"Bagels By The Bay has outdone the entirety of NY bagels, and dare I say God, with their perfection. These bagels will change your life. I grew up in NY I've had all the bagels. I've since moved out of NY, and for 6 years now I cannot TELL you how often I think of these particular bagels. I've had literal dreams of these bagels. Wake yourself up at 5:00 if you have to. Get there exactly when they open, and experience the joy of a warm Bagel by the Bay. I am currently sitting at my desk, hundreds of miles away, eating a sad grocery store bagel. Please, if you have the opportunity to visit this wonderful place, know that I am shedding a tear of joy on your behalf."
