BEST BREAKFAST BAGEL SANDWICH EVER Been seeing this place all over online so had to stop by for breakfast. Went on a Monday so it was relatively slow and the service was quick! It's a literal hole in a wall but there is some seating so you can enjoy your meal. Ordered the classic lox on a sesame bagel and it was very good but the standout was definitely the bacon egg and cheese sandwich on an everything bagel with scallion cream cheese and chili oil (ask for the chili oil on the side cause it can get messy). I think it was one of the best bites I had in NY. I can't wait to go back again and show my fiancé this place! read more

Leon’s Bagels - Bacon Egg & Cheese Sandwich on an everything bagel with scallion cream cheese and chili oil - Bagels Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Probably the best bagel option in the area. Filling portion, soft and chewy, ooey gooey inside. They sometimes have a line but honestly not a bad wait and is worth it. They have a small section on the sidewalk to sit and enjoy your bagel too if you didn't want to walk with it! read more

My first time trying Leon's Bagels before store closing was a treat. I thought I would end up getting stale hard mediocre bagels but that was not the case. My egg bagel tasted fresh and was still spongey inside. I am so amazed at the product. I would definitely come back to try their bagel sandwich! Staff was friendly and helpful, even during closing. It's a small shop and you can order at the window. Located near the L and B62. Accepts cash, card and Applepay. Takeout. No bathroom. Bon appetit! read more

I ordered ahead so maybe that was my mistake but easily one of the worst bagels I've had in NYC this year. I got it scooped so can't comment on the actual bagel too well but the cheese was ridiculous, wayyy too much, and some pictures so it nice and warm but clearly not mine... the bacon was good, other than that I have no good notes. read more

Leon’s Bagels - Bacon Egg & Cheese Sandwich with tomato - Bagels Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Leon's Bagel is known to be "nothing fancy," so the menu isn't overwhelming. Plus, there's only 3 signature bagel sandwiches, which are great options. The shop is a walk-up window but there is some seating on the sidewalk. I ordered one Sausage Egg Cheese ($10) and one Classic Lox ($16) --both on an everything bagel, of course. I really enjoyed both bagels and everything was well balanced. I could always use more cream cheese, but this is good for a normal person. Also liked how melty the cheese and fluffy the eggs were. They serve the classics here, which are tasty and filling. read more

Super cute little walk-up window for bagels! Made it a point to come here to buy bagels to take back home to Los Angeles. I got some plain and egg bagels for my trip back but also ordered a toasted everything egg bagel ($2.00) with scallion cream cheese ($4.50) to eat on the spot. The bagel was the perfect texture and the amount of cream cheese was spot on. The scallions were fragrant and I would not change a thing about the entire thing. Would definitely come back! read more

This was really tasty and we'll be back. The egg sandwich was PHENOMENAL. Not TOO much cream cheese which some places go too crazy. Perfect balance of fresh eggs, cream cheese and the soft and fresh bagel. The lox bagel was solid too and tasted like all ingredients were very fresh. Service was a bit slow bc only 2 people handling a massive line but they wer kind. Lots of space outside to sit and can always hit the nearby park. Although a bit pricey, the quality and flavor is a 5/5. read more

Leon's has a quality bagel although I would not say it's the best in nyc. I appreciate that they have sandwich options but I'd opt for a different place for a much more affordable price read more

Bagel texture: great - fluffy Portion size: amazing - huge Taste: 0 because there is no taste. It was a tasteless breakfast bagel ): I couldn't taste the everything bagel seasoning, and the sausage had no flavor other than the sage. The bacon one was at least a bit saltier. The eggs were cheesy which I liked, but also made the sandwich greasy. They give you the option to add hot sauce -- should've done that ): Service was friendly and efficient. They also only operate as a take out window. We took our bagels to the park nearby which was nice. Overall, it's not BAD; it's just not GOOD. read more

4.5 stars! This might be my favorite all around bagel shop in Williamsburg. Most bagel shops here either do one or the other (cream cheese v. Bacon egg n cheese). You'll be hard pressed to find a place that does both and does it at a reasonable price. I got an egg everything bagel with scallion cream cheese, tomato, cucumber, onion and capers. Goated combination btw. Also, can we appreciate that they offer egg everything? Didn't realize I was missing that in my life. I love egg and I love everything so it only makes sense read more

This is a cute pick up bagel spot! You can either go plain to crazy and make it a meal! There's a lot of add on and options to add to your bagel! They say nyc bagels are elite and so I would check it out! The service is great and I enjoyed stopping by. Def a cute photo spot! read more

Very cute grab and go spot for bagels. I ordered the BEC on a scooped everything bagel with light cheese. It was yum but definitely a bit heavy (although duh it's a BEC lol). Good price too! read more

The hype is definitely real! My go to is a BEC on an asiago bagel (toasted) with scallion cream cheese, and chili oil! Literally so good!

