Outstanding service with a smile. I haven’t been in years. I often go to Noah’s bagels. I remembered how I loved Manhattan Bread and Bagel. Walked in around 1:30 pm. The bagel shop looked closed. I asked a young man on the bakery/deli side whether I could purchase bagels. His attitude was bright and positive, “sure I can”. I walked out with my bagels. I’ll be back soon!
Phenomenal NY Style Bagels. The Garlic and Poppy were just perfect. The great crust on the outside protects the soft, chewy center. The 2nd picture is of the lox and cream cheese. The salmon was the best weve had on this one-month road trip around Southern California.What gave this five stars was that the general manager, maybe the owner, was working the register on this busy Sunday. It seemed that he had less than an entire staff today, given the long lines. I saw him run around and do everything, even empty the trash bins as they were filling up. This place was mobbed!Bonus, they do fresh bread every day, see picture, so they are more than a bagel shop.
I love this place! Best bagels around! Great variety of creek cheese(my favorite is cream cheese with chives)Their egg bagels are fresh, delicious, and not processed eggs like McDonald’s and Noah’s bagel. I love the staff there, very sweet and tentative.
I’m a South Bay native of 63 years and recently came across Manhattan Bread & Bagel. . . Being of Italian heritage fresh baked bread is an item I truly enjoy. One recent day I was in the area and stopped in to the bakery. So many delicious bread types to choose from. My bagel was fresh and tasty. I also purchased a few loves of bread to take home. I have returned a number of times to pick up fresh baked bread for home. Bravo, Bravo & Bravo!
From NY and I really miss the bagels and pizza! A coworker brought these in and I immediately had to go there myself to bring home to the family. The everything bagels are super generously seasoned and the veggie cream cheese is fresh and delicious. Slightly expensive, but the quality is there. Oh yeah, and easy parking!
Service was awful and incredibly slow. Took 25 minutes for 2 bagel sandwiches without a line in front of us. And then they got both orders wrong! The bagels and bread is alright but unless you have nowhere to be, just go to Noah’s instead
Got the turkey and bacon sandwich, was pretty good but would have preferred the bacon to be cooked a little more, was kind of cold and chewy. But overall a good sandwhich and I liked the added orange wedge.
Im a South Bay native & a Chef for many years. Yet I rarely get to eat Bagels or bread so I ordered the tuna sandwich in sourdough that said it came with fresh fruit & a small side...The service was good. The sandwich was very fresh but the pasta salad had zero flavor & the side of fruit was an old tum down piece of orange.
A piece of Brooklyn in Manhattan (Manhattan Beach that is!) I long for the days grabbing a bagel from a hole in the wall over looking the Brooklyn Bridge. Soft and warm a bagel would do wonders for the soul. This bakery matches that feeling, a feeling I never imagined Id recapture after my Step Uncles incident. Coffee was good.
I would give them a plus sign on top of the 5 stars. My favorite bagel place. Always prompt service.
Love the food, but staff is very uncooperative, lazy. Can’t cut bagel in a half because supposedly “ cutting themselves “ in the process. Pretty ridiculous claims. One day friendly staffer can do it, next day “ we don’t do it” excuse
I hate giving bad reviews.I phone ordered a lox (they may call it smoked salmon) sandwich on an egg bagel, no cream cheese, lightly toasted, and normal everything else. I repeated it 3 times.After the nice lady called me back (because she thought I wanted to add egg to my sandwich and “didn’t ask what type of bagel you wanted”) I arrived to get a burnt bagel light on salmon, extra tomatoes, extra capers, extra onions.I’m giving 2 starts as the lady was nice and the fish is good quality. Otherwise my I can’t eat this because the bagel is hard!
Its a pleasant place with... pleasant staffThey will, however, wrap your toasted bagel & cream cheese in aluminum foil so that by the time you get it home its a bagel with cream sauce. The espresso drinks are out of a powdered machine.I bet their other food is better.
