I ordered the keto special short stack with side of bacon, home fries and a large caramel iced coffee and I was super impressed. The packaging was amazing. The food arrived hot this was my first time ever ordering from this place. I've never physically gone to the location, but through DoorDash and there quality of food I can tell I will be going again. Thank you ! read more

The Bagel Store - I got the keto special as well as the short stack with three pieces of bacon, a side of home fries - Bagels Near Me - Carlstadt, New Jersey

Was welcomed my a woman in the front . I ordered a bagel with butter and some mini muffins. The place has a lot of sales and big signs . Looks clean and put together. The pick up side is organized. I would def come back to try a sandwich and will review again . The butter didn't have much flavor but leaked all over the paper bag but I guess that's what happens with butter lol . read more

I just didn't care for this place at all. The everything bagel was on the saltier side. The scallion cream cheese was very onion-y taste and crunch. Bagel was tough at that. It just wasn't my cup of tea but maybe it's yours. Staff wasnt too friendly either. I don't even think a "hi" was said she just stared at me until I spoke. Mind you she was doing something so i was giving her time to finish what she was doing but she just stared at me. Really weird experience. Not really a fan of the bagels. Cant say I would be back read more

The service was quick and the food was very well priced. They have $2 any size ice coffee which is great. It's small inside so it's all take out. It wasn't the best THEC I've had but the bagel was soft and it was super tasty! Normally I only eat half my THEC but I demolished this in 5 minutes which makes me feel like it was smaller than normal.. or maybe It was just that good read more

A definite must for breakfast! The bagels and rolls taste fresh and soft. The breakfast sandwiches are so good and are filling. The iced coffee was really good too and a great price. The lox was fresh too, definitely should try that. The chocolate chip muffin was delicious, perfect amount of sweetness. The hash browns were soft, not crispy at all which I prefer so I wouldn't order that again but I'll definitely be back for the breakfast sandwiches and iced coffee. read more

This place has always been horrible for me. The bagels are tasteless, and they overload them with pounds of butter and cream cheese. Same goes for any of their sandwiches. Personally, I just don't like them and won't be coming back. read more

This is my wife and I's go to bagel spot near our home. The parking can be a bit of a struggle sometimes since it is street parking on a busy street. Inside it is your typical bagel spot with the normal options. We love the bagels and cream cheese from here. The prices are also great, and they often have specials for bagels. The only thing that lacks sometimes is the service. The people are always friendly, but sometimes it does take a bit longer just for a bagel than it probably should. However, for me it is worth the wait because the bagels are some of the best in the area! read more

The Bagel Store delivers that classic Jersey energy--starting with a guy yelling into his phone on the stoop, like a scene straight out of a movie. The whole vibe screams local, but they surprisingly take credit cards, which is a bonus. I grabbed the bacon, egg, and cheese on a whole wheat bagel (untoasted, as God intended), and it absolutely hit. Everything was melty and balanced--the kind of sandwich that doesn't need frills to be perfect. That double chocolate chip muffin? Unreal. Crispy edges, soft and chewy in the middle, rich but not over the top. Just pure satisfaction. Honestly, it stole the show. Parking's a bit of a lottery, but we got lucky. And even though I forgot to ask for ketchup on my wife's bagel, she still enjoyed every bite. That says a lot. Foil-wrapped goodness, napkins everywhere, a receipt tossed aside--no pretense, just proper bagels. California could never. This spot understands what breakfast should be: fast, messy, flavorful, and totally satisfying. Would absolutely go back, next time with ketchup. read more

The Bagel Store - Bacon Bacon, 2 Eggs, and Cheese Sandwich (whole wheat) - Bagels Near Me - Carlstadt, New Jersey

Unless you're a regular don't bother.... I went here and order a breakfast sandwich thinking let's try a new place. What a mistake.... The five people behind got their breakfast sandwiches before me. The sandwich wasn't spectacular. I'll definitely have to think twice before coming here again... read more

Ordered a bagel and a hash brown from here today via DoorDash, requested a scooped-out bagel, and foolishly expected the bagel to at least be from today. What I received was a stale, unscooped bagel with such a little amount of cream cheese that it might as well have been dry. The hash brown was way undercooked, falling apart just trying to pick it up. There are too many good bagel shops in the area to waste your time with this mediocrity. You'd be better off with a sleeve of Lender's and a tub of Philly from the supermarket. read more

The Bagel Store - Bagel with Scallion Cream Cheese - Bagels Near Me - Carlstadt, New Jersey

