Kossar's Bagels & Bialys

The menu offers specialty spreads, smoothies, and brews from La Colombe coffee alongside build-your-own options like a salmon pastrami bagel with avocado. Inside, the shop has a very small dining area where lines frequently form outside. The ordering process is fast-paced, so it helps to know what you want and speak up clearly. Given the tight space, most people grab their sandwiches to go, with some heading to nearby Central Park to eat.
