I was born and raised in New Jersey, so I have very high standards for bagels. Without a doubt, Brownstein's makes the best bagels in Rochester, on par with the best bagel shops from back home. I only wish they were open more than two days a week.

Softer bagels than Bagel Land i think. Their spinach bagel is sooo flavorful & lots of interesting flavors. Excellent value. I’m not a couple days a week so grab a few at a time but they stay so soft! Best bagels in Rochester IMO.

Olive rosemary bagel? Olive pimento cream cheese? Sign me up. Somehow even combing that made it not overwhelming. Even though the line was long on new years eve, it moved along.
