The Top 100 Bagel Shops Near Cleo

  1. Rank 1. Apollo Bagels

    California-style Bakery









  2. Rank 9. Liberty Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery




  3. Rank 12. Best Bagel & Coffee

    NY-Style Bakery

    Some of the bagels here are so large they've lost their holes entirely, which feels like a metaphor for Midtown but is actually just breakfast. This no-frills bagel shop near Penn Station runs like a commuter train that actually shows up: the line moves, the bagels come out hot, and the chewy, twisty exterior is what you came for. The New York Times named it among the city's best, and the 8 a.m. crowd would agree without looking up.


  4. Rank 13. Mark's Off Madison

    Deli, Italian, Pizza


  5. 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.



  6. Rank 16. Bagels & Schmear

    NY-Style Bakery








  7. Rank 23. Tal Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery



  8. Rank 25. Baz

  16. Rank 48. Bagel Joint

    NY-Style Bakery



  17. Rank 50. Bagel Market

    NY-Style Bakery




  18. Rank 53. Bergen Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery



  19. 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.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. Most of it is the record: the scored places within reach, weighed by distance, so more good stuff nearby means a higher score. The rest is how life is in that country and what it's like right there: how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are, the air, and the weather. If it looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
