Breakfast in Ballantyne? We recommend what’s soon-to-be the perfect spot.
PopUp Bagels is expanding to Charlotte when it debuts at The Bowl at Ballantyne, serving fresh bagels paired with mouth-watering schmears.
Not another bagel spot
“It’s a really unique experience,” Tory Bartlett, CEO of PopUp Bagels, told CLTtoday. “It’s not a transaction where you just walk in, get a bagel, and walk out.”
Get ready to order always-hot, preservative-free bagels from the “bagel bouncers” in an upbeat atmosphere to help start the day on a positive note.
Viral bagels
PopUp Bagels started as a local favorite in Westport, CT, before becoming a viral sensation with spots across New York, Connecticut, and Massachusetts.
PopUp was even ranked as Yelp’s No. 1 Bagel in New York City earlier this year, with rave reviews on ABC’s “Good Morning America,” “The New York Times,” and The New York Post.”
A home in the South
“With so many northerners relocating to Charlotte, especially in the past few years, we saw an opportunity a bring a taste of their home to Charlotte,” said Cayla Stauffer, Marketing and Events Manager of Northwood Office.
