Authentic New York-style bagel shop delivering chewy, squishy dough and generous schmears, bringing a touch of Manhattan nostalgia to London.
Ordering Strategy
Stick to the New York classics like lox and cream cheese schmears; avoid the attempts at London staples like salt beef.
What to order
Lox and Scallion Schmear on Everything
Considered the benchmark sandwich that any New York bagel spot must get right; it is generously loaded and delivers exactly the nostalgic, satisfying experience expected.
Bacon, Egg, and Cheese
A substantial hot breakfast option, though critics note that the saltiness of the bacon can be overpowering and the egg is fried rather than the traditional thin, folded omelette.
Tunafish
Billed with a specific Americanism, this deli staple is part of the nostalgia-heavy menu that highlights the shop's commitment to authentic New York-style fillings.
