Reviews for Empire Bagels in Brewster, NY
First and last time! Extremely disappointed...How hard is it to make a salad with grilled chicken. Guess so hard that they had... to charge me double price since that salad is not on the menu. The chicken was tough and the salad was very wilted. The shockerwas it was $20 plus they charged me $.70 for using my credit card. So many great places to get a good salad, but I was in arush. Also, maybe getting employees that can actually treat customers with respect also would be a plus. Read more
I have stopped at this establishment several times before, my last was this afternoon. Ordered a burger (medium well, to go),... the place wasn?t all that busy so I waited for my order. Order took a good 20 minutes, no problem since I did order medium-well.I was staying with relatives 10 min away, sat down and took a bite to find that my burger was medium-RARE, and actually more onthe rare side, not to mention the bun didn?t even seem fresh. Totally disappointed !! To add insult to injury they charged mycard TWICE. I was able to stop there later and get that corrected. Sorry to say ?Not a fan? of Empire Bagel Read more
The people behind the counter are always extremely rude, like they are doing you a favor by taking their order. They constantly... run out of bagels, rolls and then act like it?s the customers fault for not knowing their inventory at all times. Food isn?t badbut we have had enough of these guys. Dave?s next door makes a way better sandwich and they are really nice in there. Join therebel alliance, no more evil empire! Read more
Delicious smoothies, great salads, and amazing coffee (iced coffee has COFFEE ICE CUBES... incredible). Try a caramel iced... latte, a chocolate strawberry protein shake, or the ready-to-go strawberry and mango salad... Those are my fav. Friendly serviceas well of course! Read more
I truthfully have mixed feelings about this place. I'd say 4 stars goes exclusively to the bagels and 2 stars for the staff and... everything else. Bagels are pretty good. Nothing over the top but for sure the best in Brewster! The little farm housey vibesare pretty cool inside. Overall this place could be better than what it is. What I truly can't get past is the staff. Way toorude way too rushed. I completely understand the rush but no need to rush me into ordering and behind r u d e. Skip theomelette, skip the hash browns. Stick to the bagels and cream cheese. They're made fresh. Not a bad spot to be in this plazajust wish they'd be a bit better. Overall I'd give a 3.5. Not bad. But also not a life changing location.

I really like this place. First of all it?s very clean and all the food is presented in a very appetizing way. Plus it?s... delicious, and they really make it nice. Bathrooms are very clean which is a plus. They have a great selection and a superpositive attitude. Try the egg everything bagel? Best in Brewster for sure! Read more
