The Top 100 Bagel Shops Near Le Crocodile


  1. Rank 2. Bagel Joint

    NY-Style Bakery





  2. Rank 6. Bagel Point

    NY-Style Bakery




  3. 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.




  4. Rank 12. Tal Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery









  5. Rank 20. Liberty Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery




  6. Rank 23. Utopia Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery


  7. Rank 24. 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.


  8. Rank 25. Bagels & Schmear

    NY-Style Bakery


  9. Rank 26. Baz

    NY-Style Bagel Bakery



  10. Rank 28. Apollo Bagels

    California-style Bakery


  11. Rank 29. Bagel Pub

    NY-Style Bakery





  12. Rank 33. Knickerbocker Bagel

    NY-Style Bakery



  13. Rank 35. Liberty Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery


  14. Rank 36. Bergen Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery



  15. Rank 38. Liberty Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery



  16. 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.


  17. Rank 41. Mark's Off Madison

    Deli, Italian, Pizza





  18. Rank 45. Bagel Pub

    NY-Style Bakery


  19. Rank 46. Terrace Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery


  20. Rank 47. Bagel Pub

    NY-Style Bakery


  21. Rank 48. Liberty Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery


  22. Rank 49. Bagel Hole

    NY-Style Bakery




  23. Rank 52. Bo's Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery




  24. Rank 55. Bergen Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery



  25. Rank 57. Black Seed - Nolita

    Montreal-style Bakery





  26. Rank 61. Wheated

    Italian, 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.







  27. Rank 67. Bergen Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery




  28. Rank 70. Bagel Market

    NY-Style Bakery






  29. Rank 75. Bagel Pub

  36. Rank 91. Tal Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery


  37. Rank 92. Tal Bagels

    Gluten-Free Bakery

          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.
