Bagels taste really fresh. I bought the Turkey Bacon Egg and Cheese on a whole wheat. The bagel tasted as if it contained clean ingredients. However, the coffee was very bitter. I would not recommend the coffee. read more

Great little bagel shop in town. It was crowded but the line moved quickly. I had a bagel with walnut cream cheese. It was so good. My husband said his breakfast sandwich was good as well. We will be back. read more

One of if not the most enjoyable Everything w/Lox I've had in the last few years living in New York City! First the bagel itself is large but not too airy-still dense enough. The flavor is great. You can tell they ARE freshly made as advertised. The everything seasoning hits the perfect balance of poppy, sesame, and rock salt...just maybe needs a little more. Lox is fresh, they do not skimp, and again perfect balance of tomato, onion, capers, smoked salmon and cream cheese. And all that for about half the price of Manhattan. I'm not in Newark often but I do come across the river to NJ a lot, so I think I'll be making some detours to visit Simply Bagels. read more

Friendly, kind and the food amazing! They got tables inside and lots of different drink choices. The place is pretty quiet and I'm surprised not a lot of people come but when they do I see them leave with big orders. read more

I've been here three times. All three times for the sea salt bagel. The first time was very early in the morning. The bagel was soft, fresh and not too salty with way too much cream cheese. The second time, the bagel was hard, not fresh and not too salty with just the right amount of cream cheese. The third time, the bagel was soft, fresh and way too salty with not nearly enough cream cheese. See the pattern here? You shouldn't. Because the only pattern I see is one of inconsistency. read more

We recently stayed at an Airbnb just around the corner from Simply Bagels. After 3 days I decided to go for a walk in the opposite direction and came across this place. Wow! The bagels are AMAZING but that's just the calling card. You can enjoy an amazing sit down or take out breakfast or lunch. The place is clean and bright. The staff are super friendly. If you're in this area you need to pop in and check it out. read more

A perfect place for a quick and easy breakfast. I enjoy the fresh and homemade cream cheese spread and the bagel selection but they also make delicious breakfast plates and sandwiches. Not very inviting to stay and eat, with limited seating and a thin area for tables, but the food is well worth going for. Also; the menu is very reasonably priced. read more

Simply Bagels - Bagels Near Me - Newark, New Jersey

It's OK, not terrible. For the location it may be the best around, I am not sure. But not a great bagel place. They are not just a bagel place; they sell a variety of foods and basic things like over counter drugs. read more

Fresh $0.50 bagels. Can't get any better than that. They have a variety of bagels but limited flavored cream cheeses.

My husband and I ordered double egg and cheese sandwiches on cinnamon raisin bagels. The bagels were fresh and tasty. The eggs were scrambled just right with the perfect combination of yellow cheese. Our total was less than $10 which is definitely another reason to frequent Simply Bagels again. read more

This is one of the only bagel places in Newark and as a fan of a good bagel with lox and cream cheese and really hoped I would like it. I've tried the onion and garlic bagels and the scallion and lox spreads. Its definitely not a bad bagel; the inside is chewy and dense just like it should be, but its just not that good flavor wise. Same thing with the cream cheese. Nothing to write home about. The cafe itself is nice, clean and spacious and the service is really good as well, unfortunately, the food isn't. read more

The owner/manager has NO RESPECT FOR HIS CUSTOMERS. When his cook is handling food with the same gloves. He is touching pork, beef, Turkey, cheese. Bread all with the same gloves. He told Me that the manager/owner told him not to change gloves, that is not sanitary, or proper way of handling food. I will not be going back there, because the owner/manager was rude and through the Turkey bacon I was ordering on to another grill. That was very disrespectful!!!! read more

They charge you extra to TOAST the BAGEL!!!!! Really?1?! Check your order they hear things you didn't say. Other than that they are the only Bagel Spot on my way to work in Newark. read more

Went in a little skeptical. However, I am very pleased with 1) the service & 2) the bagels. Their bagels seem very authentic. They toast is just right with a generous amount of cream cheese. Overall, very good. Looking foward to trying something other than their bagels. read more

Their bagels are very good but this one day I came in a got a platter with egss,cheese, sausage and pancakes the cook split my cheese in half so one side only cheese on the right side then tried to charge me 50 cents for the other half. I spoke with the manager who offered me a discount for the next time I come in but I don't live in the area so I declined. I asked for my eggs to be cooked right and he said he would then went to the back. I waited and waited until my food was gone and I still had not gotten my eggs. I asked the cashier for the manager and when she went to the back and came back and she said he's not here he left so for that reason I give a 1 star for being so unprofessional and I will make a complaint to the owner and send him a pic of my food. read more

Simply Bagels - The eggs from simply bagels...yuck! - Bagels Near Me - Newark, New Jersey

Fast service! Quality Food! Good Price! Convenient location! Thank you for being efficient!

