David’s Bagel

Probably the last time I will ever go here, a simple order and messed up. I only ordered a plain bagel with butter toasted. How I got a bagel with cream cheese is beyond me. I understand if it’s busy but if I’m the only one in the store, there is no reason. Also I’ve come here many times before and order the same thing and the price is never the same.

Not happy at all i stopped by on the way to my dentist and the first thing in noticed when i went inside was that the bagels were small. Secondly as the gentleman smeared the cream cheese on the bagel it looked like he didn’t put that much on which was confirmed after i paid for the bagel and took a bite. And speaking of paying it was 6.40 for a small bagel with barely any cream cheese and a iced coffee. Not happy wont be stopping here again

I received a coupon in the mail for 16 bagels for the price of a dozen, so I decided to give this place a try. I went at noon, after breakfast but right around lunch. Unfortunately, their supplies were very limited, and they only had a few types of bagels left. While I understand they may not have as many bagels as they would during breakfast hours, I would think that they’d have a wider selection right at lunchtime. After I was done picking out my 16 bagels, they barely had any bagels left in the entire store (I actually purposely took fewer plain bagels than I intended, to avoid depleting their supply of plain bagels).
As for the bagels themselves, they were unremarkable. The plain bagels had a very crisp outer crust, which I love, but the flavor was hit-​and-​miss. Some of the bagels barely had any flavor, and felt more like eating generic bread, rather than a true New York bagel. The whole wheat bagels were okay, but nothing special. I liked the rye bread bagel, though I don’t have much of a point of comparison since I rarely ever get rye bagels elsewhere. The cinnamon raisin bagels were good, on the whole.
The bagels at Rockland Bakery and Zimi’s are better overall, and their selection is miles and miles better.

I’ve been frequenting this store for years, as I’m from the area and work nearby. I’ve just had my last meal from David’s.
I’ve never had a GREAT meal from this place, although I’ve had good (enough) bites in the past. I’ve had my orders prepared erroneously many a time, but this isn’t a five star establishment so that is inevitable, at least periodically.
Previously, my low point was ordering a bagel sandwich and finding human hair in not one, but both halves of the sandwich. Today, I’ve reached an even deeper nadir: I just ordered a bagel with tuna, cheese and lettuce, and paid $ 8.01.
The quality, taste and ingredients of this sandwich don’t even come close to being worth that exorbitant price. How could it?! Whilst Rockland County is an affluent enough area, such a disgraceful price is an insult.
I will never return to this location, and urge the rest of you to find better/​cheaper/​tastier local alternatives. Rockland Bakery and Nyack Bagels come to mind.

Bagels keep getting smaller and smaller and don’t seem so fresh. Coffee used to be great. Now it’s so bad it makes me sick to my stomach. Not impressed

Their bagels are pretty good. They seem to make their bagels everyday, quite fresh. The only downside is, they don’t know how to enable closed captions in their public television.

This place is crap, what a shame they over charge you for things that are included in what you order

So when you are from NY, you are automatically a bit of a bagel snob. If you are from Rockland, LI, Westchester, or NYC itself, you are even MORE of a bagel snob. I’ve been in the NY area pretty much my entire life, and I think I’m a pretty good judge of what makes a good bagel, and what doesn’t. This place is good — not great, but definitely good. They are a chain I believe, but only locally. They have a variety of bagels — I’ve had plain, everything, seasame, and poppy. All of which are worth trying. The cream cheese variety is great — and is quite frankly why I go here. I go here for the tofu based cream cheese that they carry — which makes eating a bagel as a lactard easier on the tummy. They do carry baked goods which I’ve never tried — I do enjoy their coffee from time to time, and occassionaly have a semi-​passable hot chocolate. If you are around West Nyack, and want a good bagel, stop by. I wouldn’t drive here from out of town to eat.

This place is just OK. Had an egg and cheese there and asked for salt and pepper. They UNLOADED their pepper container on my sandwich. The roll was crusty (not in the delicious way — the old way), and the cheese was cold. Drive 30 seconds down the road to get an egg and cheese at Rockland Bakery. It’s better AND less expensive.
