Called a “MUST VISIT ASAP”, Ovenbird Bakery has fare so good there is a line of hungry patrons down the street before the bakery even opens! As far as bagels go, Ovenbird offers varieties such as sesame, poppy seed, spicy fennel and more. There are also plenty of other must-try treats and artisanal breads on the menu including the blueberry and lemon scone which one Yelper calls “lifechanging”.
