Every Saturday and Sunday, Cliff Bagels pops up with that NYC-bagel energy in Oak Cliff: think hand-rolling, kettle boiling, and fresh baking starting before dawn.

Deli News
This old-school deli is a quintessential Dallas spot for comfort food, stacked sandwiches, and bagels! The bagel selection keeps it classic flavor-wise, but their homemade lox spread is anything but boring. Pair your bagel with a selection of smoked fish, potato pancakes, or corned beef hash. We recommend going early as they tend to run out quickly!
