Pick A Bagel is a casual, counter-serve bagel shop known for its large, fresh, and chewy bagels with a solid range of vegan cream cheese spreads, especially tofu-based options including scallion and vegetable varieties. The venue is popular for breakfast and lunch with fast service, though seating is limited and can feel cramped. Prices are mid-range for NYC, with generous portions, and while the staff can be less friendly at times, the overall quality and vegan offerings are appreciated by many.
