Don’t waste your time. They are not good.[/quote]

They are not good at all. Doughy and bland.

Another vote for Bagels etc. Nothing comes close.

+1 for Bullfrog.

I wish I could get Buffalo and Bergen's bagel sandwich options or Call Your Mother's candied salmon cream cheese on a Bullfrog bagel. That would be perfect.

Bethesda Bagels and CYM don't get the texture right. People around here aren't used to good bagels.

I haven't tried buffalo and bergen but imagine they have potential.


I am used to good bagels, I grew up in Westchester. I have lived here 30 years. Bethesda Bagels used to be decent, but they have changed their recipe/method and they suck now, agree the texture is wrong and too similar to a roll.

WHY is it so hard to make good bagels outside of the tri-state area?? And don’t feed me the line about the water.
