"Bagelfeld's in Phoenix and Dallas: Among America's Best Bagels Outside of NYC"

Bagelfeld's, a Phoenix-based bagel shop, has been recognized by Bon Appetit as one of the best bagel bakeries in the US outside of New York. Owner Charles Blonkenfeld, a former caterer, developed a New York-inspired bagel that is crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside, adjusting the fermentation process to account for Phoenix's high temperatures. The shop offers a variety of classic and specialty bagels, along with a range of spreads. Bagelfeld's has gained a loyal following and supplies its bagels to local restaurants and cafes.
