WHAT CUSTOMERS SAY ABOUT SHAVER HALL
Best bagels in Midtown by a mile. I work on 5th Ave and this is my daily stop. The everything bagel with scallion cream cheese is perfection — exactly what a NYC bagel should be.
We were tourists visiting the Empire State Building and stumbled on this place. Absolutely incredible bagels. My husband said it was the best breakfast of our entire NYC trip.
Finally a real bagel shop in Midtown! No more settling for chain store bagels. The Koch sandwich with hot pastrami is unreal. Worth seeking out.
Ordered catering for our office on 38th St and everyone was blown away. Fresh bagels, amazing cream cheese selection, and delivered right on time. Our new go-to.
Great location right near Bryant Park. Perfect for grabbing breakfast before work. The Jersey sandwich (Taylor ham, egg, cheese) takes me back to my NJ roots.
As a vegan working in Midtown, finding good breakfast options is tough. Their Salino sandwich and tofu cream cheeses are amazing. So grateful they opened here.
