Where to find the best bagels in San Diego

• Visit P.L. Bagels in Point Loma and your hunt for the best bagels in SD is over, according to Susan M., who lived in New York City.
• Marigold Bagels. Chris S., who grew up in Queens and Long Island, said the stall at Civita Farmers Market in Mission Valley, open every Saturday, sells out quickly.
• Inglourious Bagels in Carlsbad makes the best in North County, Jessica H. says.
• Solomon Bagel Company in North Park is high quality but inconsistent, so it's good in a pinch, per Jackie B. Plus, try the vegan Jewish deli Ben and Esther's near SDSU.
• Nomad Donuts and Spill the Beans also come recommended.

The best suggestion: Have your East Coast friends freeze and send them.

💭 My thought bubble: The Lox Deluxe bagel at Scrimshaw Coffee in El Cerrito made me go back for another a week later.

• Communal Coffee also makes a delicious smoked salmon bagel sandwich.
• And I love the lavender lattes at both coffee shops.
