SPOT Bagel Brings Bagel Nirvana To San Francisco Bay Area

San Francisco, CA – SPOT Bagel is thrilled to announce the launch of its artisan, organic bagel bakery. SPOT's artisanal eight-step baking process and commitment to organic and local ingredients mean that San Franciscans' wishes for great bagels have been fulfilled. SPOT bagels are now available fresh every morning throughout San Francisco, Berkeley, and Burlingame in gourmet grocery stores, restaurants, cafés, corporate cafeterias, and via caterers.

“SPOT bagels are simply the kind of food we all want to eat; local and organic ingredients à la Alice Waters, prepared thoughtfully à la slow food, and with innovative flavors à la Humphry Slocombe,” says SPOT Bagel founder Jay Glass, who named the bakery in honor of his beloved dalmatians.

Bi-Rite Market Co-founder and San Francisco Tastemaker Raph Mogannam calls SPOT bagels “the best bagels I have ever tried, by far. They have a crust unlike any other and the chewy texture in the middle is absolutely perfect; the flavors are profound, truly a knockout.”
