ANOTHER GREAT BROOKLYN BAGEL STORE FOUND
Stopped by for a bagel and coffee on my way to work , actually went outta my way off the belt for a few mins BUT so worth it !
Ended up getting an everything bagel (fresh out the oven ) nice and warm with Jalapeño and cheddar Cream Cheese which was one of the best Jalapeño CC'S I've had because it was loaded with peppers and was actually nice and spicy unlike alot of the others I've tried at other places . The coffee was also pretty good .
Also Huge list of hero's and wraps to choose from for lunch, everything looked and sounded great .
Will definitely be back in the future for more meals !
Ps. They also have a rainbow bagel which you can get with confetti cream cheese if that's what you're fancying !!
I lived on the block right next to Tasty Bagel for 9 years and have spent a lot of money here. Their prices are pretty outrageous for a bagel and sandwich shop in the middle-of-nowhere Brooklyn, but once you try a freshly made bagel you'll understand why. My regular order of a toasted plain bagel with scallion cream cheese costs almost $3 (the same order at the deli by my job in Manhattan is $1.75).
If you have friends and family visiting from out of town, order a dozen and get some pints of cream cheese. In the summer, order sandwiches here for picnics.
So, I'm sitting at my desk when an email pops up from a coworker. The subject line: sandwiches
He said there were extra sandwiches left over from a training session.
I said I had just finished my lunch.
He said "But they're from Tasty Bagel in BK"
So, not knowing anything about Tasty Bagel, I went downstairs. I grabbed an Italian slice and headed back to my desk with the intention of bringing my sandwich home for dinner. It didn't last. The roll loaded with toppings (ham, swiss, turkey, provolone & mozzarella) looked so good I had to take a bite. And, as you may have guessed, 5 minutes later the sandwich slice was gone. And it was good. Really really good. The bread? Fresh & so soft. The meats & cheeses? Sliced & combined perfectly. Will I visit next time I'm in Bensonhurst? Absolutely.
They weren't kidding when they named their store Tasty bagels. My bf and I decided to come here for some coffee and bagel. Thanks to good reviews in yelp, we came here and we were not disappointed. Today was the first time I came here and I am proud to say that I will be coming back for more. The coffee was delicious too, just the way I like it light no sugar. Sometimes, in other stores even when I ask for light they make my coffee dark, but not here!
Also, the service was fast and the worker who took our order was friendly.
We got a plain toasted bagel with jelly, it was great!
Ordered a toasted Everything cream cheese bagel with jelly. The bagel itself was wonderful , light and crispy. But the cream cheese' texture was a bit too whipped for my liking. The jelly was light and sweet. Overall the quality of the bagel was really good for its price. I would consider coming to this place only if I'm around the area. I don't usually eat bagels in the morning but this morning my friend decided to get some and I was hungry so why not?
I love this place because of the great prices and the quality they serve. What's unique about this place is the funfetti bagels and funfetti cream cheese. The funfetti bagels is just a plain bagel with food coloring and the funfetti cream cheese is cake batter. I love bagel shops because not only are the bagels handrolled but the cream cheese is home made. Forget about Philly Cream cheese and Thomas's bagels. You haven't had a real one yet unless they're handrolled.
Lox everything bagel with bacon cream cheese – The salmon was fresh and the bits of bacon was a nice addition to the lox. The everything bagel was a little too salty.
Funfetti bagel with blueberry cream cheese – The cream cheese was the killer here, there's bits of blueberry and it's not too sweet either. The texture was so creamy and fluffy!
Pastrami egg and cheese on everything bagel – Cheesy, savory, delicious. I usually prefer bacon but pastrami is a good alternative.
P.S. Cash only!
My girlfriend from the Bronx has to stop by here anytime she is in my neighborhood for an everything bagel with cream cheese and jelly and an ice coffee. This 86st bagel institution has stood the test of time for quite a few years, when the 13th avenue bagel shops started to suck and/or close, and the one on New Utrecht overcharging for not great bagels,Tasty is still the hands down number one option in the area.
My stomach rumbled as I strolled the streets at 6:00 AM – ravenous from not eating much the night before. Cue Tasty Bagels beckoning to my rumbling tummy: "Fresh bagels! Coffee!"
I walked in to no crowd and a few guys working behind the counter. I couldn't find a description for the types of bagels they had so I asked them directly if they had blueberry with low-fat cream cheese (my fave). Thankfully, they did and began to prep my breakfast immediately after I ordered.
My eyes wandered briefly as I waited and stopped when I saw a man working on bagels and preparing them. The ravenous appetite began to dwindle as I watched him drag what looked like soggy bagels through water and slap them down flat. It was not a visually-appealing process by any means.
I began sipping away on the coffee after I paid (total was less than $3 for a coffee and bagel w cream cheese) and found they put way too much sugar for that small cup; not to mention, it was also warm and not hot which meant it had been sitting out. Other than that, it was a nice brew and I did enjoy the taste.
I broke off a piece of the bagel and I was very pleasantly surprised at how good of a bagel it was. I could feel a springyness in each bite that I simply haven't tasted in a bagel before. Taste was not lacking either … This is probably the result of the dragging through water and palm-slapping mentioned earlier. Keep that up if it's going to taste like this!
A hot cup of coffee is my only requested change for my return visit.
