Amazing authentic bagels sold here. Open 24/7. You can get pre-made bagels here of various flavours. My preference is the egg, cheese, smoked meat and tomato bagel in the morning and a classic smoked meat bagel at 3am after a night out. There are a few around town so it's a must to stop at one of these in town.
