Best Bagels in New Jersey
Megha Patel
Well, I am finally on to my second post of the NJ Food Series!!! In my defense, I put the first one out in March, right when the COVID drama started, so I wasn’t really out and about eating at many restaurants. However, I’m back to share my SECOND LOVE with you!! Bagels will forever be at the top of my list, and there is NOTHING better than a Jersey bagel!
If you have been following me for some time, I’m sure a lot of these places will sound familiar to you. We love bagels in my family, so there’s never a moment where I can pass on an opportunity to try a new spot 🙂 I’ve definitely been to more throughout my time, but these are the ones that I remember and actually stood out to me. I’ll be updating this list as I try new spots, and you can definitely send over your recommendations as well!
P.S. My typical bagel order is an everything bagel toasted with egg and EXTRA cheese, hash brown in the middle, salt, pepper, and hot sauce! If I’m going the cream cheese route, it’s usually an everything bagel toasted with a mix of jalapeno cream cheese and veggie cream cheese 😉
