The Top 100 Bagel Shops Near Lucia Pizza of Avenue X


  1. Rank 2. Tal Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery


  2. Rank 3. Bagels & Schmear

    NY-Style Bakery








  3. Rank 10. Utopia Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery




  4. Rank 13. Mark's Off Madison

    Old-School Bakery


  5. Rank 14. Apollo Bagels

    California-style Bakery


  6. 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.


  7. Rank 16. Liberty Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery



  8. 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.

  20. Rank 55. Bergen Bagels

    NY-Style Bakery





  21. Rank 59. Knickerbocker Bagel

    NY-Style Bakery


  22. 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.
