Small little bagel shop that has delicious bagels! We hit up this place on our way to go hiking in…read moreNorvin Green State Forest. We got a breakfast sandwich on an everything bagel with Taylor ham, bacon and cheese and it was loaded with meat. Also got an everything bagel with bacon scallion cream cheese which was delicious. Prices here are also great and service was quick and friendly!

Update (3 months later):…read more Came back plenty of times since this review, and I gotta give credit where it's due. Whatever haunted batch of veggie cream cheese I met that day has clearly been exorcised. Everything since has been back to normal, fresh, delicious, and exactly why I kept coming here in the first place. Bagels still top tier: crispy outside, soft inside, dangerously easy to over-order. Staff still friendly, fast, and running the place like pros. And the plot twist nobody saw coming... they take credit cards now. Absolute character development. Growth. Place still looks super neat. So yes, the old review stands as one weird off day, but the comeback deserves recognition.

Great selection of fresh bagels every morning. They also make any sandwiches very quickly.read more

First time walking in and this place slapped me in the face with options. You know how most bagel…read moreshops give you the classics? Nope. Here it's like: "Oh you want a simple bagel? Cute. But have you considered 47 cream cheeses, 19 sandwiches, and a few items that made me stop and ask... wait, why is this here?" Not complaining though, it's actually impressive. There are choices that make perfect sense for a bagel shop, and then there are choices that feel like someone said, "Let's keep them guessing." Honestly? Respect. Variety for every type of mood and personality. If you're decisive, you'll walk out with something amazing. If you get overwhelmed easily... you might just stand there staring at the menu like it's a final exam. (Good problem to have.) Staff was super nice, friendly, and efficient. I was in and out ridiculously fast. No chaos, no attitude, just smooth operation. Place itself is small and clean, but comfortable and well kept.

The outside has the right crunch to the inside which is soft. I like Taylor Ham and egg with nothing on it. They know what a TH sandwich is supposed to be, thick sliced Taylor Ham. All the other bagel stores in the area are slicing the TH very thin, that's no good, and since TH and any combo of cheese and eggs is only a north Jersey thing for 50 years it's sliced thick. I recommend driving the extra 3.1 miles from Skyline Drive.

This is my go-to local bagel spot…read more They have an expansive menu that includes wonderful options for both breakfast and lunch. Their bagels are great and they always have tons of options. I also like that they have healthy options for smoothies and other protein packed dishes if you come right from the gym this is great. The place is small inside - you can only fit about 10-15 people in there before its packed, i do wish it was bigger to fit the business they do. This place is constantly busy. Which bring me to the biggest issue - This place is BUSY! Sometimes you can get lucky and call in your order ahead of time but many times on the weekends they are so busy they will pickup the phone and just hang up on you. Its happened to me many times. If there was another local spot I'd go there but there are not many other options close by and their food is great! I just think they are too busy for their own good sometimes, the staff struggles. Besides the shotty service sometimes simply because they are so busy, in all other instances its never a problem and i would definitely recommend this place. It is a little pricey but its good.

These bagels are so good that through the years when I've been away from home I've stocked up and froze the bagels to have long term. To me no other bagel compares to this place. I will forever love and come to this bagel shop. They have the best bagels in NJ in my book.

Doughy. Soft. Reliable. These little guys get absolutely demolished by my coworkers every single time, which tells you everything you need to know. No leftovers = success. This place is aggressively basic and I mean that as a compliment. No wild cream cheese flavors, no bagel flavors you need explained to you, no coffee that requires a TED Talk. They've got hot coffee, iced coffee, and both do exactly what they're supposed to do: keep you functioning. If I'm craving crispy bagels? I know where to go. If I want 47 flavors of cream cheese including birthday cake and Buffalo chicken? I know where to go. But if I want a good, doughy bagel that does its job and doesn't overcomplicate my morning, this is it. The two employees I see every Tuesday are amazing. Friendly, fast, and way too pleasant for the hour and the amount of bagels I order. Never an attitude, never rushing me, just good old-fashioned customer service like it's 1998. Speaking of 1998... the inside hasn't changed since then. It's frozen in time. But weirdly, that's comforting. Clean place. Renovate it and suddenly the bagels might start acting different. Don't touch it. Bottom line: K C's isn't trying to be trendy. It's just trying to feed you and it succeeds.
