Pio Bagel

The bagels here are not bad. They have a good selection of bagels and spread. You can customize your own salad and they also have a juice machine.
I usually stop by for breakfast or a bagel in the morning. The reason for the low rating is the customer service is not that great and depending on the cashier, the price is not that consistent either. I usually order 2 or 3 of the same item during the week so i know how much it should cost because i normally pay the same amount each time. But every so often, depending on the cashier the price may be a few dollars more. becuase lets say they may view your breakfast sandwich as a regular sandwich. I don’t mind paying but i dont like to play roulette on which cashier will charge me the correct price when i get to the register. So i have not been stopping by as much.

I came across this bagel store as I was walking down Downtown Brooklyn. I always like to get bagels from places where they are baker on premise. They offer a great selection of bagels along with a variety of cream cheeses. My favorite by far is the whole wheat bagel with Avocado cream cheese. They also offer many other food selections besides bagels such as salads, smoothies, sandwiches, and shakes. Its definitely worth stopping in and trying one of their fresh bagels.

Pio Bagels is conveniently located near the Jay Street Metro Tech stations. They have many options and even have gluten-​free bagels. They also have a few variations of tofu cream cheese. What more could you ask for?
You can get your bagel toasted but I’d ask for double, as once in the oven isn’t enough. By the time you bite into it, it’s soggy from the cream cheese.

Great bagel, great coffee and really excellent lox spread. VERY friendly staff. Using the restroom in the back of the kitchen was not a problem. Tiny places like this in urban areas usually tell you «Sorry no bathroom». Eating things with my hands, I like to was first. No problem here. They have a small buffet that looks really good too. We’ll probably hit this place from now on when we go to Unique Thrift across the street.

Another bagel place to love in this city!
The line is huge. It’s a local place. Good sign. I got in line.
The line moved quick. The service was fast and friendly and efficient.
I ordered a cream cheese lox spread on an everything bagel. Bagels are fresh and delicious. They have a lot of cream cheese spreads. And their coffee is good too.

Amazing gluten free bagels made on site everyday! There are tons of spread options, too. The employees are all nice, too. Pricing is fair, even for the gluten free bagel. My favorite: bacon egg and cheese on a toasted gluten free bagel.

Excellent in-​house service as well as delivery. Polite and efficient. Delivery is well-​priced. Egg bagel is terrific; I like to have a lunch of chicken salad on either the egg or onion bagel. Love this place!

12÷20÷15 — I stopped in a few days ago when it was raining out to grab some lunch. I had the fresh turkey with lettuce tomato on a whole wheat everything bagel. Pretty standard for a bagel or deli type place. It was good, and I would go back again if it were raining out and I needed somewhere close to work to pick up lunch.

$ 9 for a turkey & swiss hero here (sub/​hoagie/​grinder)
1x9″ loaf
6 slices of turkey
3 slices of swiss
lettuce
¹⁄₈^th tomato
¹⁄₁₆^th red onion
2 tablespoons of mayo
–$ 9.00 definitely not worth the price!

Fresh baked bagels, really good.
Place is very hectic but the service is fast and efficient.
Don’t know why they charge extra for the lower fat cream cheese in the breakfast special, but bottom line is that it’s the best bagel place here around.

Coffee is very expensive here and not a really good quality. The place is small and I don’t really liked the atmosphere, it’s kinda simple and modest. I saw bagels, oatmeal and some kind of salads but we haven’t tried them. For good coffee I recommend Casella on the other side of the street. The staff is way more friendly there.

My go to bagel shop in the neighborhood. Opens early and closes late afternoon. The staff is friendly, and if you ask for a hot bagel, you won’t be disappointed.

Decent soft bagels. I ordered the eggs and cheese one for breakfast — it was OK. Not spectacular, but a pretty big size and cheap too. Come here if you want some good priced decent bagels, but they’re not anything special.

My review is only for the two different kinds of bagels I had from here (I mean their name is Pio BAGELS!). My experience with the bagels can be described as a o-​k. But sadly, I was disappointed. Not many places around here that have a variety of cream cheese to choose from. But the cream cheese lacked flavor! The scallion cream cheese and cinnamon raisin walnut cream cheese were very creamy and smooth… but where’s the filling? I would expect to be able to have good bites of scallion/​raisin and walnuts. The cream cheese are just slightly flavored is all. Also, the bagels… are a bit stiff shall I say? Not the doughy soft bagels I love to take a bite into.
Overall, not bad; but for the price maybe go somewhere else.

Decided to take a different route to work today, walked past this place and figured its time for a carb fix
Décor
Its cute and clean, ample seating space ~ room for 15 – 20 around
Food
I had a whole wheat bagel with cream cheese and lox
The bagel was soft on the inside, lightly toasted outside, and the serving of cream cheese and lox were ample. Not amazing but pretty good and definitely hit the spot
Coffee was good, not watery nor sour
Service
Quick and friendly, no complaints

4 stars for the freshly baked bagels, not the best bagels, just that they are fresh.
2 stars for their confusing price… kinda like market price
Whole wheat everything bagel with just ham is $ 3.8 + tax but sometimes is $ 5.5, sometimes could be $ 3.25…
while whole wheat everything bagel with just sausage is $ 2.5 + tax…
Ok food but not very organized…

Cute little bagel shop in downtown Brooklyn. I got a multigrain bagel with pb&j for $ 2.50 which i thought was a good deal. The bagel was appropriately chewy and soft inside and hard and crunchy outside.
Its a little bit sensory overload when I walked in between the salads, yogurts, cupcakes, greek goodies and many other things I’m probably forgetting. I had trouble sort of figuring out the ordering– paying process but was directed in the right direction by the staff. You order to the far right side of the counter and once prepared, take your food then to the cashier to pay.
They have an extensive menu up overhead but unfortunately, one of the cream cheese flavors (avocado cream cheese!) was not on the over head menu and only noted in big tubs behind glass after I had ordered.
Pretty good overall, I’d return

I don’t know what’s going on with this place now. Used to be really good. Of course they were new. Now it’s going down the hill for me. Made my order at 8:45am, it is 10:25am and nothing. I called the restaurant all I get is a busy signal.
I walked to the restaurant and was told the their Internet is out. Their phone is also out. Now I have to deal with Unilocal to get my money back. Not a good way to start my morning. Very irritated.

I am so glad they opened a bagel/​sandwich shop across the street from my office. It’s super convenient, cheap, and quick!
The staff in here are very friendly and quick at what they do. I come here a lot for a bagel breakfast and I love the array of cream cheese options available.
There’s not much seating area, so the best option would be to just grab and go.

Very happy to have such a solid bagel shop in the downtown Brooklyn neighborhood.
I’ve tried others over on Court Street and the bagels were much too doughy. The bagels at Pio Bagel, however, were excellent: soft inside, crisp outside.
Also they had the full range of cream cheese options which is always imperative. I will be coming here often! Staff was also very friendly.
