StreetLevel: More Dough For Fourth Avenue

Fourth Avenue may be busting at the seams with condos of dubious architectural merit, but until recently it’s lacked the most basic of New York amenities: A bagel shop. Now that Brownstone Bagel & Bread Company has opened on the corner of Union, that is—very happily—no longer the case. The store boasts tin ceilings, a tiled floor and nine kinds of bagels (photo on the jump). Even better, the owner is looking to keep the joint open 24-7, which would definitely be a boon to an avenue where wee-hour options basically begin and end with KFC and Mickey D’s. Anyone sampled the goods yet? GMAP
The Bagels are baked Fresh daily. Spoke with the owner today. He is starting to bake twice daily. I have to try lunch
6:11 is right on. Bergen Bagle is excellent. I used to go there all the time when I lived in PH.
i had the bagels this morning and they were excellent. as the previous reader stated the baking is done on premises and they were great. be there tomorrow morning see you there 🙂
I tried an onion bagle. It was an embarrassment for a new york bagel. Will not return.
The bagel joint on Bergen Street near the police station is the very best in Brooklyn. Hands down.
The baking is on premises so it is fresh… Bagels are excellent!
Looks great. Would like a place like that here in Clinton Hill somewhere on Fulton St between Classon and Clinton Ave.That would be greatttttttttt.Hope someone is listening.Myrtle’s Bergenbagels is a little trek from me.
was there this afternoon, ordered one of the sandwiches for lunch. i have to say was pretty impressed. everything was fresh and the owner was really cool and down to earth. definitely will be going back… going to try the bagels and coffee tomorrow morning…
this place looks really charming.
good to hear about it.
thanks.
