Long Island is known for many things—its beaches, the Gold Coast, Billy Joel—but our consistently good bagels are a particular point of pride. Fresh bagels from Long Island are highly valuable commodities in less fortunate places, aka the entire country outside of the tristate area. 

While this is by no means a comprehensive list, here are some solid bagel stores to start at in pursuit of your next gluten fix.

Like A&S in Franklin Square, Bagel Boss is open 24/7 and offers a wide variety of bagels. What makes this shop unique is that all 13 locations are kosher establishments, which means they follow important guidelines overseen by a rabbi. They also cater any event or holiday and can create bagels in crazy colors to accommodate it.

Multiple locations—Bay Shore, Carle Place, East Northport, East Norwich, Hewlett, Hicksville, Jericho, Lake Success, Merrick, Oceanside, Roslyn and Manhattan.
