Ever since I have come here with my family, it's the only place we get bagels from and one of the only places we get egg sandwiches from.
Food: I cannot say just how much I love the bagels here! They're made fresh every single day, the texture is so soft and fluffy even after a couple days, and they taste fantastic. Bagels from many places taste like dishwater to me for some reason, but not this place. Try to get a bagel that is fresh hot from the oven, those are the best! My family always comes here to order egg sandwiches too. I will admit, the price is off-putting, but the business is family-owned, I'd be more than happy to support a local business, and the food is delicious. They certainly care about their quality. I believe you also get a free coffee with the breakfast sandwiches.
Service: Everybody I have met here are always smiling and having a good time, which goes to show how positive the work environment is. My only complaint, however, is somebody keeps forgetting to put ketchup on our egg sandwiches.
Atmosphere: Listen to me here: you're not meant to come here for the atmosphere, you're meant to come to come here for the food. The inside can feel cramped; beware of that. But the flow of customers coming in and going out is smooth. There are a few neat displays of old television characters as well.
If I were to recommend any bagels in the world, it would be those from County Hot Bagels. The egg bagels are just too good!

I’d like to give the customers a different perspective because I was also a worker at country hot bagels for years. Let me start off by saying that the owner (Neil) is one of the best people I’ve ever known. Also, the other gentlemen baking the bagels are EXTREMELY nice and respectful. The owner and the two bakers are on a whole different level when it comes to making the bagels and other foods they offer like flavored cream cheese’s etc. My experience working there will be forever ingrained into my fondest memories. I’ve never had a better work environment or a better boss and I haven’t worked there in approximately 15-20 years! The food is otherworldly and the workers and surrounding people are basically a family. I could walk in there tomorrow and still feel at home. That’s the type of place Country Hot Bagels was, and I’m sure it still is. Please stop in to support one of the best establishments I’ve ever come across!
This shop has some of the best Bagels on Long Island with zero competition providing identical quality. The Staff are stellar and extremely organized with managing customer flow and the associated orders.
Note:: Anticipate a line out of the door if you're running late or not an early bird.

Delicious fresh bagels - often warm out of the oven. The $9 lox and cream cheese bagel is huge and totally worth it. Bagels with assorted cream cheeses are around $3.

Nice cozy bagel shop with high quality, reasonably priced offerings. Gets a bid crowded from time to time but the staff knows what they are doing and the occasional wait is well worth the good bagel.
