"When I can't wait for Palace's line, I order a takeout bagel sandwich from this former Salem pop-up turned Biddeford staple known for excellent wood-fired bagels; ordering online as soon as they open is wise because the bagels sell out quickly." - Stasia Brewczynski
"Rover Bagel, in Biddeford’s Pepperell Mill development, is a takeout-only operation known for its wood-fired bagels that combine the chew of New York–style bagels with the char and crunch of Montreal's. They use a sourdough starter and a mix of local and King Arthur flour. The shop is popular among locals, even on freezing winter mornings."
"A takeout-only operation in a mill development producing wood-fired, sourdough bagels that marry New York chew with Montreal-style char and crunch, made from a mix of Maine Grains and King Arthur flours. Notable items include the Cranadama (an anadama-inspired cranberry bagel) with chili-garlic cream cheese and substantial breakfast sandwiches like the Shift Meal with bacon, avocado, roasted onions, and hot honey; bagels freeze well and preordering is recommended to avoid lines." - ByBon Appétit Staff & Contributors
"A wood-fired bagel shop known for a deliberately charred appearance and the motto 'looks burnt, tastes great,' founded by alumni of a respected Boston bakery; the Biddeford location became a local favorite before announcing a planned December closure." - Dana Hatic
"Rover Bagel returns to Biddeford after the owners briefly moved to greater Boston. Making wood-fired bagels with flavored cream cheese spreads, Rover Bagel has been enthusiastically welcomed by the locals." - Kate McCarty
