The story

A mid-priced American restaurant on the Lower East Side. Known for its classic bagel with nova and cream cheese.

Russ & Daughters Cafe is a full-service American restaurant in the Lower East Side that serves breakfast, brunch and lunch. The cafe offers Jewish comfort food, including lox, bagels, smoked salmon and latkes, and it sits beside the appetizing shop that has been run by the same family since the early twentieth century.

Insider tip
Come for brunch but expect a wait on weekends. The chocolate babka French toast is legendary. If you just want a quick bagel and lox, the original shop is around the corner on Houston Street with no wait.
