"Bagels By The Park is our favorite bagel store in Brooklyn. I get coffee there almost everyday. The bagels are always fresh and the people are so friendly. They also have a cat named Bagels, and if that doesn’t sell you, I don’t know what will. Even though they have great coffee, the best thing about this place is they are such New Yorkers. NY gets a bad rep for being cold and mean, but the truth is, New Yorkers may be direct, but they are also true blue, kind and look out for each other. Last year, I asked my daughter what was on her Christmas list. The only thing she wanted was “the piggy bank from the bagel store.” It’s a plastic pig. I mentioned it to them and they couldn’t remember where they got it. We go in today at the end of March and they remembered and found her one. Nothing more New York than that. Except maybe leaving a review for your favorite bagel store. Go get a bagel and coffee and who knows, they may make your kids year!"