The quality of the food is excellent. I am deducting one star because my past 2 orders have arrived incorrectly. I pay extra for cheese on a wrap and they have left the cheese off of 4 sandwiches. Aside from the cheese making the sandwich 100% better, the up charge for cheese is $1.50 per sandwich, not an insignificant amount of money. read more

Good bagels but the service could be friendlier for sure, I feel like I'm a bother everytime I come in

Very slowwwwwwwwwwwwwww. Nice people but not professional . It was a waste of time to order online and arrive there and wait an extra 30 min read more

Decent breakfast and lunch spot. We DoorDash from here a lot and it's consistently good. Everything tastes fresh and is packaged well! read more

The Bagel Store - Italian Supreme Sub Sandwich - Bagels Near Me - Carlstadt, New Jersey

I stopped here this morning on the way to a friend's house and wish I would've gone somewhere else. I ordered an everything bagel TOASTED and it's definitely not toasted at all. I also ordered a side of home fries which are flavorless. But the best part is I'm sitting here in my car eating them with my fingers because they don't give you any kind of utensils or napkins at all. It's a good thing I have napkins in my car but a fork or spoon would've been nice to be able to eat these properly. With the lack of flavor or taste in any of this food I would not go back to this place again, then add no utensils or napkins... hard pass. Go elsewhere. Waste of $12 read more

Yep. Just gna leave this post here.. Half piece of Bacon , egg and cheese which I had to take a photo, this is a what the f moment.. i dont knownwho the hell put my bagel together . Ive been coming here for years and ive always run into an issue here, wheter its smushed bagels which I saw the young lady choosing the worst bagels for me as I noticed her scrambling to the back of the bagel bin instead of the one in the front, borderline disrespected... as an in towner of Carlstadt that supports local business , this is poor practice and not acceptable. Place is runned by high schoolers on the weekend with ZERO customer retention and lack of empathy. Sorry, but not sorry. read more

The Bagel Store - HALF OF BACON - Bagels Near Me - Carlstadt, New Jersey

Used to come to this establishment many times, on weekends, after driving to the airport at 6am. What I noticed, the prices went up to a ridiculous amount for a bagel with cream cheese...and the quality went down... You hardly got any cream cheese for the price. Employees aren't that nice either. So ridiculous prices, and not nice employees, I took my money elsewhere. read more

Been purchasing bagels from here for years. The staff here is friendly and very tasty bagels. Family favorites are everything, cinnamon raisin and plain. read more

Consistently delicious food at a great price! This is one of my favorite bagel locations, and if you're from New Jersey, you know the competition is tough. Their bagel-to-sandwich ratio has always been spot on and I always happy with my food. The interior is tiny and the wait can get pretty long, but it's the perfect place to grab bagels and sandwiches to go for breakfast or lunch. I recommend calling ahead and your food will be ready in 15 or less, waiting on the counter for you when you arrive. I do have to take away a star because I have had a few instances where my order was wrong or I was missing a bagel, but they've always been so kind and quick to fix it. It's a hot spot for the locals and I understand the craziness! read more

Ok I'm adding an extra star. I have no idea how the math worked out. We got bagels, 1.5 lbs cream cheese, and three coffees with tax for $42? That's an amazing deal. I thought we ordered 2 dozen but I'm trying to count them out and we must have gotten 3 dozen for the price of 2. Am I taking crazy pills? How am I going to sleep tonight? read more

The Bagel Store - Some menu action - Bagels Near Me - Carlstadt, New Jersey

I haven't been here in quite awhile so a few weeks ago I decided to get a garden salad with a scoop of the chicken salad. I know prices have gone up everywhere but $15.00 for a bowl of lettuce, tomatoes, onions and a scoop of chicken salad is just way too much. I guess that was the last time buying from here. Otherwise the food is really good. read more

I love this local mom and pop bagel joint. I always order a breakfast sandwich from them and it's always top notch. A delicious egg white garden omelette on a toasted whole wheat everything bagel is where it's at. My husband loves their multigrain bagels and will order a taylor ham and cheese on a toasted multigrain bagel. Their home fries are also delicious. Sometimes I'll bring home a french toast bagel and slather some cream cheese on it. So good! Their sandwiches are a good size and are always filling. Their coffee leaves a little to be desired, but it is what it is. It's a small store, with about 4 bar seats by the window inside. When the weather is nicer they have a few tables outside. I usually take my order to go. Depending on the day and time you arrive, service can be very slow (especially during the mornings on a weekend). I'm usually not in a rush, so it's fine by me. They have a $10 credit card minimum, so have some cash ready if you are only ordering a sandwich. read more

