Bagel Pantry

Bagel pantry has been around on this block for quite a while in Metuchen. It is the only good bagel establishment in the entire area. Therefore, be prepared for it to be quite busy, especially in the mornings . The bagels are actually quite nice. I just wish that they had a jalapeno bagel and they carried fresh jalapenos in their kitchen. Their prices are also very fair.

I had an egg and cheese with additional add-ons totaling $3.50. granted the size of the bagels. Maybe smaller than the places that charge you $1 or $2 more for the same thing.

The quality of the food they serve is fantastic. They're very accommodating to whatever request you may have. They have indoor seating and outdoor seating and surprisingly three ways to get in and out of the store 😂

PS when they ask you if you want to catch up. Apparently they squeeze it into your egg and cheese bagel sandwich directly so explicitly tell them that you wanted on the side or just don't say yes until you get your sandwich to avoid confusion.

We always drove by this amazing place until recently we planned to stop by to have breakfast. Ever since we have had their food we cant wait to go back there over & over again. The old school brick charm of the exterior with patio seating makes you feel you are visiting a nice quaint locality in a small town. Its tucked in the quiet leafy neighborhood of Metuchen with its old school charm.. My go to bagel spot!!
They have a free parking on the side which if you are lucky you might get, however, we always park on the back side at the parking lot & its pretty cheap - 50 cents for half an hour & plenty of parking !!

Once u enter the store you will get lost in the amazing aroma of freshly baked breads, gourmet muffins, cream cheese, bacons & sausages, sandwiches , salads & ofcourse coffee !!
We ordered their everything bagel egg and cheese & bacon(pork/ sausage) sandwiches which is $5.75 and oh man its so filling you cant have it all at once & also their modest egg sandwich is just $2 & egg & cheese sandwich is $2.75!! The coffee have three sizes, we love it as they make it with milk and sugar !! They were crowded, still they turned out our order very quickly..the bagels tasted so fresh !!

All their gourmet bagels & breads are hand rolled & made fresh in the premises. Another interesting thing is they sell different gourmet muffins which we are yet to try and the various flavored cream cheeses are sold in three sized containers, salty and sweet (from jalapeno to strawberry) we have not ventured as yet in that area, would love to experiment more, also they serve varieties of salads, omelettes, specialty sandwiches , wraps & Deli meats & cheese !!

This being our new go to breakfast joint, definitely coming back to try everything one by one!! Love it already !!

We just tried this place yesterday. I must say it’s a surprise hidden in the Metuchen area.

The bagels were fresh and tasty. They had a huge variety of cream cheese options.

The staff was also friendly and quick which made the experience even better.

Always a must stop place to get a great breakfast at a small local business! They have a wide variety of fantastic bagels and great breakfast sandwiches. The staff is always very helpful and quick, prices are reasonable, and the overall environment is always pleasant. I’d totally recommend going here!

A reliable and go-to bagel shop to those who live around the area. There is usually a line out the door when you go in the morning, especially on the weekends, but it moves fast. They have a great selection of bagels, cream cheeses, drinks, and chips - all at a great price. We will definitely be frequent customers here.