My favorite bagel place in NYC. The bagels are toasted and have the nice chewy texture and taste. I usually order a plain bagel with lox spread with a latte. read more

Very cute and aesthetic bagel kiosk with limited outdoor seating. The two guys working there on a Sunday we went they were not very nice and kept talking amongst themselves and didn't even bother to offer any sort of help. We ordered the egg everything bagel with garlic spread and tbh the bagel was okay there's better texture bagels in Manhattan in my opinion. This did enough for the craving but it wasn't the best I've ever had read more

I really wanted to like this bagel sandwich, but I did not. I know their phrase is "nothing fancy", but it really wasn't anything special either. I got the classic lox bagel sandwich and it tasted like something I could make at home.. I also got an iced vanilla latte and that was fairly good. Overall, this place was mid and I would go somewhere else for a bagel sandwich. read more

Tried Leon's Bagels after hearing all the hype. I ordered a plain bagel with egg and jalapeño cream cheese. The flavor was bold and unique, but honestly, a bit overwhelming. Might've been better with a simpler combo or maybe a different one overall. I waited about 20 minutes for my order, which felt long for a bagel spot, it was just okay. Not bad, but not sure it lived up to the buzz. BTW, their branding is 10/10. read more

One of the best egg sandos I've ever had. One woman working counter (assuming a couple folks in the kitchen behind) who was incredibly friendly, taking orders of those in long line, packing orders for the delivery guys, and making espresso drinks. I have no solid proof, but think she might be part octopus as there is no physical way she could do everything all at once so seamlessly. If owner is reading this, this woman is a star and needs a big raise. read more

It's a good bagel, but not worth $7. I had an egg everything bagel with veggie cream cheese. The bagel was the right balance of crispy and fluffy, with a nice garlic note. I found the cream cheese to be a bit looser than other places, but not egregiously so. The prices are impossible to justify. read more

Came here on a Saturday morning, and there were about ten people in line but it moved quickly! The storefront is so cute and I liked how they decorated it for fall. I ordered the classic Lox bagel which came out to $17 with some change. I think I waited 5-10 minutes for the bagel to be prepared, and then I walked a couple blocks north to sit at a bench in the park and eat it since there's not really a place to sit in front of Leon's Bagels. Looooved my bagel! I got a plain which was nicely toasted and paired well with the filling. Good amount of capers and salmon and cream cheese. read more

Great service long line but goes quick. Quality food and well prepared. Fresh ingredients but a bit overrated. I'd go back but didn't live up to the hype read more

Leon's did not have a huge line on this rainy day, so I lucked out! They noticed folks waiting for bagels and put up the patio umbrellas which was very kind. There's an outdoor parklet seating which was nice. I got an everything bagel with lox spread. It was huge and that schmear was THICC. I think it was a sourdough bagel because she had body for sure. It was so fresh and delicious. The lox spread had plenty of lox with the cream cheese. Big fan. A very nice treat yo self bagel moment. I like the green/white checkered logo/design for the branding too. read more

This is a cute hole in the wall bagel shop. The bagels are honestly pretty huge and very filling! I got the chicken sausage, egg and cheese sandwich and there were tonsss of eggs on it. Keep in mind they toast all sandwiches by default. They don't have their prices listed on the menu at the register, however you can take a look online ahead of time. There really isn't anywhere to sit outside of a few benches across from the shop. However there are a few different parks nearby that you could take your bagels and enjoy! I'm sure it depends on the time of day but from our experience there was never really a line of more than 4 people so it doesn't really take too long to get your food. The employees are cool and they honestly have pretty cute merchandise if you like that kind of stuff! read more

My friend bought me the egg bagel and it was so good we went back the next day, the bagel was still good but the line was long and so many people were waiting for their pickup orders it was a bit chaotic. The staff were doing their best but I personally would skip going there on the weekends and go on weekdays instead. Also I recommend stopping by the Carhartt store next door, it's opened 5 months ago. read more

A little less than 4 stars, but rounding up. Leon's bagels is a cute little hole in the wall that just opened up in the area. I went on a Saturday late afternoon and there was basically no line. I got the classic lox on a wheat everything bagel. The bagel was super fresh, along with the cucumber and tomatoes. I do wish there was just a bit more lox on there for the price of $15-17. There was also a LOT of raw onion, for better or for worse. Not much seating, only one bench across the sidewalk. read more

We had an everything bagel with lox and it was the best bagel I've had. The texture and flavors were on point. The service was efficient and fast. This business is run like a well oiled machine with excellent product. It's just a take out window with some seating on the street so seating is limited. If you're in Williamsburg you need to have a bagel or two here. read more

