The place near Park Presidio is House of Bagels on Geary near 15th Ave. I like their bagels quite a bit. They are smaller than H & H, but I don’t like really big bagels. I also grew up in New York (the Catskills, where we...

I know it’s a simple request and I had searched for some time then stopped. I do like House of Bagels in the outer Richmond on Geary. They are made fresh daily and you don’t have to toast them to enjoy like you have...

I was in the new Mollie Stone’s in San Mateo. Picked up my usual assorted bagels from the House of Bagels bins and saw the Posh Bagel bins next to the HoB’s. I’d heard of Posh, but never had one. I was...

Bagel House on Bayview near Eglinton, or Avenue near Lawrence. Interesting discussion (though very old): http://www.math.toronto.edu/jjchew/misc/bagel.html

I stopped eating bagels after I moved out here... but I think the closest thing I had to a proper bagel was from House of Bagels. Although, I cross-referenced Yelp to make sure my memory was correct, and people rave about all...

House of Bagels on Geary around 15th Ave. Very chewy.

Manhattan’s not bad, and it’s got a location near me (on Berkeley’s Uberyuppie street, 4th St.), but my vote would be House of Bagels. They’ve got a location on Geary, maybe around 15th and in many...

while st. urbain is a loosely styled ‘montreal style’ bagel the best I have tasted, in toronto, is the bagal house. there are two locations one on avenue road (just above lawernece (wanted to write st. lawerence )...

The downtown St Urbain is in the St Lawrence Market. You can also try Bagel House on Bayview Av near Millwood. That’s very close to downtown by car, but not so easy on the TTC.

I guess I’m a bagel snob—I think Boogie Woogie is just OK. It doesn’t invoke H&H or the late lamented I&Joy bagels (LA) for me. In San Francisco, I’m fondest of House of Bagels, on Geary at about 17th Ave....

The best bagels I’ve found are at House of Bagels at 5030 Geary Blvd (between 14th and 15th avenues). They make a pretty good rye bread and raisin pumpernickel, too.

to just do it yourself. The non-wild lox at Trader Joe’s is excellent (the wild has a too-tough texture, but the flavor is great – I always use it for making lox shmear in the food processor). For the Bagels, I prefer...

If I had to choose just one Toronto bagel, it would be Bagel World’s twister. Hot. With butter. But I also love (in no particular order) Gryfe’s, Bagel House (Toronto’s best Montreal-style bagels), Kiva’s,...

Every six months or so, my mom and I meet in Rockland for brunch. We used to go to the Hudson House in Nyack for brunch, but they changed their menu and now only offer a smoked salmon sandwich. My mom lives in South Carolina so...

south to Portland and hit up Kenny and Zukes, where they make a nice whitefish salad (along with chopped liver, chicken salad, egg salad, etc.) to spread on their delicious house baked bagels and bialys. Sadly, Seattle no longer...
