Full menu

Classic bagels

  • Everything bagelTopped with sesame, poppy seed, dried garlic, onion and coarse salt for a savory, crunchy crust in every bite.
  • Sesame bagelCoated in sesame seeds that toast in the oven, adding a nutty aroma and fine crunch over the malt-sweetened dough.
  • Poppy seed bagelRolled in blue-black poppy seeds that give a subtle, earthy flavor and a pleasant pop against the glossy crust.
  • Onion bagelTopped with dried onion flakes that turn sweet and lightly charred in the oven; a natural match for lox and cream cheese.

Specialty bagels

  • Jalapeño cheddar bagelDough folded with diced jalapeños and baked under melted cheddar, bringing mild heat and salty, tangy cheese.
  • Salt bagelPlain dough heavily crusted with coarse pretzel salt; bold and briny, and especially good with a smear of butter.
  • Whole wheat bagelMade with stone-ground whole wheat flour for a nuttier taste, darker crust and slightly denser, more rustic chew.
  • Blueberry bagelPurple-tinted dough studded with dried blueberries, sweet and fruity; usually paired with honey or strawberry cream cheese.

Cream cheese & spreads

  • Scallion cream cheeseCream cheese mixed with plenty of chopped green onion for a mild, fresh oniony bite and flecks of color.
  • Lox spreadWhipped cream cheese blended with chopped smoked salmon, giving a salty, smoky spread without a full lox sandwich.
  • Vegetable cream cheeseCream cheese folded with finely diced carrot, celery, bell pepper and radish for crunch and a garden-fresh taste.
  • Honey walnut cream cheeseSweet cream cheese swirled with honey and chopped toasted walnuts; rich and crunchy, best on cinnamon raisin.