Grade A Burrito's!!!! Chicken Fingers rocking. love this place.

Every time I come back to N.J. I make a stop for their oatmeal, I am completely obsessed and the staff is so nice!

Been religious to this place since my girlfriend and I first came here a little over a year ago. Best bagels all freshly made right here. Variety of bagels as well as their freshly made cream cheese spreads. And they have delicious choices for lunch too id recommend their burritos they taste really good. Friendly people work here always greet us with smiles and quick service love this place read more

You guys get my lunch order wrong 60% of the time! Why do I give you 4 stars? Breakfast. Because you try your best to keep up with the demanding morning mob and your wheat bagel with vegetable cream cheese is the truth. It's pretty much mayhem during rush hour so I give you credit for your semblance of composure. You always recognize me and are apologetic, but so is the nature of the beast. There's a shortage of good bagels in Newark and it'd be a pity to defame yours.. read more

There seems to be a serious shortage of legit bagel places and places that deliver in Newark, NJ. So when I initially heard of Simply Bagels, my relationship with them was pretty narrow - they delivered breakfast sandwich and Snapple to my apt so I could eat it when hungover and go back to sleep. When I started using a (great!) dry cleaner next door to Simply Bagels I went into their store and tried other foods from the menu. They have bagels as well as sandwiches, salads, pasta, etc., I can attest to the fact that this place sells actual NJ style bagels and its tasty! Their spreads are tasty, I've tried a number of their panini and the American panini is my favorite - I'd highly recommend it. The staff is friendly enough and the prices are pretty low. Warning: Delivery seems to be a problem, they deliver and quickly, but often they have forgotten or mixed up part of my order. read more

I have gone here numerous times for breakfast sandwiches.... I like it....they have turkey bacon...my favorite...and the sandwiches are very filling...omw there this morning as we speak. read more

Pretty solid selection on breakfast sandwiches. My coworkers loved it when I brought in a few. Convenient location with it being right off McCarter (though I would definitely drive there rather than risking walking through those parts). I'll definitely go back. read more

Great food. Awsome selection. Their oatmeal is the best in Newark. Bagels are great too. Would definately recommend this place for anyone driving into Newark for work or to prudential center. They prepare your food right in front if you and friendly service is always in the menu. read more

The bagel with locks here is top notch! Every time I'm in the area I make sure to stop by Simply. They a reasonably priced and super nice! I recommend to everyone! read more

Not satisfied with this place at all. Decided to try it this am for the first time. The bagel was stale. I ordered extra cream cheese but got the amount that Dukin Donuts would give. read more

I had to pick up our payday bagels and unfortunately forgot to pre-order. Thank goodness they were so accommodating I called at 6:50am and was told that they would be able to make over 100 bagels for me and would be ready in 50 minutes. Such a lifesaver and when I brought them in I received calls all day from co-workers telling me how good they were. Definitely will go back. Only thing is when they gave our orders of the different cream cheese, I believe they used the same knife so some cheeses tasted like others. read more

This place is horrible, waited 20 minutes for two bagels with cream cheese, had to ask me 3 times what I wanted. Bagel was horrible, wasn't even toasted, and I wasn't the only one with a messed up order. A sign says we cook beef on a seperate grill but only one grill was visible, used the same cutting board and knife for everything. Bagel tasted like a sausage patty I guess they don't clean their knives. To top it all off the guy couldn't even wrap up the bagels properly. After 5 piece of wax paper and foil, still didn't get it done... Worst place ever!!!!! Bagles tasted like bread. Not even a bagel.... August 25th 2012.. DO NOT GO THERE!!!!!!! read more
