Manhattan Bagel

I have always loved the bagels from here and the egg and cheese breakfast sandwich never disappoints. Drinks are a bit pricey but hey compared to Starbucks it’s nothing. Great place!

I’ve always loved Manhattan Bagel and their delicious food and high quality. What I don’t love is this specific location due to the rude and unprofessional owner/​mgr. this «gentleman» also runs/​ran the Abington, which I no longer patronize either. Yelling at your employees in front of customers is inappropriate. Having to repeat your order because he’s focused on everything but your business is disappointing. This occurred on multiple visits.
I have lots of choices for breakfast where my business is valued. Love the food, don’t love this location.

Pretty well managed now that there’s a differ owner.
The food is always fresh and they get it out pretty quick. I usually get the Ellis Island on everything bagel.
This is a very tasty sandwich, I do wish they put a few more slices in there. Sometimes the sandwich does feel a bit cheap but it’s still very tasty and comes out very hot.
They have a good assortment of bagels and their bagels are very flavorful.
This is a pretty nice spot to stop by, grab a quick, fresh breakfast and roll out.

Had a terrible experience a couple weeks ago at this Manhattan Bagel in North Wales PA. Specifically with the older Russian guy that took over the place and runs it. I’ve been a regular customer there, literally for years.
On this Sunday morning around 7:15am when I stopped in to pickup some bagels, his attempt at customer service included chiding me for paying with a debit card. He initially asked if I had cash, which I didn’t. I was fine with that, and very polite. He did take my card and process the payment, but then he instructed me that he would prefer me to pay with cash in the future. I told him again, very politely that I normally use my debit card for all my purchases, and that I was essentially paying him with cash directly from my bank account. He chose to then tell me that NO it was not cash, and wanted to continue to instruct me in some way about how how to pay when I visit his store, and I guess, his dislike for some fee he may incur when accepting debit cards presented as payment.
I chose to walk out with my bagels and not get further into this silly discussion. It was pretty inappropriate.
I can tell you that I will not return to this store. The bagels are good, but I can get the same quality bagels at MB’s Chalfont location, and not have to deal with an Owner/​Manager/​cashier that chooses to argue with customers about how they pay.

Always a pleasure. The older Russian (?) guy that runs the register is a really, really nice guy. Prices are definitely a bit high but the food quality is top-​notch for this style. Some of the other employees can be a little bit less than professional. I once saw 2 girls making out hard core as they made the food — and they were gross.

I got the Nova lox bagel. Toasted sesame bagel with plain cream cheese, lots of smoked salmon, capers, cucumbers, and onions. Super yummy. The service was great, and they gave me a punch card: if you buy enough lunch bagels, you get one free.
I hesitate to take off a star, but the bagels are a little pricey for me (6.99 for mine).

This was my first time at Manhattan bagel and I most admit I haven’t had service like this in a while. The cashier Iliyas customer service was very pleasant. I didn’t let the cashier know this was my first visit. I was given coupons (which I love) and told about their deals and also how I saved two dollars on lunch. My food was awesome and I like that they sell turkey bacon. I would recommend others just as I was recommend by my sister to try MB out.

The transformation to a first rate bagelry and the duplication of the quality existent in their Willow Grove location at 611 and Park Avenue warms the heart to go with the bagels.
Freshness and taste are exemplary. Staff is congenial.
So glad they took over this facility. YUM!!!

Stopped at this store today in the AM along with other customers. My order was given to another customer by mistake. The customer immediately returned and informed a person that seemed to be in charge of the mistake and found his order. Then calling out my order again, he tried to give me the same item that the previous customer returned. He was a bit surprised that I would not take the order that had LEFT the store and I wanted him to remake the order. No STANDARDS at this store, I will NOT go back… BEWARE…

This location is now under new ownership. If it’s been 6 months since your last visit all the shortcomings have been fixed.
The new owner is more experienced and has the staff to handle the rush hour crowds surprisingly very fast.
The quality of food is consistent to all the other Manhattan Bagel’s I’ve been to so if you like their food you won’t be disappointed at this location.

The worst place I’ve ever been to. Terrible service. The owner/​manager/​cashier (don’t know his title) is extremely rude to customers. There’s a D&D across the street, a panera bread and a diner nearby. Think twice before you go to this place!!!

First, they were pushy with me when I just wanted some time to think about what I wanted. The prices are ridiculous (which I realize is the chain’s fault, not this particular franchise); I spent $ 8 on a bagel sandwich and an 8 oz OJ!
The real kicker is that when I finally got my «egg white and turkey bacon» bagel sandwich, it only had 1 slice of BURNT turkey bacon and one egg white. That was it. The entire sandwich! Unbelievable. I will never ever eat there again.

So, seven months after my prior visit, I saw that the place is under new management. Its location is perfect for my morning commute breakfast, so I decided to give it another try.
The place is as good as such places get. Service was fast, but not sloppy. People behind the counter were smiling and strangely full of energy.
I got lox and cream cheese on a toasted sesame bagel, it was done perfectly. I did not get skimped on lox, the bagel was toasted warm and not burned. The only mistake was that the bottom portion of the bagel had ¹⁄₈ inch left uncut, but a quick pull by my bear hands cured that problem.
While seating and eating there, I saw about half dozen other patrons come inside and place their orders. Regular was in and out in a minute, newer people thought long and got their orders done very expediently after placing them.
Overall, it is a very good place to stop by when needing a bagel shop.

I would give this sorry excuse for a Manhattan Bagel zero stars if I could. Stopped in to grab coffee and a bagel with cream cheese and ended up waiting over 25 minutes for my food. No excuse/apology/“miss, your order is coming up.” There were only 5 customers (with normal-​sized orders, not catering) in front of me! The place itself is tiny and not very clean. There is minimal seating and the tables were dirty and covered with crumbs and used napkins. They do not take any national offers (not a big deal) and don’t make any of the special bagels like the CA powerbagel, chocolate chip, asiago, onion (not even a special variety!), or bialys or bagel sticks, ALTHOUGH they DO list them on the menu, along with prices (much bigger deal). The coffee was cold (it had obviously been sitting in the carafe for a long time) and barely passed as colored water; usually, the House Blend is medium-​bodied and decently flavored. The coffee here was incredibly weak and tasted off. I would almost venture that they used a generic/​less expensive coffee blend and just passed it off as the official blend. The everything bagel was so salty that I had to guzzle 2 whole bottles of Nestle Pure Life in my car. And I hate drinking plain water! It was also way too dough and did not have the nice characteristic shell (the entire reason for going to a Manhattan Bagel in the first place versus Brueggers or Einstein’s or Panera’s). It came to $ 4.54 for a small coffe wannabe and a barely edible bagel with cream cheese that I threw away half of. Avoid at all costs and go to Panera’s across the street.
