The Best Breakfast Sandwiches In NYC

Edith’s Sandwich Counter generally excels in the breakfast sandwich department thanks to their malawach bread. With a texture that lands somewhere between the flakiness of a roti and the fluffy spring of a pita, the Yemeni flatbread holds together cheesy eggs in a way only a pro could. Our favorite iteration is the Sephardi Breakfast Wrap with melty Cooper Sharp cheese, housemade alheira chicken sausage that’s strong with cumin, pickled fresno peppers, and harissa mayo. It’s worth going out of your way to try, whether that’s to Edith’s original location in Williamsburg or the larger West Village spot.
