Master Critic Review
Bagel Belly
7.6
A smaller East Village shop with hand-rolled bagels and a friendly, low-key counter setup. The bagels are sturdy and satisfying, and the sandwich menu leans creative without going overboard. A good under-the-radar stop when bigger spots are slammed.
Must-Try Dishes:
Bacon, egg & cheese on an everything bagel, Rainbow bagel with funfetti cream cheese, Smoked salmon bagel sandwich
