I smashed the like button!
You got to do a Long Island bagel video
A family member ordered Utopia for me and they arrived in Texas in excellent shape…..and 3 days later had Mysteriously 😎 disappeared!
hahah you better file a missing persons report
H and H used to be great
That crunch when you bit into the Utopia bagel sold it for me.
Love some flies on a bagel. Essa Bagel has you covered
A bagel isn’t just for breakfast, but lunch dinner and snacks as well! 👍🏻
So true!
I love the arguments among New Yorkers about who has the best bagel and who has the best pizza. Somehow it’s like they are all right if you know what I mean. So many amazing options to fit all tastes. And most of them, even at their most average, are better than what we poor non-New Yorkers have to eat…gotta get back again to get my fix…
We're travelling in November to NYC for the first time and these videos feel like the Bible to us, we're studying so much! Thank you for your content!!!!
I'm so glad!
Big point about Ess-a-Bagel. First, they originally were across the street, but lost their lease. After that, they moved and the partners split. One owns only the 1st avenue location and the other owns the 3rd Avenue and all the other locations around the city. For my money, the 1st Avenue location, which I started eating at during lunch breaks from Stuyvesant High School, is by far the best.
One place you don't have on here is Russ and Daughters which makes a heavenly cream cheese, lox and bagel.
Went in june to Absolute because of your previous video... What a fantastic place! The nova is GOOOOOD!
Always nice seeing a video with Greg!
My first trip to NY is week ahead and since my hotel is half block away I'll probably end up in Ess-a-Bagel
Big shout out and love to you bro. Been watching lots of ur videos ahead of a trip to NYC, made my trip awesome ❤
Had a bagel at BTS on W40th street, everything bagel with cream cheese, salmon, tomatoe, capers - amazing 👌🏽
I'll hit up some of these restaurants when I'm in the city
Omg i love bagels been waiting for this episode!
this is Food Network/Travel Chanel level content. Great video man!
You had me at Everything Bagel. Miss those.
John the best. Really combined so many worlds and keeping it fresh. 🌊🌊🙏🌊🌊
Thank u very much for all your work. I think I need more than one life to see the whole New York city
I love the first one you had at Utopia with all the crunch 👌…and I love stores that use cash only like Absolute Bagels….woohoo ❤
Excellent list! Thanks HBB👍🏽
Being a celiac, I can only enjoy bagels vicariously through your video! But, your enjoyment makes it a fun experience!
My wife has Celiac and I will be visiting Modern Bread and Bagel and bringing her back what I hope to be a fantastic treat for her.
I have tried all gluten free bread and bagels…..trader Joe makes the best GF sliced bread. I have not found a great gf bagel
@@arribaficationwineho32 Same here.
Great content as usual! I need a bagel asap🥯!
Greg's excitement at 1:44 made me chuckle.
Those are pretty awesome looking bagels. Cheers, Jon! 👍🏻👍🏻✌️
Utopia bagels especially looks delicious!
Amazing video! Amazing looking bagels!
Between the Bagel NY in Astoria definitely belongs in this video!We happened to stay at a nearby rbnb and it was truly an amazing discovery
Yay Greg!! Love when you guys collab! And the BAGELS 🥯 😮 my daughters wedding is this fall but after that all my money is going towards my EPIC NYC FOOD TOUR!!!
Omg. These bagels looks so delicious. 😋😋😋❤❤❤
Russ & Daughters is my favorite.
I also went to Brooklyn Bagel & Coffee company which were the big fluffy bagels like Ess a Bagels. Those were great too.
Now I have to have a bagel 🥯 at some point today. Really enjoyed this tour, well done. #loveforben
toasted plain bagel with butter is perfect. No place like NY to get a bagel. The rest of the country is missing out
👍❤️ Grew up on NY bagels. So good!
If I was visiting on a tight schedule and a local took me to the hipster bagel place- I would start to cry!