Honestly, I've never waited 25 minutes for one bacon egg and cheese sandwich until I came here. The sandwich wasn't very good, as the bacon was full of fat I had to throw it out but eggs are eggs so I ate that for $5. Also, it was super skimpy on food- prob one egg and 1/2 a piece of cheese if that. The worst part was the wait. I understand being busy on a Sunday morning, but they need more staff in the back making the food instead of most in the front taking orders. I won't return. read more

The Bagel Store - Bacon Egg & Cheese On a Roll. SPK & Orange Juice - Bagels Near Me - Carlstadt, New Jersey

I've stopped in here a few times to grab bagels on my way to work, and the service is always quick. Today, we ordered two breakfast sandwiches for delivery and they were quickly delivered and delicious, exactly as ordered. The pork roll was stacked on my sandwich, so that was awesome. The only criticism I can think of is that the home fries lack salt and pepper, which is an easy fix. Otherwise, will definitely order again. read more

I am probably one of the rare people in the US who does not like ketchup. To me it covers up the flavors of what you are eating. I absolutely hate ketchup on eggs. If you do not like ketchup on your egg sandwiches DO NOT go to this bagel store. It has happened to me too many times, I don't like to complain. But I lost count of the number of times when specifically stating NO ketchup it has ketchup. Often I just just give it to my son because he does like his egg sandwich with ketchup. The last 3 times I ordered it was wrong and my son said to call them and reorder it. Yes, they replace it when I call and its wrong but when its nasty out its annoying. My son thinks its the way place the order but when asked about salt pepper ketchup "I say salt pepper". I have also said specifically NO ketchup but that seems to mean more ketchup. If you don't like ketchup don't go here or check each sandwich before you leave the place. With covid most of us are ordering take out & unwrapping your food before reaching home means it get cold quicker. read more

My 3 star review is based strictly on the fact that the store never seems to have everything that's listed as available on the website. I've ordered through UE like 3-4 times now and each time there was something they didn't have--whether it be the tea I selected or the bagel choice and they swapped it for something else without consultation. It just would be nice if they could update the site in advance if the stock is low or give the customer the option to select 'Cancel order if not available' so that we know what we are getting in advance of it arriving and then being disappointed when it isn't what we asked for. This will be my last time ordering. Food is good but I like to decide what I pay for and ultimately, will eat. read more

Every time I go up to Jersey, this place is my morning go to. The bagels are baked fresh, and their sandwiches are simply tasty! They also have homemade salads and cream cheese to choose from. Highly recommend this to anyone in the area! read more

The Bagel Store - Taylor ham, egg & cheese on a poppy - Bagels Near Me - Carlstadt, New Jersey

Are the bagels good? Yes. But what matters to me is service... I have been going here for a year now, I just moved to Carlstadt a little over a year ago. I went in this morning and ordered some breakfast, my number was 184. I went outside to have a smoke and drink my coffee, I wasn't even 5 minutes. I went back inside and asked the nice lady behind the pick up counter if the "keto meal" was ready, the woman said "no not yet" so I sat back down to wait. Not a big deal. Then I hear this other woman yelling out "194! 194!" so I figure, maybe... just maybe she has the numbers wrong. So I go up to the counter and I go "Is that the keto meal?" and she says to me "Yes! I've been calling you for over 5 minutes!" So I stay calm through her rudeness and I said "Well, they said it wasn't ready yet, and it's 184" and she goes "Same thing, i've been yelling for you and it's been sitting here." Ok... I said "Alright, I am here now, it's not that big of a deal, you have a good day...thanks." I took my food and I left. The woman who was rude is a short, stocky blonde older woman. I am more than sure she was rude to me because I look young- I look REALLY young, I could pass for a highschooler. I am in my mid thirties by the way. OR, she is just a hateful woman. Honestly that woman was such a turn off for me at this place, usually they hire such great and personable people who are always friendly but this woman... it just makes me not want to go back. read more

I love bagels and so I try any new bagel shop any chance I get. This is certainly the definition of your local bagel shop as it is located in a residential area but you cannot miss it. Was visiting a nearby school for work and I dropped by for breakfast (cream cheese bagel and coffee). Pumpkin coffee they had was delicious and the bagel I had (wheat) with veggie cream cheese did not disappoint. They had a bacon cream cheese which certainly peaked my interest so you can bet I will be back soon especially that they are so close to home. read more

