I ordered a large Zabar's "New York Breakfast" for my grandson's Bris in NYC. From the initial ordering on the phone until delivery, my experience was excellent. The beautifully packed and presented food arrived earlier than ordered, it was easy to just take the food and baskets of bagels and pastries out of the boxes and put them right on the table, and there was a LOT more food than I expected. Large serves 15- I'd say 20. The smoked salmon was excellent, as were the bagels, rugelach, cakes, babka and croissants. Containers of regular and scalliion cream cheese, butter, and tomatoes, onions and capers were included. It could not have been better or easier. Thanks, Zabar's.

This is the best business on the UWS. They have only top quality items, everything is always very fresh, and they are run with integrity. I once picked up an item that was past the expiration date but due to a visual impairment, I couldn't see the expiration date. When I brought it back the following day, they not only refunded me but gave me a store credit and apologized. This is a legitimate honest business that despite being the most popular business in town does right by their customers. I truly wish them continued success.

We were quite pleased with the food supplies and household items we ordered from Zabars. Everything arrived promptly and was properly packaged so there were no items damaged in shipping. I was pleased with the cured meats we ordered, and various jars of goodies. The bagels were the one disappointment. they weren't good or bad, just not a real New York bagel. I would think that Zabars of all the places on earth would have knock it out of the ball park bagel. Might be a Covid baking thing and not having access to favored ingredients, as many baked goods from many familiar sources have been less than thrilling. So we will try them again once Covid is over. Everything else we ordered was great. I was very impressed with the styling and quality of a cutting board and tea towels I ordered. So please work on those bagels! Being a New Yorker I know a good bagel when I taste one and these were not above supermarket bakery/ freezer bagels quality. I wish they would carry Bialys as they are not available in my current city and I miss them.