Thankkkksss I’ll be there in one week definitely will try one bagel
Utopia Bagels still is the one bagel place I will try to go first the next time I'm in NYC. The bagels there literally look like heaven and the other bagel place that I also go to in New Jersey is Teaneck Road Hot Bagels.
Went too Absolute Bagels from the Netherlands and the Bagels tasted realy good. Good luke you all.
Amazing hats off man great job❤👍
I’ve been to all those places, and they are all excellent. However, I was so flabbergasted and how great the bagels were at H&H on the upper east. I thought it was just a tourist rip off, but they were excellent.
Going to NYC on January, I'm definitely gonna try these! they look so good🤭
When I was in NYC I tried the bagel from the Best Bagel & Coffee. It was very crowed but we liked a lot.
@HereBeBarr after watching all these videos, I am booked for New York 🙌
Absolute Bagels and Murray's are the stuff of my dreams
Tompkins Square bagels is my go to, especially the Second Ave location.
where I live in the south, there’s only one place that ever had a line. It was a New York style sandwich shop. They sliced everything fresh to order. It was so good and unfortunately they closed. I miss jersey.
I grew up on bagels in NY and even been to some of the Bagel shops mentioned here. What I did not hear is how you tell a really good bagel from just a bagel.
First - you will never get a great bagel if they do not make them on the premises. You are just wasting your money.
Second - If the shop makes all the bagel early morning before they open then you are missing out the Navona experience. A really good bagel fresh out of the oven and still warm or hot does not need anything on it. Just the texture, warmth and flavor of the bagel should be enough to send your experience to heaven.
Third - What to look for in a bagel? The crust should be thin and crips. If not it is not freshly made.. The inside should be warm, moist and dense. but not chewy like dowy.
Forth Toppings - Whatever your preference is; poppy, sesame, salt, garlic, everything, etc... there should be enough on the top of the bagel to cover it.
Where I grew up there were about a half dozen bagel shops to choose from and every morning they made their bagels fresh as they sold them. Often which bagels we bought more of depended on which one just came out of the ovens., We would first get hand carved lox from the Deli next door and then the bagels. On the way home we all would eat at least 1 bagel while they were still hot. At home we would then make out bagel sandwiches with lox, slice of onion, etc... We never toasted them. You only toast a bagel that is not fresh out of the oven. Sadly few places that sell bagels don't operate the way they have in the past. and that is sad. It is harder to find a good bagel place if you don't live right by one. There are 3 around where I live and they just are not that good. All their bagels are made in advance and none I would say are traditional. They are bigger , lighter and not a real bagel.
My uncle been working at utopia for years! So I get that friends and family treatment 😎
My wife and I and a couple of our friends are heading to NYC next month. I’m craving a good bacon, egg and cheese bagel.
Enjoyed the video, I'm feeling hungry now!
I hope Ben is doing okay
Yes I have to have my bagels every morning 6 days a week from my local Bagel Shack in San Clemente, Ca been going there for 23 years they make the best bagels freshly made always 🤙🤙
Nice!! Utopia was actually on my original itinerary. Bagels are a Tri-State classic, but NYC nails it!
Hell yeah
Dyker Park Bagels, 86th st Brooklyn. Awesome.....
Very delicious looking bagels
"Hi we're looking for Frank" "Ah yes we all are" If that's not the most Italian American shit I've ever heard lmao. I've got too many Frank cousins.
hahaha
@@HereBeBarr Love your stuff buddy! Brooklyn guy here. Keep making great content.
U have to try Jk bakery on union street in flushing Ny. Only grab their bagels at 7-8am when they first open and you’ll see why!
I’m an Orthodox Jew who keeps kosher, and I’m originally from Brooklyn. When I moved to New Jersey, and found out that to some people in my synagogue, the definition of a good bagel here is one from the grocery store, I almost had a fit. Luckily, there are 2 incredible kosher bagel stores within an hour’s drive from where I live now, both owned by non Jews and both have been open for more than 50 years. And yes, it’s worth the hour drive.
