Food is very good. I've been here a couple times and they never skimp on what you order and the bagels are delicious. I usually order the BECA bagel breakfast sandwich Service is not so good - the man at the counter was very flustered and rude to costumers. People who placed an online order we not being helped or given their food in a timely manor - so it just sat on the counter for an extended period of time. As far as ambiance, I wouldn't pick to eat there since it feels so high stress - I'd take it to go. read more

This place is amazing. Sometimes there is a long line but it is definitely worth the wait. I ordered The Whole Megillah and I highly recommend it. My bagel was toasted and extremely flavorful. I went to this place countless of times and they always tasted great. read more

Eggs look and taste like they're a patty made elsewhere. Cheese was gross. Bagel itself was passable.

The bagels were delicious, but so inconvenient to eat. My friends and I were struggling to hold them, but the cream cheese was delicious nonetheless. I dont recommend if on the go, but I would come back for a simpler sandwich :) read more

Why only 3 stars? Should be 5. Great bagels and cream cheese selection. The real deal.

My first time ordering from them. Very disappointed. I ordered an everything lox, it came with nothing. It had no tomato, cucumber or onions. The lox was dry. The sandwich cost over $15. I emailed them with my concern and as of yet, I have not heard from them. read more

Native LE Sider here. Grew up in the original Kossars bagels and bialys. I think Murray's bagels are terrific. I don't recognize the experiences that garnered negative reviews. That said, I don't get toasted bagels, and I tend to go on the weekend. That said - Murray's rules. read more

Updating my review here. Ordered a couple other times since the initial review and both orders arrived almost an hour late and cold. --- Ordered egg whites and bacon on a bagel on Seamless and it arrived earlier than estimated, which was a welcome surprise. Would recommend! read more

I was very impressed by the everything bagel with lox & plain cream cheese! Perfectly toasted bagel and generous cream cheese. Lox was fresh and melted in my mouth. Would definitely have this again! read more

This was the first place I went to after landing in NYC and it couldn't have been a better welcome to the city. The long line (which moved quickly!) makes perfect sense to me because these bagels were delicious. I ordered the club on everything bagel and it had so much meat, but the bagel was also so soft and flavorful; really just a perfect sandwich. I would come here so often if I lived in NY... highly recommend! read more

Great bagels but a frustrating, horrible experience. Even if there are two other customers, you will have a half hour wait for service. They used to be the best in the area but those days are long gone. If you have to wait in line, i recommend Pop-up or Tompkins Square on 17th. read more

After a long weekend in NYC, we headed to Murray's Bagels to buy bagels to accompany our hangovers. We managed to snag a table and only had to wait about 10 minutes after ordering. I went for the sesame toasted with whitefish spread (my favorite) and my friend ordered the traditional bagel with lox, capers, onions, and cream cheese. Needless to say, I loved waking up with Murray's. read more

Average food at Manhattan prices. Staff was friendly, service was slow. Not a great experience, but not the worst. Place is kind of narrow and cramped. You could sit and eat but i felt like i was constantly moving around so people could get around me. read more

We ordered this in for breakfast and the delivery process was seamless. In terms of our order, we got the onion bagel with scallion cream cheese, pumpernickel bagel with sundries tomato cream cheese and chocolate chip bagel. Now the bagels were huge in size, about double of a typical bagel, the texture was good and the amount of cream cheese was generous. While it was a good solid bagel, it wasn't the best I've had in the city. As for the muffin, it was mediocre at best. All in all, prices were decent and the bagels (not the muffins) were good, though there are better places in the city to explore! read more

Favorite bagel place in NYC! Always come here after classes for a cheap lunch (I go to The New School). The bagels are great and the cream cheese is never runny. The place always has a line around noon, but it goes fast. Shoutout to the guy who always calls me (and others) sweetheart. read more

They were so generous with the smoked salmon in my bagel! It was delicious and I was full for a long time lol. We went back again before leaving the city because we love it so much. read more

