain cream cheese and a plain bagel with butter. The flavored cream cheese was particularly delicious and I also was allowed to try a small sample of the Cheddar jalapeno cream cheese which I really enjoyed and would definitely try next time! The blueberry bagel had a light flavor and was not overly sweet. Grabbed some juice, protein, shake and coffee as beverages and the total was just over 20 bucks which was fantastic. We ended up just eating there. They were busy but service was polite and attentive at the counter. It's a casual place in a strip mall type setup but it was clean and nicely decorated with plenty of seating. read more

We ordered on ubereats and they forgot one of the bagel sandwiches we ordered and the other two bagels were dry

Delivery order from Rocky hill of a dozen bagels and was pleasantly surprised by the quality. Best bagels around this part of Connecticut because: they are fresh! Tons of poppy seeds and sesame seeds on each one. They are not New York bagels but still better than anything local. The flavored cream cheeses are delicious. read more

"Please avoid eating at this location. The kitchen staff does not wear gloves, and some wear jewelry and rings while preparing food. Food safety standards here are extremely poor. For example, whenever you order something with bacon, they touch it with their bare hands to taste it. It's very concerning." read more

Amazing cream cheese The bagels are huge and affordable. I highly recommend trying it read more

This is a great spot! I love their choices for bagels and cream cheese. Their coffee is also great. This is my second time popping in here for breakfast on the go. It's a cute spot that does have some seating inside. The staff are friendly and helpful and it's reasonably priced. read more

Love love love Kettle bagels! The best sandwiches for breakfast and lunch. So many amazing choices its always so hard to decide what to get here. The variety of bagels, wraps, hard rolls, grinder and panini options are incredible. They offer catering options as well as grubhub, ubereats and doordash. The food is filled with goodness and packed with meat and veggies. I ate half my sandwich and was full. Not only was everything fresh, it also had so much flavor. I got the 3 eggs with bacon, cheese and hashbrowns called the Bobo sandwich. I love how they have their own special creations. I really can't wait to go back to try the French toast bagel with butter and Maple syrup. They also have a sushi bagel, rainbow bagel and 20 different flavor cream cheese options! They even have salad choices and assorted home baked goods depending on how your feeling. There really is something for everyone here! The options are endless! read more

I'm so happy I found this bagel place! The staff is always so friendly, both times I've gone (it's always in the afternoon so roughly an hour before close), the girl at the counter would throw in extra bagels for me. The first time, she let me take home a french toast bagel because I said I wanted to try it next time, and today she threw in a few extra blueberries and sesame bagels when I ordered 4 to go. Quality is excellent, I got a bacon egg & cheese on sesame today and also added a chipotle cream cheese schmear - STRAIGHT FIRE. The egg was cooked so well, all of the flavors came together flawlessly, my mouth is watering thinking back to this sandwich. Try them out! Support local businesses and enjoy a delicious bagel while you're at it. read more

Asked Siri to guide me to Kettle Bagels and I am not sure why she directed me to this one since it is further away from me than the other location... that being said... so glad we came here!!! As you can see from my pictures there is a huge selection for bagels and cream cheese. They also serve coffee and have a lunch menu. I got a cheddar bagel with cream cheese and bacon and it was excellent. They do put a lot of cream cheese on there but I love cream cheese... sooooo :o) there was also plenty of bacon and it was cooked just right. My son chose the rainbow bagel and insisted he eat some before we left, there is seating available inside. And my boyfriend chose the French toast bagel with butter and maple syrup, wow! We were thoroughly impressed. These bagels are so tasty! Took home 6 bagels, 1lb of plain cream cheese, and 1/4 lb of jalapeño cheddar cream cheese. With two coffees and a bottled apple juice everything came to just under $30. The staff behind the counter was super friendly and used a couple of the patron's first names so they have regulars. See you again, Kettle Bagels! read more

