Hard to find good bagels since I am a North Jersey girl. These bagels lacked flavor and were a little on the sweet side. The salt bagel had a lot of salt- which I like but the inside was flavorless. The cinnamon raisin bagel lacked cinnamon and raisins. Still searching for The best bagel in LBI read more

My favorite bagels on LBI! I've been visiting Bagel Shack since I was little and it has never failed to disappoint. Whether you're ordering a pork roll and egg sandwich or a bagel with a simple spread, they've perfected it. Their bagels are soft, yet have a slight crisp to them. You don't even need to get them toasted because they're just that fresh. They're also open for most of the year, so you can get your bagel fix even during the winter months! read more

I'm from north jersey so I know my bagels, this spot is pretty average for a good doughy crunchy bagel. My boyfriend and I got here around lunchtime and got two bagels. We got a Taylor ham egg and cheese and a sesame with veggie cream cheese. Both were a bit underwhelming. The amount of cream cheese on my bagel was almost non existent, definitely wished there was more. Though I will say that the veggie cream cheese itself had a great flavor. The good thing about these sandwiches is that they're small and not too overfilling so it's not a bad idea to bring to the beach. Though I'd probably go with a different choice myself. I'll probably be back because my boyfriend loves this place and I think I'll try some of their Mexican specials instead. The staff was very friendly and everything was out quick. read more

The Bagel Shack is a happening place. I presume for the traditional style NY bagels they offer. They have a nice selection for such a small shop. I had the everything bagel toasted with cream cheese. I liked the bagel but I prefer my bagel shop back here. It is a bit on the doughier side but gets the job done. The iced coffee was just ok. I would try their other drinks next time. There are a few pastries for sale and tons of sandwiches and lunch fare. Next stop to the beach we will try a few more. read more

I stopped by close to closing time and was happy that there were still bagels available. Ordered the everything bagel with olive cream cheese - which was delicious and just what I was looking for.

We ordered a dozen bagels with spread, two pork roll egg cheese sandwiches, and a hash brown. Our Dasher shows up to explain that the store said everything "wasn't paid for". Already disappointed that I'd have to contact Doordash customer support, the pork roll sandwich was quite disappointing in taste. I was unable to eat the hash brown as it had some kind of plastic or silicone aftertaste to it. read more

The WORST customer service I have ever experienced. do not order a gluten free bagel at this place. they took the gluten free bagel, placed it directly on the counter where they cut the regular bagels with the same knife they cut the regular bagels with. I mentioned that wasn't ok, they said oh, well if you have an allergy, if you got a sandwich, we would send it to the back. I said, if you cut it on a separate surface (like a plate) with a clean knife, it would be fine. I just don't want it rubbed in gluten. All of the staff said that oh, well, this place has gluten all over it, we can't do that. Train your staff better, and teach them better customer service. shame on you. read more

Great place in Beach Haven with lots of options. They have a variety of bagels and for the Jersey Shore they're pretty good, not as good as a New York bagel but way better then bakery or the dreaded Dunkin' bagel (please). They have lots of options from cream cheese spreads to egg, Cheese & meat sandwiches. Yes they have Taylor Ham. If you're not a fan of bagels you can also get a wrap. The coffee is good and they have seating outside. You can even call in your oder ahead and pick it up at the window. The people working there are very polite and work fast to get your order completed and the prices are pretty good for LBI. read more

Decent little bagel shop. Fairly affordable given it's on a tourist island on the east coast. The breakfast sandwich I ordered was good, but nothing to write home about. Coffee was decent, but also nothing special. They've got a few other things on the menu too like omelettes and burritos. The service was efficient and staff were friendly enough. Small joint. If it's busy you'll probably wait outside, which is isn't a problem if the weather is nice. They have a cozy, clean, outdoor seating area that is shaded with nice tables. read more

Awful customer service!! Ordered online and when we picked up and got the order home we saw that a couple items were missing or incorrect. We called and the girl was totally rude, she wouldn't tell me her name bc 'she didn't know what I would do with it' basically I wanted to know who I was talking to. I started explaining the situation again and she cut me off and I yelled how rude she was being and she hung up. My husband ended up walking over with his wrap that had spinach in it when that wasn't in the description to ask them and she said the cook thought it looked plain so they 'added' extra. Yet a breakfast wrap with egg whites looks fine as plain as it was. As it turned out she apologized for the phone call but we explained you can't say you put the order together yourself and it was correct when you have no idea. Needless to say if you go there you MUST check your order before you get home. I will not be returning. read more

The flavors were a little bland and the chicken was cut too thick, which made it less enjoyable to eat. The home fries that came with it were also disappointing -- they seemed reheated rather than freshly made, and just didn't have that crisp, flavorful kick you hope for at a breakfast spot. My friends had different dishes, but their reactions were similar -- nothing terrible, but nothing memorable either. We all left feeling like the food was a little underwhelming overall. The bathroom was serviceable but not especially clean, and while the service was fine, it wasn't anything that stood out as particularly attentive or warm. On the positive side, the decor was pleasant and gave the place a nice atmosphere. Honestly, that was probably the highlight of the experience for me. If Yelp allowed half-star ratings, I'd give it a 3.5 just for the vibe. All in all, Chicken & Egg isn't a bad place, but it didn't really impress. With so many options around, it's not somewhere I'd rush back to, but I wouldn't call it a total miss either -- more middle of the road.

There was also an herb butter present on the fish. The piece of fish was on the smaller end but cooked ideally. The flavor was alright. The butter was tasted, but not enough seasoning was present on the fish. It tasted a little bland. The two sides also lacked in quantity. The avocado shrimp was also just decent. I also tried a crab cake, which was rather large. Again, this was not bad. Three more items I tried were scallop risotto, coconut rice and the old beach haven spaghetti. Yet again, all three were okay, but the spaghetti definitely was the preferred choice. The scallops were not cooked the best and was plain too as well as the coconut rice. Will I go back? Possibly.

Weather has been crappy here all week so we were able to get a table immediately. I love that it's BYOB here both to save a little money and to bring wine we know we're going to love. We were seated at the same table as last year (odd coincidence) and started looking over the menu when they brought over an ice bucket for our wine (a nice Italian rosé). For appetizers my daughter and I both got a bowl (you heard me, a bowl) of the best clam chowder I've had on the Island, the rest of the crowd had wedge salads or house salads. I'm not exaggerating when I say it's the best clam chowder I've had here...not even close. This year I went with the seafood scampi special - shrimp, crab, and scallops over angel hair. Wifey had the stuffed shrimp special, my son had the salmon picatta, daughter had the shrimp pomodoro, and her fiancé had the grilled salmon. Five meals of perfection. Just the right serving size, excellent flavors, great service. Keep in mind they don't take reservations so on a normal night we would have waited. Also, limited parking so pay attention to the signs on the streets. This is a great place to eat, but it can get a little loud inside. 100% recommend! P.s. my son lost his ear buds here tonight, but when he called they had already found them and put them aside for him. We just stopped by on the way back from Bay Village and picked them up.
