Checked this place out while I was in Queens. I ordered a cinnamon bagel with butter and my cousin had an everything bagel with cream cheese. Bagels were fresh and tasted great. The restaurant was clean and pretty busy. They also had an indoor seating space with a 30 minute limit. Overall, I am now a fan of their bagels and when I am back in NY, I want to try the other kinds of bagels they have.
The only bagel I ever get here (or anywhere else for that matter) is an everything bagel, toasted, with cream cheese. And Gotta Getta Bagel doesn't disappoint! Cash only.
I gotta tell you something. I love nova from this place. The way nova is cut makes a lot of difference. The thinnest cut is the best cut. Nova seems to be of a high quality as well. According to my mother-in-law, the nova used to taste very plain but lately seems to be on the saltier side. I think it's slightly saltier but not a lot. I also like bagels selection from here. They also have a few selections of cream cheeses including tofu, which is my mother-in-law's favorite. If you come here on weekends then you have to wait for a table because everyone wants the bagels from here. It's like there's no other bagel place, this is it! My mother-in-law usually comes here before going to her gym but in the summer we usually gotta getta bagel to go! Hard to find parking on weekdays so you gotta walk there to getta bagel! Ok, nuff said coz I gotta go.
Not a fan. Went in expecting an bacon egg and cheese and find out there is no bacon! On top of that, the lady taking care of me was not that friendly. The bagel with cream cheese was pretty good im not going to lie. But also this place was pretty pricy. Nothing special. ALSO CASH ONLY
the bagels here are good – not my favorite in the area, but very good – but the true hidden gem is their bialy. they're really good!
as my good friend Tom pointed out, it gets really hectic on weekend mornings. the small counter and seemingly random determination of "who's ordering next?" serves to frustrate me more often than not.
my biggest gripe is that too many folks like to camp out all morning. surprisingly, the yuppie stroller brigades are NOT the offenders here – instead, it's elderly locals who hog and annex tables like tinpot dictators. no enforcement of table time limits here turns this place into a freakin' senior center. meanwhile, I just wanna grab a bagel and coffee! SERENITY NOW!
Last few times here, we were served rock hard bagels. These were no day old bagels, more like 3+ days. And this was always on Saturday mornings between 9am and 12pm when you'd think everything was fresh. We kept giving then try after try but I think we're had enough stale hard bagels from them to call it quits.
I've always passed by this unassuming bagel shop in favor of a DD. But what if this place goes the way of nearby B&N? I finally tried it – and immediately came back again the next day. There's something about its old school charm and prices, along with the old-timers lounging around that's appealing. And of course, there is a nice selection of bagels to choose from that are baked fresh daily. When I walked in early afternoon most types were sold out already – a good sign. My favorite is an everything bagel with cream cheese and jelly…what a great combo! Perfect blend of sweet, tart, and creamy. Overall, a great local bagel shop with fresh ingredients and reasonable prices.
Really like the variety they have here. Everything is freshly made, good tasting. I tried the lox, egg salad, white fish spread. All very good. Bagels were soft. Cozy place with eat in or take out options. Usually long lines, but they moved fairly quickly.
My only complaint was the front counter. Not very comfortable and gets crowded once peoplw come forward to pay or place their order. Also, a bit pricey, but still. I feel like its best bagels in forest hills, rego park area. Used to be bagelette on 63rd! Back in the day was amazing. Gone downhill since new owner, but this is closest to can get to it, I feel. Service, was friendly enough. They smilied and made sure to get the order right.
