Fishtown’s Philly Style Bagels was an immediate hit when it opened in 2016, so much so that a second location is now open in Old City. The bagels, perfectly firm on the outside and soft inside, are boiled in beer from nearby Yards Brewing Company — can’t get much more Philly than that. Go early: The shops regularly sell out before closing time.

You may know Eeva as a wood-fired pizza restaurant with a great list of natural wines, but on the weekends, it turns into a bona fide local bakery. With sourdough breads, sandwiches, and bagels, Eeva is as much a daytime destination as a nighttime dinner spot. The bakery is open from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays, so get there early if you want to snag a dozen delicious fresh bagels.

Husband-and-wife duo Jacob and Alexandra Cohen have been all over Philly since the pandemic, as the bagel pop-up that they started during the pandemic skyrocketed to the top of everyone’s bagel list. You can find their bagels, as well as their unique schmears everywhere. They’re available in a bunch of local businesses all over the city — here’s the list. But keep an eye open for more Kismet in 2022: Kismet is opening a brick-and-mortar at 113 East Girard Avenue in Fishtown in the spring.

Brothers Brett and Kyle Frankel are baking crusty New York-style bagels at their West Philly shop. Get a baker’s dozen and a container of schmear to go, or try one of the sandwiches, like a classic bacon, egg, and cheese or a deli combo of pastrami-smoked salmon, scallion cream cheese, and cucumbers.

The photogenic black bagels at Kettle Black aren’t pumpernickel — they get their dark coloring from activated charcoal. Vegan diners will be especially happy here: Toppings include dairy-free spreads and house-made vegan lox. Walkups only.

A Jerusalem bagel is a very special thing, and K’Far Cafe’s version is a standout. Order it pressed like a panini with smoked salmon, pickled cucumbers, and za’atar butter for a sandwich-meets-bagel hybrid. Order online for pickup and delivery, Wednesday through Sunday.

Spread’s Montreal-style bagels are hand-rolled, boiled in honey water, and baked in a wood-fired brick oven, and they can thankfully be ordered online. The fast-growing chain has seven locations, including two on the Main Line.

Just across from Washington Square, Knead bakes up some of Philly’s most unusual bagel varieties, like pink peppercorn or togarashi. Layer the bagels with specialty spreads like roasted beet cream cheese or go for a bagel sandwich with sausage, egg, and cheese.

In Queen Village, the Bagel Place boils and bakes its bagels using a touch of honey for a flavorful, chewy final product. Along with more than a dozen creative styles, pretzel bagels are a must-try here. A few of the flavored spreads are one of a kind too, including sour pickle and cheddar horseradish.

At Tova du Plessis’s East Passyunk Avenue bakery, the sourdough and rye-infused New York-style bagels come in plain, poppy seed, sesame, and everything. You can preorder for the next day online.

Bonnie Sarana’s East Passyunk bakery has something for everyone, both sweet and savory, but her bagels — which can be ordered alongside a salmon and fixin’s kit — are out of this world. Try a za’atar bagel with jalapeno cream cheese for a real deal flavor experience. Preorders can be made online.
