"Nick’s Bagels is a great addition to the community. They make solid, fresh bagels every day right on site—hard to find that kind of quality and consistency anymore, especially in Connecticut. Not too many places left like this. If you haven’t stopped by yet, it’s well worth it. Fresh, local, and exactly what a bagel shop should be."

"Fantastic. The best bagels you can get outside of NYC. They do need to attend to atmosphere and perhaps team up with one of the craft coffee places in the area?? Could be a win for both."

"Nick’s Bagels in Litchfield is an absolute gem! From the second you walk through the door, the smell of fresh bagels hits you like a warm hug. These are the real deal — perfectly chewy with that shiny, crackly crust that only comes from doing things the right way. I’m convinced Nick has a bagel wizard hiding in the back because every single one is amazing. The staff are legitimately some of the friendliest people ever. smiling and grateful for your business Do yourself a favor and get there EARLY. Your taste buds will thank you, and you’ll probably end up becoming a regular like the rest of us addicts!"

"The negative reviews I have read are simply ridiculous. Poor planning on their part.. I am leaving this 5 star review in an effort to drive the ratings up because 'karen' or 'brad' are pretentious on their 2/3 stars they left The bagels are absolutely delicious."
