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

Stuffed!!

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.

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

Many tofu cream options

I loved that you can choose the bagel and the filling- all vegan fillings are cream cheese made with tofu and seasoned differently. The rainbow bagel is a feast to eyes! The bagel dough is a bit heavy for my taste (can be hard to chew), so make sure to share if you’re not too hungry.

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Fair price

Several options and quick service

They have several vegan cream cheeses and bagels from which you can choose. They were packed when I went, but yet the line moved quickly and my food was ready quickly as well. I got the cinnamon raisin bagel with tofu cinnamon walnut raisin cream cheese and it was great! I had to take it back to my hotel as there was nowhere to sit or even stand to eat. That worked out well though, because the bagel was so large I couldn't finish it and I saved the rest for later. It's definitely a good amount of food for the price. I will go back to Libery Bagels next time I'm in NYC, for sure!

Pros: Several vegan options, Quick service, Good value

Cons: Small space

Delicious!

Clean, fast service, and has plenty of options. Some cream cheese flavors don't have a vegan equivalent, but what they have is outstanding.

Pros: Clean, Fast service, Great bagels

Cons: Wish there were more vegan equivalents

Very quick

Mostly vegan bagels with plenty of vegan cream cheese. Bagels are ready quickly. I ordered my go-go, an everything bagel and also an onion. I forgot the cream cheese I ordered but liked them both. I really love bagels do am happy to visit NY were choices are plentiful. #Veganuary

Came back!

So there are so many vegan options it’s impossible not to like this place. BUT! If I’m honest, the bagels are underwhelming for me. I like a crisp bagel - not a chewy bagel. First time I came I got my bagel toasted. This time double toasted! Still chewy. My spouse’s everything bagel was better than my cinnamon raisin, so maybe it’s bagel type dependent? The walnut-cinnamon vegan cream cheese was delicious!

Pros: So many vegan options, Small, local place

Cons: Chewy cinnamon raisin bagel

Great bagels

Lots of tofu based cream cheese options to add to lots of different bagels.
We had cinnamon raisin bagel with the cinnamon walnut cream cheese (great I’d you love cinnamon like me!) and the everything bagel with the tofu spinach and artichoke cream cheese.

Amazing place with lots of vegan options

It's a traditional NY bagel/sandwich place that is very busy but that works like a clock. I had the Mediterranean bagel and another Garlic one with Tofu Spinach creamcheese. They were both delicious.

Vegan options aren't clearly marked and if it's your first time there, it may take a while to understand the menu. But all bagels are vegan, so it's basically either choose one of the vegan sandwiches or pick any bagel type with some of the vegan creamcheese options.

Pros: Nice vegan options, Delicious, Great service (works like a swiss clock)

Cons: Vegan options could be clearly marked, Complicated menu, Few places to seat
