"When you come to New York, this is a great place for bagels! The ordering process is as smooth as the numerous amounts of differently style cream cheese they offer. Our only issue we encountered was mainly with the online ordering system. It did not allow for us to make any modifications to our orders prior to purchasing. Upon arrival, we ordered food to eat in house while we were picking our online orders up. We asked about modifications seeing as how the system did not allow for it. They said they couldn’t change the bagel choices once they were bagged. Furthermore, we asked that our bagels not be sliced in half. The entire dozen were sliced in half. This was our first impression of Best Bagels and while the system may not be perfect, it’s definitely somewhere we’d come back to. And you should too!"

"Was planning to go to Liberty Bagels but went here instead because the line was too long. There was a line, but we ordered and got our food in about ten minutes. This was THE BEST bagel I’ve ever had. I got a BEC with the honey siracha cream cheese and my brother got the Hungry Stack. Both were SO GOOD, the bagel was hot and fresh and everything tasted delicious. I’m so glad we went here instead 10/10 would recommend!!"

"Very busy Bagel shop, but efficient line up and made quickly. Ordered their lox bagel, and took only 5 minutes to get it despite being busy. Shockingly the thing had to have weighed 2lbs. Tons of lox, cream cheese and a nice soft bagel. Delicious! Minimal places to sit but that’s to be expected."

"Best Bagel is one of most famous store among Koreans. However, when I enter the store, crowded with people from all over the world 🇺🇸 The female staff who got my order was kind but looks exhausted bout work 🥲 I do understand her right away cause customers never stopped after me. Every staffs were friendly in general. My order was Everything bagel+smoked salmon+plain creme cheese which one is the Best 🥯 Highly recommended it!"

"I always heard that NY bagels are a must try and that they are the best. Last time I was in NY, I left disappointed w/ the bagel places we tried. Well Best Bagel changed my opinion. I ordered a plain toasted w/ sundried tomato spread and a plain reuben. The reuben wasn't bad and I really liked the sundried spread, but the hit was the bagel. This is what I expected from the hype about NY bagels. I think this is what people were talking about. For me it was the consistency of the bagel, not to airy or doughy. It was the right consistency without having to work to enjoy an almost perfect bagel."
