“ Fantastic bagels, fresh and highly recommend as they're so close to New York style. Good options in selection, fast service. Even a nice area to sit to enjoy their great set iced coffee. Highly recommend! ”
“ I tried the Classic on an Everything Bagel and it was terrific! I've never had Italian sausage with a bagel sandwich, but I was impressed. The coffee was also excellent, I'll definitely be back! ”
“ The Bagel Baker may always look busy. This is because they are so good. Fresh bagels I usually go for lunch. The sandwiches are amazing. I get a different sandwich every time I go and have never been disappointed lately. I always asked to cut mine in half. My husband will get a different sandwich and get his cut in half . Then we can try 2 different sandwiches. We got the Manhattan and the Chelsea. Both very different but both EXCELLENT!!!! They both have bacon on them, and the bacon was perfect. Both very flavorful and fresh.. staff very nice and fast too for a fresh sandwich made to order ”
“ Love their breakfast bagels & house sweetened iced coffee. they have quick & efficient service. ”
“ The SoHo bagel was great! Very fresh and tasted good. The restaurant was very cute and had a lot of NY decor. The service was also super fast and the staff was friendly! ”
“ Ever since moving to Hampton Roads from Brooklyn, NY, I've been on a search to find a New York style bagel. The Bagel Baker is by far the closest thing I've found to the bagels back home and I stop by there whenever I really want a NY bagel. My go to is the Long Island Lox on an everything bagel. That comes with a good portion of lox, cream cheese, tomato, capers, and onions. It's always delicious every time I have it. The bagel itself is for sure the best one I've found in the area and the most similar to the bagels in NY. The service here is also great. It's always fast, even when the line is longer. There's plenty of seating inside, along with a couple of tables outside as well. The inside is full of nostalgic NY photos and art. The Bagel Baker is overall a great pick for a NY style bagel in Virginia Beach. ”
“ Hard to find a NY-style bagels in the area! But this place might be a winner. Plenty of indoor sitting and even two kiosks aside from the regular counter. Stopped by earlier this morning after the rush & picked up a BB on Broadway (bacon, egg, cheese, and hash brown) as well as a blueberry yogurt muffin. While a little pricey, the bagel was chewy and fresh. And gosh, the muffin was incredibly yummy! I'll have to give the other breakfast sandwiches a try. ”
“ A mad search for New York Style Bagel Bakeries before my son & grandson arrived led me back to this location where my family came in the late '80s. When I walked in it looked completely different. That's because it was. I'm not sure what happened to the old store since it had been decades since I had frequented the bagel shop. This bakery was exactly what I was looking for. They boil then bake their bagels preservative free. It brought back memories of a Bagel Bakery in Atlanta I frequented in the early '70s that actually had the boiling vat in view. The Bakery was decorated really awesome on the outside & inside with sidewalk seating available in addition to the dining area. A separate door was provided for takeout or online orders. I joined the rope line to place my order so I could peruse the menu on the wall. The line featured a long picturesque scene of New York. The inside dining area walls were also New York cityscape scenes. How awesome!! The restaurant was clean & very popular. Takeout orders were placed in bags awaiting pickup. There were many. Breakfast sandwich choices looked spectacular & were all New York themed. But my quest was for the type of single bagels that my family eat for breakfast. My purchase was Sesame Seed & Cinnamon Raisin. I wanted to peruse the cream cheese choices. But there was a line behind me & I was operating on short time. Reading the background of the owners I learned they were a couple from New Jersey who founded the bakery in 2012. They have a food truck & also have plans to open a delicatessen in the space previously occupied by 58 Deli Diner. My son & grandson said their Sesame & Cinnamon Raisin Bagels were good. And my son perused their Breakfast & Brunch Bagel Sandwich Menu. The location is in the shopping center on the southeast side of the intersection of Mill Dam Road with N Great Neck Road. Coming from Shore Drive driving south there's easy entrance by a left turn on Mill Dam & and immediate right into the shopping center. I will definitely return, maybe even breaking my diet & choosing a Breakfast Bagel Sandwich. ”
