    Corner bagel spot on Lawerence street, street station is up the block. Plenty of space to sit. I ordered a lox bagel with cream cheese and onion. I also ordered "the heart healthy" green juice. My order came out super fast. Both the bagel and the juice were good. I would come here again if I was in a hurry and needed a quick bite.

    We were in and out quick with a delicious breakfast and hot drinks in hand! The staff was friendly and the service was quick. We took our food to go so we didn't stick around long but some people seemed to be enjoying dining inside!

    Super small amount of cc for $9.75

    Picked up everything on the bagel with lox scallion cream cheese. Why and how that possible that it was super small amount of cc? And they changed $9.75. Plain bagel cost $2 so for extra $7 I'm getting small drop of cc. It's cheaper to buy cc by pound and just put amount that you like. Of course I will never come to this place

    Sausage Egg and Cheese on an everything bagel

    Bagel. The New York classic. I find that there are 3 ways getting one. 1) from a deli / food cart, 2) Costco and make it yourself or 3) you come to a dedicated bagel restaurant like Pio, Liberty or others. Pio Bagel focuses on the bagel and provides options on customising your bagel to your preference. There are many many spreads to choose from and at the end of the day, you really can't go wrong! One thing I can appreciate with Pio Bagel here versus others is that the add ons are not as overpriced as the city. And on that note, its consistency gives it the rating it deserves. A+

    After a very disappointing Sunday morning start with no means of conveyance caused by MTA NYC Transit's weekend route changes for planned work, I turned around and headed home abscond without a one day city getaway adventure. In extreme tears and hunger of my travels I decided for one garlic bagel with lox spread cream cheese $5.72. Customer service is nonexistent as the order line and pick-up line is chaotic and the staff stands at the counter without any greeting or the standard "how may I help you?" I was in a very melancholy and despondent mood and standing without a welcoming greeting made my morning worse. The lox spread cream cheese is very pink with very minimal salmon. The lox spread was awful whom NYC Mayor Adams' food offering of bagels to the NYC high influx migrant crisis who would surely refuse. This bagel shop does not carry actual salmon per se. The bagel was very chewy and the exterior was hard. I did not taste any garlic flavor. The atmospheric conditions are dark, stolid with minimal seating. Price is reasonable.

    Toasted Jalapeño Bagel with Scallion Cream Cheese and Egg
    Vivienne C.

    Needed to grab some bagels early morning before work and stopped by Pio Bagels. I was worried the line was going to be long, but it actually moved very fast and I was in and out within 5 minutes. I ordered the Egg and Scallion Cream Cheese on a Toasted Jalapeno Bagel and it was very okay. The egg wasn't very fluffy and the bagel itself was kind of hard. I will say that I appreciate the scallion cream cheese though as it was extremely melty with large chunks of scallion, although I will have to say that it was laid on less thick than other bagel places. I think the most staggering part of this bagel was that it was almost $8 whereas other places it's usually around $5. I will say that if you order online apparently you get a 5% off. Overall, okay bagel place. Not sure if I would come back again because there are definitely other better options in NYC.

    Lox Supreme bagel sandwiches
    Alyanna T.

    My partner and I both got Lox Supreme bagel sandwiches - TASTE: 5/5 - classic flavors w the salty lox, sweet tomatoes, salty capers, and sharp onions on a garlicky, everything bagel TEXTURE: 4/5 - the cream cheese and crunchy onions added nice contrast PRICE: 4/5 - total came to $32.34, which I expected SERVING SIZE: 5/5 - I get lox bagel sandwiches often; this was the largest by far and left us very full and satisfied SERVICE: 4/5 - made our online order at 10am on a Tuesday, and waited 5min when we arrived to Pio's ATMOSPHERE: 4/5 - small corner spot w a counter to stand and eat PARKING: 4/5 - got a free street parking spot on the same block along Willoughby St

    Everything bagel with lox spread
    Rumi F.

