The 20 Best Bagels In New York City, Ranked
"Bagel Hole refuses to toast, and we respect them immensely for it. This tiny Park Slope shop keeps things plain and simple. They’ve been baking the same 11 flavors of hot kneaded bread since opening in 1985, and our all-time favorite is the everything with cream cheese. It’s the textbook example with a golden brown shell, chewy white center, and crunchy edges that give you a satisfying cracking sound with every bite. Whatever you get, don’t be discouraged by the fact that these run small—that just means you’ll have more room to take down a salt bagel with lox spread and a pumpernickel with butter in one sitting." - bryan kim, will hartman, willa moore, neha talreja, molly fitzpatrick, sonal shah
