The Bronx Bagel Buggy

The staff was very friendly and helpful. However, the cafe was incredibly crowded and hard to maneuver through on a busy morning. The flow of service just doesn't seem to work very well. Once you placed your order you were either standing over people at the tables inside or blocking the counter as others came in to order. There's really no place to comfortably wait. I don't live in this area, but there are probably a half dozen other designer bagel shops between my house and this place. The bagels tasted fine but they weren't any better than those other places and the cost was relatively the same in comparison. ( I still think $5 for a bagel and cream cheese and $10 for a breakfast sandwich are ridiculous prices) The bagel my friend got was tasty but not remarkable and my SEC breakfast sandwich was just okay but not worth going back for.

Dope spot! Love the atmosphere! The bagels were awesome and had cream cheese piled high! They also have an open kitchen, so you can see the bagel being made which is awesome! My only issue was the wait time. It took roughly 25 minutes to get 2 bagels with cream cheese. They got one of our bagels wrong and had to wait about another 5 for that one. If they're able to get the ticket times down then it'll be a solid 4.5 stars and could truly be THAT bagel spot in Chamblee. Chamblee doesn't have a solid bagel spot, so hopefully pop out and show the area what's up. They're only open Thurs-Sun which is a bummer, but hey, maybe that'll change. Would I go here again? Already have!

My favorite bagels in ATL currently! I am absolutely obsessed with their honey sriracha cream cheese. For bagels, my favorite is the sundried tomato provolone (I think that's what it's called, it def has sundried tomato and some type of cheese). They don't make it everyday, so highly suggest snagging it if it's there! I've also tried the rosemary sea salt, which I found way too salty, and the jalapeño cheddar, which was very good and not spicy. I love the texture of their bagels, as they have the perfect level of chewiness. I get a toasted bagel with the honey sriracha cream cheese and it is around $5. I've also gotten iced coffee there and a lemon lavender cake before and both were fine. The bagels and cream cheese are definitely the star! The inside is really cute and has a New York theme. It's very small, with only a few tables. There are a couple small tables outside too. I get it to go. They are only open until 2pm Thurs-Sun. I would love for them to be open more days since I sometimes work weekends! I personally haven't had any issues with a slow long line like others mentioned because I usually go the last hour before they close, but I could see it taking a long time during a rush. I feel like they could benefit from having a second register but not sure where they'd put it since the place is so small. They do have online ordering, so I would try that if you plan on going at a peak time. Service is always pleasant! Overall, a great addition to Chamblee that I am happy to make the trek from the city for!

Despite the not so great reviews, the hubs and I wanted to try this spot for ourselves. Yes, the shop is a bit small, but the food, price, and friendliness far out weighs everything else. Asiago bagel with a honey siracha spread: The bagel was super chewy! The asiago is a must try for its chewiness. Plus, the cheese. It must be the cheese. Lol. Did I mention I love cheese?! The siracha portion of the spread was super faint. The honey part was stronger and what comes through.Rosemary sea salt bagel with a lox spread: Oh man the salt on this bagel. It was a tad over done. This bagel wasn't as chewy, sadly. Was it because it was toasted slightly a little longer? There was no wow effect. The lox spread was super divine though. I learned that back last quarter, they had a true lox option. :( The spread did have lox pieces, but it's not quite the same. But I would definitely recommend this lox spread as it feels heartier. Smoke sausage roll: There was a slight smokiness to the sausage hence the name. The dough covering the sausage was tasty as well. It was a meaty sausage with a jerky ish texture. He hubs said it was delicious. I don't eat meat like that so it was okay imo.The hubs said this place is great with it being local. And he says it's so much better than Einstein's that he often gets at work. I agree. I just think the rosemary sea salt bagel put a damper on the wowing experience. It started out so then became meh and then okay.

I went to this place shortly after they opened to see what all the hype was about. Despite it being an unorganized mess, the bagels were pretty good. It's small, cramped, and there is no clear flow. The lady at the register is slow as they get. But again, the bagel was as good as they come in the area. My in-laws were in town Easter weekend, and I decided to get there right at 7a to beat any rush and grab the family some bagels. They were closed. It was Easter Sunday so certainly their right, but a little surprising for a NY Style bagel place. Note....Einstein Bros across the street was open. Fast forward to Tuesday May 21. My mom was in town and we were in the area so I thought we would give it a try. Ooops...they aren't open Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday according to the posted hours. Yes...my bad for not checking. Still seems a little odd, but it's your business so your prerogative. My mom was still in town Thursday morning so I decided I would try again. Made the 10 minute drive only to find a hand written sign that they were closed. No explanation. Off to Einsteins again. If you want your local community to support you, try supporting the local community by actually being open. I am finished trying to give you my money. Best of luck.

It looks like the mediocre reviews were mostly from the first opening month with long lines and likely glitches. That's why I never go to a restaurant when it first opens. Wait for the hype to die down. Remember the lines at Halal Guys? Rosemary sea salt bagel with a lox spread: It was salty. I liked it enough but I had to pick some of the extra salt off the bagels. It was still tasty. Asiago bagel with a honey siracha spread: Chewy and cheesy. This was a good combination. I like sweet and salty flavors combined. The honey siracha spread was great and somewhat unique but had more of a sweet honey flavor and less of the siracha flavor. Smoke sausage roll: I'm comparing this to Buccee's sausage on a stick because it's similar in size and price. This one is so much better. There is a slight smoke and the dough covering the sausage was soft and flaky. Would I come here again? Yes, the bagels are delicious. I do want to try the different bagel varieties.

Tried out this bagel spot the other day. I think it's a great addition to Chamblee! It's a classic bagel shop with all your typical options. The staff is super nice. We got a bagel with cream cheese as well as a bagel sandwich. Glad we tried it!

This is a cute shop in heart of Chamblee. It feels like you are in a New York Deli with lots of delicious looking bagels and other baked goods. They serve lunch bagel sandwiches, breakfast bagel sandwiches, Latkes, etc. I got the veggie bagel sandwich on an everything bagel and it was delicious! It was fresh and perfect for a warm summer day. I also got drip coffee with whole milk and coffee woke me up. I kept drinking it even though I am not a big coffee person. I will definitely come back here to try other items.

Pretty good bagel but not as good as NY bagel. The texture is not as good but definitely good as far as a boutique bagel shop goes. Some of my favorite bagel flavors are the rosemary salt, everything, blueberry, and chocolate chip.When I initially had the Standard, it was way too oily/greasy but have been eyeing their lox that they are experimenting with. However I am definitely not willing to wait in line for an hour like I initially did, in this weather.Like the other reviews, they definitely need to work on efficiency. They need a better system on filling the orders and better help at the register. Spread wise, it's on the fluffy and not as flavorful side but still good. Some of the items that I didn't like was the hot dog bagel as it was overly dry and the bagel bomb.

I ordered the veggie bagel, and my friend got another. The bagels were amazing!!! I'm vegetarian and they had a lot of options!
