1 R&R Bagels
Incredibly popular with lunch-goers looking for an efficient meal, R&R Bagels is one of Hong Kong’s most successful bagel stories. Sited on one of Central’s narrow market alleyways of stall vendors, it may not be the easiest shop to find, but it’s well worth the hunt.
Offering the largest selection of bagels amongst its competitors, sink your teeth into a range of options, from Wholegrain, Cinnamon Raisin, and Onion, to staples like Plain, Sesame, Poppy, and Everything. But the real draw at R&R is their stacked bagel sandwiches. You’ll want to try the more eclectic flavours here, like the Gardener’s Breakfast ($65), topped with a fresh spinach omelette, melted cheddar cheese, ripe tomatoes, pesto, and low-fat cream cheese, and the Hampton ($85), with chicken breast, pesto, camembert cheese, walnuts, sun-dried cranberries, arugula, toasted peppercorns, and cream cheese.
Of course, standard choices like Smoked Salmon Bagel ($85) and Avocado Feta Bagel ($75) are up for grabs, as well as the Vegan Bagel ($75), which comes with a filling of house hummus, smashed avo, arugula, coconut amino sauce, shaved almonds, and chia seeds. And if nothing on the menu catches your fancy (we find that hard to believe), then throw all caution to the wind and go for the build-your-own option. Honestly, just settling with one bagel at R&R is a constant struggle. If the goal is to indulge at home, R&R Bagels is also available for takeaway and delivery on Deliveroo.
