Brooklyn Water Bagels - finally tried them.
First thing is that the price I saw for a bagel at Brooklyn Water Bagels on this forum was incorrect. The price for 1 bagel is $1.29. For a baker's dozen (13), it's $11.99, which comes to less than a $1 a bagel.
Next thing is the bagels are excellent. Not a donut shaped piece of bread like you get at Dunkin' Donuts for $.99, but a real honest to goodness boiled, then baked little piece of heaven.
You cannot compare these to any other so-called bagel I've had in Florida, but they're definitely on a par with any bagel you might get up north in the NY, NJ area. Some bagel shops up north might make them a bit bigger than these, but not much better.
I usually transport bagels down from NJ when I visit. I won't have to do that anymore if Brooklyn Water Bagels succeed in their business here.
If you haven't tried them yet, please do, you won't be disappointed. It's just too bad they're not golf cart accessible.
