"Slice & Schmear is a quaint bagel shop in South Philly! I stopped in after seeing some positive reviews online. I got the cragel on a sesame bagel with light scallion schmear. They were very generous with the toppings, which I appreciated especially for only $11. It was a HUGE bagel! I did find the bagel itself to be a bit on the harder side, I would’ve liked it to be a touch softer. The flavor also could’ve been elevated a bit more, but that might have to do with the fact that I got light schmear and not regular. The value for portion was definitely there. I’m not sure I would come back but overall it was good."

"Order online! Got a very mid BEC, the egg itself was sooo dry and disgusting it made me nauseous to eat. Plenty of cheese and the bacon was good. I wish they put the everything seasoning on the bottom of the bagel as well. The side bagel I ordered was small and dense, but the bagel that came on the vegetable sandwhich I ordered was big and fluffy - don’t love the inconsistency! The strawberry cream cheese is very tasty and sweet. Coffee is decent. Wish there was a button to add hot sauce or a hash brown to the BEC."

"This morning I woke up craving a good bagel and thought of Slice and Schmear because I had them in the past and felt they were most similar to a NY Jewish bagel. We ordered online and picked up. The order was ready when we were there for pick up. I was super excited to bite in as the cucumbers and onions looked fresh. To my disappointment when I had my first bite it was like biting in to a rock. Not only was it hard from being toasted but because it was burnt the flavor of the everything bagel was gone and ruined the entire sandwich. One thing I will never understand is why people ruin a bagel by toasting it unless of course it’s old or stale. At the very least an option should be given if you want your bagel toasted."

"When the bagels aren't sleeping they're filling the neighborhood with their aromatic bagel smells. I was there when they woke up. The line wasn't bad and the service was nice. The bagels are off a sourdough texture; hard outside with a chewy inside. I'll always suggest a half and half. The bagel varieties are massive and each flavor can be distinguished with every bite. Highly recommend"

"What I’m about to say is very important about this establishment. 3 years ago I came to korshak bagel (what this place used to be) amidst the hype and I wasn’t as astonished for multiple reasons which I won’t mention, it was very good but not the best despite other view points. I removed my review to make a new one here. This place is extremely good if not better than the previous management. The ingredients are more fresh and the bagels have a much better outer texture. It’s a shame people follow hype and I don’t see lines outside this shop the way the previous one did. But overall this spot is now just going be lowkey and at least it’s good there are no lines so we can be in and out, sometimes the previous hype made the previous owners over burn the bagels. That’s not a problem here. Great work"
