Up north, my go to place is Manhattan Bagels. Boiled then baked in a variety of flavors. Anything like this is the area.

Thanks FRED

Brooklyn Bagel on 441

Publix has good frozen bialys

Brooklyn Bagel on 441 in the Best Buy/Joann's/Pet Smart shopping center. Closest thing to "home" and lotsa selections. After going there once, I now call day before or soon after they open to reserve what I want just to make sure they are not sold out when I get there! lol

Panera will always substitute in a pinch or desperation!

I'll second the vote for Brooklyn Bagels. They have really good garlic bagels, and their sandwiches are huge. My recommendation:

Toasted garlic bagel with lox and cream cheese, capers (there's an extra charge for capers), and raw onion. Buy a second bagel, ask for a knife.

Scrape off half the cream cheese onto the other bagel, take half the lox off the first and add it to the second, do the same with the onions and if they're generous with the capers, do it with those too.

Now you have 2 very filling lox and cream cheese sandwiches for the price of one that's way too much "stuff" on it for one person to eat by themselves anyway.

I believe this sandwich is called the Williamsburg, you just have to ask for and pay extra for the capers.

They definitely put on too much cream cheese.

Everybody does

If money is not an issue order from Zabars. I just got an order, the bagels are good, but the nova and smoked salmon are outstanding.

We’re from northern NJ just outside NYC & the only thing close is Brooklyn Water Bagel. Been here 15 yrs & still haven’t found real NY pizza, bialys, & hard rolls. Nothing like Taylor ham, aka Taylor pork roll, & cheese on a real bagel or toasted hard roll.

Nothing compares with New York area bagels . Best bet is to have friends bring down a bag .

There are no bagel shops south in The Villages, not even in Brownwood Paddock Square, and nothing south of the turnpike. When I want a dozen bagels (to freeze) I have to travel 30 minutes to the north side, or go to Sumter Landing to Paneras for bagels.

Try Yalhala Bakery...it's nearby. I buy Taylor Ham on the internet... it's a little expensive. I haven't lived in Jersey since 1965 but I still love this sandwich.
