I have commuted the stretch of Route 17 from the NY border to Newark Airport for the better part of ten years. In that time, I've sampled every bagel shop along the route. The bagels at Bagel Train are unquestionable the best in the entire region. The place is non-descript and the only telltale of the popular bagels in the frequent (but fast moving) line out the door. I've hand carried these beauties to California, Boston, Miami and Mexico (and even by car to NYC) to family and friends, all to rave reviews. Try it and see for yourself.
I consider these bagels superior to H&H in New York and as good as those in Fairway's bakery.
