"Part of an expanded, much-lauded California bagel scene (The New York Times even declared the nation’s best bagels are in the Golden State), this Palm Springs shop draws long queues of weekend travelers from Southern California, snowbirds from Canada, and locals. Opt for a schmear-topped bagel, the Sunny Dunes bagel sandwich with sausage, egg, and American cheese, or a dozen varied flavors like plain, salted, and blueberry to snack on at any moment. Owners Andy Wysocki and Bill Sanderson even serve vegan cream cheese and lox. For non-bagel options, try the baguettes, focaccia, and black-and-white cookies, paired with a cappuccino or latte. Be patient — the line moves fairly efficiently; winter is the best time to play in the desert when the heat is less overbearing. — Mona Holmes, reporter" - Eater Staff
