David's Bagels

Operating since 1987, this neighborhood bakery offers an unpretentious, budget-friendly alternative to NYC’s hyped bagel destinations. The bagels are toasted to a distinct crunch on the outside with a soft, bready interior, piled with generous spreads. While the classic bacon, egg, and cheese is a staple, the menu also features a heavily garlic-forward chive spread and highly rated vegan tofu cream cheese. Service is fast and straightforward, making it a reliable daily stop that skips the steep price tags.
