The Top 100 Bagel Shops Near Liberty Bagels


  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.

  10. Rank 33. Liberty Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery


  11. Rank 34. 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.


  12. Rank 35. Liberty Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery



  13. Rank 37. Bagel Market

    NY-style Bakery








  14. Rank 44. Liberty Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery


  15. Rank 45. Bagel Joint

    NY-Style Bakery




  16. Rank 48. Bergen Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery


  17. 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.

  33. Rank 85. Bagelworks

    NY-Style Bakery


  34. Rank 86. 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.
