Our Story

Bagelsmith was built on the belief that great food starts with great care. After 35 years in the restaurant industry, our owner decided to open a bagel store rooted in old-school craft and community. Every bagel is hand-rolled and baked from scratch daily.

We hope to create a welcoming space for all, giving back to our community and honoring first responders with special discounts, our way of saying "thank you". From the first batch of the morning to the last sandwich, everything is made with heart. That's the Bagelsmith way.

The Open Door Approach

Our Door is Always Open At Bagelsmith. We believe no one in our community should go hungry. If you're going through a hard time and can't afford a meal today, please just let us know and your breakfast is on us, no questions asked.

Want to join our efforts? Our Pay It Forward program allows you to prepay for a meal to be held for someone in need. It's our community's way of making sure there is always a seat at the table (and a bagel on the plate) for everyone, regardless of their circumstances. Just tell us you want to buy a Neighbor's Bagel and we'll do the rest!
