“Utopia Bagels brings a beloved New York institution to Long Island City with genuinely exceptional bagels—think perfectly crispy Everything bagels loaded with scallion cream cheese and salmon, or indulgent combos like French Toast bagels with Oreo cream cheese—that keep regulars coming back month after month. The cozy, inviting atmosphere makes it an ideal spot for a quick morning grab-and-go or a lingering breakfast with friends, and their reliability (even on snowy days!) has made it an instant neighborhood anchor in an area hungry for authentic local gems.”

The well know Utopia Bagels is expanding their footprint into Long Island City. An area that was once seedy, without the tall steel and glass buildings and now crawling wall to wall with transplants. The highlight of Long Island City used to be the PS1 Sunday school parties and the diner. But I digress. Back to the bagel shop review. Have to say they have Delicious ice coffee. I love the flavor. The everything bagel tasted w scallion cream cheese was bountiful generous w/ the cream cheese. Smooth, creamy and tasty. The bagel is easy to chew. Soft and crispy. Exception bagel and cream cheese combo. I see why they are at the top. They didn’t skimp on the package I g. Good paper to wrap. Custom prints. Event the Togo paper bag is quality. Seating is comfortable. They even have couches a Very soft cushioned bench seating and chairs. Great art work on the walls and a customized arcade game. *difficult to find a parking space.
I visited this place today and ordered an Everything Bagel with scallion cream cheese and salmon along with a lime sparkling water. The atmosphere is really cozy and inviting and I enjoyed the vibe. When I arrived there was no line but it quickly got busy and a long line formed. The service was still fast and friendly. The bagel was delicious with great flavor and fresh ingredients. I really enjoyed it. The only point to consider is the price which feels a bit overpriced compared to other places I know. Even so the quality is very good and I would definitely come back and recommend the experience.
Ordered on uber eats delivery since I had a gift card and wanted some grub before working from home. Everything was extremely tasty. I was surprised they had egg everything bagel. I got that with scallion cream cheese. I like to put the home fries in the bagel or eat them together in the same bite. Yes weird I know but don't knock it till you try it! I'd definitely reorder. Bae should try this.
I started a new routine where I go to Utopia once a month for breakfast as a treat to myself. So far every single bagel has been amazing! The Oreo cream cheese with French Toast bagel is my favorite so far. Super excited for my next visit!
