  4. Rank 15. 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.

  19. Rank 47. Apollo Bagels

    California-style Bakery


  20. 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.





  21. Rank 52. Mark's Off Madison

    Old-School Bakery



  22. Rank 54. Bagel Market

    NY-Style Bakery

    Montreal-style Bakery





  33. Rank 91. Bagel Pub

    NY-Style Bakery


  34. Rank 92. Bergen Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery


  35. 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.



  36. Rank 95. Terrace Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery


  37. Rank 96. Bagel Oasis

    NY-Style Bakery




  38. Rank 99. Bagel Pub

    NY-Style Bakery
