The Bagelers Coffeehouse 8.7
Lincoln Park
The Bagelers Coffeehouse is a Lincoln Park staple for kettle-boiled bagels, house-made cream cheeses, and breakfast sandwiches that lean more craft café than corner deli. Locals use it as an all-day bagel and coffee stop, from work sessions at the communal tables to quick grab-and-go mornings.
Must-Try Dishes: The Bageler breakfast sandwich, Sea salt bagel with giardiniera cream cheese, Cheddar jalapeño bagel with garlic chive spread
