Moonrise Bagels

Moonrise Bagels transforms the classic New York bagel into high art, packing each golden ring with decadent fillings like buffalo chicken, bacon-egg-and-cheese, and other over-the-top combinations that feel tailor-made for the city’s most devoted carb lovers. Born as a husband-and-wife passion project in the Hudson Valley and now at home in the West Village, the shop channels a nostalgic “neighborhood bookstore” warmth, complete with a polished yet unfussy interior and a full espresso bar that can hold its own against the city’s serious coffee temples. With thoughtfully crafted sauces and an everything-from-scratch ethos, it’s the kind of spot where a stuffed bagel becomes an experience-indulgent, joyful, and distinctly New York.
