awesome bagels and service, we had An Amazing time and we enjoyed the food immensely. The atmosphere was great and our party of 7 was happy

this location is absolutely great but in specific, Nany is such an amazing employee! Really the best employee ever!! she's been making me feel like at home and comfortable with the brand since I first started coming here. Such a sense of community! Highly recommended this location :)) read more

I had such a wonderful experience at PopUp Bagels in Williamsburg, and it was entirely because of Jackie. My credit card wasn't working, and without hesitation, Jackie offered to share her own shift meal with me. It was an incredibly kind and generous gesture, but what stayed with me even more was simply talking with her. Her positivity is radiant. She has such a warm, kind outlook on life, and you can tell that generosity is just part of who she is. We talked for a bit, and the way she spoke about her three kids with so much love and pride genuinely made my day. There are certain people you meet briefly who leave an impression because of the warmth they carry with them, and Jackie is absolutely one of those people. PopUp Bagels is lucky to have her. I hope someone there sees this and makes sure Jackie knows that her kindness, positivity, and the way she treats people do not go unnoticed. She deserves to be recognized. Thank you, Jackie!! read more

Both my daughter and I had this place on our radar before coming to NY and when we were exploring Williamsburg on a cold rainy Friday this was a no brainer! I was concerned with the hype these bagels have been getting that we would be dealing with long lines but fortunately we were able to walk right up and order. You cant order individual bagels. The minimum order is 3 but this gives you the opportunity to try all three of their offerings (everything, salt, & plain) and then you just "Rip & Dip" into your schmear (for us it was a scallion schmear). The bagels were hot and delicious and not heavy at all which is usually what im used to. They had a nice crust to them and good little chew but were also airy in a way. The schmear was also very good and they also offer special schmears which alternate. These could be my favorite bagels in all of NY! read more

Tried Pop Up Bagels today and overall, it was a really solid experience. The flavor of the bagels was excellent super fresh with that classic NY taste. I especially loved the scallion cream cheese creamy, flavorful, and generously spread. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is that the bagels weren't as soft and fluffy as I expected. They had more of a chewy texture, which some people might love, but I personally prefer a little more softness. Still, the quality and flavor are definitely there, and I'll be back to try more. Great grab-and-go spot, and perfect if you're picking up for a group. read more

PopUp Bagels is so good! My friend had it saved on her list and it was a block away from where we are currently staying in Williamsburg. We stopped by around 9 AM this past Monday morning to pick up some bagels. The staff was nice and friendly. 3-PACK BAGELS (PLAIN) - 13 + 12 for 4oz smoked salmon + plain schmear (a small tub of plain cream cheese, but scallion would have been a great option to be honest) I think we can get any bagel type but we went with plain. They were really nice and ended up giving us four bagels (yum). Everything came unassembled -- a paper bag to hold four bagels, a tub of plain cream cheese, and smoked salmon in its original packaging. It was nice to make our own smoked salmon bagel sandwich and use as much (or as little) cream cheese as we wanted. We used half of the smoked salmon per bagel, which was the perfect amount. The cream cheese was strong and nicely whipped (and not dense!), and the bagels were fresh and had a nice texture but also not too much dough. It was a very filling breakfast that we both enjoyed. We still had two bagels left over which my friend enjoyed the next couple mornings with the left over cream cheese (and there was a lot left!). Overall, fair price for the amount of bagels we got, and we made two smoked salmon bagels out of it! read more

Came here on a Saturday morning and surprised to find no line. We got the 3 piece with the scallion cream cheese costing $13. When I saw the everything bagel, this is TRULY an EVERYTHING and everywhere bagel. I don't think I've had an everything bagel where it's covered completely. The bagel was warm with a nice firm outside and soft fluffy inside. Paired with the scallion cream cheese, it's perfect. They also give a lot of cream cheese too. read more

This PopUp Bagel is a WIN for Brooklyn Bagels. They're fresh, soft and super delicious. The staff is friendly and welcoming and don't rush you. Coffee is really good and their easy menu is quick and simple. I love this place. This is one of those businesses in the neighborhood that pumps life and love into it. Definitely a labor of love on the Proprietor's part. Ambience is total NY with an industrial flair. The merch is an added bonus if you want to take a little part of Williamsburg Brooklyn home with you. Right in the heart of Williamsburg, it's a block from the Apple Store. Take a few minutes and visit. You won't be sorry you did! BTW they CATER too. **This is an unpaid/uncompensated private review by a hippie chick world traveler. read more

