the people that work here are rude!. one guy in particular in the 50th street store is extremely rude. he is the only guy with a beard. i went into the store and asked if i could have a cold bagel with butter so that the butter would not run all over the place and the guy told me he didnt have time for that and that my one dollar of business was not worth it. on another occasion, i went in there and the guy called me an idiot because i didnt speak loud enough when giving him the order. if you think it is fun to pay someone for business only to be insulted, this is the place for you my friend!!!!!

Best Bagels in NY!. They have the best bagels in all of NY! They have the highest selection of cream cheeses you could possible imagine. I recommend getting an everything bagel with one of their specialty type cream cheeses, which you won't find in other delis or bagel shops. The service was wonderful and we felt like we were part of a family.

Great Bagels. This is a great bagel/deli. Much better than nearby Tal Bagels. There are a lot of different schmers and they were generous. Bagels are very fresh and full of flavor.

Bagels and lox for a few bucks.
Excellent bagels and shmears! They have every kind of bagel, and the prices can't be beat. The service is great, and the quality and value are spectacular.
They have a small area where you can sit and nosh your bagel and coffee and watch the ebb and flow of people outside the window.
