Ess-a-bagel - Broad Channel

I visited a bagel shop in December 2023 that a friend had recommended. The store was quite popular, with lines forming early in the morning. I waited in line for about 30 minutes before finally getting a cream cheese bagel that was freshly baked for me. While waiting, I checked out Essa Bagel's Instagram to decide what to order, and ended up with a selection of piping hot and delicious bagels. It was a bit confusing at first, but I was eventually able to make my purchase.

I returned for a second visit because I absolutely adored the Avocado Garlic Cream Cheese. It did not disappoint. I just wish the bagel had been a bit crispier and warmer. Overall, a good New York-style bagel. The Avocado Garlic Cream Cheese was particularly enjoyable and had a unique flavor.
