The guys at Bagel O's sure know their way around a good, chewy bagel. No surprise considering they're using the highest quality produce from local suppliers like Frank Torre, Kailis Bros and The Mushroom Guys and making everything they can from scratch in-house. Think: house smoked pastrami with soft egg and American cheese, Nona's meatballs oozing with mozzarella, tomato sugo and basil pesto, and a Cubano made with the juiciest mojo roast pork alongside swiss cheese, their own pickles, mustard, iceberg lettuce and dill mayo.
Kosher Providore
Menora WA 6050

This iconic bakery and grocery store has been offering up the best in authentic boiled bagels since 1985. You’re spoilt for choice with Kosher Providore’s massive range of bready goodness, but we recommend trying the chocolate or blueberry bagels. You can find their delicious bread offerings fresh in their bakery in Menora, or in some of Perth’s best cafes, independent grocery stores, and IGA’s.

Satchmo is the New Orleans-style eatery of our dreams. Alongside its oh so popular rueben sandwich are Satchmo’s iconic bagels piled high with local, fresh produce. We can’t go past the Satchmo, stuffed with corned beef, roast tomato, gruyère cheese, pickles and ranch. If you’re looking for a guilt-free option, try the Holy Garden with roast pumpkin, wilted kale, fried halloumi and hummus.

Getting their bagels from The Holy Bagel Co, Hylin adds egg, bacon and the most delicious sauce to bring us their famous brekky bagel. Their New Yorker Rueben bagel is also ridiculous and should be added to your bagel bucket list stat.
