Finding the best bagels in Montana can be tough. Not only because people have different passions for what is an "authentic" bagel, but because there really are various origins and versions of this classic, carb-loaded favorite. Bagels are a worldly thing, not just a New York thing.

  • The Sourdough Bagel in Billings: (219 N 29th Street, Billings) A small, but much loved bagel/coffee spot. "Traditionally handcrafted, slow-fermented bagels made in beautiful Yellowstone County, Montana." Yelp reviews are almost entirely 5 stars, and they often sell out. The Sourdough Bagel on Facebook.
  • "Skip your stupide "free" hotel breakfast and come here instead!"
  • "This is a great takeaway spot downtown. I just ordered some bagels to go, but they have a delish-looking bagel sandwich menu--including the likes of a ham and fig, lox, avocado toast, and a regular bacon and cheese."
