Always a treat to visit New York Bagel! We went in on a Sunday morning around 9am and were able to order right away. We ordered the Skinny Atlas - fried eggs, hash brown, cream cheese, capers, and lox on the bagel of your choice. I went with an everything bagel. Very filling, came out pretty quickly! We also both got coffees - love that it's Coffee Mania! The hot coffee was very hot, iced w/ coconut flavor was good. We were just wishing that there was extra cream available for customers to add. Overall, good hearty breakfast in a fun, busy environment! read more

Can't wait to go back tomorrow! Amazing bagel- like real New York bagels! Be sure to try the flavored cream cheese! read more

Boy was this a mistake! First of all, the customer service is terrible - a bunch of girls standing around giving dirty looks. Not welcoming at all. The food is subpar at best. I asked for bacon, egg, and avocado on a plain bagel. I am not including a photo because the avocado looked like baby poop - I understand that avocado browns easily but there are ways to prevent that. The bagel was barely toasted. My iced coffee was very bland and watered down. Total waste of money and we will not be back! read more

Went on a Sunday morning- we got there just in time before the college students started to roll in. Really good coffee and bagels- almost made me feel like I was in Manhattan and not Cortland! The staff were friendly and efficient. Clean, simple eating space. Would definitely go back! read more

Always a great experience here! The owner and employees are super friendly and greet me every time I walk in. The place is very clean and well-kept, which I really appreciate. I can stop in to grab my bagels to go or sit down for a bite -- YUM! There's plenty of seating inside, plus the new outdoor seating, which I love. Prices are very reasonable too. One of my favorite parts is the wall with Cortland State, Yankee memorabilia and photos of people who've come to visit -- it gives the place such a fun and welcoming atmosphere. Definitely worth checking out! read more

Food was amazing. Bagel was great! Service was also great. I love the decoration. I recommend this place if you are around Cortland.

We went for my birthday, the food was good but the experience wasn't. We ordered 3 acai bowls, they made two of them wrong. When we brought them back we stood there waiting for 5 minutes as one worker was standing there staring at us then proceeded to get on her phone and not help us. Then after they finally fixed our order we could hear the same worker who was standing there on her phone complaining about us when we were quite polite about the whole situation. Again food was good, but don't recommend because the service was trash. read more

Never disappointed with their bagels and of course the sandwich's they offer. The sweets are pretty good too

Food was delivered! Yummy! I ordered for pick up, it was ready and warm when I arrived- read more

I was staying in Cortland for a change of pace and for some hiking and found this little place on main street nice and convenient from my Air B n B. The interior was pretty cute, typical café with tables, chairs, and counter to order at. The staff were very friendly and the food was pretty good as well. I ordered the Hulk breakfast wrap and it was some seriously awesome meaty deliciousness. We also tried one of their specialty coffees and I got their iced coffee both fresh and tasty. Had to grab a muffin as well. Overall good place, good food, and good prices! I'd visit again for sure! read more

I don't really know how you can mess up a toasted bagel with cream cheese. No offense but it's a shame they call themselves New York Bagel because this is the farthest thing from a traditional NY bagel. read more

New York Bagel - everything bagel supposed to be toasted with a block of cream cheese - Bagels Near Me - Cortland, New York

Meh. The service was slow - especially for a simple order. The bagel itself wasn't fresh - and it was early in the morning. Perhaps if I ordered something else? I may try again but I just wasn't very impressed. read more

Delicious selection of bagels, sandwiches and the chai tea is pure perfection. I have never been disappointed with this sweet little shop. Recommend! read more

This is the real deal- a GREAT bagel shop with delicious classics and innovative new recipes. The bagels are from NYC, all the cream cheeses and sauces are homemade on property freshly made by the owner who is a local family/owned business. They support local coffee business CoffeMania. Try the Vanderbilt bagel and Miller panini- our favorite! read more

I spent only a brief amount of time here while stretching my legs on a drive, but I wanted to sing some quick praises for their cold brew. Super nice guy behind the counter welcomed me, and the coffee itself was lovely! read more

