Corey's NYC Bagel Deli - Old Town

Order was prepared 45 min late. Was not made to the many specifications they request you to enter into the online form. Bagel was not fluffy or chewy but just dense, and bagel composition was not the best either leading to everything falling out. Take this was a grain of salt as I’m used to nyc bagels so I have a high bar. Overall decent but given the price and wait time and likely won’t return.

I stopped by to get a dozen bagels for Easter brunch and was convinced that I might've found the best bagels to exist in Chicago, but these bagels didn't...

local fav i go every other week, get few dozen and split with 3 families, always get cream cheese snd chives bagels are fresh and really good i go early,...

God bless New York and New Yorkers, but WOW, did a giant hoax / rumor get massacured today! New York has been running on the assumption that their water is...

As a NY native I say yes. They nail the NY bagel energy. Staff is on point and hard working. Be ready to order and keep up the steady pace. My only note is the layout re: ordering, waiting and picking up. Customers never seem to know where to stand. Some simple signs and/or barriers would help people understand where to order and wait.

Second time here and my experience was worse than the first. Brought my boyfriend here this time and he ordered a bacon; sausage, egg and avocado bagel sandwich. Everything is already charged an additional cost as it is considered “extra”. My boyfriends bagel was missing bacon and avocado, after I paid extra for both AND had already previously tipped on my card. I called NYC bagel deli in Chicago on North Ave not once, not twice but three times as I wanted to let them know to read their tickets more carefully to give people what they are paying for. I put on hold twice for 15 minutes each time. The third time I called back I cut the employee off before he put me on hold, asking him to listen to me. This place will put you on hold and never pick up the phone. Prices are too high. And they will leave out extra items you order. The man finally listened to me the third time I called, after having to cut him off and after waiting on hold for 30 minutes total. People work hard for their money. This location needs to work on reading tickets and being mindful of phone calls coming in. I will not be back here again.

The customer service here is great and the employees are really nice. To top it off, I didn’t have to wait long for my order and my order was made just the way I like it! I highly recommend this place if you need a good bagel and great service!

Stellar bagel sandwiches packed with quality meats. Staff is super kind and hooks it up big time. I’ll make sure to be back.
