| - I fell in love with their bagels when I discovered them in the freezer section of a Chicagoland grocery store. Even frozen, their bagels are lovely. So, on a recent trip to Madison, I made sure to make a stop at the store attached to the Bagels Forever factory. It was worth the trip through campustown construction. BF makes the best bagels outside of New York - delightfully chewy and delectably delicious.
The bagels were still warm at 7:00 on Friday morning. The cranberry oat (my favorite from the freezer case) was even better when it was fresh, and we also got to try their jalapeno-cornmeal and chocolate chip bagels. All outstanding. We got a lox sandwich, which was fantastic and awfully attractively presented, especially considering the no-frills deli counter style of the place. For the price, it is a huge serving of very tasty salmon. If you just want a little bit of lox, get the salmon cream cheese instead. But don't really do that, because the big slice of lox is just so delicious.
Our bagels were so terrific that we came back on our way out of town to bring home a ton of their bagels. 4 days later, they are almost gone, but they are still tasting fresh and delicious. I haven't even had to toast them. Love them!
