Absolute Bagels, a celebrated Upper West Side bagel shop, was famously known for its hand-rolled, kettle-boiled creations but has now tragically closed its doors, leaving fans heartbroken.
Founded in the early 1990s by Thai immigrant Samak Thongkrieng, Absolute Bagels thrived despite having no social media presence or delivery service, demonstrating its authentic charm.
Lines of eager customers stretched down the block on weekends, a testament to Absolute's status as one of New York's most beloved bagel spots prior to its closure.