Every time I frequent this fabulous restaurant Im always pleased with the food and service
Not much to say but best sandwiches and great service
All the sandwiches are good. Recommend #5, Turkey and Harvati, #6, Turkey and Bacon.
So many delicious bagels to choose from! The avocado bagel special is so good!
I had a bran muffin which was great, my friend enjoyed their bagels and cream cheese, however the place does not seem ran very well, disorganized which seemed to be causing a long line.
Best sourdough sandwiches ever. Buy a loaf of bread any of them they are to die for.
OMG! This place is awesome! The bagel sandwich was very fresh & tasty & the crew was very friendly.... I will return!!!
Amazing!The gentleman that owns the place is always so sweet and welcoming! Have loved everything we have had here. Highly recommended!!
Excellent lox and great coffee.
Sour dough wasnt sour enough for my yast.
Fresh, delicious bagels created daily and served with warmth and personality.
Long lines, in the morning only 1 cashier even if you only want to purchase a loaf of bread.No one seems to notice people need help.Great food.
Love this place, lucky for me its next door to work. The bagel sandwiches in the morning is a god sent. The fresh bread, eggs and dog treats are excellent also. Yum Im getting hungry just writing this review
Everything i’ve tried here tasted so much better than it would anywhere else and I’m still not sure why. Love it!
Always ths nicest people working there. Locally owned . They have the best oatmeal, coffee, fresh OJ & bagels ever!!
I bought chocolate chip cookies from here and some dog biscuits I thought that they were probably repackaged but I found out that they make them there those cookies are so moist and so good and my dog loved the dog biscuits that they made there really tasty and the bread here is really good too freshly made
Today, Sunday, Nov 1, we stopped at MBBakery to get fresh bread. We bought wheat sourdough which is quite good. The oatmeal cookies were good, but a bit dry. The Banana Chocolate Chip bread, packed with mini chocolate bits, was absent any taste of banana ! and extremely dry, nothing resembling banana bread texture or flavor. A waste of $!!!! I can not serve this to my company tomorrow. 🥴.
The cookies and pastries at this store are outstanding! Nothing compares however to the bread and bagels! Manhattan Bread and Bagel has definitely raised the bar in terms of quality when it comes to their bagels and bread!
One of the best bagels Ive had!!
What a great community supporter. They have stepped up their game in the days of CV19 and offering more than there usual awesome fare. Extras include eggs, deli meats, loads more bread, etc. Makes me feel proud for them and I am committed to supporting MB&B whenever I can.
Fantastic bagels that are so fresh. Lox spread that is outstanding.
Cute environment for studying and amazinggg bagels nice and fresh
Delicious bagels and cream cheeses - amazing menu as well!
I love Bran Muffins
Found it by accident, and so far very impressed! I will definitely be going back.
Called on a Sunday for a pickup order.Was put on hold for almost 19 minutes (which was really just the phone off the hook) and I heard at least 4 orders get put in and rung up while I waited.I started driving to Manhattan Bread & Bagel while I waited (only 15 minute drive)Then they hung up.No response, no hold on just another minute, nothing.Minutes from arriving (the whole reason you call ahead).So I called back and was about to be put on hold again. I tried to talk to the person and explain I was on hold for several minutes already. I continued on to say I only needed 2 dozen bagels, thats it.The person said yeah but itll still be 20-30 minutes, super busy. For 2 dozen bagels....These guys cant be serious.I had just arrived and saw how many people were waiting, about 4-5 people in line.This could have been avoided if they talked to people on the phone with respect.A simple heads up, were busy this might take a while would have helped, but no only after 20 minutes and being hung up on did I then get a rude explanation for lazy work ethic.I took my business to another bagel shop on the way home and see no reason to return.
Enjoyed the everything bagel with the delicious atlantic smoked salmon, and cream cheese. Great service as well.
