The Original Hot Bagels
131 E Main St, Newark, DE
Crema's Take
“This beloved Newark institution has earned a devoted following for their fresh, perfectly chewy bagels that keep customers coming back week after week, making it a genuine must-visit for bagel enthusiasts in the area. The energy here is genuine and bustling—expect a packed house on weekends where you're rubbing shoulders with other locals who know a good thing, though the cozy, cramped interior means service is efficient and straightforward. Stop in for a hot bagel and a coffee with genuine care from staff members who'll go the extra mile to make your visit special.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu. Family friendly.

Joshua was extremely sweet and helpful with my mother who was visiting from Oregon and had a kerfuffle of a time trying to make her orders - but everything came out delicious! Thank you! 10/10 recommend and will try again whenever in the area!
