Whether you want a plain bagel, bagel with toppings or a deli sandwich type bagel, this is your place in FiDi! So many choices. Price range for items can rage from affordable to pricy, but you get what you pay for. Bagels were on the harder side for me, it did not have the chew that I love. Line can be long some times, but we ordered for pick up so we were able,to "grab and go".

Amazing! Best bagels in nyc and Fidi!! The staff is super helpful and the larger space is a+. I get the custom “loreto” bagel (named after loreto who works there)

Leo's Bagels is a spot that truly never disappoints. Their bagel lox is top-notch with high-quality, fresh ingredients. However, their lines could be better organized to prevent mix-ups at the register which I've seen happen during every visit. Maybe create sections for waiting orders in order to improve the experience!Vegetarian options: Bagels and cream cheeseBakery itemsBeverages in general

OMG! What makes a fantastic bagel even better (the best bagel in southern Manhattan)? A wide array of both bagels and toppings, friendly staff, and at least on this day, reggae music!Only downside, and it’s manageable, at peak times, space is tight, especially for those dining at the perimeter counters.

(Korean review) I wanted to try a proper New York bagel, so I went to a large bagel shop near my accommodation.Add cream cheese, salmon, and onion to a plain bagelPerhaps because I visited in the morning, all the toppings were fresh and the staff were friendly.The bagels were delicious, but not the best I've ever had.The texture was a little rougher than the London bagels I ate while waiting in line in Korea, and I was full after only eating half.

For someone who's been deprived of NYC bagels for too long, Leo's was a bit of a letdown. Let me set the scene. The best bagel I've ever had in New York is a close tie between Ess-a-Bagel in midtown and Absolute on the UWS - perfectly crunchy exterior, beautiful pillowy interior, a thick slathering of cream cheese, paired with super fresh lox (and, when I'm in a wild mood, capers and tomatoes). I don't know if it was because we came late in the afternoon on a Sunday when the breakfast hordes have come and gone (or maybe the freshest is on a weekday morning, come to think of it) but the everything bagel tasted stale, all dense dough and not much chew. In fact, it was perhaps the driest bagel I've consumed in recent memory. Cream cheese/lox ratio solid but not enough to make up for the sad bagel. The upside to going at 3 in the afternoon was there was no line at all. For a bagel and a small yogurt, the total came out to about $25 (talk about NYC sticker shock). We probably would have had better luck grabbing bagels at one of the midtown institutions.

Really delicious bagels. The menu was a bit confusing (sandwich vs. 1/4 lb cream cheese) and there is limited seating/standing room.

5* for the bagel! Quality and quantity was insanely good. Highly recommend! Love the story behind this place opening as well.
We tried different places for a quick breakfast and this one was by far the best. Homemade fresh bagels, good coffee and very friendly staff.

Used to come here when I lived across the street four years ago...great bagels, but could never get a to go order delivered correctly. Four years later, still can't figure it out. Unreal.

The best bagels I have ever eaten.Typically American and not a tourist trap.They are fresh.Wide choice of bagel bread.Wide selection of condiments and garnishes.The only downside is the space inside to be able to eat seated.

Waited 25 min for fresh everything (which we wanted to do) but got my bagel and it was cold, egg was cold, everything was cold to the point where the cheese didn’t even melt. Flavor was also really lacking.. super bummed

Discovery when I was a little hungry. Very good organization, very fast and very good bagels
