According to a recent article from the Seattle Eater, Andrew Rubinstein will open a new concept called Hey Bagel in University Village.
A representative of Hey Bagel was not immediately available for commentary upon What Now Seattle’s request.
While an official address for Hey Bagel has yet to be released, according to the Seattle Eater article and Hey Bagel’s Instagram, Hey Bagel will open in the fall of this year.
“At the new Hey Bagel, it’ll be all about the bagels and shmears. “I’ll have a cream cheese bar. Think like an ice cream counter. A glass case showing off a bunch of standards, but also some fun and surprising flavors,” he says. He also plans to sell bialys — a rarity in Seattle — and partner with Anchorhead Coffee for drinks.”
According to Hey Bagel’s website, “After so many years, and hundreds of thousands of bagels later, I’m back where it began, slaving away in my kitchen, going through rounds of trial and error. I’m on the hunt for a wickedly twisted variation of my past creations.”
“As I’ve grown, I’ve tasted all sorts of bagels, chowed down on loaves of different breads, and had some kickass experiences. Now, I want to blend all that together into one epic concept, HEY BAGEL, a new bagel adventure in Seattle’s ever-expanding bagel scene.”
“In my opinion, nothing beats sinking your teeth into a piping hot, fresh-out-of-the-oven bagel, am I right? Personally, I’m all about those little blisters, the slightly burned spots, and even the misshapen misfits.”
“Now, I can’t promise you a fresh-out-of-the-oven bagel every single time—that’d be pushing it. But what I can do is consistently deliver warm and toasty bagels, still giving off that irresistible oven vibe, within an hour of baking.”
“I want to whip up your online order just for you, just in time. It’s totally doable, my friends. You won’t make it where you’re going with a fresh bag of bagels without eating at least one on the way.”
