The Best BEC’s to Begin Your Day

We have given you the best places for coffee, but as we are entering spring, a new chapter awaits. What can be better than a good old bacon, egg, and cheese to go along with the best coffee in Morristown? The perfect bacon, egg, and cheese consists of a precisely cooked egg, fully melted cheese, crispy bacon, and a delicious bagel that balances a soft interior with a hard exterior. Luckily, we have found just the right spot that meets those criteria right here in town. We went to three different local spots and found the best place for you to start your morning the right way. 

South Street Creamery on South Street is a Morristown staple. Although quiet, our order came incorrect and took at least 20 minutes, even though we were the only people there. Once our order came, they forgot to give us, arguably the most important part, the bacon! However, they made up for it with their panini-pressed bagel and friendly service. Overall, considering it was not a true bacon, egg, and cheese, we rate it a 6.5/10. 

Across the street, we headed over to Swiss Chalet Bakery on South Street. When we initially ordered, we were greeted with a slight attitude. Although the staff is usually welcoming, this time, we felt rushed. Otherwise, the atmosphere was friendly, filled with chatter and laughs, so we were able to enjoy our meal. For some, the busy aspect does not always make for the best place to get some work done. However, a plus about Swiss Chalet is they do offer various delicious gluten-free options, which are typically hard to find. The sandwich itself was good despite the bagel being cold. The perfectly cooked eggs, along with perfectly gooey melted cheese and crispy bacon, helped boost its rating, as did the side of tasty potatoes. We rate Swiss Chalet Bakery’s bacon, egg, and cheese an 8/10. 

The third and best place to get bacon, egg, and cheese was Morristown Bagel and Deli on Main Street. This bagel store is relatively busy and small, so we decided that dining in wouldn’t be the best option. This sandwich is a classic deli-style bacon, egg, and cheese made with the quintessential fried eggs and bacon. The egg was the ideal mix between runny and cooked, and the bacon was wonderfully crisp and crunchy. The main difference that separated this sandwich from the rest was the bagel itself. This bagel was fluffy and soft with the perfect crunch, giving it the gold medal. We have rated this delicious sandwich a perfect 10. Go get your bacon, egg, and cheese today!
