I agree - it seems like they changed their recipe since I moved here two years ago? More doughy/less dry bready.

The bagels overall are much doughier with a better consistency. They also started grilling the cut sides for breakfast sandwiches which add a great flavor and texture. Eggs are much fluffier and bacon covers the entire sandwich.

Nice to hear. What should I order there?

Well they were C- bagels when I went in Nov, so it would be nice if they improved the recipe. Did they change since then?

Same goes for the location in the heights. Still not great but better. Unless I'm bugging

The delivery seems to be a lot faster on a Sunday morning, about 25 min these last 2 orders, delivered around 11am. The one on Central Ave. where I used to order would take an average of 20min longer on an ASAP order on Grubhub/Yelp.

And - they didn't screw up my order like the one on Palisades Ave. They sent me 2/3 of a tub of cream cheese instead of a full one and completely missed another tub. Called to complain and the manager refunded the order. But, won't take the chance of a ruined brunch.

I've never hated the bagels there but: that's encouraging! A whitefish salad craving will be slaked in the near future

The bagels there are subpar to be honest. Bagels on Hudson are much better in comparison

Bagels there are so-so. There are a few other good items. Jersey Ave location is favorite if there’s no line. Bergen ave location a close second.

The Sip Ave location really has gone downhill. Stale bread, incorrect orders, poor hygiene and soo much more going sideways there.

I've always liked their bagels. It's just the ordering system that is aggravating. Some person taking your order and preparing it is archaic. One person designated to the register. One to taking orders. One for sandwiches. One for cream cheese. It's simple and efficient.

I ve felt the opposite. Lesser cream cheese , longer wait times and what used to fill me to the brim is now an easy finish.

City bagel is not open yet

The bagels are just fine at best from the downtown location. Other locations are a bit better. Coffee's went downhill, prices have gone up. Cat was Narc'd.

It's a perfectly acceptable mid tier bagel, some people over hype what is a run of the mill local joint, some people feel we deserve better. Something something Suburban strip mall places have got us beat.

We didn't start the fire. It was always burning since the world started turning.
