Around since 1976, Ess-A-Bagel is a true bagel classic. Their motto is “everything on a bagel,” which couldn’t be more fitting. Locals order their bagel topped with anything from tuna fish salad, chicken cordon bleu, chopped liver and more. Don’t let the massive menu intimidate you-everything tastes outta’ this world!

New York locals have a few culinary treats that are loved across the board: pizza, black-and-white cookies, and bagels. It’s the last one that we’re in love with the most--round circles of yumminess with a chewy exterior and a soft and flavorful interior. Nothing says “Big Apple” than a fluffy, satisfying bagel, and let’s face it… NYC should really be called the “Big Bagel” since it’s such a popular food item in these parts.

For this list, we’re sticking to the most popular Manhattan neighborhood--midtown. Check out our list of NewYorkCityTourist’s favorite bagel shops in Midtown for a bagel experience you won’t regret.
