New York Bagel Bakery at 7555 Haverford Ave is a straightforward, no-frills bagel shop that feels like a slice of New York nestled in the Philly suburbs. This is the kind of place where the bagels are the real focus—freshly boiled and baked throughout the day, with that characteristic chewy texture and just the right amount of crusty bite. If you’re someone who holds New York bagels as the gold standard, you’ll find their offerings stand up to those expectations without the fuss.

This bakery is best for anyone looking to grab a genuine, well-made bagel—whether a plain bagel with cream cheese, a sesame bagel, or the more classic bagel and lox. They also serve baked goods like chocolate chip muffins and croissants, which locals note are moist and satisfying additions to the lineup. The cream cheeses—plain, scallion, olive, vegetable, and lox flavors—are made in-house, adding a fresh, personal touch that customers appreciate.

The atmosphere here is warm and inviting, shaped largely by the small, family-run nature of the business. You’re likely to be greeted by sincere, attentive owners who strike a balance between friendly and efficient. It’s the kind of spot that many locals visit not just for the quality food but for the consistently genuine customer service. The vibe is casual and busy, especially during morning hours when folks stop in for breakfast or to pick up fresh bagels for the day.

This bakery also makes bialys if you ask ahead—a less common offering that adds some variety for those who want to try something beyond the typical bagel. Because they bake continuously, the bagels are almost always fresh, making it a reliable stop whether you’re grabbing a quick bite before work or bringing home extras to freeze and enjoy later.

New York Bagel Bakery works well for early risers and breakfast lovers, especially those who appreciate traditional Jewish-style baked goods without waiting in long lines or driving into the city. Its location near local shopping makes it convenient for picking up a sweet or savory snack while running errands, and the friendly service turns a quick stop into a small, familiar moment in the neighborhood’s morning rhythm.

Their bagels are so great, not like anything else around the Philly suburbs. I found New York Bagel Bakery by accident while shopping across the street for a cake at a bakery. These are the best bagels by far in this area. I plan to make a regular visit to try other menu items. Also, I didn't realize until after I left that they also bake bialies.

Stopped by New York Bagel Bakery and was blown away! The bagels are fresh, chewy, and perfectly baked, with plenty of options to choose from. Rayyan and Tareq run the place with such genuine warmth—you can really feel the care they put into both the food and the customer experience. It’s the kind of spot that makes you want to come back again and again. Highly recommend grabbing breakfast or a quick bite here!

My new favorite bagel place, and I'm from NY so have high standards! A friendly, warm, family-run business that is highly attuned to customer service, and it's a pleasure going there. The bagels are continually made throughout the day, and are always fresh and tasty. Their spreads are also made-in house and are great. Skip the chains and fancier places, and head to this hidden gem of a place. You'll be glad.

Their bagels are so fresh that I took some to freeze since I live in a different city. I froze them, and they taste just as good as fresh whenever I heat them up. Their cream cheese is out of this world. I’m also in love with their chocolate chip muffins they’re so moist and delicious. I highly recommend this place, and the staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming.

These are the best bagels in Philly. We have been struggling with bagel deficiency after moving from NYC to Philly until we found this bagel oasis. We drive 30 mins to come here. The bagels are crisp on the outside with a soft chewy interior. The customer service is excellent. The staff is extremely kind and welcoming.

I live about 15 minutes away from NY Bagels and the drive is so worth it. Been eating these bagels for about a year now almost everyday they are always fresh and warm. Dear bagels lovers, this is heaven.