I had a similar experience at Kettle bagel in Plainville. I ordered 2 bagel sandwiches neither was made as ordered and had zero flavor cheap ingredients and when I complained I got a very insincere sorry and got less than that from the woman who was the "Manager". read more

So they participate in several ordering platforms, doordash, grubhub, postmates, and their own platform, hungerrush. Great. Now they need to be able to give accurate times. My order today was given a 10 minute pickup time. I arrived at 20 minutes and my order was not ready for another 7. If the order mechanism said 45 minutes or 1 hour that would be fine as long as it is ready near the time stated. Food is still great but seems like by participating in all the delivery/ ordering platforms, they are opening up an issue that wouldn't exist if they picked only a couple . read more

The bagels are superb! Traditional NY style bagels, and anything you can imagine to go with them. I really like this place! read more

This review is only about the bagels because that is all I had. They were not good at all. They were very dry and tasted stale. We had plain and poppy seeds. Unfortunately, I do not recommend it. read more

I'm not sure what the hype is about. My husband bought bagels here for Mother's Day along with the cream cheese and lox blend. The bagels tasted dry and stale plus the cream cheese/lox had little lox and was bland. I definitely won't be getting anything from them in the future. read more

Ordered a SEC on an everything bagel. The toppings on the bagel were bitter , the bagel was cut in half and it all slid all over the place as you try to eat it. Not much flavor overall. Polite efficient staff and the place looked clean. One and done for me. read more

Was pleasantly surprised checking out this place for the first time before a meeting. I never been to this place before and was sad I've been missing out on this place for years. Stopping in for Breakfast, the place was a little packed with generations of people, some regulars with their bagels and coffee while others a little more business and busy looking chomp down on a bagel before heading to a meeting like me. I decided to order a chorizo, egg and cheese sandwich on a toasted spinach bagel. I'm glad that they had a couple other options for meats on top of the typical bacon or sausage. The sandwich was toasted well, warm and smoking with a hint of heat from the chorizo. Sliced in half it was easy to enjoy the sandwich though it was a little greasy but expected with the chorizo. The location is a little bigger than other Bagel shops I've been to but the Kettle Bagels needs it as all the tables were full when I arrived. The line wasn't that bad as they were able to take orders quickly and start the orders quickly. I originally wanted to sit down and enjoy my sandwich and chocolate milk but all the tables were full. I did ask to have my sandwich here but with the tables full I took it to go. I did appreciate the man taking my order willing to ask a finished party to leave so I can enjoy my sandwich but that was all right. The menu is large with breakfast, snack and lunch time items that you can order at all times. I saw a man order a rib eye sandwich around 9:00am on a roll. It looked packed with meat and would fill me up no problem. You'll find your typical bagels here along with some others. I've seen another local favorite bagel shop of mine have a large selection of spreads but you'll find your favorites and enjoy them nevertheless. I'll be back when I'm in the area for another sandwich and maybe I'll stop in for lunch and be blown away at what I will get when I order. read more

They carry both rye and pumpernickel bagels which are my favorite. I had a toasted rye with vegetable cream cheese and loved the flavor and crunchy outside. One of the best bagels I've had. read more

Yaaas! Best Bagels I have found in the state thus far! Run like a bagel shop should be, no drama, incredibly fresh, perfectly cooked. As a gentlemen named Joshua said who reviewed Kettle earlier the consistency of these bagels is spot on! Exterior has a great firmness, nice, soft and chewy inside. I had a bagel with Nova Lox and it was super yummy, nice strong coffee and the staff are just wonderful!! Wishing them a long prosperous success in the area!! I know I will help in that regard!! read more

Second time trying this place and the service is a bit of a train wreck. I was in line and guy says can I help you. So I walk up to the counter when the other girl working says I don't need your help so I don't get to order cause he just walks away. Thanks for that nice awkward moment. I finally get to give my order and the girl working g the register seems overwhelmed and tells me she's not ready after she already asked me what I wanted. We get our bagels and they are wrong.... I'll stick with the shop down the road , even when they are slammed service is on read more

Friendly, fast service, GREAT food. Bagels are really fresh. Never had a disappointment here.

