Where to find the Triangle' s best bagels

Brandwein's Bagels in Chapel Hill. Photo: Zachery Eanes/Axios Call us biased, but the Triangle has some dang good bagels. Even New Yorkers say so. 1. : Located in Raleigh's Transfer Food Hall, Benchwarmers is worth waiting in the long weekend line for. Their bagels are baked in a wood-fired oven and are reliably delicious.Lucille's order: Salt bagel with pimento and scrambled egg, plus a dirty chai. Zachery's order: A No. 6 (fried bologna, mustard, cheese and egg) on a salt bagel. Controversial opinion alert: Don't sleep on Benchwarmers pizza nights. Lucille thinks it's the best pizza in town. 2. : Nestled in Durham's Food Hall, Everything Bagels has some of the most creative bagels and unlikely flavor combinations around. Lucille's order: Pretzel bagel with egg and cheese (and an iced vanilla latte from Liturgy, while you're there.) Zachery's order: Purple sweet potato or spicy fig bagel with miso blueberry cream cheese. 3. : Chapel Hill's classic take on a New York bagel. Made from locally sourced ingredients, like many of the local bagel shops in the Triangle.Zachery's order: The egg and cheese on a poppy seed or onion bagel. 4. : Hand-rolled bagels in Cary. Plus, to Zach’s great excitement, they have B’donuts. Lucille's order: Asiago bagel with scallion cream cheese.