We 1st ordered from here in 2020 thru Uber Eats and the food was great. So we ordered again today, spent $40 for 2 pancake platters and a ham and cheese omelette with home fries. Let's talk about this for a minute. This absolutely was the WORST breakfast that we've had in this area. The pancakes were super thick (not fluffy) and tasted like dry dense bread with no flavor. The omelette barely had any ham in it. Now let's address the home fries. How is it possible to make potatoes taste like dry powder? I don't know but somehow they figured it out. Now let's talk about the sausage and bacon. The sausage tasted off, had a medicine type taste. Again, how is that possible. The bacon was super soggy even though it's advertised as "crispy" bacon. We were super hungry and that meal made our appetites completely disappear because it was inedible. We understand there is a pandemic and we support all of our local businesses whenever we can. But at the same time, where is the integrity?? Someone had to sign off on this meal before it left the shop. This is clearly not the same cook from last year - - you need to find him/her. If they care about their food reputation, the owner should respond to this review. read more

The bagels are terrible and 95% of the staff are so rude, last visit on Sunday, there was a worker already helping someone, and two girls doing nothing, who no doubt saw me. When my time came up to the order, another patron came in. While I placed my order, the girls who ignored me,said to this gentleman can we help you, in a matter of 10 seconds. I placed an order for two cream cheese bagels and it still took them 5 minutes to do it! The place was dead, I begrudgingly go here as my last go to place, because of the holier than thou attitudes and bagels being trash. But after this I'm done with this joint. Terrible service, once in awhile. But always always terrible attitudes except for one lady. And they've always been this way since they opened. How they lasted this long is beyond me! read more

I'm super glad this place is right down the block from me. The omelet sandwiches are consistently great, and the prices for said sandwiches are STUPID low. One problem: service time for breakfast sandwiches is twice as long as you would expect. The solution: Call ahead. there's a separate counter for pickups for people in the know about the wait time. I also recommend coming 5 minutes earlier than their estimated wait to avoid your sandwich getting steamed and soggy in those foil wraps. Also, they're not very accurate with their pickup times. Honestly, I think if they improved the wait time they could increase prices and still double their customer base. There is just no other serious contenders in the area read more

Second best bagels in the area. I still think that if you want a 1/2 doz or a dozen bagels, you are better off taking the ride up to Goldberg's in HH but if you want a breakfast of lunch sandwich on a bagel, this place is fine. In fact, better than fine as they make a nice sandwich. I'm not a coffee drinker so I can't really say but my caffeine junky wife tells me the coffee here is "just OK." read more

The Bagel Store - Bagels Near Me - Carlstadt, New Jersey

I moved in the area this past month and was CRAZY excited to try this place based on its Yelp reviews. FYI and a heads up--this review will be mostly based on my experience with the service of this place. Went in on a somewhat (but not really) busy Saturday/Sunday AM. I walked and followed the line. When it was my turn, the girl at the counter totally IGNORED ME AND SKIPPED ME. She looked right at me (I mean, I was clearly standing in line, how can you miss me?! I am not that small!) and proceeded to smile politely, greet and take the order from the lady behind/next to me. ????? I said, "excuse me, I was next in line" her response? "Oh. What do you want?" I ordered quickly and then waited aside. I waited A LONG TIME, because I was CLEARLY seeing other customers who had come in after me get their bigger orders before me. Figure that one out... I was bothered, to say the least. Not cool. I had a few other things (drinks in hand) when she was ringing me up. She disgustingly looked up at me and rang up the drinks as I was holding them. Had I not placed them on the counter, muttering a sarcastic "You're good!" I am convinced she wouldn't have bothered to offer me a bag... SIGH. Oh and the bagels? TASTED LIKE FROZEN BAGELS. AND my order was messed up - NO lox on my bagel. (Mind you, I am sure I paid for it, and lox isn't exactly cheap.) OKAY--so a recap: shitty service, unimpressive food quality AND a messed-up order. SUH-WEEEEEET. Why would I want to come here again?! read more

A really excellent bagel that had the perfect ratio of chewiness and texture. Had it with veggie cream cheese and was impressed.

By far the best Bagel shop in Carlstadt! I normally go to a closer deli to my house but today and once before I missed the breakfast times at my normal deli. Good for me and my visiting friends that The Bagel Store has breakfast all day. The staff at this store is friendly - smiling and bushy tailed. I had a egg bagel with cream cheese and lox - my best friend had a French toast special; we were both very happy with our orders. This Bagel shop is now my normal bagel store and I think it should be yours too =) Happy eating! read more
