My husband introduced me to Strathmore Bagels several years ago. He used to frequent this establishment all the time when he was living in Brentwood. I immediately became a fan as well. Believe it or not, but I've never actually had a bagel here, but boy do they make a hell of a sandwich! I've had both breakfast sandwiches as well as deli sandwiches and I'm hooked. For breakfast, I order egg and cheese on a roll with ketchup. It's always cooked to perfection. For lunch, I order a turkey sandwich with provolone, lettuce, tomato, and mayonnaise on a roll. The lunch sandwiches come with your choice of macaroni salad, potato salad, or cole slaw. I tend to switch between macaroni salad and potato salad, but I think the potato salad is better IMO. My only complaint is that the rolls are topped with poppy seeds which aren't my favorite, but the rolls are just so fresh that I'm willing to overlook that. Great sandwich shop! You won't be disappointed. read more

Under new management the people are very nice. They have 20% off so everything is cheap for now. The food is good not the best but I like it because they have turkey bacon. The ambiance is bright big for one or your family. It's in a great location read more

The food was amazing. When I walk into the place I noticed some stains on the ceiling, and the service was pretty decent. Just some stains.

Definitely the worst bagels. Not quality at all. There was hair in one of the sandwiches I ordered. Service was horrible, slow and rude. Place actually looks dirty as well, not surprising. Maybe sometimes it's okay not to support local businesses. Also the napkins were clearly stepped on and given to us. 0/10 do not recommend read more

I used to go here for many years growing up as a kid all the way into adulthood. I have to say, the previous owners were amazing and the staff was wonderful. You can go in and order something, minimal wait and be on your way. I've been back several times after change of ownership just to notice it's become worse and worse every single time. I'm sorry, but no regulars go there anymore. It's like a ghost town inside, all the cooks & staff left the place, idk for what reasons but it just shows something is wrong. I went in to order a breakfast sandwich today and there was one other person in there with me...I waited 20minutes for a bacon egg and cheese sandwich, along with at the end of the 20minutes, them telling me they don't have pastrami anymore for my 2nd sandwich. Would've been nice to know that when they first took my order. Anyways, 20min wait time with no one in there is just crazy! What a waste of time for a horrible sandwich at that. I officially will not come here ever again, it's sad it came to this but this place is ready to go down in the dumps. read more

I wanted a cup of decaf coffee. Came to this bagel shop. Decided to order a bagel with egg and cheese also.Their two pot coffee is behind the counter- no self serve. Once my bagel was ready, I asked for the decaf coffee. They don't serve decaf coffee at all! So now I had to pay for the egg sandwich and couldn't get the type of coffee I came in for! read more

Grew up in Brentwood I am 32 now don't always go to this place but when I do it is more on the expensive side, Service used to be great when I was a kid but every time I go there and order now they never listen to my order clearly and then tell me after the sandwich is made or during making of the sandwich that I never told them, for the price the service really sucks read more

So funny that I ran into Strathmore again today in a rush for breakfast. Got the same thing as last time and , having forgotten my previous comments, was surprised by the $5+ cost of my breakfast. All the other comments are unchanged so nothing really new to report. only thought it was interesting to reread my last review in light of my miserly reaction to the cash register. read more

I used to like this place until today. We ordered toasted bagels and a platter with home fries and they screwed everything up! None of the bagels were toasted and the home fries were old. I drove back to tell the owner and then she started lying saying that we ordered over 2 hours ago when it was less than 30 minutes that we left. They replaced my food and I never even got an apology. Unfortunately, they lost my business. I'll go somewhere else that will appreciate my business read more

I've come here a few times and their bagels are delicious and super fresh. One time they got our order mixed and the owner was super super sweet about it. If you buy a dozen bagels you get 2 free which is petty awesome and cost effective if you have 6 people to feed. read more

Not the best, not awful... ok in a pinch. Just an average deli that makes so-so bagels. They do seem to get alot of traffic. BE WARNED: if eating in, the tables are broken and wobbly. It's only a matter of time before someone leans on one while eating and spills a hot coffee into their lap. Or worse, onto their child. #callmylawyer read more

I started coming to this location about two months ago. The food is good. The bagel selection is fair. No standout item or service. The service is slow. They do get really visit. The staff is friendly, courteous and professional. Although those all are great qualities, it hinders the speed of the service. read more

Strathmore is a good choice for a neighborhood Bagel Spot. Definitely a no frills sort of place, with limited options outside of the traditional Bacon, eggs and cheese on a roll or bagel. Reason I say that is, I wanted slightly healthier options for my breakfast sandwich ( i.e. avocado and turkey sausage) and neither were available. I ended up with scooped out bagel ( per my request) with egg whites, bacon, and a slice of tomato. The bacon had the perfect crisp to it and the bagel was indeed fresh. Would go back for a quick bite! read more

