An absolute classic. Theres a reason theyve been open for decades - everything is great, made in house or brought in from the best local places. If youre looking for a quintessential Long Island bagel, this is the place.

I got some bagels here on Saturday morning and I thought for that time they would all be fresh but no such luck. One of the bagels tasted as if it was baked last night.

The best ! Reasonably priced for the area. There’s a reason why the line is out the door on most days. Great food. Friendly staff. Fast service. No bagel store around can compare.

Had a friend in S.C. order me a box of goodies from these guys. If I could give them 10 stars I would. Arrived in a little over 24 hours and enjoying everything in box. Great job, if you havent tried, you need to. The bagels r to kill for with the lox.

Hands down without a question best tasting bagels and flagels I have ever had in my life and I even got my whole family addicted to them too. Nothing compares. Not only is their food great, but it feels like a family and they are super accomodating and will do everything they can to make their customers satisfied. 100/100 would recommend.

Weve been going to Bagel Master since, well, before the kids were born... Over the last 15 years the food has been consistently delicious, with great service. Its wonderful to see small businesses that are part of the local community survive and thrive through the years. Highly recommended!

Absolutely the worst deli on Long Island. I asked the guy on the phone for two eggs and sausage on a plate and he started yelling at me. Then I got a parfait that had chunks of rotting. This place is gross and is a disgrace

Breakfast sandwich with fried eggs, avocado, green peppers extra provolone was made to perfection, WOW! Even the salt and pepper was perfect serving. Fresh ingredients, made with care AND extremely delicious!The food display case could be kept up a little better, its also old! But dining area was kept well. I was surprised there is no public restroom considering there is a dining room. Price was phenomenal! Plenty of healthy snack options. Highly recommend! I will definitely be visiting again when in area!

Review №22

I ordered the bacon egg and cheese bagel and a nova lox egg bagel. The bacon egg and cheese bagel was delicious but the nova lox bagel was way too salty. It was so salty I had to deconstruct the sandwich to remove the saltiness from the lox.

I have to say this place is not ideal if you have concerns about COVID. We called in for an order, and was told that the waiting time is 40min, and it is faster to come to the shop. We did and saw the line was huge with about 10 people on the line. I was not comfortable because the group following me has five women and its impossible for all of them to be social distancing with me. They were chatting and laughing right after me. And they were considered to be one group and occupy one spot. The shop took care of their customers very very slowly. I waited almost 6 min to move up one spot. I was stressed due to the group behind me and the line was not moving. I might end up waiting 1 hour for this. I just quit.

I have been going to Bagel Master since I first moved to Syosset, when my kids were just babies. It has been our family tradition since 1997.Bagel Master has the best tasting and freshest bagels, sandwiches and omelets that we have ever had. My grown kids always stocked-up on Bagel Master bagels when they visited from school and now, still ask me to bring them a dozen of their bagels.When I visit Bagel Master I know I am among friends. I highly recommend Bagel Maser without reservation!Excellent call-ahead service, as well!

Food is great and relatively quick service but the staff was so incredibly rude, I couldn’t hear one of them repeat my order and she repeated it in a very demeaning tone. Second time at this establishment and nothing has changed. If you can ignore the poor attitude of the staff then the food is great but personally I’d much rather go to another of the many great bagel shops in Nassau County.

Review №28

Very disappointed in the quality of the food and service at this place. I have had two bad experiences at Bagel Master. My first bad experience was when I went into the store to get a bagel and was treated so poorly by the man who helped me. He was extremely rude to me and when it was time to pay he did not even tell me the total, he just put out his hand for me to give him money. I understand that people can have bad days, so I decided not to hold it against the store. Today, I ordered a half dozen bagels through door dash and I could not believe how stale the bagels were. The bagels were so hard that I could barely cut them and my jaw was actually sore from eating it. This is so disappointing and concerning that the bagels were stale, as I ordered them early in the morning.

I am so angry and disappointed I went to Bagel Master for lunch. I waited 20 minutes for 2 Bagels only to watch as everyone would use the registered and never change their gloves these people have no concern for anyones health! We are living in a COVID19 world and there are rules in place to protect customers and employees alike. Your employees need better training! Thanks for wasting my lunch hour!

Review №30

Is my favorite place since I grew up in town but it does always take forever to get a bagel and coffee. I feel like if they hired one or two additional people that would go to significantly faster and then we wouldn’t have a line of people waiting which is not so great for COVID-19

Review №31

Fresh, perfect bagels. What a NY bagel should be! Make sure to try their sunflower flagel (flat bagel) and their tuna salad is simply the best. Dont be intimidated by the line in the morning as it moves quickly but be ready with your order to keep it moving. Nice selection of bottled beverages and local products available as well.

Review №33

Food good, pricing is fair...the wait for online/mobile order is absolutely ridiculous! The bagel master has its own pick up area...yet everytime I go in to pick up my order there is NO ONE there! It is always a long wait to get a staff members attention to pick up your food. Something that should be quick In & Out service is FAR from that!!!

Review №34

The name is very accurate. I wept stepping into this bagel bakery. Such a high level of quality and handmade care is not often seen anymore. The taste and texture of each bagel was spot on, and they had everything you would ever want to go with them. I feel if I died one of these bagels would possibly have the power to bring me back to life.

