Olmo
93 Whitney Ave, New Haven, CT
Crema's Take
“Olmo is a beloved bagel destination at the edge of Yale where the lines are long for good reason—their inventive creations like the okonomiyaki-filled everything everything bagel are genuinely life-changing, with a chewy-crispy texture that justifies the hype. The tiny shop has perfected their system with kiosk ordering and outdoor waiting, and the energy inside (think staff dancing behind the counter) matches the excellence of their bagels and thoughtfully crafted cream cheese varieties. Whether you're grabbing a classic or diving into their specialty sandwiches, this is exactly the kind of neighborhood gem that becomes a must-visit ritual.”
What to expect
