Bagel King |
|
(Restaurants - American) |
|
231 Hope St E, Stamford 06906 203-406-9645 |
 |
| |
Description:
These bagels are fantastic! Bagel King prepares their fresh, doughy delicacies daily. The shop's bagels are hand rolled – a labor-intensive process. The fresh bagel taste is superb when compared to machine rolled and processed bagels. Because of its early hours, Bagel King is a favorite with managers who pick up a dozen for the office. |
