Bagel Nosh & Deli

Went with the french toast bagel based on other reviews, and I must say, it is good: not cloyingly sweet (I’m looking at you, Panera), reasonably chewy, and not too dense.
I really was not a fan of the walnut cream cheese: it didn’t seem evenly blended. It basically tasted like plain cream cheese with walnuts scattered throughout.
I’d still put Bagel Hole in Princeton Junction ahead of here (though I will concede Nosh has more variety).
Note: this place is in the shopping center and NOT the standalone building on Old Trenton Road across from Cornercopia.

One of the best bagel spots in the area. Plenty of variety and decent prices. I call my orders in when I’m a few mins away and it’s always hot and ready when I arrive. Definitely try the lox spread!

Wow. Terrific deli and bagel store! I have passed this deli close to a thousand times. I never realized what a nice deli it really is! It’s tucked away in the strip mall off of Old Trenton Road, next to the Chinese restaurant. Upon entering, I had low expectations. They suddenly vanished once I walked in. Clean deli, vast amount of varieties including specialty bagels and sandwiches. Fresh fruit. Very pleasant workstaff. It was an incredible delight! We will be coming here for breakfast and lunch very often.

I have been going to Bagel Nosh for breakfast sandwiches for the past 10 years now and its one of the few places in this area that hasn’t changed the way it’s food tastes especially after a new owner takes over. I call in advance and my sandwiches are always ready when I arrive and they have a great beverage selection as well. The staff is very friendly and welcoming, definitely a go to place for breakfast sandwiches.

Great bagels (the French toast bagel is a real crowd pleaser — get the cin-​walnut cream cheese for max. decadence), peppery/​onion/​garlic bialis are also very good and the counter girls are the sweetest! Go early in the morning when the bagels are still warm and before they run out out of French toast!

By far the BEST bagels in the area. Their bagels are big, fresh, and PERFECT. Better than Bagel Hole (which stops serving breakfast sandwiches at 11) and much better priced too. Staff is always super friendly and it is my go to bagel shop. Good selection of spreads and bagels, and their sandwich menu is huge.
5 Dollar Credit Card Minimum!

I went here once and would never come back again. The bagels are lacking in consistency and texture. It actually felt like I was just eating a hard roll. Yuck.

Best bagel place in hightstown/​east windsor. I always call ahead, and within 5 minutes my food is ready. Need some ideas for this place? An everything bagel dug out, with tuna, lettice and tomato! AMAZING. Or a flagel! A what you ask, a Flagel is a flat bagel, and this is the only bagel place I have seen that has it. Like sweet potato chips? they have that too! I have been going here for years, and they are just the best!

Bagels are ok but coffee is way overpriced and tastes very much like dirt. If you want a good bagel and good coffee head to bagel hole instead.

INTRODUCTION:
I went to Bagel Nosh for lunch and it didn’t seem too crowded and it was pretty easy to find. When I walked in the smell of fresh bagels surrounded me. I was presented with a menu of about 30 different sandwiches, while also the choice of various bagels (although fr some reason the sandwiches were not on bagels???). They also offer various deli meats that they slice for you. I ordered the «healthy sandwich». NOTE: I would have given this place a 3.5 STAR RATING if possible.
STAFF/​ENVIRONMENT:
The staff was friendly and made pretty good recommendations on what I should get when I asked them. My only concern was that they were Asian and I had to ask a few times for them to fully understand me, but it didn’t bother me that much. The environment was nice and represented a typical deli/​bagel café although be wary that there really isn’t seating available.
FOOD:
I got the healthy sandwich (that is the name) after the staff had recommended it to me. It had sliced turkey, apple slices, cranberry sauce, and lettuce served on a Kaiser roll. It tasted pretty good, but certainly wasn’t anything special. It was refreshing with the tartness of both the apples and cranberry sauce, while still maintaining a level of sweetness. The turkey helped balance the flavors out, but I would have liked to see a better sauce — especially since the cranberry sauce tasted (and probably was) canned. They seemed to have great selection for everyone from the vegetarian to the health freak.
PRICE:
The one flaw that I saw in this upscale deli was the price. For the $ 6 that I paid I was left wanting a little bit more.
CONCLUSION:
All in all, I was disappointed by the price and lack of modern flair. Although the selection was great and the flavors played nicely, there was nothing special about it. I might return if I want average food for an OK price, which doesn’t happen too often, if ever.

I’m married to a New Yorker and we both love this place! My husband is from Long Island, so whenever we head north of DC, we always look for good bagels and pizza.
My sister recently moved to Princeton, so we checked out Unilocal reviews for good bagel places. We passed 4 bagel places on the way to Bagel Nosh, and when we got there, the line was out the door. It was worth every penny. The only reason why I didn’t give it 5 stars was because of the service. They did mess up my sister’s sandwich order, but I think it’s because they had 2 people working the register and only one guy in the back making bagel sandwiches, toasting bagels, etc. If we were the only ones in there I think they would’ve gotten our order right.
I took another Unilocal reviewers advice and tried the french toast bagel with butter. AWESOME! I normally like sesame or everything bagels, but the french toast bagel was the best. Looking forward to coming back!

I happen to work next to Bagel Nosh, however I’ve driven past countless other bagel shops on my off-​days to obtain the goodness they produce. They have a wide selection of delicious bagels, my favorite being the garlic, which has about infinite more times as much garlic than what other places offer. For lunch, my most frequented items are the veggie wrap which consists of a bunch of grilled and juicy veggies served with warm hummus in a delicious wrap, and the diet tuna wrap, which is better than any full fat tuna I could ever make, and dotted with tiny carrots and seasoned just right.
My coworkers RAID this place at lunch time and Nosh offers probably about 30 specialty sandwich combinations. These span from their version of Rutgers fat sandwiches to very healthy options. Every time I enter Nosh, they seem to carry a new brand of potato chip and snack food, which is also fun. They have a lot of interesting treats such as Yan Yan and Hello Panda for sale. Although I only really drink water, they seem to also have a HUGE variety of drinks.
Service is great and so friendly, and Nosh constantly offers new selections, such as delicious looking lox, which I will probably eat first thing tomorrow.

BEST FIND EVER! I make sure to go here every time im in the area… unique sandwiches huuuuge selection, super fresh, friendly people working there. I made a Unilocal account just so I can rave about this place. If you’re looking for an awesome sandwich, go!

Great fresh tasty bagels here. I smelled the bacon cooking. They sold me on the sizzle. Nice staff… Boars Head cold cuts… large variety to go.

I have been here too many times to count, and I must say I love the variety of different types of bagels and food items in general they offer. I especially love the Flagels (flat bagels) and the whole wheat everythings. They also have a good variety of healthy options both for drinks and food. Very friendly service and close to home. A+ in my book
