Russ & Daughters Brooklyn Introduce

Introduction / Overview

For nearly a century, the name

Russ & Daughters

has been synonymous with the very soul of classic New York appetizing. While its roots are firmly planted in the Lower East Side, the opening of its Brooklyn Navy Yard location brings the legendary “smoked fish and schmear” tradition to an entirely new borough, serving up the same commitment to quality that has made it a global icon. More than just a bagel shop, Russ & Daughters is a generational institution, a Jewish restaurant, and a full-service food manufacturer dedicated to the preservation and perfection of appetizing cuisine.

This Brooklyn outpost, located within the historic setting of the Navy Yard, acts as a pivotal hub for distribution, catering, and direct customer interaction. It is where New Yorkers can secure the finest hand-sliced smoked salmon, house-made salads, and specialty Jewish baked goods, all under one roof. Unlike many quick-service bagel spots, Russ & Daughters is known for its curated menu—focusing on quality ingredients like Gaspe Nova Smoked Salmon, Sable, and Sturgeon, which are expertly paired with their classic New York bagels and specialty spreads. For many New Yorkers, a trip to Russ & Daughters is a cultural experience as much as it is a culinary one, offering a delicious connection to the city's rich immigrant food history. It is the definitive source for anyone needing an authentic taste of the city’s past and present, whether they are planning a small weekend brunch or a major holiday gathering.

The variety of products offered here transcends the typical bagel joint, encompassing everything from pantry staples like Challah and Mandel Bread to luxurious items such as a wide range of Caviar & Roe, showcasing its status as a premier provider of high-end Jewish delicacies. This location ensures that the time-honored traditions of the Russ family are accessible to the rapidly growing communities of Brooklyn, cementing its place as an essential stop for bagels, lox, and all the essential fixings.

What is worth choosing

For any New Yorker seeking the absolute gold standard in appetizing, Russ & Daughters Brooklyn is the definitive choice. You choose this establishment not just for a bagel, but for an experience that honors a nearly century-old New York tradition. Unlike convenience stores that simply toast a pre-made bagel, Russ & Daughters is a master of its craft, a fact evident in its status as a bagel shop, bakery, and food manufacturer.

What is truly worth choosing here is the unparalleled quality of the Smoked & Cured Fish. Items like the rich Sable or the buttery Sturgeon are sliced by experts, offering a texture and flavor profile that cannot be replicated at standard delicatessens. Pair any of these with their fresh, chewy Bagels (or Gluten-Free Bagels), a generous smear of cream cheese, and a side of their famous Summer Borscht or Potato Latkes for a quintessential New York meal.

Moreover, for Brooklynites planning an event, the availability of specialized Rosh Hashanah & Yom Kippur Specialties and full Platters makes Russ & Daughters the trusted source for traditional Jewish holiday foods, simplifying your catering needs with guaranteed quality. The combination of easy In-store pickup within the accessible Brooklyn Navy Yard (complete with the rare offering of Free street parking), alongside the option for delivery, removes all barriers to accessing this historic, delicious cuisine. Choose Russ & Daughters when you demand more than a bagel—you demand history, quality, and the best that New York appetizing has to offer.

Please not that while do our best to remove the majority of bones, we make no guarantee that kippered salmon will be completely free of bones or cartilage.

  • Sable - 1/2 Lb $37.00

    Sable was once referred to as “poor man’s sturgeon,” but don’t let the old moniker fool you. With its melt-in-your-mouth flavor and buttery texture, sable is served in some of the best restaurants around the world. It is also classic appetizing. Line caught in Northern Pacific waters, this black cod is smoked to Russ family specifications and then dusted with a thin coat of paprika to lock in its natural moistness and round out the flavor. Please not that while do our best to remove the majority of bones, we make no guarantee that Sable will be completely free of bones or cartilage.

  • Sturgeon - 1/2 Lb $37.00

    This delicate white meat produces an absolutely unique flavor; it is clean and earthy, sweet and delicate all at the same time. It is no surprise that fish that gives us caviar would be just as sumptuous when smoked.

    Tuna is delicious raw, cooked and smoked. A newer addition to our specialty smoked fish collection, this tuna is delicious. These smaller slices with their lean texture will make unforgettable appetizers.

    These hot-smoked freshwater fish are so delicious and versatile. They’re perfect on their own or as the “wow” ingredient for salads and sandwiches. Please note, whole brook trout contain bones.

  • Smoked Whitefish

    A smoked whitefish is classic Russ & Daughters and an all-time favorite for many. Native to the Great Lakes, whitefish are hot smoked to perfection to give you a moist, dense, and smoky experience. Choose "Filleted" to have us take the bones out. Note that even filleted fish may contain bones.

  • Salt-Cured Belly Lox - 1/2 Lb (SALTY!) $27.00

    NOVICES BEWARE: THIS IS NOT SMOKED SALMON, IT IS VERY SALTY! For those who grew up on belly lox, nothing can compare.
