I'm not much of a bagel fan, because I've been told the bread in a bagel is equivalent to eating (4) slices of regular bread. But.. having stopped at Hudson's on a food/walking tour – I was blown away, with how good this bagel actually was. It was seasoned just right, just the right size, just the right fluffy to chewy texture ratio, and the cream cheese was phenomenal.
I now know why these New Yorkers are always sticking their noses up at my beloved Panera bagels. I wouldn't have eaten there either, if I had known there was such a delicious "real-deal" bagel out there waiting for me.
A few of my friends raved that this is one of the better bagels in NYC, but I didn't think it was anything special. Don't get me wrong, compared to the bagels of Philadelphia and South Jersey, it's probably a step above, but all in all it was ok.
The shop itself is very small and can get pretty crowded with only a few people inside. The people running the place can be a bit pushy if you take too long to order. Aside from bagels, they offer a variety of bagel sandwich options as well.
Price wise the bagels and drinks were reasonable by NYC standards.
Again, I wouldn't go out of my way for this place, but it sure beats a chain store breakfast if you are in the area.
This place knows how to make a sandwich. We grabbed breakfast here before spending the day in the West Village. My sister had a ham bagel while I have mine with bacon egg and cheese. They make their own bread and bagels and it could not be more satisfying. They really pile on the meat and the cream cheese too.
Heads up, they want you to know what you want right away. If you don't please let another guest go first. They take cash and a debit card. It is super tiny and not dine in. It is Was really hot in Sept so I'd imagine it'd be really cold in the winter.
Bagels are still 4 star, definately stop in here if you are looking for tasty bagels and friendly service. But skip the cream cheese. The last two times I had it from here it tasted a little funny.
This place is fast and cheap but it definitely doesn't stand up to New York bagels status. They're a little soft chewy. But the guys are nice.
Everything bagels including salt – thank you!! It drives me nuts that so many places leave that topping off of "everything." Slather on a shmear of super fresh cream cheese, and you've made me a happy gal.
Really good bagels.
This is probably the best bagel I have had in the city. I would have never thought this was going to be the place, but it was! The service was fast and friendly! Good stuff. Cheers.
I stopped here for a toasted everything bagel with scallion cream cheese (and by some hilarious cosmic connection, a girl stopped in a minute after me and ordered the exact same thing, confusing the guy behind the counter just a little bit). The bagel was fine – not amazing, but also better than most we get in California – and the scallion cream cheese was really good. I also appreciated that the spread wasn't ridiculously thick (because who needs that?) Service was pretty basic – not terribly friendly, but speedy and I was out of there quickly.
