Who needs a bae when you've got bagels? Yes, you heard me -- freakin' bagels. Bagels are a breakfast staple. Well, basically anything that involves bread or any sort of carb is life. Whether it be plain, smothered in cream cheese, or topped with egg whites, spinach, and feta cheese (my personal fave) everyone needs a little #baegoal in their lives. Here are the top 6 places in State College to fulfill your #baegoal needs:

1. Irving's

Irving's is one of my top choices for bagels because you can come here for breakfast, lunch, dinner or anywhere in between. They also have a pizza bagel so if you're in the mood for pizza, but don't want a whole one to yourself the pizza bagel usually suffices. You also can't beat the price... everything bagel for $1? Count me in.

2. Bagel Crust

Two words: rainbow bagel. The inner kid in me loves going to Bagel Crust just to get the tie-dye rainbow bagel. Totally gross when you think of all the food coloring, but totally adorable. You're lying if the rainbow bagel doesn't bring a smile to your face.

3. Sadie's Waffles

Ugh, Sadie's. I feel like Sadie's is a totally underrated breakfast place in State College. Maybe the name makes it hard to compete with The Waffle Shop, but Sadie's bagel sandwiches are literally AMAZE. Maybe its all the butter they put on the bagel, or maybe it's just the toppings. Whatever it is, Sadie's Waffles is a definite go to for any bagel connoisseur in State College.

4. Panera

Panera is a classic. I love Panera's bagels because, well for one, I always get an email where I get a free bagel every day for a month... UM?? YES PLEASE. Other than that Panera's bagels are just fresh AF. I recommend the cinnamon crunch.

5. The Naked Egg Cafe

The Naked Egg is another one of those hidden gems of State College. It's a little further out on West College Ave., but definitely worth the drive. They don't have much to chose from, but the cute little atmosphere makes it worth the trek for a bagel.

6. Dunkin' Donuts

Another classic: D & D. Dunkin' is my go to when I'm in a hurry. At Dunkin', I typically get a plain bagel with cream cheese. But recently I tried the garden veggie cream cheese and multigrain bagel and it was delicious. Plus it made me feel as though I was being a little bit healthier than normal.
