I love fresh bagels. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. On a recent trip to the Jersey shore, we had to make a stop at hot bagels and more to savor their assortment of incredible bagels and spreads for breakfast.

The atmosphere is super casual two blocks to the beach with a small counter if you want to dine in. The bagels are fantastic; I had a poppy bagel scooped and toasted with chive cream cheese. It was everything I expected and more. I had a challenging time deciding as so many choices like strawberry and chocolate chip bagels. There is savory and sweet.

We also tried the everything and marble bagels with plain & lox spread. Every bagel is made to order and delicious. Go early to skip the lines.

I adore a hazelnut coffee lightly sweetened with a tad of cream. Hot bagels and more do not disappoint when it comes to its coffee selection served hot or iced. Good hazelnut coffee just makes me feel relaxed. With multiple locations in south Jersey, it is worth the stop for tasty fresh bagels and cream cheese spreads!
