Made the Right Way. Every Day. There's a reason our bagels taste different--they're made the traditional way. At Manhattan Bagel, we give each bagel a dip in a kettle of boiling water, then bake them fresh each morning. That's how we get our authentic shiny bagels with a crispy, golden crust on the outside and that soft, satisfying chew inside. No shortcuts. Just real, authentic bagels made the way they were always meant to be. We kettle-boil our bagels to lock in that shine and crunch, then bake them fresh daily for a chewy, golden bite. No shortcuts, just the classic NY method - done right, right here, every day.

Ordered and everything bagel toasted and got an egg bagel. When I walked back in she argued with me saying I ordered an egg bagel. I have never in my life ordered such a thing. Then I reminded her I asked for it toasted as she was putting cream cheese on the one side. Her response was we only toast the one side. She was quite rude. No apology for messing up my order just argumentative. I won’t be back. If they can’t get this easy of an order correct I can’t imagine what it would be like to order something more complicated.
