I saw they offered NY bagels and had to give it a go! They didn't disappoint! I had the egg whites with turkey and Swiss on an everything bagel with SPK. The bagel was fresh with a good chew and well seasoned. The egg whites were fluffy with a good amount of cheese. The inside area is clean and the service is good. It is a pay at the counter and make-your-own coffee kind of place with nice outdoor seating. The inside dining area is not very large though, so wait for the warm weather if you're in a big group.

not really what I'd call "hidden" (flags and signage give away the location) but whatever. fun little snack shack south of down town opened a while back with patio seating available in season. off work today for because and wound up here about 10:30 which is a little late for normal breakfast but a little ahead of regular lunch so just a little awkward... anyway, baked goods on display and bags o' chips on a tree and coffee-n-stuff on the far wall. tables and booths inside but it's a nice day for mid-winter so maybe get a spot out of doors in the sunshine and relax some..? perfect..!took a look at the menus and settled on a sunrise something or other (menu picture didn't picture very well but it's the spendy sammich) plus a hashed brown and topped off my coffee before heading outside to the patio to catch up on my reading... after a bit a young lady comes out with my lunch all wrapped up tight plus a packet of syrups for dripping :-) got everything squared away and secure against the breeze and yep, it's quite the breakfast sandwich: american cheese, runny egg, and sausage on frenched toasts... eats something like a monte cristo except more breakfasty and it mostly fits in your hand so no cutlery needed. it's gonna be a little drippy when you drizzle the syrup on it - even more so with a soft yolk - so forget about taking a snap between bites... and try to not ruin your shirt (or phone/camera) which is hard enough at a proper table and nearly impossible in a moving vehicle, doubly so if driving.am I disappointed about missing actual lunch here? just a tiny bit, but whatcha gonna do? maybe come in during advertised lunch hours? that would probably work...

First time visiting. Small indoor area with additional outside seating. Reuben was the best I've had outside of NY tri state area. (Langers in LA excluded). Shrimp and corn chowder was very tasty. Can't wait to try others. Food took maybe 15 minutes to come out after ordering at counter. I will call ahead next time. Order was well-packaged to go. No spillage and every thing hot when I got home. I will try breakfast next time.

We stopped here this morning to grab a bagel sandwich. Perfect amount of bagel to fillings and bagels were nice and crispy on outside and chewy on inside. Will definitely come again and again

2nd time at Zanders Bistro! First time was for breakfast and I got the sausage, egg and cheese on an Asiago bagel. This time for lunch and I got the godfather- roast beef, mozzarella, and garlic bread. Both experiences have been incredible and one of the only places in NC that reminds me of back home in PA. If you haven't been, I highly recommend you give it a try. The food is amazing and the staff are extremely nice. The inside is super nice and looks like a great place to sit outside in the summer.

We moved here from NY almost 2 years ago and missed our bagels and BEC sandwiches (bacon, egg and cheese) and we found it at Zander's Bistro. The BEC on a Kaiser roll was delicious and made me feel like I was back in NY again. We'll be back soon to try some of the other menu items.

Ok so I've finally found a place that has true NY bagels! The reason is at Zander's Bistro they bring them in fresh every week form NY, go figure. I picked up a half dozen of fresh soft delicious bagels. Now these are not huge bagels like you may get in some other shops but they are the perfect size for a smear of cream cheese, egg sandwich or just toasted with some butter. They do have seating inside the shop but also a number of tables outside on the patio. I'm guessing if you sit outside you could more then likely bring your dog but you may want to check. The menu is limited with mostly sandwiches and fresh pastries from the case. Also all kinds of coffee and juices are available. Do yourself a favor, support a small business and head over to Zander's and have a cup of coffee and a bagel, you'll be glad you did.

The food was top tier! The staff was friendly! We ordered the Tuscany and the Chicken Parm and the flavor in the Tuscany was incredible every single bite! The cookies were also delightful I would certainly recommend this as a must stop for lunch spot in Mooresville!
