The Top 100 Bagel Shops Near Bodega Nights




  1. The smoked fish counter on Orchard Street has been an institution since forever, and Russ & Daughters is the appetizing shop New York trots out whenever it needs to prove a point. White-jacketed servers, a pristine deli case, egg creams, bagels, and Scottish salmon done multiple ways. The Michelin Bib Gourmand nod keeps it honest: the food is the whole point, and the regulars at the counter have known that for years.




  2. Rank 7. Bagel Pub

    NY-Style Bakery




  3. Rank 10. Bagel Joint

    NY-Style Bakery






  4. Rank 15. Baz

    NY-Style Bagel Bakery


  5. Rank 16. Bergen Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery


  6. Rank 17. Liberty Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery



  7. Rank 19. Tal Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery


  8. The mission here is explicit: no rainbow bagels, no blueberry bagels, no what Peter Shelsky calls the "shiksa bagel." This Park Slope bagel shop makes small, crust-forward rounds in the New York tradition, though the Sichuan peppercorn bagel, a nod to the long Jewish-Chinese-food alliance, bends the rules just enough. The New York Times named it among the city's best, which is the only endorsement that really matters in this particular argument.




  9. Rank 23. Utopia Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery


  10. Rank 24. Terrace Bagels

  11. Rank 26. Bagels & Schmear

  16. Rank 39. Apollo Bagels

  17. Rank 41. Liberty Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery


  18. Rank 42. Liberty Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery


  19. Rank 43. Wheated

    New Haven-Style Pizza

    The New Haven-style pies here are cooked to a serious crunch, with dough pressed thinner than the Connecticut purists would sanction and a tangy, oregano-heavy tomato sauce that makes a decent argument for staying in Brooklyn. Wheated is a Ditmas Park pizzeria with a full bar that also does bagels, so the menu has range. The New York Times put it on their best pizza in New York list, which is the kind of thing that fills a neighborhood spot fast.
