Star Bagel

Nashville


Pop into this welcoming bagel shop to fuel up for the day or to grab a picnic sandwich. It's jumping in the morning but still efficient. The breads and bagels are preservative-free, and the owner uses organic ingredients when possible. Order at the counter from the wide selection, which ranges from cranberry orange to spinach herb.