Before walking into this place, I had to stop by a Starbucks for a grande because Murray's coffee is horse urine. That said, their bagels are pretty decent, especially toasted. And I must admit, their Scottish salmon is off the hook. Fine, they've earned an extra star for that. For some reason, my order caused massive confusion and quite a scene: plain bagel, cream cheese, Scottish salmon, and pastrami salmon. Figured I'd customize it a bit with a double dose of salmon. The cashier didn't know what to do and had to consult with the guy who handles the bagels. Before long, three of the workers formed a huddle to address this challenge. As the line of New Yorkers grew behind me, the team eventually resolved the issue and said it would cost extra. I said fine. By then, they had already forgotten the rest of my order, forcing me to repeat it a couple more times. To be exact, "extra" meant $11.95 extra for the pastrami salmon. This is fine. But when I got my bagel, it came with a measly few slices of pastrami salmon as the upper layer. The whole thing ended up costing about $25. I called the bagel handler out on this blatant ripoff, and he gave me a container of pastrami on the side, as he should have done initially. He handed it to me with a bit of attitude and an annoyed look on his face, as if he's trying to get rid of a beggar. While I do appreciate him making things right, I don't like the fact that I had to confront him in order to get what I paid for. I could've done without the attitude, too. read more

Visited on 12/10/22 a about 9 AM no line and ordered a customized bagel sandwich. When I tell you it was FANTASTIC!!!! I mean it!!!

Honestly I love my bagels and I tried a few places while in NY for a week. This place was honestly one of the best I tried. Service is super fast and correct. Bagels are fresh and they have multiple cream cheeses. Garlic bagel with garlic cream cheese is so good read more

Before I headed out of the city I stopped at Murray's Bagels near the West Village. Inside was a small quiet shop with some table and bench seating. We ordered an everything bagel with scallion cream cheese and lox as well as a bacon egg and cheese on a roll. The bagel was pretty good but where it shined was the cream cheese and lox. Both tasted very fresh. The breakfast sandwich was ok the bacon tasted gamey but the roll was soft and the eggs were great. read more

The bagels are real good. I was pleased with my bagel sandwich of fresh tuna with tomato and onion. I also got the veggie cream cheese with tomato on an everything bagel. The boom!

My favorite bagel spot, always on the must-hit list when I go back to NY. Toasting is murder!

Confused ab the bad reviews but happened upon this place randomly and gotta say the bagel is bomb. Good cream cheese and cream cheese to bagel ratio. The bagel itself is suprisingly fluffy after a 40 min train home. cozy atmosphere. Solid bagel shop choice read more

The bagels were amazing. There are also a wide range of seating options such as inside and outside. You can also get your bagels and take them to Washington Square Park. I also tried the chocolate babka and it was delicious. I will definitely come back again. read more

Every time I've ordered delivery from here something has been wrong. Usually something small, like my bagel isn't toasted when I ask for toasted dark, or I order (and pay for) a bagel with butter AND cream cheese and get one or the other, but still annoying. Today I went in person thinking they might actually get my order right this time, but of course I was wrong. Not only did they forget the hazelnut in my ice coffee, but I asked them to please pack up my drinks (the way they would for a delivery-- with a half tray in a handle bag) since I had a long walk, and they flat out refused. They gave me a full tray, that you have to hold with 2 hands, for my 15 minute walk to work, and then ignored me. The cherry on top is their asinine tipping options-- who's tipping 25% on 2 drinks and a couple of bagels ($30!) with that kind of service?? read more

*Delivery review* I just had delivery from here as I'm trying to diversify my bagel places. This was one of the worst I've had so far. This review is strictly based off the quality of food. I ordered a plain bagel with sun-dried tomato and garlic cream cheese with added jalapeños toasted. The bagel came and was extremely hard but didn't seem toasted. The bagel was cold, but that happens sometimes with delivery, so I won't be too upset with that. The cream cheese itself was off. Not only was it very sparingly placed between the two bagel halves but the taste itself was not quite right. I'm not sure if the cream cheese had gone bad, but I couldn't eat it. Also, I wish they specified that the jalapeños were not fresh, but pickled instead. This additionally left an overwhelming vinegar aftertaste in my mouth after only one bite. Very unappealing. I had also ordered a macaroon, apricot rugelach and coffee to meet delivery. The rugelach was just ok, it fell apart completely in my hand before I even took a bite. The only item I actually liked was the cranberry macaroon. It had a nice flavor and was just the right amount of sweetness. The coffee was straight up gross and I poured it out. It had also spilled a bunch during transit. I do appreciate them bagging up my coffee so it only spilled on itself however my coffee was swimming by the time it reached me. Overall, I was pretty disappointed in this delivery. I think for now I'll stick to my local bodega coffee and bagel. 2/5 read more