Salmon sandwich was incorrectly made, but i didn’t realize it until after a few bites. The woman corrected it, but only giving me a new bagel (not the sandwich) and making me feel like I was trying to get a freebie. I’ve been a customer for 15 years for this? I haven’t been back since November 2020.
Best bagels in Manhattan and great people!
Bagels are good, but not good enough to want to deal with the rude man bun hipster guy. Pre-ordered online. I wasnt sure where to stand to pick up my order. I asked entitled man bun guy who looked right at me. Flat-out ignored me and kept walking. I ordered ahead a bakers dozen of bagels, some cream cheese, lox and a coffee. Wasnt ready when I got there. I waited 15 minutes for him to finally get around to throwing some bagels in a bag and handing me my coffee, lox and cream cheese. Forgot the cream for my coffee. If youre going to charge me $22 for some bagels and a coffee, I dont think its asking too much to act like Im putting you out. Maybe he fell off his unicycle on his way to work, but you guys need to get better in the customer service department.
Fantastic bagels and bialies.
Excelente place!! Amazing food and customer service!!!
This spot is worth visiting. They serve large portions for convenient prices. Consistently well organized and with fantastic atmosphere. Will come back again.
Best bagels in the South Bay by far. Always parking available, long line for good reason but moves super fast. Everything fresh. Bread is fantastic too.
Best bagels ever
Way too slow. Very badly organized. Every idiot can do this better
Bagels are awesome! Busy in the AM. They also have great salads and sandwiches. I buy the cilantro dressing which goes well with all kinds of stuff. Try the “French toast” on the weekends, it’s incredible.
Shout out to Manhattan Bread & Bagel. They were able to drop off lunch to the many health care works at LA USC Medical center. The salads that were dropped off were absolutely loaded. I had the delicious Chinese Chicken salad. Included grilled chicken, nice green crisp romaine lettuce, green onions, carrots, toasted almonds, chinese noodles and the perfectly made Asian dressing.Thank you Manhattan B&B
I have only had the lunch sandwiches here which are great. They are of high quality and a decent variety and value. For about $9 you get a sandwich and a side of delicious Greek pasta salad included. There is a good amount of parking and outdoor seating available.Be aware that they only currently sell cold sandwiches.
Awesome boiled & freshly baked bagels! A neighborhood treasure. Orders packed well to-go. Line moves very slowly but then a modest wait til your order is ready. Plenty of indoor tables and several outdoor. Just slow for to-go orders if you want to move fast.
Service can be faster, great food
Home made bread is the start to their sandwiches. Ive tried a few and have loved them all. As a new Yorker I have. Real appreciation for the cream cheese but also wish for a little more meat and the Sandys.
Good bagels, breads and bakery foods. Breakfast sandwiches are very good and are exactly what you expect. Some days the food is phenomenal and some days it is average/ok. Definitely better than a grocery store but not always their best.
Good bagels. Ive been coming here for years. Always busy which is a great sign of the quality of product they produce. If you missed breakfast or need a snack, hit up MB&B!
Love this place and their works bagels!
Good tasting bagel but was disappointed that i got a breakfast sandwich and waved cream cheese instead of American cheese and was charged $1 extra for the tiniest bit of cream cheese. It was dry as they only put a small about on 1 side of the bagel. I mean for $1 but sides should have had cream cheese. I dont mind an up charge but i think it was a lot when it was just swapping ingredients and i barely got any. Service was very friendly. I will give this place another shot
Great sandwiches and service
Lox with jalapeño bagel!This is a legit bagel shop and the bagels are crispy on the outside and doughy on the inside exactly the way it should be. Great bagelsPlenty of quality cream cheese spreads as well. Feel like Im back home in NY when I step into this place. Friendly staff as well and plenty of space to sit down and eat. Small outdoor patio seating area.