Bagel Master has the best bagels in town. They are more expensive then they were previously, but worth it. They make blintzes one day a week. You need to get them quickly because they run out after 2 or 3 days. They are also very good. This is the only place I get bagels or blintzes.

Been coming here for years. Bagel Master is the best of the best! Bagels are always hot. All the salads are always fresh. We used them a couple times for family occasions for catering and they come as planned and hook it up everytime. You can tell the owner cares about quality because hes there everyday early morning for years making sure everything is running well. I appreciate that the quality has stayed consistent for years since I started coming. All in all solid joint, great selections of spreads. This good review has been coming for years, I finally left it! Thanks to all the Team at Bagel Master

Small, tiny parking lot. But, that doesnt seem to deter the mountain of people who stand, or wait anxiously in their cars for someone to leave. Or, they park and block whoever they need too, for whatever their serving up in the Bagel Master. Anything you order is 5 star. A Tiny little spot is set up with tables and chairs. If youre a party of 4, do yourself a favor, ask for it to go. Then, prepare to play bumper cars in an effort to exit the parking lot and before they take you alive...LOL.

Went here 4 times.. they got my simple order wrong 3 of the 4 times. Egg everything with butter, two times I get an everything or a plain bagel with butter(NOT WHAT I ORDERED)...I ask for a sausage egg and cheese with SPK on a roll and I get sausage egg and cheese, no SPK.Bagel stores should NOT be named bagel master if they mess up a simple order 3 times.Will never go again and will tell friends the same.

Good tasting bagels, but this was my first and last time here worst assortment when ordering assorted ( most people put egg and cinnamon raisin but not here) not to mention I didn’t want the bagels cut but I was never asked and when I tried to change the order to bad cause they decided to cut them without asking. Will not be back again.

I tried working here for a day but I did not find my passion in bagels and coffee. I will say though that the owner(s) care about the business passionately. The standards are very high and the service is excellent, its a very clean bagel store. These people obviously know what they are doing, Ill be coming back as a customer!

I stop at this bagel store every single morning. Only for the sole reason there’s no where else to go on my way to work. I order my very simple order ahead of time and it’s never ready when I get there. Workers are also extremely rude. For the last month and a half I’ve never once got my actual order that I placed. Writing the order down and making it correctly is too much work I see. Also the price literally changes for the same meal every single day.

Bagels might be OK but they treat their workers like slaves. I stopped by for the bagel but after seeing how mean one man was to the other workers I immediately left. Felt disappointed. No man is above the other and no man is bellow the other. Just saying!

Review №72

Sitting on the train each morning, I often wondered about that glowing neon Hot Bagels sign in the distance at the Syosset station. I could go for a hot bagel I thought. Years pass and finally I find myself in Syosset on a Sunday morning. I look over, the Hot Bagels sign is once again lit, the parking lot is overflowing into the CVS and bank that border it. I find a space and go inside. This place seems chaotic at first, but you soon see theres order to the chaos, they almost work as a machine. I order a bagel with eggs and meat, expecting to wait ages like other bagel joints. The kitchen must also be a machine crew, as they cranked out a breakfast sandwich faster than expected. Im in and out in under 5 minutes, for under $5. It was a good stop.

Having moved from Long Island years ago, I have patronized Syosset Bagel twice a year for the past 30 years while visiting friends. These were the best bagels I remember anywhere. However, I am sorry to say, what were outstanding bagels are now mediocre at best. I will no longer go out of my way to visit what was Syosset Bagels.

They are gross. The same gloves they use to touch they bagels they use to touch the money and don’t change the gloves. This should be reported to the health department because that completely unsanitary.

Review №82

I like the bagels here. However, I dont understand why the employees wear gloves. They touch your food and touch the money without removing their gloves. Why wear the gloves? I think management should take action. Its simple... take your gloves off when you touch the dirty disgusting money.

Review №93

If you want to get some of the best bagels on Long Island, just follow your local white girls to Bagel Master. Every single Syosset girl frequents this establishment before school for their bagel and iced coffee. I would definitely avoid coming here between 6:30-7:30 am or you will be consumed by them. They have a huge selection of bagels and flagels (flat bagels) as well as a deli case with cold cuts and other deli specialties.I will always order a flagel, becuase it gives you a nice crispy bagel and there is more surface area to add more toppings and help make better ratios between toppings and bagel. I ordered a whole wheat flagel with two eggs and cheese. That comes with either hot chocolate, coffee, or tea, I got a hot chocolate. The bagel is perfectly chewy and flavorful and the eggs and cheese on top are done right. With a sweet cup of hot chocolate on the side it is a great deal and the perfect way to introduce someone to a great New York bagel.Be cautious of what time you come here because they are extremely crowded during lunch time and in the morning and you will wait awhile. But if you are looking for good bagels at a good price then definitely stop by and see what all the white girls are talking about.

The past few times Ive gone in there, I asked for the center to be pulled out of the bagel. Two different people making my food used the same gloves they used to handle money, the register and/or a dirty rag. I asked why they dont change gloves and was told they are not single use gloves like subway uses and a waste of money. When I told the manager how disgusting this was, not in front of customers, he got angry and wanted to fight.This place is dirty. The people that work there are dirty. Ill never go back there and would not recommend it to anyone.
