I used to get bagels from here all the time, but with the spotty service and mediocre bagels I stopped coming. Also place needs to be updated and cleaned.

I usually avoid this place in favor of the MUCH better Northfield Bagel at the 280 exit near Main Street. I have always found Bagel Box too soft and doughy with no nice crust like a good bagel should have. The service can be very spotty and place never looks clean. Also, their parking lot is a joke — tiny and very difficult to access. But today the police had the Northfield /Wheeler Street area blocked off, so I had no choice. I ordered a sesame bagel while my son(acting as delivery boy) got an egg sandwich. When he got home I knew something was very wrong by the smell as soon as I began to open the bag. Sure enough, the simpletons had given me an «everything» bagel instead of the sesame I ordered. How dumb can you be? I tried a bite but the garlic overwhelmed the subtle taste of the smoke fish. I ended up scraping the lox and cream cheese onto some bread and trashing the nasty bagel. Hopefully the police fix whatever is wrong on Northfield Ave so I can get a decent bagel again. Until then skipping them is preferable to this garbage.

Never get anything to eat here! This was my first time there. I ordered a simple toasted cinnamon raisin bagel with cream cheese and my boyfriend ordered a toasted plain bagel with cream cheese. While waiting for our bagels to get toasted, because only one side of there double toaster was working. We watched an employee drag a garbage can with his gloves clean the whole counter with a dirty rag then wipe off the knife he used to cut our bagels with the same dirty rag. He grabbed our bagels with his dirty gloves. That made my stomach turn, we ended up throwing out our bagels and going to another bagel store. What’s the purpose of wearing gloves if your going to drag a garbage can and clean with them on. Then clean the counter with a dirty rag then wipe your knife with it! This place is a health code violation. Don’t eat here unless you want a bagel with dirt all over it. Simply gross! It gets one star because I couldn’t post without adding it, not because it deserved it.

The bagel box is not closed for business! This spot has good fresh bagels and is my go to for a quick, easy satisfying breakfast. My only complaint is that they don’t offer beef or turkey sausage or bacon… not everyone wants swine people.

The worst everything bagel I’ve ever had. I didn’t even want to eat it all. No flavor, almost taste like the kind you get in the food store.

It was a great place but I went there this morning and discovered it was seized for non-payment of taxes. RIP Bagel Box.

One morning I went in around 7 to get a few bagels and there was a mouse running around on the counter. Needless to say I cancelled my order. Wish all places adopted the letter grading system NYC has for restaurants

I used to go there all the time but the service has really gone down hill. There are a lot of bad reviews for this place here on Unilocal but most of them didn’t make it into the«recommended reviews» section, but most of them are true. My biggest complaint is they can’t get my order right, and I only order one thing: fried egg bacon and cheese on a roll, pepper ketchup. A couple months ago when they screwed up my order I told the guy who seemed to be the manager that they get my order wrong all the time. He said«ok». Last time I went in there, they screwed it up, making me late for work while I waited for them to fix it, then screwed it up again. Even though I had paid, I put the sandwich on the counter and told them forget it, I was already late for work. I’ll never be back there again. I gave two starts because the food is good.

We used to come here all the time but the service has really deteriorated over the years. I don’t understand how a bagel place runs out of bagels at 11am on a Saturday. If you go to Bagelwich just down the street, the owners would NEVER let that happen. That happens all the time here, and also when it gets to be about 11:30 to 12:00 on the weekends they stop making taylor ham sandwiches. It’s poorly run, poorly managed, and not the cleanest place either. They’ve only survived this long because they are in a great location for bagels. Take your business elsewhere!

The bagel box is by far the best bagel in town. Friendly staff and quick service. Plus very reasonably priced. I recommend to everyone !

Good bagels, but they only have a 4-slice toaster so it takes forever for a toasted bagel! I usually have to call in my order for pick up!

Good sandwiches and great Bagels. No inside seating so you’ll have to grab and go! Service could be a little friendlier but the Bagels are awesome and the variety and quality of sandwiches and food is very high! Going to be a regular visit for our family!

Do you enjoy paying for something you something you didn’t order? Well this is the place for you!

We like this place and come here pretty often on the weekend. Their sandwiches are big and they give you a lot of everything which is good so you get more for your money and it fills you up. I like the bagels and variety of cream cheeses, especially the veggie cream cheese. Yum. The reason it lost a star is because there are one or two employees who can’t handle a rush and will take forever to get my order together and to ring me up. Their system is a little out of whack for when they want you to pay and where they want you to wait…

After living in Manhattan and eating H&H bagels, no bagel in Jersey had come close to them. But Bagel Box is the closest to that big perfect H&H — big and crispy outside, soft inside. Good flavor selection here, blueberry, choc. chip, Black Russian(Pumpernickel) some whole grains and even cheddar or jalapeño. They even have flavored cream cheeses and fish salads by the pound prepacked to go. They’ll make you a sandwich of tuna, light tuna, coldcuts or chicken on a bagel of your choice. They have cold drinks or coffee as well. It’s a small shop, so beware sometimes you may have a wait as other customers order a bunch of sandwiches or salads to take out. I’m not sure if you can call in an order in advance, but that would be helpful.

Oh Bagel Box, I love you. Fresh bagels, amazing Service and the food is great! I remember this restaurant from high school. We’d be late to school because The Bagel Box was our priority at 8 am, not Math class. =-/I love that they have a great variety of bagels verses just the average plain, blueberry, and grain. They also have a window of prepared foods like eggplant, cold pasta, chicken cutlets, and much, much, more. Grab a breakfast sandwich, a coffee, and a bench at the park. You’ll love it!

I was between 2 and 3 stars. This place is pretty overrated in my opinion. I have a high standard for bagels and Bagel Box did not meet it. First of all, they didn’t label their bagels and they were set back far from the counter so I couldn’t tell which was which. The service was okay. We only waited about 5 minutes but the bagels were definitely a disappointment. I like my bagel to be big and fluffy. These were small and thin, and they did not seem very fresh. We ordered Taylor ham, egg and cheese on an everything and pumpernickel with veggie cream cheese. Both were just ok. I wouldn’t go back.

Went in to grab a quick lunch and they had nothing left after tossing everything for the day. They weren’t supposed to close for another two hours. They reluctantly scrounged up a grilled cheese for me.
