What is a NJ/NY Style bagel?

Crunchy on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside...a great NJ/NY bagel has little air pockets on the outer skin of the bagel. These air pockets contribute to the wonderful crunch and are a result of the unique fermentation process + boil/bake process we use.

Do you have Gluten Free bagels?

Sorry, we do not offer GF bagels. Our shop isn't large enough to strictly adhere to the requirements. We do offer to make any of our sandwiches as lettuce wraps.

Are your bagels Vegan?

The majority of our bagels are in fact Vegan. The only bagels that currently contain dairy products are our cheese bagels and our cinnamon sugar crunch bagels. Even our chocolate chip bagel contains non-dairy semi-sweet morsels.

Where do your lox (cold-smoked salmon) come from?

The Atlantic Ocean and prepared in Brooklyn, NY!

How to preserve the bagels?

Freeze bagels in Ziploc bags (individually wrap in plastic wrap if possible.)

To defrost the bagels, either allow them to thaw at room temperature for a few hours, ensuring they are still inside the Ziploc bags to prevent drying out.

OR, microwave up to 20 seconds in order to slice and begin toasting the bagels

*** before toasting the bagel(s), apply a lite amount of tap water on both sides of the inside of the bagel. The moisture & heat from the toaster will cause a steam effect which will nicely reactivate the bagel.

Should I have you slice my bagels?

If you plan to have your bagels eaten on the SAME day, we would be happy to slice them for you. Once our bagels are sliced open and the air hits the inside of the bagel ("the crumb"), the bagel will lose its freshness rapidly.

Our bagels can stay fresh for up to 5 days unsliced if kept in a brown paper bag without air inside the bag (bonus points if you place that brown paper bag inside a Ziplock bag!)
