Smoked Salmon Bagel Bar
How to set up the most perfect (yet easiest!) bagel bar! Perfect for brunches and get-togethers! Everyone will be so impressed!
Say hello to this beauty.
A breakfast bar full of fresh bagels, cream cheese and all the smoked salmon you could possibly want!
No cooking required. No cooking skills required either.
It’s a win-win for all – guest and hosts included.
Just a few tips.
Fresh bagels are absolutely a must! Grab them the morning you serve this beautiful platter. Mini bagels are also a super cute option.
Assorted cream cheese is completely optional, but if you can find a chive-type cream cheese, I highly recommend that!
To serve, a wooden cheese board would make for a great presentation. But if you don’t have one handy, a full size sheet pan will also do the trick!

I smoke my own salmon. Never thought of doing the onions thinly sliced instead of diced. The addition of the tomatoes and cucumber will be a nice touch. It will be tomorrow’s breakfast and I’ll definitely make this to serve with cocktails at our next dinner club.
AWESOME!!! Smoked Salmon and mini bagels with garnishes were YUMMY. A family favorite and makes for a perfect breakfast/brunch.
I just love this! My husband and I are such fans of smoked salmon and I’m always looking for a nice, easy way to serve it at a brunch or get together! So pretty!
Love the idea of this presentation – I serve this type of brunch all the time – but worry that the bagels will get soggy in such close proximity to the cucumbers and tomatoes.
You can rearrange it to your needs of course!
Yummy! It looks so good! Love the mix plate!
My dad would totally be all over this! I’ll have to make it for dinner the next time he comes into town!
