Where to Find Real NY Style Bagels in Miami

Miami has world class Cuban food, stone crabs, and stone oven pizza. What it doesn't have a lot of is real New York style bagels. Most places sell round bread. A true NY bagel is kettle boiled and hand rolled, and you can taste the difference immediately.

Three signs you're eating a real NY bagel

1. The crust has a slight snap and a glossy sheen from the boil
2. The inside is dense and chewy, not fluffy like a dinner roll
3. It's still warm because it was baked that morning, not shipped frozen

The Aventura secret worth the drive

From Brickell, Wynwood, Miami Beach, or Sunny Isles, Bagel Cove is a straight shot up Biscayne. We've been hand rolling and kettle boiling since 1988, and locals from all over Miami Dade make the trip on weekends. Order a dozen mixed and a half pound of Nova. You'll see.
