We didn’t knock wood enough, PopUp Bagels won’t be opening this Friday but looks like in April so not too much longer!

Last week we shared the, what was to be a bit, premature news from PopUp Bagels:

“We’re excited to announce that PopUp Bagels, the “Not Famous, but Known®” bagel shop, will open its first Washington D.C. store in Georgetown at 1078 Wisconsin Avenue NW on March 27. Please note, due to construction timelines, the confirmed opening dates can be slightly influx and could be subject to change.”

Alas, March 27th was indeed influx. I’m now told that date is no longer on track but an April opening is the goal and we’ll be given one week notice so as not to miss it. Just a little bit longer!

From an email:

“We’re excited to announce that PopUp Bagels, the “Not Famous, but Known®” bagel shop, will open its first Washington D.C. store in Georgetown at 1078 Wisconsin Avenue NW on March 27.

PopUp Bagels has quickly become one of the most talked-about new bagel shops, with recent openings from coast to coast in Atlanta, LA, Nashville, and beyond. We’re so excited to have a presence here in DC with the same HOT, whole bagels and rotating schmears made to Grip, Rip and Dip®. The Georgetown location is the first of 20 locations planned across Washington D.C., Maryland, and Virginia, yet to come. (more…)

ICYMI: December 11, 2025 BIG BAGEL NEWS: Andy’s (Pizza) Getting in on the Game!!

“PopUp Bagels started as a backyard pickup window to share a newly created bagel recipe with friends. It’s now grown to multiple popup and permanent locations for always-fresh weekend pickup.

Our goal is simple: to make you the best, freshest bagels. No frills, plainly perfect: crispy crust and soft crumb center, just the right size and with a perfect proportion of seeds.

We’ve won Brooklyn Bagelfest “Best Bagel” two years in a row and we can’t wait for you to try a dozen.” (more…)

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I feel comfortable opining about two foods and two foods only – Pizza and Bagels. And I guess the stars have aligned. Now I’m not gonna lose my mind until I try one but mark me as very optimistic about this development. If the bagels are anywhere as good as the pizza then fellow bagel lovers are in for some very good news indeed.

Bold move launching in Bethesda though…

Andy’s Pizza posted last night:

“We’re making lists and we’re checking them twice! We are officially launching Bagels @ Andy’s at our Bethesda location every dang day from 7am-10:59am. (more…)
