How many bagels feed ___ number of people?

Generally we feel the bagel ratio for adults should be about 10 bagels for 12 adults, provided you slice them and arrange them. We would hate to give you too much (unless you don’t mind), and we would hate to short you.

We usually figure one pound of lox will feed 12 to 15 people, unless you are very familiar with the tastes of your group (ie, vegans, family members)

I ordered ___ bagels, how much cream cheese will I need?
-------------------------

We recommend 1 pound of cream cheese per dozen bagels.

We've got plenty of bagel and sandwich fixings. Add on tomato, arugula, red onion, capers, butter, mustard, mayo and more for an upcharge.

All bagel flavors are vegan EXCEPT the egg, egg everything, honey whole wheat, honey whole wheat everything, and asiago.
