Worth the wait

Nice selection of vegan bagels (not all of their bagels or vegan) and tofu based cream cheese, Like everyone else says, it’s a long line, but I found it moved fast

Great bagel!

The line was crazy long, so order ahead! The bagel was excellent. Plenty of vegan cream cheeses. There was like 5-6 options. The only option though is a bagel with cream cheese. I got the rainbow bagel with blueberry cream cheese and it was excellent. Pretty sweet but good. I wouldn’t get coffee from here though…

Really good bagel, lots of tofu spread options

I got a sesame with spinach and artichoke. The bagel tasted fresh, good chew, good size. They absolutely stuffed the thing with cream cheese. It was a meal for sure. A man who I assume was the owner was also greeting customers and handing out stickers. Great vibe.

Good NY bagels!

Good NY bagels with tofu cream cheese! Many bagel options and cream cheese flavor. I had the everything bagel and the cinnamon raisin bagel which were both vegan according to the staff.

Bagels with tofu cream cheese options

The bagels were bigger than I expected and there were 8 vegan fillings, all tofu based. There's a limited sitting area.

good bagels for vegans

I loved the multiple options of vegan cream cheese, quick service and perfect spot to go to with your vegan or non vegan friends (something for everyone!) - they do put a LOT of cream cheese on which can be heavy. Overall would defiantly come back again!

Très très bon

Option vegan en créant son propre bagel parmis une sélection de crèmes et sauces vegan ainsi que différentes garnitures végétales... Le pain bagel est hyper moelleux et généreusement bien garnie. J'y suis allée deux fois et je n'ai pas été déçu une seule fois. Je recommande vivement pour les fans de bagel, par contre il faudra être patient car la file d'attal est longue, ce qui n'est pas surprenant

Pros: Saveur , Option vegan, Quantité

Zero stars if possible

Don't go here if you're vegan. Options are available but they don't care about ensuring your order is correct (which mine was not). If you're ordering a vegan option with others that are not, be cautious of cross contamination. Someone in my group ordered a bagel with butter, and the butter was all over every other bagel. Just go somewhere else if you're vegan.

Cons: Incorrect Order , Cross Contamination

Convenient and tasty bagels

They open at 6am so we came here before catching our early train from Penn. I got the whole wheat everything with veggie tofu shmear and it was very good—good topping coverage. My partner says this is currently his favorite New York bagel.

Pros: Lots of bagel options, Vegan tofu cc flavors

Cons: Tofutti is not my favorite vegan shmear

Tofu cream cheese

If you miss the classic New York cream cheese schmear, this is the place. Bagels are great and they have a choice of multiple tofu spreads.

Pros: Good bagels, Multiple tofu cream cheese choices

Tofu spreads!!

Bagels were great. Rainbow bagels are a hit with the kids.
The tofu spreads though.
Got a pound of strawberry spread. Exactly perfect.
They had artichoke, scallion, plain, strawberry and blueberry (maybe more). Grabbed bagels to freeze.
Very happy about this place. Would def go back.

Pros: Lots of options, Solid bagels, Great spreads.

anyway last night i toasted 1 of the everything bagels and added some of the tofu scallion cc and omg. so yum !! a real bagel !! ahh i swear my eyes watered a little !! and the cc was indistinguishable !! super yum. i luv this place !! plz label the menu w the vegan bagels !! itd rly mean a lot !! thx sm 4 the delicious bagels and caring staff^^ will b back !!

Mediocre but quick and easy

I was happy to see vegan options, but me and my friends didn’t love our bagels. They just weren’t great.

good strawberry cream cheese but the rest are just ok

wide variety of tofu cream cheeses. i've had 4 of the cream cheeses. strawberry is the best, blueberry is good but a little sweet, and the scallion and spinach & artichoke ones were pretty bland

Delicious variety of tofu cream cheese

Wide selection of tofu cream cheese and almost all vegan bagels. Cream cheese has an excellent texture and there is no upcharge. Busy and cramped but cheap, very good value. Bagel pictured was 5$ after tax

Had a bagel with spinach and artichoke tofu spread. The flavour was as present as I had hoped. But still very good! They have multiple places

Wide selection of vegan tofu cream cheeses

They have several vegan tofu cream cheese (both sweet and savory) and most of their bagels are vegan, too. I haven't had many bagels elsewhere before but I definitely liked them at Liberty Bagels. Very affordable, too! The cream cheese is quite heavy for a vegan one, so it makes a quite substantial snack.

Pros: Several different vegan cream cheeses

Good Bagels

Ordered a variety of bagels. Online ordering closed (busy Sunday around Christmas time) so we waited about 20 mins for the food. Toasted salt with vegan scallion cream cheese and salt with vegan spinach artichoke cream cheese. Salt bagels were incredibly salty but bagels were really good.

Bagels

I think the hype on the bagels at this location is a bit overrated. I got an everything bagel with tofu scallion and it was very basic. In fact, I only took a few bites and threw it away and went to a different bagel shop instead.

I liked Bagel Bobs when I was in town last month (June). Absolute Bagels are another I like and Tompkins Square Bagels were also good when I was in NYC in May. Poundie would probably be the best person to ask since he lives in NYC and has probably been to most bagel shops! 😊

Vegans will love this place

Many vegan tofu “cream cheeses” to choose from. Better than any cream cheese I remember from my vegetarian days. Thick and delicious. Definitely tasted house made. The bagels are hand made as well and some of the best I’ve had. A true NY bagel. My hubby is not a bagel fan (can you believe it), but they had at least two vegan sandwiches that could be done on rolls. The place was packed, and the line was down the block, but they had an employee directing traffic., and everything moved along efficiently. There are only a few cafe tables outside and bar seating inside along some walls. Next time we plan to order ahead and pickup at their door. But I’m glad we experienced the inside. The display of cream cheese and spreads and toppings was impressive to see.

Pros: Options, Flavor, Fun

Incredible Bagels and Tofutti Options!

Bagels here are SO GOOD. Also—so many tofutti options! It is rare to see flavors like blueberry and strawberry, so that is really cool! My mom and I split a rainbow bagel with strawberry and an everything with artichoke—incredible. Worth the line for sure.

Pros: Lots of vegan cream cheese options, Incredible bagels
