"If you are hankering for New York-style bagels, you’ve come to the right place. This family-owned Bethesda staple since 1982 continues to crank out hand-rolled everything, onion, salt, blueberry, cinnamon raisin, wheat, pumpernickel bagels. There’s always a line here in the morning, but that gives you time to pursue the cold cases and check out the other offerings from the chopped liver (there’s even a vegan version), whitefish spreads, herring and a seemingly endless array of cream cheeses from chive, lox, veggie, to blueberry and strawberry to name just a few. They also make Flagels, flat bagels, and mini-bagels for those interested in fewer carbs." - Claudia Rosenbaum
