Voting Opens for Queens Chamber of Commerce Inaugural Queens' Best Bagel Competition

The Queens Chamber of Commerce, the oldest and largest business association in the borough, is now accepting votes for its Queens’ Best Bagel Competition. Members of the public are encouraged to vote for their favorite eatery from among 55 nominated establishments to settle the debate over who in Queens serves up the best bagel.
 
“Bagels are a staple in New York City, and Queens consistently serves up some of the best out there,”  said Tom Grech, President and CEO of the Queens Chamber of Commerce. “Whether you like them with butter or a smear of cream cheese and lox, the doughy delights are well-loved by our diverse Queens community and I look forward to visiting the winning establishment next month.”
 
The public can vote for their favorite restaurant at https://bit.ly/QueensBestBagelVote through Wednesday, February 7. The winner will be crowned with the title of Queens’ Best Bagel on Friday, February 9, in honor of National Bagel and Lox Day, and receive a plaque and bragging rights, along with a complimentary membership to the Queens Chamber of Commerce. The second and third place winners will receive certificates.
