Water makes all the difference in the world the way your food /coffee/ bagels taste. Most places I go to they don’t use any filtration. A good way to tell if a restaurant is purifying their water is to order a glass of water and see if it tastes good. Most of the time you can smell and taste chlorine.
Also I have heard some places have their water sent here from NY ( not sure if it’s true) and that’s why their food tastes so good.
Clean purified water equals great tasting food and drink!

From Brooklyn Water Bagels website:
“ THE WATER
By using our proprietary water treatment system, known as “Brooklyn Water Works,” Brooklyn Water Bagel® can successfully replicate the natural composition of the water that flows through the Catskill Mountains in upstate New York into the homes of Brooklyn residents.
This replication is accomplished by filtering local water down to its purest, most natural state, and then adding unique elements found only in our water. Our advanced technology allows us to transform any source of tap water in the world into clean, safe drinking water, which is used in every recipe, beverage, ice cube, and kettle used to boil our bagels.”
So, in effect, it’s simply a marketing tool.
