A great chain bagel/pizza joint that boasts it's "New York Style bagel" while I'd argue they're more like Montreal-style (smaller and chewier and, in my opinion, tastier) they are baked perfectly and fill a much needed niche in New Zealand. Having moved here from New York, I was quite delighted to check this place out!
The restaurant is clean and modern and has great eye-appeal. You can create your own bagel sandwiches (for $7.50) or select one of their options (~$9/10). I tried the Pilgram with chicken, bacon, mayo and tomato salsa on a rock salt bagel. I HIGHLY recommend the combo. While the sandwich lacks the amount of fillings a New York bagel would have, it is still satisfying. My husband had the Big Schnitz and he enjoyed it, too. Haven't tried the pizza, but if it's anything like the bagels, you're taste buds are in for a treat. Don't want a sandwich? You can also buy their bagels as bagel chips! read more
