I always pass by this place, and finally decided to try it. It did not disappoint. First of all,…read morethe bagels are HUGE. I got an Asiago bagel which was not quite the texture I was expecting. It was pretty airy. My mom got the everything bagel and said it was very good. We both just got bagels toasted with butter and found the prices reasonable. I also got a cheese empanada because it was on the menu and I was curious. It was delicious. Perfectly cooked. Service was okay, but we had to wait quite awhile for what we ordered. I wouldn't recommend eating here as there is limited seating.

Great service, loved their variety of different cream cheeses, I recommend their chive spread…read more Salmon was fresh, generous with their portions. Bathroom is clean and well kept up. They offer sandwiches, paninis, burgers, salads, and more. Good lunch/ breakfast spot. Would come again, thanks.

The individual behind the…read morecounter was really attentive to our needs and went above and beyond to help our little baby who was quite warm due to the hot weather. Didn't catch their name...but thank you!! We got three donuts (sourdough chai, mocha, and vanilla sprinkle), an iced tea, an Arnold Palmer, a latte, and fig and walnut sourdough bread. We ate outside under the shade. Will definitely be back!

I really wanted to like it here but it fell short of our expectations…read more The matcha latte was great. However the cookies and cream donut was way too sweet and not good at all. Plus there were flies inside. The service was fine but we definitely won't be coming back.

Some of the reviews say "this place doesn't understand the customer service industry" which is just…read morewild because BTB has been here my whole life, serving up good bagels and sandwiches at competitive prices. The people who work and own it are old school North Jersey -- the types of people who you see increasingly less of as yuppies price them out of town. It's not chic, bougie or self-consciously trying to be something other than what it is, which is a to-go breakfast/lunch spot, so I guess that's disorienting to people who are used to viral sandwich shops with grass walls or whatever. They make great breakfast sandwiches and are decent people. What do you want, a kiss on the lips? Go back to Brooklyn if you don't like it.

I would give zero stars if I could. Cleanliness is the issue here. While I ordered my bagel, the…read morelady wiped the corners of her crusty lips I was about to say "are you washing your hands" but as soon as I opened my mouth she pulled out gloves. That's ok but not great. I went to check on my dog that was tied up outside. Two minutes later I walk back in and the gloves were off and she was handling my food. I just paid the $5 and threw it out. The service was also very bad!

Plaza bagels, formally Punk Rock bagels is fantastic. Even…read morewhen there's a line, it moves quickly. You can see them making bagels all day right in house. They have mini bagels, flat bagels, and all the fun flavors. Tons of different cream cheese to choose from. They give a good amount without it feeling like a huge glob block. All the staff is nice. Old metal heads. Cool to see old music memorabilia on the walls.. someone must be from New Orleans too because there's a lot of saints and New Orleans stuff. (Hard to find those Zapp chips up here) Cash or card. Parking lot. Full grill. More than you asked for.

Plaza Bagels makes some of the best bagels around. And that's saying something considering all of…read morethe fantastic bagel spots in North Jersey. I'm a big everything bagel guy (and either with BEC or with just plain untoasted with butter). They always have some fun variations on the typical everything bagel. Love when they have the Asiago Everything available - what a treat! Tons of cheese melted on top and it just goes really well with whatever you pair it with. Been going here now and then for years. Not always the easiest spot to get parking (the lot can fill up for sure) and sometimes there's a wait, but the bagels are always super fresh and delicious. Highly recommended if you're in the Clifton area or coming through and need a bite. Just realize there are no tables or anything, so you may have to bring home or eat in your car!

Went on a Monday morning (holiday) and it wasn't super packed. They have plenty of seating inside…read moreand it's right across from a park so, even more seating if you'd like to sit out there. I got an everything bagel with eggs, and a plain bagel with lox and cream cheese - I had ordered the plain one with lox cream cheese, however, they gave me lox AND cream cheese, which was $5 more expensive, turning out to be $10 for one bagel. The everything bagel with eggs was okay, nothing out of this world but not a bad bagel. Both came out to $15 and change. It's alright, but not the best.

I don't recall the last time I gave a one star on a review. However, this place deserves no more…read morethan one. I went in for a Taylor, ham egg and cheese with salt, pepper, and ketchup on a toasted onion bagel. The bagel was barely toasted. The egg was decently cooked, but the cheese was not melted at all. They did not add salt, pepper or ketchup. The Taylor ham was the absolute worst of it all. It was literally gray! I cannot believe that this was served to me. I am thankful that I always take a good look at my food. I came by a few months ago for a toasted bagel with butter, and I was also disappointed. The bagel was decent, but the butter would not melt? It tasted almost plastic like. Unfortunately, I will not return to this establishment for food.

Absolutely unacceptable experience…read more I called around 8am to place an order and asked for both sandwiches to be made without cheese -- a very basic request. Instead of a simple yes or no, I was told they "couldn't do that" that next time i need to order the right thing and then hung up on mid-sentence. When i tried to call back the phone was disconnected. Hanging up on a customer for asking for no cheese is wild. It's not about the request -- it's about the attitude and lack of basic customer service. I make an effort to support small businesses, but respect goes both ways. Opening your doors just to be rude to customers is not it. I won't be coming back.

This was one of those reviews where it was a true 3 1/2 stars but since we can't select 1/2 a star…read moreI had to decide whether I rounded up or down ... so down it was. The reasons for rounding down and not up are pretty simple. The place itself has random slabs of wood and TV boxes laying around and the dust on the wires to their illuminated window sign and the fan next to it looks like it was growing since 1997. Plus, there's 4 people behind the counter engaged in their own conversation and meanwhile I'm just standing at the counter waiting to be helped. Aaaaaand bc there's no menu on the wall like you find in most bagel shops and delis ... but here they just have 2 paper menus taped to the lower half of their walls. If the bagels weren't as good as they are this would've easily been a 2 star review, but there's no debating that they make really solid and large bagels! They also stuff the bagel sandwiches decently and once you order it's ready pretty quickly. And the coffee is really good too ... and hot! So there were lots of goods and lots of not so goods that contributed to the 3 stars. I might be back ... and that's only to try a toasted bagel with cream cheese.

I went to Bagels by Jarrett tonight based on a recommendation from an Instagram influencer…read more I have to say, they have a weird setup. You can't go in the actual restaurant. If you ordered ahead of time, you park in front of the restaurant and wait in your car as a girl comes and gives you your order. Otherwise, you go into the restaurant next door, The Slice Shop, and order from a tablet. Odd. I wound up ordering The Cutlet Joe Triple Decker. It was a good sandwich, don't get me wrong, but it costs $22. That's kinda wild. It comes with a side of chips, pickles, and coleslaw. I also ordered a buffalo ranch slice from the slice shop, which cost $5. Also decent. I definitely appreciate the uniqueness of their menu, but I won't be returning for a long time due to the high prices.

BXJ is the real deal…read more You can tell immediately this isn't "just a business," it's a craft. Jarrett serves everything, and I mean everything -- bagels, pizza, cheesesteaks, subs...need gluten free? He's got that too The food speaks for itself...everything tastes fresh, perfectly textured, and is consistently excellent. But what really sets this place apart is the pride behind it. You don't get that rushed, transactional vibe here. You get someone who actually wants you to have a great experience, and it shows in every interaction and order. Customer service is second to none. Jarret is friendly, transparent, present, and genuinely invested in what he's doing. That's rare these days -- and it makes the whole place feel different in the best way. You feel not just satisfied, but impressed. Like you just found a spot you're going to keep going back to without even thinking about it.
