This is our third order from Ess-a-Bagel. The bagels arrived wrapped very well and are fresh. We love these bagels. Our friends think we're crazy for ordering them online but we don't have a bagel shop in our town and the Ess-a-Bagels are the best. We ordered the lox cream cheese and as always, it's very good. We really enjoy these gigantic bagels.

Thank you for helping me to make my best friend's Hanukkah a little brighter and a lot more delicious. She recently moved with her family to Atlanta from NYC, and bagels from Ess-a-Bagel are a really welcome taste of home for these holiday mornings. Goldbelly always comes through to help me spread some TLC when it's needed, you are the best!

I was super happy with how quickly my order was shipped. We ordered NYC bagels and cream cheese. The bagels were very tightly wrapped and the cream cheese was packed with an icepack. I fully understand that we were paying more for the bagels but it was well worth it to get my Mom some authentic NYC bagels and cream cheese.

The bagels from Ess-a-Bagel were delicious! They were packed tightly in plastic film and ready for short term freezer storage. We had some fresh the day they arrived and then some that had been frozen with no change in flavor or texture.

We were born & raised in NY, lived there for almost 60 yrs. but retired to southern Maryland. It's great here but there is no good NY food. Your bagels were a gift from a friend, the best gift ever. They were huge & delicious & had lots of toppings and were the right consistency of a NY bagel ! I will definitely order them again, maybe right this minute !

Having access to shipping my favorite NYC bagels, having them individually wrapped and shipped overnight to ME-what is not to like?

The order was perfect! The lox and the cream cheese was packed so the cream cheese and lox were still chilled. The bagels were wrapped well to keep them fresh. The cookies were a sweet treat and each one was still in one piece - no crumbles. The timing of delivery was spot on and arrived at our door at lunch time. And of course, everything was tasty! We will definitely be ordering from Ess-a-Bagel again!

Bagels and cream cheeses arrived when expected. Everything was packaged well, with bagels wrapped in twos and cream cheeses in an insulated pack with frozen gel packs. We have eaten at Ess-a-Bagel in NYC and were really excited to be able to get their bagels delivered at home. They’re just as good as I remembered - real New York bagels!

The bagels I ordered showed up on time, freshly made, packaged perfectly. Also the couple cream cheese flavors I ordered were packaged perfect too. All of it was shipped in just the right size box. Order showed up fast and my wife LOVED it! There was even a page in the box that suggested to slice the bagels before freezing them if you have to. We have found that to be a very lovely helpful suggestion.

Bagels, cream cheese and nova was well packed and the fish tasted fresh. Traveling to Florida in 90 degree heat, it was very impressive for the fish to arrive still cold and tasted like it was just cut off the filet.It was all delicious, just as if I would have picked it up at Ess-A myself.
