Layla Bagels

Next to Ghisallo, this Ocean Park storefront is helping meet the city’s overflowing demand for Montreal-style bagels. Though lines are, for now, nowhere as long as the more eastward Courage Bagels, those hoping for a taste of Layla’s delicious open-face creations should arrive early and anticipate at least a half-hour wait to order. Once at the counter, you’ll find a mix of savory and sweet options like the must-order Pre-Jam (seasonal fruit, cream cheese and honey), plus specialy coffee and matcha drinks. There’s also a small “not bagels” section that includes muffins, challah bread and overnight oats.