Yall know you are lying about running out of the "bumble bff" promo offers at 8:50am... if the promo was more successful than you thought, maybe you should've just stopped doing the promo. I stood outside eating a pastry from La bicyclette and watched no more than 10 people go into buy bagels over the course of 30 minutes and you're telling me you gave free bagels out to 100 people since you opened? It's just not believable. Pretty pathetic. read more

Snagged some free bagels with their new berry butter. Friendly staff and delicious bagels

I was influenced. I'm a lifelong New Yorker. I love and appreciate a good bagel. I've seen so many posts on IG and TT about Pop-up Bagels. The bagels are served warm with a side of cream cheese. To eat you rip and dip. The bagels at this location come in 3 flavors: poppy, sesame, and everything. We chose 1 of each and the scallion cream cheese. One thing is for certain, these bagels are piping hot. We ate immediately and we started with sesame, poppy, then everything. The everything was superior among the 3. These were just OK. I think they are a novelty and very trendy but not the best bagel I've ever had. The establishment is small and not meant for dining in. They serve coffee and have smoked salmon/whitefish spreads. The staff were kind and provided speedy service. Overall, I was influenced. I tried. I enjoyed but it was just OK for me. read more

Pretty legit. Tasty, chewy, and lots of cream cheese! Service was pretty quick. Shop was small, and I don't recall there were seats but I intended to take my order to go anyhow. No single bagel purchases, by three or six. Plain, everything, sesame, and salted were the options. Poppy wasn't ready when I arrived! As for the cream cheese, I got the scallion cream cheese. Super spreadable and delicious, I used it on other food items at home. I'm curious about the other funkier spreads - I saw a chili lime so will have to come back. This is ideal for 2-3 people. The bagels are on the smaller side so one alone wasn't enough for me. read more

Walking to the office, I randomly passed by Popup Bagels in Williamsburg. I've heard the hype for years but never tried it. Went in and was surprised there's a 3-bagel minimum with a spread. My first thought: what am I going to do with 3 bagels? Glad I did though -- they're smaller than your typical bagel, so it's not overwhelming. I got an everything, a sesame, and a salt bagel with scallion spread. The bagels were soft and fluffy, with the perfect chew, and the scallion spread was incredibly fresh and flavorful. Maybe I just got lucky, but on a Wednesday morning there was no line at all. Definitely recommend, especially if you want a lighter, more snackable bagel experience without sacrificing flavor. read more

I've been wanting to try pop up bagels ever since they first opened up in manhattan but was too scared of the long lines. So when I saw they were gunna open up a location in williamsburg, my body was ready. Theyre finally open and wow, these bagels are one of a kind. Its hard to explain the texture. Note: There's a 3 bagel minimum so come with someone to share or be prepared to eat 3 bagels in one day. Also, whoever is in charge of the aux cable has good tastes. I was shazamming every song. read more

TLDR: 2 main issues: timely delivery planning operation (and a few bad orders) and shrinkflation (value decreased with the reduction in bagel sizes). I've ordered delivery since they opened the option to do so. Typical delivery times are 30-45 min for me but lately when I schedule a morning delivery, times are doubled (1.5 hrs). I've worked in food service, the easiest thing to do is pre-plan scheduled orders to be timely and out the door before the doors open to avoid morning rush (they don't have this operational mentality and it shows in wrong orders and long delivery times). Additionally I've noticed a decline in size of bagels offered since last year's opening. It's unfortunate but a reality. However I don't have to spend more for a "fine" bagel with a novelty pitch and will pivot to my other local spots. Not best, not the worst. On occasion I'll given them an order now but no longer regularly. All the best. read more

Popup Bagels can be be found in several locations as pop-ups or permanent locations, having their most recent location 'pop-up' in Williamsburg! As their other locations, the bagels here were hot and fresh, with a slight crisp exterior with a fluffy chewy interior. We went with their Everything and Poppy bagels, with the Scallion Cream Cheese; they also feature specialty butter and schmear of the week. Don't let the long line deter you - the staff and service was pretty efficient and keeps the line moving! +hot bagels +friendly service read more

delicious bagels! the fluffiest bagels i've ever had. i will say, it's weird to me that i HAVE to get a pack of 3 and i can't just get 1. we got the scallion cream cheese and was delicious read more

I wasn't sure about what option to try and they were so sweet in helping me navigate. Will be back next week!!