I decided I had to try Leon's Bagels when I saw a giant line one day. I returned on a Saturday and had to wait in line for about 10-15 minutes. The order was quick and I waited for my food for about 10 minutes. The bagel was delicous, I think this one is worth the hype. I would highly suggest it! read more

One of the best things that we had during a trip to New York. Cute little spot around the corner from my hotel. The bagel was literally the best I've had. I came back home craving a bagel and realized I live in a bagel desert. I'd have to drive to LA to get a somewhat decent bagel. If you have access to amazing bagels I'm not sure how Leon's matches up but definitely a must try! read more

Been here twice already and they have not disappointed. Food: bagels are fluffy, taste fresh. They load it with cream cheese (NY style...it's like ordering cream cheese with a side of bagel lol). And if you asked for butter, it's nicely and evenly spread...(that's important...every bite has butter). It's nice that they only have bagels and coffee there. Service: there is usually a line but they are pretty fast, from the time you order to when you get the order, it's max 10 min. This is not a sit down spot. I totally recommend it for bagels. read more

Nice cozy spot. Clean and modern. They were playing one of my favorite bands on the speaker (Prep) and I had to try! Very friendly staff. Fast service. I was lucky to avoid a line. I had a wheat sausage egg and cheese. Quite hearty and just what I needed for my hangover! Great texture, soft and crunchy in the right places. Quite generous with the egg portion. Packaging was clean and not too drippy-oily. read more

New popular place in the hood. I did not plan for this today, but since there was no line I just jumped in and ordered an Everything Bagel with Cream Cheese and a coffee. The bagel was very fresh and tasty with loads of cream cheese, but the coffee was meh. All for $10. Here's the question, is it worth $10? The answer is borderline no especially if you have to stay in line for this. read more

Leon’s Bagels - Everything bagel with cream cheese - Bagels Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

The staff did not look happy to be at work on a Saturday morning. There was one male employee who looked extremely unapproachable. First I was given the wrong order for both of my bagels. When I took it back, the employee told me that I was given a plain bagel because there were no egg bagels. In addition, I received an everything bagel with some kind of meat instead of the cream cheese that I ordered. Of course both bagels had to be remade, and suddenly there were egg bagels available. That was okay but I was given a cold everything bagel. When I let the employee know that my bagel was cold, she actually tried to tell me that it was lightly toasted, even though I requested well done toasted. She then took a freshly toasted bagel from another order that was being prepped to finally serve me a toasted everything bagel with cream cheese. read more

Guys... this is not a bagel this a roll not sure why everyone rates this place so highly. The fillings are good but this is a bagel place.

Terrible service. First time I went, there was no line. From the time I placed the order until I received it, it took 9 minutes just for a toasted bagel. When I got it, I realized I had been given the wrong order and had to ask them to exchange it. Just went back again today to give it another chance. The cashier was texting on his phone, and I said "hello" several times to try to get his attention despite standing right in front of him. After finally yelling at him, he looked up and his eyes were glazed over. I ended up just leaving. Not sure if they take a long time to build up a line to attract attention, but the food is nowhere good enough to justify the atrocious wait and service. I will never be coming back here. read more

I haven't left a review in years, but this place was so bad food-wise. 100% absolutely using thawed, leftover bagels that are soggy/wet on the outside, zero crispiness, and no fluffiness on the inside. Service was great, but not enough to make up for the food quality. Food: Went on a Tuesday morning and ordered an everything bagel with lox spread, scallion cream cheese, and onions. The sandwich comes out and is toasted, despite not asking for it toasted. No respectable bagel place is going to toast your bagel unless you ask for it, and nearly all of them ask if you want it toasted or not these days. I ask for a not-toasted bagel and they are kind enough to replace it, and the bagel is among the worst I've had in NY, comparable to the bagels a food cart serves in the morning. Soggy, wet on the outside (you can feel the dampness) and no crispiness or fluffiness. If you've ever left bagels in your fridge for a few days and taken them out, it was exactly that. Northern Williamsburg close to the park is lacking in a great quality bagel spot, but there are much, much better options nearby. They are toasting their bagels by default because they are using leftover and/or thawed bagels, and charging $15 for it anyway. Not worth it. Service: The lady taking orders was very kind, didn't hesitate to replace my bagel, and my replaced order came out lightning quick. Great service. read more

Delicious bagels and huge bagel sandwiches! One will keep you full all day! Friendly staff, too.

Leons has a cool vibe and draws you in with their green and white decor. You order the bagel off a menu with no pricing, so that bothered me. But then it turned out to have reasonable prices. A toasted poppyseed bagel with garlic and herb cream cheese was great. But ORDER a side of spicy honey to drizzle on top! It is out if this world! It is rhetorical best dollar you will spend! Trust me! read more
