About

Bagel ShopBreakfast RestaurantBakeryCafeManhattan Bagel
Made the Right Way. Every Day. There's a reason our bagels taste different--they're made the traditional way. At Manhattan Bagel, we give each bagel a dip in a kettle of boiling water, then bake them fresh each morning. That's how we get our authentic shiny bagels with a crispy, golden crust on the outside and that soft, satisfying chew inside. No shortcuts. Just real, authentic bagels made the way they were always meant to be. We kettle-boil our bagels to lock in that shine and crunch, then bake them fresh daily for a chewy, golden bite. No shortcuts, just the classic NY method - done right, right here, every day.

    I had a very unprofessional experience at this location. I ordered a cinnamon bagel and two muffins, and the young woman at the counter began laughing at me while I was placing my order. She said she couldn’t take my order but would not explain why. This behavior was disrespectful and completely unacceptable in a customer-facing role. An older gentleman—who identified himself as her father—came to the register. Instead of addressing her behavior or apologizing, he immediately became defensive and excused it by saying she was ‘just a kid.’ If someone is working behind the counter and representing the business, age is not an excuse for laughing at customers. It showed a clear lack of professionalism and accountability. What made the situation worse was that the father seemed more upset with me for questioning the behavior than with the fact that his daughter was acting inappropriately in front of customers. It was embarrassing to witness, and it reflects poorly on how the business is run. Based on this experience, I cannot recommend this establishment. I hope management takes customer feedback seriously and improves the professionalism of those working behind the counter.

    Expensive. Bagels are expensive as it is. My local bagel shop from my town. It’s like $3.75 for a bagel with cream cheese. At this spot It’s $4.09 like come on be reasonable with the prices. Maybe sell your bagels more cheaper than others spots so more people can come instead of having leftover bagels at the end of the day
