Mill Basin Bagel Cafe

"I’m so tired of this place. Everyone is exceptionally polite, except for one guy behind the counter, who always happens to end up taking my order. He takes the order so confidently, but then always gets it wrong. Then be prepared for him to tell you what you said and didn’t say during your order. Extremely frustrating. I went 2 days in a row and both times i had to come back. The first day they completely neglected to put the other sandwich in the bag that i ordered so i had to drive back after realizing it wasn’t in there. The second day my bagel was so burnt and crunchy that i couldn’t make it past one bite before deciding to return to the store. When I got there there’s no apology or empathy although they did replace it i should have to come back a second time for them to make it right. The place appears to be a well run place and is nice and clean. Other than that. I’ll be traveling further for my breakfast fixes. Especially with how overpriced this place is they need to do way better."

"Bagels are decent enough, but the prices are outrageous. The one star is due to the food preparers who seem to take it as a personal affront if they have to say ‘what?’, as well as the horrible attitude exhibited by the cashiers, who were never trained to say ‘good morning’ or ‘thank you,’ even when customers greet them first. I see more enthusiasm from the people legally enrolled in community service cleaning up the Belt Parkway bike path. Everyone seems upset and bothered by your very presence. Parking is impossible. Maybe 15 narrow spots, and the guy who delivers bagels sometimes double parks, blocking customers’ exits. If you find yourself in the area and are hungry, keep driving. I will never degrade myself by entering this store ever again."

"I truly think they have one of the top 3 bagels in all of NYC. It is always fresh and tasty, the cream cheeses are delicious and they never have the refrigerated taste. The place is very clean and they finally are accepting cards! This is me eating an everything bagel with scallion cream cheese, they also have a bacon scallion cream cheese. Amazing"

"I recommend the plain bagel along with 2 others that I've tried, which are the whole wheat and the egg flavored bagels.The bagels are tasty, the texture is just right! I'm looking forward to trying the cinnamon raisin bagel upon my next visit. As for pastries, I will do a repeater of what's called a strawberry croissant (pic's incl.). It's tasty without being overly sweet. My last suggestion is the apple-cranberry tuna salad. To my surprise, this sweet and savory combo is a delicious match......"