Yeah, it's not just Jews running the bagel shops anymore. Heck in my hometown of Fair Lawn, both of my fave spots are Greek owned!
@@HereBeBarr absolutely. In my experience in brooklyn all kosher bagel stores were run by Jewish people, so the concept of non Jews opening up bagel stores that specifically wanted to be kosher was a revelation. Not that non Jews make bagels. That doesn’t surprise me of course. In New York there are hundreds of those.
@@arimermelstein9167Ari, one question! If bagel place which is run by non Jews is trying to be kosher, what about mashgeach supposed to be on premises all the time?
@@homerb3368 no, because all they make there is bagels and muffins. The mashgiach comes every so often to make sure that the ingredients they use haven’t changed (and I assume if they add a new product, they talk to him/her first). And bagel and pizza stores never shut their ovens, so assuming a Jewish person turning on the fire is enough, that happened (and happens if it needs to be refired).
If they did any real cooking, then it would be a problem. But baking without a mashgiach is allowed.
@@arimermelstein9167Thank you, Ari👍
ny may have good bagels, but the hot bagel bakery here in oakhurst, nj are superb! it was the one thing i missed the most when i went to college. they don't do any fancy sandwiches with eggs or anything. just spreads and lox. i love a good one with nothing on it or a hot one with butter that's melted in. once in a while, i'll even go for one with cream cheese.
I grew up in Alphabet City, and I remember bagels back then were like the first two places you went to. Later I was in LA in the 70s - my bagel was like a pillow and I got a half pound of cream cheese - like Ess-a-bagel.
Such a fun day and great video! Glad you got to finally try the legendary Utopia Bagels!
You talked it up for years, and i finally went!
3 more weeks until my first NYC bagel. Thanks to you I feel like this trip will be a blast.
PS: as we're visiting from Belgium, we'd love to see you try out the Belgian eating places in NYC.
3 more weeks until our first time as well! Visiting from California. Sooo unbelievably excited!!❤️
We will be visiting 2nd week of August, coming from Iowa, and definitely have found this channel so helpful in deciding where to go.
2 weeks for me! I didn't try a bagel the first time in NYC 🫤
You guys should try Highway Bagels by Kings Highway in Brooklyn.
oh man! the Cheech looks so appetizing! Love a good breakfast sandwich!
Thank you 😋
Jon
My favorite bagel places is La Bagel Delight. 7ave and President st in Park Slope. I eat there every day. My name is in shrine with the Rangers logo.
i have to try that spot!
@HereBeBarr
Another spot is Emmons Bagels. They are on Emmons Ave and Dooley st in Sheepshead Bay. Right across the street from the Boats. Since I live in Sheepshead Bay and go fishing they are convenient.
I will make sure to eat a bagel next time I'm in town Jon !
Watching now thumbs up!
you should've hit up tal bagel as well. it's literally across the street from essa bagel(although i like essa better).
So only me one saw that fly at Ess-a-Bagel helping himself to a bagel too 😂 11:07
Nothing will beat the Montreal bagel, St- Viateur you must try them
As an Australian who has NEVER had a real bagel, these look mind blowing to me. I hope to make it to the USA one day, and if I do these are on my to-do list.
Bagels are from Poland not usa
Cool. Good to know. I've never had one from Poland either 😉. To be fair, I never said they originated in the USA.
@@spun_01 my problem is that Americans make it sounds like they invented it, truth is that the pioniers brought al the food they eat today.
@@spun_01 they also say a hamburger is real American but the fact is that a hamburger comes from Germany
I like the Turkey and Ham sandwich at the corner store they're good fr
Love this video love n miss New York bagels the very very best
Bill in Fort Wayne Indiana
I knew I should have eaten something before I pressed play on this one, those looks super delicious
They are!
Pumpernickel everything - THE ONLY BAGEL! Please try it.
