Located in Star and Shamrock Bar on H Street in downtown Washington DC, Bullfrog Bagels entered the eternal competition for the best bagels in the country. Though, instead of competing with Montreal or New York City, the baker and owner Jeremiah Cohen came up with something new: a Washington DC bagel.

He claims that Washington water and air make the yeast for his bagels unique, but his baking skills probably have something to do with the success of his delicious, chewy bagels. Whatever the reason, people are waiting in line in this no-frills, no seating place to get their share of classics like bagels with smoked salmon and cream cheese, or the out of the ordinary bagel with poached eggs, corned beef hash, pastrami and more.
