This is the best bagel I have had. The olive pimento cream cheese and horseradish bacon are perfection.
The owner and staff should be a model of customer service for the food industry. Great find and will stop every time I am in the area to golf.

July 2021, great tasting Bagels, and friendly staff.
Came here with friends who live in the area and ordered an egg on. poppyseed Bagel, my friend ordered one with cream cheese. Both were delicious, freshly made Bagels. This shop has a great variety of Bagels that we would try when we are in the area again.

The staff go out of their way to serve you in a friendly, efficient manner. The food is terrific. I love the muffins, variety of cream cheese, and of course the bagels. And they make delicious egg sandwiches to your liking.

I’ll start as if this was a eulogy for an uncle that I didn’t really like but at family gatherings was the only one that I could stand. When my wife and I first moved to the area 2 years ago we were a bit shell shocked by the limited culinary options compared to where we came from. With us both working full time and cooking dinners for the majority of the week, enjoying someone else making breakfast for us is an anticipated weekend pleasure that we would indulge in at Hamburg Hot Bagels but will be seeking a new bagel shop.Â
Hamburg Hot Bagels is a nice place but by no means a caliber of superiority. We’ve enjoyed their food weekly with and without out of town guests and appreciated that they were often busy so we’d always order ahead and patiently wait in line. Today was a similar expectation but with disappointing results both on a quality and customer service level. I’d like to reiterate that making bagels and breakfast sandwiches isn’t rocket science, it’s not solving world hunger, nor curing Covid so customer service is a huge part of the business. Hamburg Hat Bagels is not a Michelin star restaurant in Paris or a modern bagel shop pumping out new methods or funky flavors, it’s just a deli at best that has fresh bagels.Â
My wife is about to give birth, literally in 1 week, so obviously her requests can be a little different so today she wanted a sausage egg and cheese with half of the sandwich with jalapeño cream cheese. He said he would put the cream cheese on the side and I asked him to just put it on because obviously there’s a sense of haste when feeding pregnant women. I get it, trust me, I worked in the food industry as a pastry chef, bar tender, cater waiter, and everything in between but at the end of the day if you run an establishment that is made to order breakfast food then you accommodate. We ordered about 20 minutes in advance and when I walked in I was surprised to hear my order being discussed by the bald gentleman that usually is very helpful mentioning the guy ordering this half jalapeño cream cheese sandwich as being a pain in his ass. At the same time I was telling another guy behind the counter my order, because he asked me, and then the bald guy throws his hands in the air and literally yells “Sir your order is being made please wait”. So I walked out to my car where my pregnant wife was waiting to see if she’d been having any more contractions.Â
So, I walk back in and again the bald guy has something to say telling me that he lost his voice calling me that my order was ready. Then sarcastically explains that he even made my wife’s sandwich half jalapeño cream cheese but he wanted me to do it. I asked him if it was a problem to make the sandwich as I asked because he seemed a little upset and then he said no I just wanted you to do it. I then asked him if he wanted me to come back there and make my entire order as well because it wasn’t rocket science. Again I asked him if there was a problem and told him that I come to this place weekly but he starts talking about how we made it to the moon and bla bla bla… so I paid and left not dragging on the distasteful display of immaturity and lack of customer service.Â
My uncle was a good man, oh wait, this is a food review not an actual eulogy though I sort of wish I was dead for wasting so much time and money on this business. We were loyal customers but at the end of the day, I could get better bagels 10 other places within the same travel time we just happened to commit to this place. Hamburg Hot Bagels is a busy place so they won’t miss us but when it comes to the principle of taking care of customers, pregnant or not, they need a lesson and they need to wake up. Shame on you for acting so poorly today - my family and friends will never give you business again.Â
Happy 4th of July.Â

I just returned from Hamburg Hot Bagels. Yes, the bagels are pretty good--authentically boiled, good selection.
However, customers inside the store don't social distance, with most standing right next to others like before the Covid. The way the center where it is located is set up, it would we easy to have customers lined up outside properly distanced once the inside is full of properly distanced customers. Even more disturbing, at least two of the servers were wearing their masks inappropriately--one had his below his nose, the other alternately pulled his below his nose and mouth, or hung it from one ear.
This server happened to ring me up after I got my order. I said to him that his mask isn't doing any good if it's not covering his nose and mouth. Instead of doing the right thing and pulling up his mask--after all, the first rule of retail is the customer is always right--he mouthed off to me. He told me, in an agitated, angry voice, that he wears the mask 13 hours a day, and will wear it how he pleases. He added that if I don't like it I can go elsewhere, which I will certainly do. And then he reached out and touched my hand, for no apparent reason other than perhaps to anger me.
I know Sussex County is a conservative area with many people who don't believe the risk of coronavirus is significant. I also know that it's uncomfortable to wear a mask for a full day of work. However, there are also many people who do understand how dangerous community spread of the disease is, don't want to be exposed to people who may have the Covid but not be symptomatic, and don't want to inadvertently expose others. People who work in jobs that face the public are also required to wear masks, which means wearing them properly. And people who manage public-facing businesses are responsible for making certain they comply with these critical anti-Covid rules.
So, I will take my business elsewhere, no matter how far I have to drive for bagels for my family. But the guy who flew off the handle at me needs to go elsewhere too--he needs a job where he can comply with health requirements, and not be in a position where he gets emotional and assaults customers.

We picked up bagels and sandwiches after golf this morning. Everything was very good. The bacon egg and cheese wrap was loaded and very filling. Bagels were very good and fresh. We'll stop back again

This place is busy, because it’s the best. If you want bagels, really this is the only place worth going to in the area.

I have had bagels everywhere you could buy them. I consider myself somewhat of an expert in bagels - amongst other things. I will gladly tell you that, Hamburg Bagels are as good if not better than any bagels you could buy any where. They offer a GREAT selection of bagels, chewy, boil n baked - whether its a Taylor Ham, egg n cheese sandwich to start the day or a chicken salad wrap for lunch - - - nothing but accolades here!!

I won’t go anywhere else. These bagels can’t compare to any thing else I have tasted. They are always fresh and the service is great. The Philly cheese steak sandwich is great too.
