Worst delivery ever!.
They took one hour and ten minutes to make the delivery. The food went cold, and there was coffee spilled over my bagel. My omelet was good, after i microwaved it.
This place sucks, do not order here!

Excellent Excellent Excellent.
Being a New Yorker.. yes actually born here...I have tasted many bagels in all parts of the city..
I have to say that their bagels here are terrific, but what I love most about them is that their vegetable cream cheese is the best I have ever had. The help is so-so. The decor is so-so. So just call them up and order in.
You won't be disappointed.

B+.
Outstanding Bagels, but you get what you pay for. This isn't a value joint. While they keep the capex to a minimum, they do put some cash into the bagels, because they among the best in the city.
It's really a takeaway place, I wouldn't sit if I could take it home.

An unassuming chain purveyor of super-sized bagels..
In Short
Pick a Bagel's decor is cafeteria-like, with a drop ceiling, fluorescent lighting and faux-wood tables. A small, friendly team of attendants fields orders from a steady stream of local office workers. The huge bagels' fluffy, chewy interiors are marked by occasional large bubbles. Accoutrements consist of the usual assortment of spreads, salads and smoked fish. The eatery also doles out reliable soups, salads and wraps.

Disappointing. I am relatively new to the area and tried Pick a bgel on 2nd and was disappointed with the service and I thought the food was overated and on the pricey side. If you are in the area try The Bagel Shoppe on 74th street which is 3 blocks away on 2nd Ave. Great bagels, spreads and a good place to hang out in.

BEST BAGELS IN NYC!. Great place to grab a hot bagel on the way to work. Unlike H&H up the block, this place actually gives you hearty and hot bagels this town is known for. Of course this atmosphere is lacking, but what do you expect from a 24 hour bagel place anyways?

The Best chicken salad. Pick a bagel on 2nd has the best chicken salad ever... even there low fat is good. The employees are excellent..some even know me by name and order (pathetic for me)...i just can't stay away! plus the make your own salad..... they do not have limits on what or how much you can put on it. you can actually get 2 salads worth if u take it home and add it to some lettuce!

Take your request elsewhere!. Bagels are ok, but be sure not to make any special requests! I asked for an open faced cheese sandwich and the manager basically told me to take my business elsewhere! Be sure not to get anything other than bagels!..the turkey burgers are scary!
