Who makes the best bagel in town?

Patch is relaunching its Readers’ Choice program and we’re asking you, your friends, family, neighbors, coworkers and anyone else who knows bagels to nominate the best spots in Wayne.

We’ll keep accepting nominations through July 9. After that, nominations will be closed and we’ll start the voting, so make sure to get in your favorites now.

All you need to do to nominate a business is to add it in the comments below. If you already see the business you want to nominate, make sure to add your comment about why it should be included. We may not be able to add all businesses to our poll and we want to make sure our readers' favorites make the cut.

Sams bagels are real bagels. The others are wonder bread shaped like a bagel.

I am retracting my high opinion of Sams. They recently sold me bagels that tasted like paste. I guess they are on the wonder bread recipe too, like all the other places. Now I have to go to Clifton for a real bagel. They are just as bad as The Bagel Stop.

Not sure when you were last there Elizabeth, but I'm nominating Sam's... My family recently had great bagels from there to celebrate Father's Day. The service was fast and friendly and my entire family liked the bagels.

I am there every single Sunday morning. June 24, 2012 was the last time. Something happened in the last 2 weeks or so. The whole family noticed the pasty bagels. It was like eating bagels from Arkansas. Terrible. If they are messing with the recipe due to cost, it will cost them the business. I would pay double for what they used to make. I grew up on the best bagels, we are culinary professionals and just all around foodies. We know a good bagel. Sorry. I will try again this Sunday but if they changed the recipe that's the end for us. Maybe they spilled some gluten free flour in the regular mix? Gluten is what makes the bagels sooooooooooo good.

I think the best bagels in town are from Sam's Bagel & Deli. They're always fresh and service is fast. I wouldn't go anywhere else!

Bagel loops! Their service is fantastic and the staff is always welcoming, joyful and caring. The bagels are clearly fresh and made by hand. A lot of hard work has been put into the store; you can tell by their clean tables, family friendly atmosphere and most importantly... The bagels! They are obviously the best in town and I wouldn't eat anywhere else.

Bagel Loops will send you for a loop. Service is fast, eficient, and friendly. Made to order breakfast sandwiches (especially egg & cheese with salt and mayo) are great and looped up fast when you're running to work! Friendly workers behind the counter. Good Morning Amigo!

@georgeg I don't know what kind of food you were raised eating, but Bagellops bagels are far from wonder bread. No other recipe comes close to theirs and always fresh hot and hand rolled. Can't beat it!

Teresa, you need to try some real New York bagels....Bagels should be crusty and not full of dough....Sam I Am comes the closest......

@georgeg FYI I have tried New York bagels and am well aware of how a bagel is supposed to be. This vote is for best bagel shop in Wayne. (Bagelloops) Not Totowa .

georgeg

Teresa......then there is no such place as the best bagel shop in Wayne. BTW, Totowa hugs the Wayne border......Sorry, but I don't mean to offend..

@georgeg Get with the times , New York bagels are old news , people want good quality and more for their money these days not crusty dough less bagels. BTW Totowa is still not in Wayne the last time I checked this is the Wayne patch if you can understand the poll, not to offend.

OK people, just like we have accepted global and free market economy, let's accept the greater Wayne area. I will continue driving to Totowa until such time that acceptable bagels are available in Wayne. The same applies to pizza....still looking for good pizzas in wayne. And please don't mention Vinny's.......

Teresa, not sure what age group you are in but most of the bagel shops in Wayne seem to bake soft doughy bagels to accommodate toothless or denture wearing people who have lost their ability to chew and taste the wonders of a great crusty bagel ......

Teresa

7:07 pm on Friday, July 20, 2012

@georgeg. I'm pretty sure I am younger then you are, but there are plenty of people in this poll that agree Bagelloops has the best bagel in town and I'm also pretty sure they are not all toothless and wearing dentures.

Teresa.....I suppose that they are the same people who voted for Vinny's as the best pizza and Positano's as the best Italian restaurant.....There is no accounting for taste.
i have been a resident of Wayne for 30+ years and my main complain has always been where to go for a tasty bagel, a great pizza, and a place to enjoy a good meal. I am still looking......