You got to do a Long Island bagel video
Yes, after the bagel 🥯, I will walk down to Doc. Holiday and wash it down with a beer 🍺.
Thanks to Goldbelly, I've been able to enjoy Utopia bagels in South Texas.....Sooo delicious
Hi John and Greg, I want to try Absolute bagel, thompkins square, and Ess a bagel (Stuyvesant town) location. The bagels 🥯 shipped to Florida lol 😆 😂. All of these locations look good. 🥯🥯🥯🥯🥯🥯🧀🧀🧀🧀🍪🎂🧋 Thai ice tea looks good. 🇹🇭🍵
@ 11:06 you see the flys on the bagles that you are eating. That seems healthy.
Bagels and pizza in NYC are insane , ofcourse cuz of the water filter system they have but man its crazy (south jersey guy)
My son grew up on the original Ess A Bagel when we lived there. When he was teething, he teethed on their bagel.
I was in a culture shock being introduced to their bagels. I grew up when bagels were smaller. Crisp on the outside. They were soft and fresh in the morning and hard as rocks by sundown.
If you watch very close as they order the bagel you see a fly 🪰 on top of the bagels 🤢🤢🤢
You gotta go try Popup Bagels in the West Village.
I can walk to Utopia bagels and I do!!!!
NEVER had, but the pizza bagel must ROCK!?
My favorite is Salt.
As a Jersey girl nothing beats a pork roll everything bagel
Absolute bagels is the best! But get there early on the weekends
The best bagels in New York are on Long Island. Town Bagel in Bellmore, NY and A&S Bagels in Franklin Square,NY
my wife thinks im crazy that i dont toast the bagel... i told her a good bagel doesn't need toast... i feel toast takes away from flavor a bit.
@No85Limits I agree, unless you are getting bagels from Albertsons on Melrose, Vista San Diego County, then toast is a must 😂😅😊
Absolute Bagels are the best went there a lot while in college. Granted, I never went to Russ and Daughters
Come to Greenpoint and Williamsburg if you want a good bagel, court street downtown Brooklyn has a good one as well, there's a couple really good ones in Bensonhurst also you didn't even try to iconic bagel spots this the gentrified bagel review , btw 50yo NYC driver here, i been to em all, Still a solid job although i don't agree with you
Gotta have madd CRAZY 🍦 🧀 for REAL. No doubt 👍😃
St. Viature and Fairmont in Montreal have these guys beat. Not taking anything away from the NY Bagel companies, but the Montreal guys are just doing better.
You guys said it, it's the little details, and the sourdough process at St. Viature and the wood oven makes the difference.
I love thick Chop Liver Bagels with Kosher Dills, YUM.
Bagel Point in Greenpoint bruh 🤤😉
We have Aptopia in Boca Raton
Woooow beautiful ❤️❤️❤️❤️
THE BEST BAGEL C-TOWN RIVERDALE NEW YORK I DON'T NO WHERE THEY GOT THIER BAGELS FROM BUT THE BEST THEY CAME IN THE MORNING STILL WARM IN THE BAG SMALL AS WELL
Am i the only one that saw that fly just chilling on that bagel in ess-a- bagel lol
I ate at Tompkin's Square Bagels on a Friday morning during my holiday in NYC two weeks ago. The bagels were good. However, I was not impressed by their selection of vegan cream cheese. IMHO, the best bagels in NYC are made by the Bagel Hole in Park Slope Brooklyn.
LOVE that spot too.
that's a bagel I dream to have taste .but I only got store bought kind.
Have you compare NJ bagels to NY bagels? Lots of good bagel shops in NJ towns mostly in Bergen County. I have a go to bagel shop right next to work in Paramus. Freshly made from the oven.
@adambuesser6264You are close to one of the best bagels in NJ , the place in Fair Lawn on Saddle River Road called Hot Bagels (at the end of Morlot Ave).
Love Bergen County Bagels, did a video on my fair lawn favorites last summer.