The coffee and bagel shop may be small but the variety and tastes of their coffee, bagels and spreads and fresh made breakfast sandwiches and wraps are huge. The staff is friendly and the shop is clean top to bottom. There is limited seating both indoor and out. I have yet to have a bad experience. read more

Very good! Highly recommend for a bagel if you want one in Cortland. Definitely not like New York bagels but you're not in nyc so what do you expect. read more

Good bagels but terrible service went down to grab 2 bagels and the shop was completely empty with 3 employees. It took them 30 minutes to make my bagels and they were ice cold. I love supporting local businesses but I do not appreciate the awful service. read more

It was fine and pretty much what I expected. The bagels were a bit doughy and chewy. They had 4 people working behind the counter and still somehow messed up our (very basic) order. Average service, average food. read more

One of my favorite breakfast spots in Cortland! Bagels are good and they have a ton of sandwich choices. It definitely gets busy on weekend morning so you have to beat the hungover crowd! They also have a wide array of drinks to satisfy anyone. Prices are fair and food was really good. read more

I will give New York bagel 4 stars out of 5 and I will explain why. Food is good owner of place is very nice and accommodating, however some of his employees are nasty. I go there every morning and get the same thing every morning today was no different and it's the same nasty service. Employee are not able to multitask. I will bring it to the owner's attention in hopes he will resolve this issue. read more

As a native of Long Island, I am hesitant to try any bagels north of Westchester County. After living in Cortland for two years, I finally decided to try breakfast at Long Island Bagel. Not only was the place packed with customers, but the staff of 7 had no idea how to deal with the large crowd. In fact, it was so disorganized that I could have gotten my food without ever paying. When I was finally given my sandwich after 20 minutes, I was given something completely different from my order. Not only was my order completely wrong, but the staff was too busy to address the issue. As for the bagel itself, it was better than anything I've gotten from a supermarket, but nothing to brag about. If the prices were more reasonable and the service more organized, I might consider revisiting Long Island Bagel in the future. read more

Waited over an hour for 2 egg sandwiches Ridiculous to say the least. People were walking in and out with their food and when I inquired about mine , I got the rudest response from the most unorganized staff I've ever seen. Definitely NOT a place to go to if your hungry. I WILL never come back unless I have a whole day to spare and do nothing. No thank you ... my time is more valuable! I wouldn't give it even 1 star read more

Food is pretty good, the timing of service depends on when you go but no workers have been rude! Can get very hectic and they have a large menu read more

Where the college kids go. Great coffee, sandwiches, unreliable iPad today so had to come back with cash. All were happy with their takeout selections, but seating is available. read more

The food and coffee are excellent. However I have often found the customer service to be seriously lacking. On one occasion the absence of communication between the cooks and the barista resulted in me sitting with all of my food (to go) growing cold while I waited almost 20 minutes for my drinks to be prepared. This morning there was no line to speak of (4 other customers the whole time I was there) and yet it took 15 minutes for the young woman to make my sandwich while the young man puttered around at the griddle. She did not take anyone else's order or prepare anyone else's food. She was doing ONE customer at a time at a leisurely pace. After she handed me my prepared sandwich and rang me out she turned to him and said "Oh, can you make her drink for me?" He proceeded to take almost another 5 minutes to make my coffee. I don't mind waiting when they are busy, but this is a special treat I get maybe once a month on my way in to work and I can't afford to be hanging around for 20 minutes. Management needs to impress on the staff that customers at a place like this are getting food to go because they are in a hurry and we don't have time to laze about. read more

Very friendly service, extensive menu, Coffee Mania drinks, and FRESHLY COOKED EGGS. None of that frozen garbage. I got the Taylor breakfast wrap. It was ginormous! Not to mention delicious... and my small coffee was the size of a medium or large at any other coffee shop. The window seats with the comfy chairs were all taken when we came, but there's plenty of other seating in the casual, comfortable atmosphere. Will definitely be coming back to try some more of their menu options. The smoothies sounded amazing. read more

