Brick Lane Beigel Bakery
your comments review this restaurant and win a bottle of champagne
For me this has got to be a hidden gem in old London Town.
All I can say its simply the best bit of grub money can buy.
Quantity and quality in equal measure - I recommend this place to all and sundry.
You won't find better.
Salt Beef Bagels of the highest quality - and get plenty of mustard on it !!

The salt beef bagels cannot be challenged,absolutly fantastic,If were up town visiting a museum i,m willing to sit in traffic,and drive to the other side of london,just to buy us a couple(1 is and promise never enough).There was, many years ago a documentory just on the brick lane 24hr bagel shop which was very intresting.The shop provides many jobs for the local community ,that must be a good thing on it,s own.Can,t wait to visit again.

Hard to compare this place to other restaurants on this site but as far as a good salt beef beigel you simply cannot beat this place.
The staff are always cheerful, the place is always packed ( and I've been every day ot the week, lunch times, evenings, 3am and I think even on Christmas day), and the beigels are the best in London.
A regular haunt for over 25 years !

A very old haunt of mine and I was delighted to pop in again after a gig at Cargo last night. The salt beef beigel was absolutely lovely, succulent, tasty and with a lovely blast of heat from the mustard. It is without doubt the best post night out snack you can have. a great institution I hope to keep popping in for many years to come!

Nom nom nom!
Ended up in here today. I'd never had a beigel or salt beef and now I think I may have developed a new addiction. Just know that the time will come that I'll get a 4 am taxi across town. That beef was just so tender, and in such big juicy chunks and all the mustard kind of melting and seeping between the fibres of the meat.
Seriously good food.

The first salt beef beigel I had from here made chemical changes in my brain, nothing else could or would ever match up to this. I don't live in London but as a regular visitor it is the first thing that goes on my itinerary. Nothing like queuing up with a load of taxi drivers and other like minded addictees for the finest sandwich experience in London.
So much so am I smitten, that I had my caterer make salt beef for my wedding buffet....now that's addicted.

Born in the East End but now living in Bristol this place is still a part of every journey I make to London. True 24 hour dependability, long may it serve us!!!!

Awesome salt beef bagel - huge chunks with a slather of mustard. Worth a detour or maybe as an hors d'oeuvre before a curry?!

If you're from New York, and you think you're about to get the real thing, finally, you'll be mightily disappointed. These beigel things are essentially large soft pretzels in the shape of bagels, which is really what the traditional east-European Jewish "beigels" are supposed to be. But a far cry from H&H. I can't believe no one can do a real H&H bagel in London.
That said, the salted beef beigel is pretty good. The beigel itself kinda compresses in the heat, becoming a gummy mess, but, hey, that's tradition.