    Wanted to grab some bagels for breakfast (because it's the breakfast of champions) and stopped by Pio Bagel. Ah, the signs of an efficient bagel/breakfast place- staff quickly moving people through the line, ringing them up, slathering cream cheese on fresh bagels... you gotta love it. I got 2 bagels (one with nova/scallion cream cheese and the other with lox spread)- all together including tip, it was about $24. Bagels were fresh and delicious- the nova was super flavorful and the lox spread did not skimp on the lox. Solid deli!

    Cinnamon raisin with strawberry cream cheese
    Sara B.

    Had bagels here a few times and they were delicious! We tried several flavor combos - bagels and cream cheese options. (My strawberry cream cheese had full slices of strawberries in it. Amazing!) Service was quick and super friendly. Inside space is really small so they are best on the go. Worth stopping in.

    Every time I visit New York, I absolutely must eat a bagel. Preferably an everything bagel with herb or scallion cream cheese. Luckily for me, Pio's was very close to where I was staying and they had the exact combo: everything bagel with scallion cream cheese. The bagel was nice and chewy (plus, I got one out of a fresh batch, so it was hot!) and they didn't skimp on the cream cheese. The cream cheese had nice pieces of scallions, which I loved, but if you're into more smooth cream cheeses, this one ain't for you. Service was quick and easy. Would return for sure to keep trying their other cream cheeses and bagels.

As far as the customer service goes I wish it was a bit better. The staff aren't the most pleasant. No good morning no acknowledgement of comprehending what you order they just walk away and start the order. Which is why I double check always. I do notice they speak more pleasantly to other customers that come in. Not sure if it's a culture thing or could they be discriminatory but it's a bit unsettling. Food: 3.8/5 I only order the poppy seed bagel and that's pretty tasty. Not to doughy although I do have them take out a good portion of the bread because I like it to be extremely thin. Service: 3 /5 Service needs major improvements , language barriers are also a major factor to consider as they do speak Spanish and their primary language. Ambiance: 3/5 Standard & basic bagel shop set up. Standing & waiting area is basic they have counter tops should you want to stand inside and eat nothing fancy. They do have a wide variety of drinks to choose from and coffee and tea.

It was about a 20 minute wait from enter the shop, grabbing a ticket, waiting for your number to be called, ordering the sandwich, getting the food and paying. Waiting for your number to be called happens faster than you think as people do drop out like flies, so just be patient. If you order yourself a Classic Bagel & Lox Sandwich ($17) like I did, you can watch them filet the salmon fresh from the fish itself to be used just for your sandwich. I did everything bagel and choose Scallion cream cheese, which seems like the popular choice. It's good enough to go out of the way to try once in your life. To be a repeat customer, idk if I want to wait in line for this every weekend. Additionally, there's no seating besides the benches that's outside. I do have to give it to them, among the chaos, the employee that helped me was super friendly. I also saw some of the customers get salmon samples of the salmon for the lox. Idk if they asked or the employee just happened to be offering it.

I was looking for a breakfast spot close to my hotel near 7th Ave and found a couple of contenders on 8th Ave - I decided to hit Brooklyn Bagel as it showed more reviews. We have Brooklyn Bagel in Atlanta so I'm familiar with the chain - most Atlanta bagels are sub-par, something about the horrible Atlanta water. I figured it was time to sample a location in NYC. This location is fairly old-school, directly on 8th Ave between W 24th and W25th streets. Coming in there was a line but it moved quickly - you go to the back of the shop, call out what you want and move towards the register to pay. I think it took about 7 minutes to get the BKbagel Classic - - smoked Nova salmon, scallion cream cheese, onion, tomato & capers. I asked for it on a toasted everything and it was everything I thought it would be - perfect bite. Service was great, no nonsense but friendly.

Cream cheese, salmon, and capers, etc. on the soft, delicious bagel. Also got a blueberry muffin for the kids and they loved that! All in all great experience. I'd drop it down to 4.5 stars just because the loud setting is not really my vibe, but everything else was great!
