14 reviews for Bagel Buffet
if u happened to be in the neighborhood, & u don't want to think much where to have a quick breakfast, lunch, snack, or even dinner, go to this place. pretty decent food place-----nothing fuzzy at all. nothing extraordinary if compared w/the other food places w/in walking steps from this one. order what u want & just grab a seat & take ur time. i've been here at least 3x & every time i'm here, i realize, i wish most foodplaces can be like this one way or another. i think it's the combination attention-they-give-to-their-kind-of-customers, plus their rather affordable prices that make us customers go back every chance we got.
of course, the bathroom's not really that clean LOL
Just ordered delivery from here and the fresh-squeezed oj I ordered for $2.50 was definitely not fresh-squeezed. Tasted like the Tropicana they sell for a $1.
Lousy.
I really like Bagel Buffet. With a friendly staff and delicious coffee, I know I can stop by for a quick grab before class, or stay to relax. While I like Murray's, which is located on the next block, BB is less expensive and they will toast your bagel if you want. The décor leaves a bit to be desired, but everything is kept clean. Conveniently located right by the 6th Ave stop for the L, F, V.
I have food from here all the time. They have really good bagels. Good, soft, fresh, New York bagels. They also make good bagel sandwiches (turkey, et al). If I ever order delivery they're here almost instantly. They're cash only so that can be a pain sometimes, and one thing I don't like is that the stuff in the cream cheese/spreads bar doesn't always look fresh. Some of their less popular spreads and pasta/potato/whitefish salads have that sort of "I've been sitting out for 18 hours" glaze over the top so I definitely wouldn't recommend the strawberry cream cheese or non-fat tofu non-cream cheese spread (but would you ever order that anyway!?) I also get irritated that they don't spread both sides of the bagel and when I ask for my favorite bagel combo - sesame bagel with cream cheese, tomato, and red onion, they make it a sandwich and pile it all on with sometimes less than fresh tomatoes, rather than spread both sides and put it together neatly so that I can eat each side open-faced. All that aside, I have never been disappointed with the quality of the bagels and would recommend to others for a standard sunday morning bagel.
Didn't really order a bagel. Came in because I wanted a cup of hot chocolate. The hot chocolate was decent. There are a lot of things on the menu. It opens late so its the place to go when other things are closed.
This place is pretty decent. They have, of course bagels, but also sandwiches, soups, mexican food and ice cream. They are open 24hrs so it's a great place to grab a quick bite if you in the village going up 6th (tips for the kids partying on the weekends taking the L Train into BK)
The bagels are pretty decent -- I live in Bay Ridge and with the exception of Bagel Boy, most of the bagels in my neighborhood could be used as doughy softballs. That being said, Bagel Buffet is a good deal. I got my extra well toasted bagel and it was actually toasted, unlike the mildly hot bread I get from most bagel shops. Bagel Buffet also makes a mean pancake -- an order consists of three golden cakes not too mushy, not too burnt that melted butter happily seeps into. If a fussy nine year old will eat them (and without syrup, mind you), you will too.
Lots of choices of beverages and a quickly moving check out line. Its not gourmet, but its not bad either. The store was very clean from what I could see, and me and the above mentioned nine year old even ate there this morning.
I like Bagel Buffet. Even their pasta is pretty good. It is quite affordable. Their bagels are good and I highly recommend the omelettes.
Crap. I think I'm officially too Asian for my liking.
I got suckered in by the "Buffet" in the name.
Don't name something "Buffet" or "all you can eat" or "cheap" without meaning it people! I expected a bargain. Or at least unlimited carbs to fill my tummy.
.... Sadly, I got neither here.
At the point of starvation, I stumbled into this joint looking for some carbs to fill me up. No multi-grain bagels here, so I opted for whole wheat.
I was handed a little bagel. Almost verging on mini.
... The only things I like mini-sized are... egos.
Their cream cheese tasted funny. I had to scrape most of it off. And I HATE wasting food that I had to pay for. (I'm even a sucker when it comes to free food. Yes, it's that bad).
Their only saving grace was the fact that the bagel was nice and chewy. Just the way I like it.
... Too bad it was probably from some other bakery on the other side of town.
I left down a few dollars and still hungry.
Worst. Buffet. Ever.
I used to buy my bagels here religiously back when I was a starving student, so I'm amazed to be writing its inaugural review. Apparently the new generation of students in this neighborhood has moved on. Was there a scandal? Is it some kind of low carb South Beach silliness?
Anyway, I had a bagel yesterday, and it was as good as I remember from (gasp) seventeen years ago. It's my favorite bagel within walking distance of NYU. Maybe my favorite in the city.
They didn't have any black and white cookies. Other than that, Bagel Buffet hasn't changed a bit.
Stop in. Be ready with your order when they call you. While you're at it, buy a dozen and go visit your mom.
Bagel Buffet is a quick-moving morningtime carbohydrate and fat circus. I got no regrets for the time or money I've spent here trying to justify being awake. The coffee is way too hot to actually drink for at least ten minutes after you get it, but it is real cheap so you can't complain. If you get it with milk you'll be fine, squire.
In a city with approx. thirty bajillion bagel places per square mile, Bagel Buffet is notable for its progressive offering of tofutti non-dairy cream cheese substitute. They have the straight-up kind or one with lotsa little diced vegetables in it. The fact that Bagel Buffet sells tofutti is supercool because it means that I can go here with my vegan boyfriend and he will have something to do other than watch me eat.
Beware the bagel buffet buffalo burger, as it is just ... a hamburger. Apparently bagel buffet thinks they can charge 75 cents more for the name buffalo,and when I brought it up to the guy and asked him what was buffalo about bun,meat,bun his response was what makes it buffalo is the spices. When then confronted about what were said spices he then responded with and I quote " I mean have you ever had a buffalo burger?" No good sir I am a cave dwelling imbecile who would gladly pay more for jack shit. What i finally got was a Buffalo cheeseburger which was the same thing but with two slices of cold cheese,on top of soggy fries week old lettuce and some pale tomato slices. Avoid this dump at all costs
Ew. This place is disgusting. I ordered a bunch of bagel sandwiches for myself and some friends and everything that could go wrong did. There was hair in the cream cheese on one bagel and the egg salad was rancid. My bagel had four ingredients (creamcheese, onions, lox and tomatoes) and it was a huge disaster. Wilted lettuce, fishy lox, mushy onions. Ugh. The price is super low, but is it worth it for crappy food? I think not.
My favorite bagel place in the city. If you're lucky you can get there when they just come out of the oven. The onion are amazing.