Best bagels in town
Delicious
Manhattan Bread & Bagel is small but well loved by locals. The fresh bread is fantastic, and morning bagels are always tasty. The sandwich menu stays the same, but is good with staples that work well. My favourite is the BBQ BLT!Fresh cookies are always a welcome (and totally worth it!) temptation. They also have packaged salads that are a snap to pick up and roll with - these salads are surprisingly crisp, full and tasty.Pro tip - if you bring your kids (or if youre feeling nostalgic), get the PB&J with the crust cut off and a cold whole milk. Its awesome!
A better bagel place.
The white fish salad and the bagels are the best!
I go to MB Bread and Bagel every Saturday morning plus sometimes during the week for their sandwiches at lunch. Food is great, service is friendly and the prices are very reasonable
They have a wide variety of bagels and many flavors of cream cheese. They also make great deli sandwiches and have several packaged salads and snacks. Great baked items too.
Great coffee, food and service 😋
Coffee gets an F, bagel gets a D+. Very disappointed. I went at 4:00, maybe just a bad time.
I love the bagels and cream cheese here, and the coffee is good. Plus, they have other choices such as sandwiches with egg, cheese, bacon, and such. However, I feel that the cream cheese is somewhat overpriced. So I dont come here too often, unless I want to give myself a special treat! Sometimes, if Im waiting to have my car serviced at Firestone Complete Auto Care Center down the block on Sepulveda, and Im not planning to go home while my car is being serviced, I will walk to Manhattan Bread & Bagel to grab a bagel and a cream cheese tub. Admittedly, I like a lot of bagel with my cream cheese, if you get my drift! I do want to mention that the service here is a little bit inconsistent in terms of the attitude of the servers. Not long ago, one of them was not friendly or courteous at all. But, in general, its fine for the treats that its known for!
We went to this bagel shop at 4:30am because we had an early flight and they opened the door for us even though they dont even open until 6am! Service was wonderful and the food was fresh and delicious! A must to go to if youre looking for a deli/breakfast spot in LA.
Best place, excellent bagels, large n fresh. Good selection. Great nova, eggs sandwiches, management is pro active, even with a line, it goes fast. Lots of seating
Good bagels, long line to order, tables in eating area had not been cleaned between use.
I wanted to send food to a grieving family, knowing that--at times like that--not having to think about preparing or procuring meals, at least for a few days, can be a great comfort. Kristin in the Catering department was SO helpful in assisting me in choosing the best components to send; she packaged everything in re-sealable containers so the family could make sandwiches and then easily pop everything into the fridge. She had practical suggestions, priced it very reasonably and and was able to have it delivered the same day I placed the order. HUGE thumbs up for Kristin and the folks at Manhattan Bread & Bagel!
Love the food here! Always delicious. Great bagels.
I really love supporting local businesses and come on, carbs. Need I say more? They gave great food and super friendly service. They place gets packed so its not always an in-and-out quick buy - but in my opinion its worth it.
Delicious!
Quality experience
Simply the BEST!
Good bagels but the service is quite slow. Expect to wait in line to pick up the order.
A long standing staple of the area offering great bagels, delicious bread and tasty sandwiches. For best results use their mobile app to order ahead of time!
Long lines during the mornings but with the wait. Get the egg on a bagel with American bacon and cheddar cheese. The defaults are Canadian bacon and American cheese but its not the best combo if you ask me! Also their lox bagel is one of the best Ive ever had!
Manhattan Bread and Bagel has been one of my favorite breakfast spots for 7 years. My favorite items are the vegetable frittata and their bread pudding served with real maple syrup. They also have awesome sandwiches, salads, scones, cookies, muffins and of course delicious fresh bagels. It is a true breakfast treat.
Great bagel. Perhaps not the best counter design. But really good bagel and nice staff. Taking a star. Rude staff experience.
Best place in town for Bagels, bread, desserts, salads etc. Breakfast and lunch. Friendly staff, clean. Be careful not to go in to hungry. Alot to choose from.
Love their lox and bagels so much that I have now made this my GO TO spot to order breakfast when Im at work.
Great bagels. The egg bagel is my favorite. Also try the veggie cream cheese
