Delicious bagels

I got an everything whole wheat bagel with tofu vegetable cream cheese (my favorite). Bagel was toasted perfectly and the cream cheese was tasty! The food came fast given the large number of people as well.

Pros: Food, Atmosphere

Bagel & Bialys Shop with some vegan options

The vegan options available at this bagel shop has 3 tofu cream cheese, fresh orange juice and almond and oat milk for drinks. I recently visited for the first time in a while and had a delicious everything bagel with tofu cream cheese.

Like most other NYC bagel shops

To say that the bagels here are like those you’ll find in other NYC bagel shops is not necessarily a criticism—since all NYC bagel shops have great bagels, and they all offer vegan cream cheese (including many that are not listed on HC). Since I live nearby, I go to this branch of Kossars all the time when I am very hungry and want a filling (if non-nutritious) meal. But there is little that distinguishes this place from a HappyCow perspective. In contrast, the bagel shop across the street offers more vegan options.

Note that this is a branch of the famous Kossars whose flagship store is in the Lower Eastside. I might be influenced by sentimental factors, but from what I recall the Lower Eastside Kossars offers tastier bagels and bialys than this one.
