Carmelli Bakeries

Best Restaurants in Golders Green | Where to Eat in Golders Green | Eater London

"The word ‘legendary’ gets bandied around a lot, but when a bakery makes the best bagels in London, it probably deserves the L word. Carmelli also claims to be the first British bakery to boil and bake its bagels by hand, resulting in the slightly sweet, super dense and crunchy exterior-ed excellence that former locals beg current locals to bring as gifts by the sackful. Bagels aside, there is cheesecake and baklava and still-warm rugelach to be prised straight from baking trays on the glass counter." - Frankie McCoy
