The Bagel Loft — Restaurant in Town of Eastchester

Located just steps away from the Crestwood train station, The Bagel Loft is a quintessential neighborhood deli that feels like a local institution. The space is warm and inviting with a charmingly old-school vibe—exposed brick walls, retro signage, and a mix of counter seating and booths that encourage lingering.

What really stands out here is the staff’s attentiveness. Knowing I was racing the clock to catch a train, the team checked in multiple times to make sure my sandwich would be ready in time.

The menu is broad—classic water-boiled bagels, hearty breakfast sandwiches, Boar’s Head deli selections, paninis, and even a salad bar and homemade soups. There’s also a wide variety of drinks and Shkreli coffee on tap, which seems to be a popular local brand.

I ordered a sausage, egg, and cheese sandwich on a roll. It was satisfying and exactly what you’d expect, though not anything gourmet. Prices, however, do lean on the higher side for a small-town bagel shop.

I'd like to say, I love this place, good food, nice staff etc...

I don't understand why the first person doesn't have an order pad or a system that passes my order to the cashier so it can move things along quicker - other than that, great place, friendly staff, and good food - just pointing this out because i feel they can improve the flow with a better check...

Visited this pace couple of days ago and the experience was horrible. Walked into the place and it was empty there was a gentlemen talking with someone and he answered the phone. About 2 mins after another lady comes out and they both started taking.

I was in the store for 5mins approximately and neither of the associates acknowledged me. In an effort to get their attention I moved closer to where they were and once again ignored. I was in disbelief that these 2 associated completely failed to address a customer within at least a minute of being in the store. I gave the benefit of the doubt and stayed long enough but sadly I walked out.

P.S. A customer is the most important visitor on our premises. M. G. and we are willing to wait but greeting and acknowledging...
