Let's look at what users say about this business

Ess-A-Bagel is my favorite bagel shop purely for the bagels themselves. Order an everything bagel with some form of cream cheese and you will not be disappointed. The bagels are the “meatiest” once I’ve seen in NYC, and they do not skimp on the spices for the everything bagels. Fair point to note: If you’re looking for an egg sandwich, this is not the place to go. Ess-A-Bagel specializes in bagels and spreads, but the eggs are not worth checking out, in my opinion.

Die Bagel schmecken großartig. Ganz besonders mit Creamcheese und Loxspread. Dieser „ess a bagel“ ist auch nicht so unangenehm voll. Der Kaffee ist auch sehr gut und schön heiß.Gute Plätze gibt es innen und außen, und auch die Toilette kann man gut benutzen. Während 6 Tage New York waren wir drei Mal hier. Nächstes Jahr wieder. Da freue ich mich heute schon.