If you want anything done differently then how your bagel comes. They will intentionally make you wait. I asked for my bagel toasted with butter and the eggs and the bacon left on the side so I could put it on myself. The girls gave six other people their orders before I got mine. I waited around more then 15 minutes. And when I got my food my bagel wasn't even buttered. When I asked for butter the girl filled the container up with so much butter. I didn't ask for my eggs to be made any certain way so there was no reason to wait as long as I did. They were rude about the simple request I made. I will not go back due to the tacky way they handled my order. read more

My second time there its been very good ,food good .great service nice spot . This maybe my Cortland office nice job

Awesome bagels, awesome sandwiches, and they're SO accommodating. I cant believe i didn't write this review sooner... they rock!

I've over debated for a long time what to do with this review bc I try to only leave reviews when I really love a place but this establishment made me feel a way I never have before so I feel like it's my duty to warn others. The positives, their food is actually pretty delicious and very well priced and its conveniently located on main street in Cortland so reasons like that make me even sadder that I will NEVER, EVER go there or give this company my business again. At the end of our visit I placed an order for one cookie and two fancy coffees. The total came to $13. There was no one else in the building at this point and at least 6 people working. A bunch of younger girls and an older man who I assume is the boss. They were all cleaning and after about 5 minutes it seemed like awhile to not have our drinks with no competition. My friend said something after 10 and they seemed to not even believe us when she said we placed an order. The girl that took our order was out taking out garbage but I figured they could just look at their records and see we did buy them. So she makes the drinks and calls them out and ROLLS her eyes at us. I can't make this up. They made us feel like thieves for something we paid for and I'm sorry if we said nothing and paid 13 dollars for a cookie that would be outrageous. I've worked as a barista in the past and if I had ever just completely forgot to do my job I would have been so apologetic and fixed it right away. I've never felt that way before at any establishment and I don't know what happened. I'm very self aware of myself flaws and all but I am an extremely nice person and so is my friend so that wasn't the issue. We shouldn't have had to beg for something we paid for and we shouldn't have been treated so rudely. read more

Great bagels, lox is also very good Bagel sandwiches are really good and made to order fealty personal service read more

Absolutely terrible. Had many many bad experiences with them but gave them a few chances to fix it. Picked up an order we sent and every single sandwhich was wrong, once they started to fix it it took an extra 40 minutes to remake them and then one was still wrong. The order was directly on a text message and they still messed it up. They do this quite often and then never once make it up to you by a discount or fast fixing. Very poor service and are not considerate to their customers. read more

What a hidden gem! Tucked in busy streets of Cortland NY, this bagel shop is anything but ordinary. From their extensive menu, to the beautiful ambiance, this place is a real treat. Definitely recommend stopping. They have something for everyone! read more

Best bagel sandwich I've had in a long time! Fast service too. They have a couple outdoor seating spots too so I sat outside and leisurely enjoyed their coffee. read more

I was very skeptical at first...being from the city where it is easy to find a good bagel place. But this was quite a find. The bagels were fresh and the staff was friendly. Considering it is run by young kids (college age) it was running pretty smooth. It was a long wait but there was a tail of people just waiting to place the order. I would have to recommend the owner consider a bigger cooking area because the cook was doing his best to keep up. There is a reason this place was packed and the place across the street had NO ONE. Worth the stop for a good bagel sandwich; an extensive amount of options. Go early and beat the crowd. read more

Excellent coffee (the Brockway beats Starbucks Americano), good food, friendly service. Thanks for helping add to a great graduation weekend! read more

I love Long Island Bagel! The bagels are always fresh, the coffee is piping hot and very good, and the service is decent! It can be a little crazy when the Cortland students are in town & the decor isn't much to look at, but if you're looking for tasty, fresh bagels & great coffee, this is the place! read more

I've been here twice and both times there was an issue with my order. The first time I asked for chicken and I got turkey on my bagel and the second time I asked for no tomatoes and no mayo and it seems like I got extra of both. They weren't even busy while I was there. It's always disappointing when I get home and open my bagel to see something I didn't order. I'll probably just go to Brueggers in Syracuse next time I want a bagel. read more
