Hello, chilly-weather champions. Clinton the Pigeon here – Myrtle Avenue’s most reliable observer of frosty mornings, bundled-up commuters, and the unmistakable smell of fresh bagels cutting through the winter air. When the temperature drops and the sidewalks sparkle with a little frost, there’s one place on Myrtle Avenue that stays warm, welcoming, and wonderfully toasty: Myrtle Ave Bagels.
Winter might be cold, but breakfast doesn’t have to be.

When the Cold Hits, the Ovens Stay Hot
On winter mornings, I perch a little closer to the shop – not just for the view, but for the heat drifting out the door. Inside, the bakers are already hard at work, rolling dough by hand and preparing the day’s batch of fresh, hot bagels.
The dough is mixed, kneaded, and hand-rolled by skilled bakers before being boiled and baked to perfection. That classic New York process creates a bagel with a crisp exterior and warm, chewy inside – exactly what you want when winter air hits your feathers… or your face.
That first bite – crust crisp, inside soft and steamy – feels especially good when the wind is howling down Myrtle Avenue. Trust me. I’m a bird. I know cold.
Warm Drinks & Winter Comfort
Winter calls for something warm in your hands and something comforting on your plate. At Myrtle Ave Bagels, hot bagels pair perfectly with cozy winter favorites.
A toasted bagel topped with cream cheese.
A hot cup of cocoa or coffee warming your fingers.
The kind of breakfast that makes you slow down just a little.
Whether you’re ducking in from the cold, meeting a friend, or fueling up before a long winter walk, the shop feels like a small winter refuge – one where everyone looks just a bit happier once they’re inside.
A Place to Warm Up All Winter Long
Winter in Brooklyn can be brisk, but inside Myrtle Ave Bagels, it’s always welcoming. Fresh bagels, warm drinks, and a neighborhood atmosphere make it the kind of place you return to all season long.
From my perch outside, watching snowflakes drift past the windows, I can tell you this: there’s nothing cozier than a hot bagel on a cold winter morning.
Stay warm,
