Best Bagels Anywhere
by dancendrink at Citysearch
I just love Ess-a-Bagel. I've been coming here for 8 years and I have never sampled a better bagel. Fresh baked, they're hot a crispy on the outside and steamy soft on the inside. I love the veggie cream cheese and white fish salad. They give so much cream cheese, I like to buy an extra bagel and make a second sandwich for later. Just be prepared for a wait at peak times, watch out for tourists with lots of shopping bags, and bring your appetite. They also have reliable delivery.
- Pros: Best bagels anywhere, large variety of bagels, schmears, and salads
- Cons: Long waits
Great cream cheese, reasonable.

I had the whole wheat bagel - was trying to be healthy. I guess next time I would try something flavored. The creamcheese here was great, I tried the LITE veggie cream cheese and sundried tomato CC... they were both excellent.
Next time i'd wanna try the jalapeno CC.
$3.35 for a bagel with cream cheese.
coffee here was pretty good too.
- Pros: Cream Cheese, Bagel, Cost
- Cons: none
