A.M. Bagel — Restaurant in Derby

I follow A.M. Bagel through social media and saw this week they were doing a lucky charms bagel and cream cheese so how could I not go. They are located right off of 34 in Derby with a lot of parking available. You could smell their delicious bagels from outside their shop as you wait in line. I felt every employee was following all Covid protocols as soon as I entered the shop. The staff was very kind and helpful and it made me feel safe. Now for the bagels. They all looked so amazing and fresh. I’m usually all for a toasted bagel but these are so light and fluffy that I don’t even want to toast them when I go to eat them. And the lucky charms cream cheese was available for me to purchase right in their refrigerator so of course I took one home for myself. Everything was so delicious and you can tell it’s made with love and care. Overall, this wonderful little shop now has my heart and will definitely be seeing me more often. Thank you for the wonderful service today! I can’t...

Nestled in the heart of the Naugatuck River Valley, A.M. Bagel's stands as a shining testament to the art of bagel-making. With a stellar rating of 4.9 stars, this establishment has certainly earned its reputation as a must-visit Connecticut destination for both bagel enthusiasts and food connoisseurs alike.

The bagels are nothing short of extraordinary. Each bite carries a distinct balance of a crisp, golden crust and a chewy, tender interior. The array of flavors is astonishing, ranging from classic plain and sesame to more adventurous choices like sun-dried tomato and jalapeño cheddar. It's as if they've captured the essence of each ingredient and seamlessly infused it into these delectable rings of dough.

These guys do some solid business! All the food is top-notch: the bagels, the cream cheese, the sandwich... all great. The coffee (iced) this time and last was a little off and weak. Could be the brand though. Oh well. Went by on a terribly rainy day and there STILL was a line outside the door 16 people long. Pretty much always busy. A pleasant surprise was a doorman! Polite, pleasant, and kept people moving along. Reminded me of when I was a bouncer. Took me 17 minutes to get to the door, another 6 to reach the register to order, another few for the sandwich (same as my last visit). The employees on the register worked hard and with a smile and kept things moving. Actually, it's the smile that is unusual these days and a welcome difference. Again, These guys know how to do solid business. I recommend grabbing a side of cream cheese for the kids... One was green and had... Wait for...
