ABOUT US It’s Bagels serves authentic NY style bagels in London. We opened our first store in Primrose Hill in September 2023 to weekend lines around the block and completely disrupted the London food scene. At the heart of It’s Bagels is its community. Bagel culture in NYC celebrates the coming together of people from all walks of life to share hot, fresh bagels every day. This is something we’ve brought across the pond and we look to focus on our diverse and incredible customers. Following the success of the first store, we recently opened in Soho and Notting Hill. All stores are incredibly popular and we look to bring warm, passionate and driven people into our growing team. We are currently looking to open more stores and expand our offering throughout London.