Awesome bagels with a good variety of cream cheese flavors. The french toast bagel with cannoli cream cheese rocks! ( yes a bit on the sweet side and a bit sticky - but YUM! ). Lots of choices, the lox cream cheese is packed with smoked salmon bits, nice flavor. Many coffee options and a cooler filled with drinks. Seating area to eat there or to go. More than just breakfast, deli wraps and sandwiches for lunch. Stevice has been friendly and helpful. read more

All of their bagels have a weirdly large hole so all of the innards squirt everywhere, plus you're getting less bagel. Zero vegan options, or if there are, they're not marked anywhere. Won't be back, even though I work 1/2 mile from them. read more

What a disaster. Husband I went Sunday for late breakfast. Ordered an everything bagel with egg, sausage, and cheddar. Bagel WAS SWEET. What? Never have I ever. It went back for a redo. Redo came out exactly the same: sweet, over-toasted, and dry as the Sahara. Meanwhile, 3 customers came back into the hole-in-a-wall shop to complain about incorrect orders, after getting to their vehicles and determining the order was wrong. Never, ever, ever, ever getting back together with this dump. read more

one of our favorite bagel places! love their unique speciality bagel flavors, especially the egg everything and their flagels, which are less bready bagels. They're generous on the fillings and always get a wonderful cheese pull. read more

stopped here bout a month ago to pick up bagels for my team. They were so yummy!! Happened to notice "Nova Lox" on the menu when I was there. Woke this morning with a craving for something different for breakfast. Stopped by to get the Nova Lox bagel. Can I just say...OMG!!! PERFECTION!!! Salmon, cream cheese, red onion, tomatoes & capers!! The capers put it over the top!!! I will definitely be back... (McDonald's who? ) And the "Jamaican Me Crazy" coffee blend is delightful!!! great way to start a Friday!!! read more

What a great place to grab a bagel! After seeing this place on Yelp, I decided to check out Kettle Bagels. The place itself is a very nice, modern storefront without the trappings of most modern places. This is the closest I've had to a real deal NY Bagel in Connecticut. The exterior has that firm resistance to it, and the inside remains soft and chewy like a baguette. A lot of bagel places have bagels that are the same consistency, like a bread donut. Kettle Bagels has really nailed their bagel making technique. I ordered a double egg, sausage, bacon and cheese on an everything bagel. They did not skimp on any of the aforementioned ingredients. I'm presently in a state of chrysalis as my body shuts down and I cocoon into a bagel induced hibernation. On top of bagels, specialty sandwiches, specialty cream cheeses and other treats, they have a huge selection of coffees and beverages to accompany your food. Definitely check out Kettle Bagels if you're anywhere in the area and have a little slice of NY in CT. read more

I wouldn't call myself a regular, but when I do visit, which I would say is at least once or twice a month, I've always received great service. I could be wrong, but I believe her name is Michelle, she's always so friendly and has conversation with myself and my fiancé when we come in. There's been a few times when I've come and they have been out of the snickerdoodle iced coffee, which I delicious, by the way - but, it happens and it's almost always later in the day. There is always a wide variety of cream cheese to choose from and the bagels are crisp and flavorful. Kettle Bagels offers a bagel that wouldn't find in any other shop around. Oh and the french toast bagel? It is to die for! That bagel with butter and maple syrup is phenomenal. read more

Woke up a little late yesterday and needed a quick bite so I decided to give Kettle Bagels a try. This place wasn't here the last time I was in Connecticut so I was pretty excited to see it so close to my parents house. The place looks really nice and clean inside and was fully stocked when we came in around 9:00AM. They have tons of beverage options, tons of different bagels, and a ton of breakfast sandwiches that look huge. I ended up getting a cheddar bagel to go and it was honestly the best cheddar bagel I've ever had. I can't wait to take a trip back here when I'm back in Connecticut and give one of those sandwiches a try! read more
