New-school Mission bagel shop baking throughout the day, with dense, New York–leaning rounds and loaded sandwiches. Founded by Brooklyn-raised Rich D’Aloia in 2025, it’s become a quick-stop favorite for lox, chopped-cheese riffs, and Calabrian chile schmears.

What to order: Everything lox, calabrian chile schmear, pizza bagel
Insider tip: Ask which bagels just came out—turnover is frequent and worth the wait.
Logistics & Planning
Parking: Street parking in the Mission can be tricky; metered spots nearby fill quickly on weekends. No dedicated lot or valet.
Dress code: Casual—come as you are; jeans, hoodies, and weekend wear are the norm.
Noise level: Low to moderate—counter-style service with light chatter, easy to hold a conversation.
Weekend wait: Not applicable—shop closes before dinner hours.
Weekday lunch: 5–10 minute wait during peak noon rush; often no wait midafternoon.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes—multiple bagel sandwiches with cream cheese, egg, and veggie toppings.
Vegan options: Limited—plain or everything bagels with vegan schmear if available; most loaded sandwiches use dairy.
Gluten-free options: No dedicated gluten-free bagels; wheat-based only.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Better for a casual coffee-and-bagel meetup than a sit-down date—ideal if you want something low-pressure and quick.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes—counter-service only, no reservations; grab-and-go is common and seating is limited.
Is it kid-friendly? Yes—kids will enjoy the bagels and pizza bagel option, though there’s no dedicated children’s menu or play area.
Best For
Better for: Fresh-from-the-oven bagels with creative schmears and sandwiches, served hot throughout the day.
Skip if: You need gluten-free options or full-service sit-down dining.
