Bagel Store

Part of Kismet Bagels

If you happen to come across a bagel shop in Philly with a line out the door, it’s most likely Kismet Bagels. Founded as a pandemic passion project by the husband-and-wife duo of Jacob and Alexandra Cohen after their jobs in sales and entertainment were put on hold, Kismet has since become Philadelphia’s most cult-followed bagel shop, selling more than 15,000 bagels every week from three brick-and-mortar shops and several farmers market stands.

These bagels are the real deal: the recipe was developed over months of trial-and-error, and they’re kettle-boiled, smothered with seasonings, soft on the inside, and just the right balance of chewy and crunchy on the outside. These are the bagels that Philadelphians have gone crazy for, and now they’re shipping nationwide!
