New York City Bagel & Coffee House

Absolutely loved the vegan tofu cream cheese! tasteful. best bagel ever

They are quite huge, but excellent! they always have a few vegan cheeses to spread on their bagel.

My favorite bagels shop in nyc, bar no. Top note, big bagels and good coffee. they have the best vegan tofu cream cheese I have ever tasted, almost inconspicuous from milk cream cheese with a decent variety of aromen. Gluten-free bagels are available, but you will be advised that they are a third of the size of regular bagels, and a little more expensive.

Always get the whole bagel with tofu cooking cream cheese. yummy! regular bagels are gigantic

The bagels here are enormous! They also have “mini” sized, which are the size of a normal bagel, and “flat” versions of some flavors. 4 kinds of tofu spreads: plain, veggie, scallion, and cinnamon walnut. I wish there were more options, but oh well. Plus there’s always peanut butter, almond butter, and/or jelly. Plenty of vegetables to make a sandwich out of, too. Avocado, tomato, cucumber, lettuce, onion, etc. They also have basil, which is kind of novel. Scallion tofu, tomato basil on an everything bagel? Fuggetaboutit. They give VERY generous amounts of spread on all bagels, so I like to tell them to go easy on the tofu spread. Otherwise it’s way too much even for me, and I’m not one to skimp out on the decadent. The smoothies are also good. The banana-peanut butter smoothie (sans honey) is rich and tasty. They also have an interesting looking smoothie with butternut squash in it. Haven’t tried the oatmeal yet, but it’s on my list. They have almond and soy milks, and the coffee/espresso is actually quite good, one of the better options in the neighborhood. They have tons of outdoor seating (all year round, it seems), and the inside is cute. Kind of industrial chic with a cool light fixture. The employees all wear black fedoras, which is silly. It’s obviously fine, it just sometimes makes me giggle. Long lines on weekends, quick in and out most other times.
