Bagel Shops Are Blossoming In Belmar!
March means many things in the Rat’s basecamp of Belmar/Lake Como. Spring is on the way, the Saint Ratrick’s Season begins with the annual Belmar St Patty’s Parade, and well, with that comes those green bagels.
This year is a bit different though as we have a brand new bagel shop in on section of town, and a well known local name in bagels getting set to open a new shop of their own, not too far away.
First off, new to the scene is Hot Bagels, Belmar’s Finest, at 703 9th Avenue, in the spot of the former Belmar Bagel Cafe. They were selling bagels in shop as well as from a stand out in front of the storefront for the folks getting off the train and making their way to the St Patty’s parade this past Sunday. Meanwhile,
We secured our green bagels for the office from this new place, and they were delicious.
We snagged some photos of the new establishment and it looks like they not only have a ton of different bagels, but their cream cheese game is on point! Also, Hot Bagels has a great location that helped the former shop gain a lot of loyal customers, which is sure to continue if they keep baking great product like we had Sunday. You can check out their menu at their website: https://www.belmarbagels.com/
Meanwhile…
The next place is a familiar name to the Jersey Shore, The Corner Bagelry, which has more than one location in Monmouth County. For many years they occupied a spot at 1104 Main Street, in Belmar. Now they will be moving a bit farther south on Main, opening soon at 1012 Main Street, the former Stained Glass Gallery.
Moreover, This space is without a doubt a much bigger spot than the original Main Street location, and should bolster the Corner Bagelry’s already expansive breakfast and lunch menu. I actually was able to snap some photos of the new build out during my ride on the Rat’s parade float! Their menu can be found at https://www.cornerbagelry.com/
So, if you’re in Belmar and need a little shmeer, you will soon have two great new spots to get your nosh on!
