Zucker’s Bagels Is Expanding Its Empire And Opening Its Biggest Location Yet
Graphic by Angelie Zaslavsky
There’s nothing stopping Zucker’s from taking over New York City, the Bagel Capital of America.
According to a report by the New York Post, Zucker’s Bagels & Smoked Fish is opening a flagship in Flatiron, which will be Zucker’s fourth and largest eatery.
The eatery, which is 1,800-square-feet, will be located at 40 East 23rd street.
Zucker’s Bagels offers hand-rolled, kettle-boiled bagels that can be paired with the Acme Smoked Fish available on-site, and topped with classic shmear. But Zucker’s also offers some decidedly non-bagel options on the menu, including the instagram-favorite avocado toast.
The Zucker’s bagel empire includes its original location in TriBeCa, another one near Grand Central Station (the location is currently undergoing construction to build a 2,000-square-foot commissary kitchen) and a recently-opened spot on the Upper West Side which features an outdoor seating.

But while the Forward is free to read, it isn’t free to produce. Big stories — like deep dives into the antisemitism data, political scoops or reporting trips to college campuses — take months of research and fact-checking. All while we keep you informed of what you need to know each day.
