Bayit — Restaurant in Great Britain

Brighton was in dire need of a bagel shop of this calibre so it’s great to see one open up in this top open market location.

I went with the salmon and schmear, and I was then given options for types of salmon, going with a flakier “pastrami” style, and type of schmear, which was herbier and more vibrant flavour than I expected.

My companions went with the vegan option which they both said was great although if you don’t like beetroot, you’re out of luck. I’d love to see more vegan options going forward.

It’s clearly a family run place too which I love (one of the owner’s mums was in the back rolling bagels herself). I think a part of this style of place, there may have been few teething issues logistically. The bagels took about 15 mins to make for instance, no biggy but something to...

At £11.50, it was a little high priced, making it a ‘every so often’ treat opposed to a cheeky lunch to grab and go. All in all, fab...

I thoroughly enjoyed mine at home toasted with cream cheese, pepper and cornichons 😋 My husband had his with cream cheese, black pepper, cornichons and pastrami. My daughter went for avocado and mature cheddar cheese 😋 They are selling like hot cakes, so do be prepared to queue or return the next day due to selling out. Looking forward to making this a regular treat. The owners girlfriend is just...
