Boar's Head Deli Counter

Hillsborough's Breakfast Spot

Real NJ bagels, hot off the boil since day one

The Hillsborough Classic

There's a reason folks drive in from across Somerset County before the sun's fully up.

Boiled, Then Baked

Every bagel is boiled before it hits the oven. That's what gives you the crispy crust and chewy pull a real Jersey bagel is supposed to have.

Full Boar's Head Deli

Oven-roasted turkey, deluxe baked ham, pastrami, genoa salami, oven-roasted beef — every hero built on Boar's Head. No shortcuts.

Open Early, Every Day

Doors open at 6:30 AM, seven days a week. Whether it's a weekday commute or a slow Sunday morning, we've got you.

Neighborhood Regulars

Run by Jimmy and his team — locals who know most of the names that walk through the door. That's the difference.

Every Hero Built on Boar's Head

From the Genoa Salami Italiano to the Deluxe Baked Ham Cuban, every deli sandwich at Bagel Bistro starts with premium Boar's Head meats and cheeses. Because a good hero deserves better than the generic stuff.

Google Review

"Standard weekend stop. Specialty cream cheeses slap — the jalapeño and the sun dried tomato basil are worth the trip alone."
