Hoodline crunched the numbers to find the top bagel outlets in Fair Lawn, using both Yelp data and our own secret sauce to produce a ranked list of the best spots to achieve your dreams.
1. River Road Hot Bagels
Topping the list is River Road Hot Bagels. Located at 13-30 River Road, the breakfast eatery is the highest rated bagel spot in Fair Lawn, boasting 4.5 stars out of 121 reviews on Yelp.
In 2016, River Road Hot Bagels won the "Best Bagel in Bergen County" in the DVlicious contest, according to the Daily Voice. On the menu, expect to find a wide selection of bagels and breakfast sandwiches. Look for the veggie cream cheese and lox bagel or the Taylor ham, egg and cheese sandwich.
Yelper Taylor H. wrote, "I can safely say River Road's sandwich is among the best you can find in Bergen County. Delicious, thick slices of Taylor ham and perfectly soft eggs between two slices of hot melted cheese on a buttery, soft bagel. Need I say more?"
2. Hot Bagels
Hot Bagels, located at 607 Saddle River Road, is another top choice, with Yelpers giving the spot to score bagels and more four stars out of 53 reviews.
Hot Bagels offers a wide selection of bagel and breakfast sandwiches, combination platters, wraps, sandwiches, salads and muffins. Bagel toppings range from basic butter and jelly to scallion or sun-dried tomato cream cheese.
Yelper Jason E. wrote, "I don't know how they get it to be so crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside — so hot and moist and satisfying — but the bar for bagels has risen indefinitely because of this place."
3. Top Bagels & Deli
Top Bagels & Deli, a deli that offers sandwiches and bagels, is another much-loved go-to, with 4.5 stars out of 12 Yelp reviews. Head over to 34-05 Broadway to see for yourself.
Top Bagels & Deli offers a wide variety of breakfast and lunch plates, including egg sandwiches and salads, wraps, paninis and omelets. On the bagel menu, expect to find updated versions of the breakfast staple, including the "flagel" bagel, a flattened bagel, mini, low carb or bialy, a baked bagel with a depression in the center instead of a hole.
Craving something sweet? Look for its homemade baklava, hot chocolate, coffee or tea.
Yelper Matt C. wrote, "Everything is fresh and carefully prepared. Bagels are full of crunch and flavor and the cream cheese spreads are delicious."
