Bagel on Fire

Bagel on Fire has been setting the Grays food scene ablaze with its bold American take on classic comfort food. Tucked away in this Essex town, this independent spot has earned a loyal following thanks to its generous portions and creative bagel combinations that go far beyond your standard deli fare. With a spotless Food Hygiene Rating, they’ve clearly mastered the art of serving up indulgence without cutting corners on quality.

Think towering stacks of slow-cooked brisket, sticky pulled pork, and crispy fried chicken, all stuffed into fresh, toasted bagels and finished with house-made sauces that pack serious flavour. The menu leans into proper American smokehouse territory, with smoky, saucy meats that demand to be eaten with both hands. Whether you’re craving a loaded brunch-style bagel or a hefty late-night fix, this place delivers. Order direct from their website for collection or delivery across Grays and the surrounding area.
