Top tips

Good to know: Expect a line at busy times, though reviewers often say it moves quickly.
Check the cold case for extra tofu schmear flavors, including fruit flavors that may not appear online or on the board.

All 4 tipsShow fewer

Ask for your bagel toasted; the tofu schmear servings can be generous, so request a lighter portion if preferred.
Good to know: Ask whether the vegan egg or your preferred tofu schmear is available; one visit found the Beyond egg station unavailable, and another had only savory schmears.

About

This counter-service Union Square bagel shop pairs a wide range of bagels with tofu schmears in flavors like scallion, garlic-herb, and sun-dried tomato, plus vegan sandwiches such as the Beyond Delight. Lines can stretch during busy hours, but reviewers say they move quickly; indoor seating is limited to standing tables, and several reviewers flag the prices as high.