I got to experience the soft open of the PopUp Bagels location and it was a treat! The space has some indoor seating, decorated super well. The bagels are FRESH, and they do the "grip it, rip it, dip it" over here. I got an assortment of bagels with the scallion cream cheese and I was so happy! The salt bagel (I usually would get everything) was my favorite! I highly recommend eating these fresh/asap. The bagels have a nice crunch on the outside and soft on the inside. Sooo good! They have drip hot coffee and drinks in a fridge too. The cold brew was really good. You have to buy at least 3 bagels at a time, but I see it as a great way to try a couple or share with friends! read more

Must order a minimum of 3 bagels, only comes with one spread, you have to make it yourself!!! and little to no seating.

Fast and friendly service. The peppercini schmear was out of this world! Bagels are pretty good too. Its a rip your bagel into pieces and dip kind of place which is a nice change of pace. read more

Our daughter recommended this bagel shop for our NY trip and it didn't disappoint. The bagels - warm, doughy with good texture - was spot on. Both the scallion schmear and the limited time Grillo pickle de gallo were excellent. Tried the everything, plain, and salted, and liked the everything the best. The server was super friendly and helpful. Will definitely return next time we're in NY. read more

The bagels come out warm with a nice spread. You can order 3 or 6 with different kind of cream cheese of yr choice. I ordered sesame bagel & it has the perfect chewiness of a bagel. It's best to eat it while it's warm. It has an outside table where you can eat while standing up. read more

First off delicious, secondly the two gentleman in there this morning had great customer service, will definitely come back!

Very good egg cheddar bacon sandwich on biscuit. Outdoor space to eat. Nice breakfast walk

Much as I love their bagels, I feel that I am always short changed with my order. Always missing a piece everytime I order which is mostly a dozen. Since most of the time I am in a hurry to get home, I always forget to count the bagels that are given to me. Beware always count the bagels they give you ! read more

i have been meaning to try this bagel spot since it became viral online and it did not disappoint. i shared the dozen bagels with two smears for $42. this week the specialty schmears were spinach artichoke cream cheese and tomato basil butter. both were absolutely delicious. the vibes inside of the shop are adorable. there is a few seats inside and everything is super branded and it's really cute. i also got a hat which was a little pink hat that said not famous but known, which is their logo and it was really really cute. so the bagels are served warm and they pair incredibly well with the flavored smears. i found the flavors to be such a great balance of present, but not overpowering. qnd when they're paired with the hot bagels, it's absolutely incredible. for the bagels, every single one was incredible and they had such a good seed to bagel ratio. they were served warm and they were super super soft inside. i definitely recommend. read more

Really good and fresh bagels! I don't love that you have to buy in multiples of three, plus a cream cheese, but oh well. The woman working at the register was nice. read more

Obsessed is an understatement. My boyfriend and I think about these bagels more often than one should- warm, fluffy, simply perfect. This is by far my fave bagel in NYC, and since I've been here for over 15 years, I've eaten A LOT of bagels. Today we got the spicy pickle and a surprise butter candy corn schmear and we are dyinggggg over how freakin amazing they are. Keep doing what you're doing and don't change a thing. read more

The one star is not about the bagels. It is for the dumb system they have whereby you have to buy three bagels and they give you a container of cream cheese to go with that, so you've got to spend about 12 or 13 dollars. I wanted to try one of their bagels, a single bagel, and did not want three bagels and did not want any cream cheese. I have never seen a bagel joint where you can not buy a single bagel. This is the dumbest fucken thing I've ever heard of. I wanted to try their bagels for the first time, not get three and cream cheese and spend 13$. Fucken stupid. read more