As seen in the picture, it gives plenty of fish! One of the best salmon bagel sandwiches i ever had. The cream cheese along with the nice chewy but crunchy bagel made it perfect read more

I went in today to pick up a pumpernickel bagel, blueberry cream cheese, and a bag of coffee (medium grind). The guy said they are all the same grind. Open my order at home, and I have plain cream cheese and a bag of coffee beans. Call them up, and her answers were, you asked for the medium blend (No, I didn't, I asked for "Fast Forward," the actual name of the coffee, and I show the photo of it on my phone), and you were only charged for plain cream cheese. But I asked for blueberry cream cheese! Do the two even sound similar?!! So basically, she said I could bring the coffee back for a refund, or they would grind it for me whenever you are ready. Not one apology for getting two out of three items wrong. Blame it all on the customer. I don't write reviews but this one really irks me. read more

I should've read the reviews before going. The menu is confusing - they keep talking about sandwiches on the wall. I wish they would call them Bagels. I just don't think of a bagel as a sandwich but ok. They've also got a range of cream cheese flavours but you wouldn't be able to tell based on the menu on the wall. It just really isn't well laid out for the customer. So I ordered an onion bagel with lox and plain cream cheese. The bagel itself had good texture, but was WAY too salty (I could honestly say I think they put a whole tsp of salt into each bagel. It wasn't even the fish that was salty, it was the bagel itself. And I'm not too salt sensitive but this had me running for water... So I half ate the bagel, left the rest and ate the fish. A shame! The second bagel I tried was supposed to be cinnamon raisin with strawberry cream cheese. Well they got the strawberry cream cheese part right. And put it on a poppyseed bagel instead. Like who would want strawberry cream cheese on poppy? Really? Weird. The staff were nice that took the order. But clearly someone can't tell a poppyseed from a raisin! But yeah, sadly I doubt I'll go back. Which was a shame - the shop itself looks lovely. read more

Good bagels. The best in New York? No. The worst? Definitely not. I ordered a toasted sesame bagel with sun-dried tomato and roasted garlic cream cheese. My wife got a toasted cinnamon raisin bagel with plain tofu cream cheese. When I got my order, instead of a sesame bagel, I was given a garlic bagel. While I love garlic bagels, I was in the mood for sesame. Took it back to the register and they quickly re-made it the right way without any hassle and let me keep the one they screwed up (my daughter enjoyed that one when we met her at the Starbucks Roastery later that evening). Good bagel but next time I'm in New York I'm going to track down the BEST. read more

Great bagels, preparation and speed. Never had a bad order from these folks. Great spot

Murray's is an authentic New York bagel operation. I respect their huge selection of lox preparations and schmears. They got my order right and the wait wasn't too long. But...I didn't love the bagel. Partly, I think their bagels are on the sweet side, which is a thing a lot of bagel shops do. Maybe the issue was that the bagel was not also salty - I got an everything bagel, and it seems like their "everything" does not include salt. The texture was good, though. Another reason I simply cannot give a fifth star is because they are unnecessarily packing every order in a plastic bag! What the heck? A couple of bagels in a paper bag do not need an over-bag. Finally, some ordering advice: ask them for "just a little cream cheese" unless you want to eat a whole brick of it. Like many places, they over-apply, but unlike other places, they will honor your request that they go easy on the schmear. read more

This was an underwhelming experience. I came here since I had never been to this place after going for a long run on the weekend. The line was pretty long which usually indicates the food is pretty good, right? Not really. I ordered an egg and bacon whole wheat bagel. Waited in line for probably 25 minutes and then waited another 10-15 minutes for the bagel to come out. The bagel wasn't even toasted. I would rather go to Bagel Buffet up the street. read more

Coming here on a weekend morning makes for a hectic experience because the place is packed, but the bagels are definitely worth experiencing at least once. They have tons of types of bagels, cream cheeses, and other toppings for the bagels. Prices are pretty typical for NYC and the service is fast once you've had the chance to order. read more

I came in here and asked for the price for 1/2 a pound of egg salad. The man said the price was $3.75. I ordered this, only to find that he gave me a quarter pound (mind you this was the size of a mini ketchup). I told him he provided the wrong price, and he refused to make it right. This place takes advantage of people, please go elsewhere. I will be telling everyone I know to stay away from this business, until they go under. If they can't deliver good customer service, they shouldn't be open. I will be calling the owner tomorrow, and will DEMAND compensation before removing this review. read more
