Alfa Bagels

Epic bagels, very obviously the best around. Perfect combination of soft to chewiness. We have a bagel club at work and this got one of the best reviews (and thats sourcing from all of northern NJ and NYC)! Parking sucks please fix that!

Absolutely one of the best bagels, if not the best bagel, in my life. And I say that as a lifelong North Jersey bagel eater. Ask them what’s fresh and warm behind the counter, and just get it with some butter. Will transport you to another world. 5/5, highly recommend.

The bagels are great, HOWEVER, when my teenage son corrected the clerk she grabbed the wrong bagel for his order she cursed him out in Spanish while another girl laughed. He knows Spanish, especially the curse words. I will never go back!

The best bagels (and croissants) I've ever had. I don't know what they do in the kitchen but their dough is unlike anything else I've ever tried. It is crispy on the outside, and a delicious soft and chewy texture on the inside that almost feels like melted butter. My boyfriend lives in Randolph so every time I visit him it is a treat to go here!

Alfa Bagels is hands-down the best bagel shop in North Jersey! The bagels are always delicious and fresh—crispy on the outside, perfectly chewy on the inside, and you can taste the quality in every bite. The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming; they always greet you with a smile and even remember your usual order if you’re a regular, which makes the whole experience feel personal and genuine. The shop has that perfect local bagel spot vibe—busy but cozy, full of regulars, and stocked with tons of great options beyond just bagels. Plus, their prices are super reasonable, especially for the quality you get. Alfa Bagels has definitely become my go-to breakfast spot in North Jersey. If you’re in the area and want a true classic bagel experience done right, this is the place to go!
