Bakery · North York · $
The defining Gryfe's product — hand-rolled, honey-boiled, wood-fired, with a golden sesame crust that crackles and a dense chew that holds up to cream cheese without turning to mush
Bakery · York · $
The Montreal-style workhorse — hand-rolled, honey-water boiled, wood-fired until the sesame seeds toast into the crust; chewier and smaller than New York style with a faintly sweet note
Bakery · Old Toronto · $
Densely seeded, lightly sweet wood-fired ring with a chewy crumb and faintly charred crust — the purist's benchmark for this shop
Wood-fired Montreal-style ring with a tight crumb and sweet finish — best eaten warm with a plain schmear
Slightly sweet, hand-rolled bagel with a tight crumb and sesame crust — closer to the St-Viateur school than any New York derivative
The shop's workhorse — toasty sesame crust gives way to a chewy crumb, with a thick plain or herb schmear that doesn't overwhelm
The seeded variety toasted by the oven's direct heat, with sesame locked into the crust — the most popular format for a reason
