New York-style bagels, creative cocktails, and classic deli fare
"Buffalo & Bergen opens its third location in Cleveland Park, joining outposts in Capitol Hill and Union Market. The NYC-style bagel and sandwich shop serves all-day breakfast, pastrami sandwiches, tuna melts, and specialty coffee." - omnia saed
"Longtime D.C. mixologist Gina Chersevani pays homage to her native New York on Capitol Hill with a dream deli slinging bagels, matzo ball soup, knishes, and killer cocktails. Opt for takeout, patio seating, and indoor dining. The original in Union Market is joined by a new location in Cleveland Park." - Tierney Plumb
"A growing D.C.-based bagel enterprise founded by a Long Island–born restaurateur that ships dough daily from Queens as part of its expansion in the local market." - Lulu Chang
"A deli and all-day breakfast operation with three D.C. locations that emphasizes reusing ingredients and hyper-local sourcing. Staff are taught to find multiple uses for every product—lemons become zest for curing gravlax, strained juice for beverages, then dehydrated into lemon salt; leftover salmon skins are repurposed into jerky by a friend; and unused bagels are dried, sliced and baked into bagel chips served with soups and salads. Roughly 60% of food is sourced within a 50-mile radius, supported by a proprietary farm purchased five years ago that grows strawberries, lavender, tomatoes and most herbs, plans an orchard, and feeds a flock of 64 chickens with kitchen byproducts to produce restaurant eggs. The owner, Gina Chersevani, frames sustainability as a prioritized, scalable practice—start with one change and expand—toward an ongoing push for zero-waste operations." - Julekha Dash
"Another location of the Buffalo & Bergen chain offering their signature New York-style bagels and a variety of beverages." - Nicole Schaller
