Ess-A-Bagel Isn’t Just For Breakfast
Authentic Bagels from Ess A Bagel
Forget the “free” continental breakfast in your hotel and head out onto the streets for some breakfast on the go….NYC style. Hey, we talk on cell phones, drive, and chew gum at the same time. There’s nothing like checking out a neighborhood when it’s still waking up early in the morning with a chewy bagel in one hand and a steaming coffee in the other to give you that heightened perception.
Stop over at Ess-A-Bagel where espresso and multi-flavored cappuccinos are custom brewed and hand-rolled bagels are just the beginning! For under $5, you can have a piping hot Spinach or Potato Knish, rugelach, or pick from their wide variety of soups. Or simply grab a basic pumpernickel bagel and smother it with blueberry cream cheese.
And so what if you don’t visit in the morning. They sell fish, salads and cheeses by weight to take home. For dessert they also have a diverse assortment of cakes, pastries, muffins, and cookies. I think the best part is their cappuccinos are brewed to order.

Steve, I couldn’t agree more. Ess-A has, hands down, the best bagels in NYC. It’s also worth noting that they do not toast bagels, as most of their varieties are usually available hot, fresh from the oven. The many cream cheese options — the rich, flavorful lox spread being my favorite — along with a friendly staff, make Ess-A-Bagel a must-visit for those stopping in the city.
Thanks so much Andy for seconding my enthusiasm for Ess-A-Bagel! And just think that some folks out there consider frozen bagels to be a reasonable compromise
