Sam's Bagels & Deli

Was in the area and found this hidden gem. Bagel was delicious and service really in point. I’ll definitely come back when I’m in the area. -S

I ordered a bacon, egg, and cheese on a bagel with salt, pepper, and ketchup for $6.50. But the bagel arrived cold and untoasted. Worse, the cheese was barely melted, sliding around unmelted—total regret for the price.

My boys and I had an hour to kill before a Dr. appt in Paramus. They wanted bagels and Sam’s came up on Google Maps with good reviews. I was not familiar with the area but took a chance. My kids loved their bagels and I had a veggie omelette that was good and not greasy at all (huge plus). Great spot to grab a sandwich or eggs.

I had an everything bagel with plain cream cheese. The bagel texture is good -- soft and chewy with a slight crunch to the outside. I was a bit disappointed that the everything bagel barely had any of the "everything" on it, as you can see from my pictures. Just a light dusting of the toppings, barely more than a plain bagel.

The service is quick, ice coffee is great (ice cubes are coffee so coffee doesn’t get diluted) , and bagels are soft! I had a bacon, egg and cheese and it was delicious! The staff is very polite and nice.
