Full menu

Classic bagels

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.
Cinnamon raisin bagelSwirled with cinnamon and plump raisins, lightly sweet and aromatic; best toasted with butter or plain 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

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.
Strawberry cream cheesePink, fruity spread made with real strawberry pieces, light and sweet against a plain or blueberry bagel.
Tofu scallion spreadPlant-based spread whipped from tofu and seasoned with scallions and lemon; a dairy-free stand-in with a similar tang.
