Black Seed’s Williamsburg shop brings the brand’s wood-fired, Montreal-meets-New York bagels to Berry Street, including a gluten-free bagel option that can be swapped into most sandwiches. It’s more of a counter than a café, but for gluten-free eaters who still want a classic lox or egg-and-cheese experience, it’s one of the most practical morning stops in the zip.
Must-Try Dishes:
Gluten-free bagel with smoked salmon and cream cheese, Egg and cheese on a gluten-free bagel, Gluten-free bagel with veggie cream cheese and toppings
