BALA CYNWYD, PA — Bart's Bagels is bringing its handcrafted bagels and breakfast sandwiches to the Main Line later this month with the opening of a new shop in Bala Cynwyd.
The new location will be the Philadelphia-based company's third, joining its original shop in West Philadelphia and a second location in South Philadelphia that opened in 2024. The expansion marks a homecoming for founders Brett and Kyle Frankel, who grew up in Bala Cynwyd.
Founded in 2020, Bart's Bagels has built a following by sticking to traditional bagel-making techniques. The brothers' bagels are kettle-boiled, slowly cold-fermented and baked on burlap boards in a revolving oven, creating a chewy interior and crisp, golden-brown crust with seeds on both sides.
Additionally, Bart's is known for breakfast sandwiches, premium smoked fish, house-whipped cream cheeses and house-smoked meats. The shop also offers pickup, delivery and catering.
Bart's expects to open the Bala Cynwyd shop during the last week of July at 273 Montgomery Ave.
