    I have been to cooking classes around the world and this bagel class did not disappoint. Book it. You'll get to roll bagels from dough, boil, dip and bake....all while enjoying your favorite beverage amongst a few fast made friends. Hearing the history just added to the great experience.

    10/10 experience. You make bagels, you eat bagels, and you take home bagels. What's not to like? Great experience that is really hard to improve just based on getting things done on a timely basis (making bagels takes time!) - But it is worth it because you get a brief fun history of bagels and bagel facts, see how an actual bagel shop runs in their day to day operations and be involved in all processes. Without spoiling it but giving some overview - you will be rolling and shaping your bagels, followed by cooking them while also learning what truly makes NYC bagels so unique. Highly recommend this event to anyone who is remotely into food, or wants a truly New York experience because bagels are so integral to NYC culture that Starship may as well do a song named "We built this city on bagels."

    What to expect

    Step into a New York City bagel shop for a hands-on baking experience at the heart of the city's bagel culture. Your experience begins with a warm welcome and casual icebreaker, then an award-winning baker guides you through the classic rope-and-loop rolling technique—a skill you'll quickly put to use as you roll at least six bagels from scratch. Next, you'll watch a dough-making demonstration revealing the building blocks of every great bagel, then learn how boiling and seeding give the New York bagel its iconic texture and taste—doing each step yourself with your instructor's guidance. Between dough stages, you'll go behind the scenes of a bagel shop producing around 10,000 bagels a day—seeing commercial bagel-making up close while your instructor walks you through the bagel's history, from its Polish origins to the rise of the Bagel Bakers' Union and the modern New York bagel era. The experience wraps with a group tasting of your freshly baked bagels alongside gourmet spreads, smoked fish, and classic accompaniments—plus a light-hearted bagel trivia quiz to cap things off. You'll head home with at least 6 bagels, the recipe, and everything you need to make them again.
