Easton Avenue Delivers The Best Bagels Near Campus With O’Bagel

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at Rutgers chapter.

If you are a Rutgers student looking to level up your bagel game, look no further, as Easton Avenue’s very own O’Bagel saves the day. O’Bagel is an industrial-style restaurant with several in-house tables and a bustling but cozy atmosphere. With select locations all over New Jersey, this family-run joint will delightfully satisfy your carb cravings.

O’Bagel has a wide selection of breads, from deli rolls to jalapeño cheddar bagels. It has everything you could want, from a bagel store to a plain bagel with butter to a bacon-egg-and-cheese sandwich. As a bagel with cream cheese kind of girl, I vouch that both the restaurant’s standard cream cheese and its scallion cream cheese are up to the New Jersey standards (and it doesn’t skimp out on the cheese).

O’Bagel stands out from the rest of the competition with its lunch sandwiches. Its juicy pesto chicken sandwich is to die for, and its turkey club is a classic. These fresh and flavorful sandwiches are only $5 all day on Wednesdays, so make sure to schedule an O’Bagel trip into your calendar next week!

As someone without a car and who is in the market for good bagels around Rutgers’ campuses, I love the convenience of O’Bagel. Right in the middle of Easton Avenue, it’s an easy walk that anyone can take from College Avenue’s Yard bus stop. With delicious sandwiches and decent prices, it is an extremely accessible and affordable spot for Rutgers students to enjoy.

O’Bagel really is the place to be! I truly believe it could be your next go-to spot!
