Corey's Nyc Bagel Deli - Chicago

A good bagel for Chicago. Their bagel sandwiches are great. Always get their lox bagel with a healthy amount of cream cheese.

I only had the black and white cookie here. It was not what i expected, it did not remind me of new york. But i guess the only place to get a new york black and white is new york. The bagels looked good, if im here again i may go for one of those.

Corey's has really stepped their game back up over the last few months and I've left really impressed with the service and the quality of the food each of the last few times I've gone. I seriously think they've hired new staff who are super friendly and make you feel like a part of the gang and not just a customer, and that the food quality has stepped up a notch and the owners are ACTIVELY involved in the day-to-day now. I had gone and grabbed 2 breakfast bagels (bacon, egg, cheese) for my gf and I. Upon getting home I realized they had only put one sandwich in the bag. When I walked back in a few minutes later the staff immediately knew why I was back and the owner Laurie (Corey Laurie) was insistent on making sure I left with no bad feelings about it and even gave me a bag of their bagel chips and seasoning. Turned a frustrating experience into a memorable one and won over a serious bagel cynic in the process!

This place is a hit or miss. Lunch sandwiches are big with a lot on the inside which is good for the price but my bagel was stale and hard. The other day I went for breakfast and the bagel was perfect. So they might keep bagels for a day or two. If you add cream cheese to your sandwich it’s an additional 3 dollars. I would say over all it’s on the expensive side. If you stick to menu you come out shared but any add one like avocado, or cream cheese. It’s just a waste of money as they put very little on.

It was tasty, but way overpriced. In NY I get a BEC and I am full, this barely curbed my appetite, but I will say the bacon was wonderfully crispy. For what it's worth, I'm at the airport now and I can get breakfast cheaper.
