Where to Find the Best Bagels in Las Vegas
Eater Las Vegas
The perfect bagel boasts a crispy, crusty exterior; a fluffy, chewy middle; and subtle flavor just salty enough to pair with a heaping scoop of cream cheese. Look to the great bagels found on the East Coast, where purveyors conduct a “knock test” — rapping their knuckles over the bagels’ hard crust and then theatrically ripping it open, revealing a steaming and slightly doughy texture. Indeed, for a truly life-affirming bagel, you’ll have to venture to the other side of the country. But that doesn’t mean you can’t find a passable — or even very good — bagel in Southern Nevada. These bakeries make bagels with chewy centers, deep golden crusts, and robust selections of cream cheese, smoked fish, and salty capers. Siegel’s Bagelmania – For all things round bread, this bagel spot also houses a Pinkbox Doughnuts inside. Located near the Las Vegas Convention Center, this behemoth of a breakfast restaurant can put together big shareable trays of bagels and spread, for enjoying sesame, salted pretzel, and pumpernickel bagels, plus bialys.