Meh, I've experienced much better. I have heard great things about the other Strathmore locations further out east, but this location is clearly providing only the bare-minimum to the customer. You know those bagel shops where you walk in and you immediately smell fresh bagels, and your mind is overwhelmed by the breathtaking sight of bins filled with fresh bagels and a dazzling display of various other food items? Well, this is not one of those bagel shops. This is bare bones. There is no smell of fresh bagels. There are a minimum of bagel options, and the bagel baskets are half-filled to nearly empty, not overflowing. Some flavors weren't even available at all. This is an hour after opening time on a weekday, when the place only as couple of customers in it. So, I ordered as best I could. I had to modify my order because certain flavors of bagels were not available. I also had to stick with regular spreads because they had a limited number of flavored spreads, because some of the bins for the spreads were empty. This location also does not offer the same baker's dozen of 6 extra bagels like the other Strathmore locations do. Their baker's dozen includes just 2 extra bagels. How were the bagels? They were mediocre at best. They didn't taste fresh, and they didn't seem baked properly, as they were a bit too soft on the outside. Also the flavorings were light. I definitely do not plan to return to this bagel shop ever again. This was the lousiest bagel shop I have ever experienced in my 40 or so years of living on Long Island, and having had bagels from all over the place. I am giving this place two stars only because the bagels were still edible, and the basic cream cheese was ok, and the store employees were ok. Nothing bad happened, but nothing good happened, either. read more

French toast....and soft bagels they are under staffed and usually overwhelmed but the product is always consistent and good. Bagels do not come with enough cream cheese so just ask for extra. read more

bagels were average, overpriced for no reason. Paid $19 for a chicken cutlet and a hungry man bagels.

This place has several locations around this area. I stopped in on a recommendation and I was sorry that I wasted my time. Had an everything bagle with cream cheese, it was below average. You can find better bagles in the grocery store. Not recommended. read more

A neighborhood gem. Good bagels, good breakfast. I can't lie, their prices seem so high now. I've gotten a bigger bang for my buck elsewhere. I'll still come, though. read more

Fresh bagels good like any other spot. Also had a bacon egg and cheese which was pretty good with the bacon being extra crispy staff was nice but seemed unhappy probably due to rude customers overall great visit I wouldn't mind stopping by again. read more

The bagels and other sandwiches are good, they give you free coffee or hot chocolate when you buy a bagel or sandwich in the morning, but the prices may be too much read more

This bagel shop has been here way before I even moved in to my current location over ten years ago and what can I say I'm a fan. Like another user said I've gotten better sandwiches at different locations, but the bagels here have a place in my heart (and stomach of course). For those around the neighborhood this place is just home. With so many places being shut down and renovated into Walgreens and gas stations it's refreshing to have your local business be, well local. read more

If I could give this place zero stars I would. Stay away especially if you don't feel like getting treated like garbage. Went in to this establishment after soccer with my child to get Tom breakfast. Walked in and the place was pure chaos. So I finally placed my order and was told the sesame bagels were going to be an extra 5 minutes. So I waited about 30 min if not longer for my food. Finally get up to the register lady was going to charge me and I told her I needed a dozen bagels as well. Needless to say the guy who took my order got an attitude and told me well I told you it was going to take five more minutes. Really after waiting half hour. Mmmm something doesn't add up. I started arguing he was arguing with me and I left everything at the register. Hope the owner reads this. When hiring personnel please make sure they are not ghetto second class citizens that treat your customers like shit and treat the people they do now before anyone else. My son then told me mom he called you a loser. Really I'm the loser but a grown ass man who obviously doesn't own the store works in a bagel store. Mmmmmm. Let me see who the real loser is. I would rather travel two towns over for bagels than deal with this shithole of a business every again. I work to hard for my money to be treated like shit. No thanks this place needs to be shut down. read more

Pretty good fresh bagels. Service is pretty fast also. Very popular breakfast spot with the guys at work. The food is good but nothing special. Place is not visually appealing but for a bagel shop it is fine. Keep it simple here norhing crazy and you will be happy. read more

The prices are out rageous for such basic food. I caught the owner who always rings customers up double tax and triple if you use a credit or debit card I couldnt believe what I was seeing, pay attention to the numbers not just the total. Food was ok just took a while best to call ahead but phone is usally busy. Wish the old owner would come back!!! read more

Great bagels, friendly staff and fast. Secondly time coming here and I will continue as long as I live in Brentwood NY

I started coming here since the age of 7 with my parents and continued until now (32). My wife, child and I decided to go for breakfast here today and got treated horribly, I was in the register about to pay for my food and the cook walked over to say "what's with your attitude" I never had an attitude I simply was explaining my order and then the owner wanted me to pay but the cook continued to have an attitude so then I immediately dediced it was time to get my family out of that negative atmosphere and told them this was my last time coming here so the cook replied "don't bother coming back" I am still so confused as to why I got treated the way I did read more

i personally LOVE their bagels. They make the BEST bagels ever. They are really soft and the breakfast sandwiches are just amazing. Chichken salad is JUST.....SO...GOOD....! read more

I don't why go get breakfast here.....expensive service is rude and they all seem aggravated I've even seen arguments amongst themselves

Read the Yelp reviews before going here and no, I don't understand the reviews here that are below 4 stars. This place is one of those places in the neighborhood that attracts people from other towns to come, either during morning commute, quick bite, going back home, etc. Favorite had to be Heart Smart during breakfast. Their burgers are pretty solid, too, during lunch. Their bagels are always on point. The best of all? Prices are way cheaper than any other bagel places, like Bagel Boss. read more
