The Granola Bar

Pop’s Espresso Bar
7 Huguenot St, New Rochelle; 914.278.9533
Open for breakfast and lunch, Pop’s Espresso Bar in New Rochelle is small but packs big flavor. The Pop’s avocado toast combines a little heat from chili powder, nuttiness from pepitas, tang from pickled onions and lemon, and an extra creaminess from chévre to give the toast an earthy, Mediterranean vibe. If you wish, swap the multigrain bread for other options, such as English muffin, bagel, croissant, or gluten-free bread. And with the option to add a poached egg for only $1.50, the decision is easy and well worth it.
Southern Table
39 Marble Ave, Pleasantville; 914.618.3355
Southern Table Kitchen and Bar has your avocado toast desires covered, y’all. There’s an entire avocado toast menu — plus, each avocado toast has a gluten-free version, served on fried corn tortillas, or tostadas. Toasted sourdough lays the foundation for the five regular versions. Executive Chef Pasquale Abbatiello has two favorites. First, there’s the za’atar toast with marinated cukes, red onion, and radish, sprinkled generously with feta. “The vegetables are marinated in vinegar and za’atar, a Middle Eastern spice blend,” he says. Then, for contrast, he loves the bacon-and-eggs avo toast with crispy pork, eggs any style, and melty cheddar.
