ARLINGTON, VA — A popular bagel chain known for hot bagels and creative cream cheese spreads will soon open its first Virginia location in Arlington.
PopUp Bagels plans to open at 4300 Wilson Blvd. in Ballston, marking the brand's first expansion into Virginia.
The company will celebrate with a grand opening event from 7-11 a.m. on Nov. 6, featuring hot bagels, special surprises, and a limited-time cream cheese spread created exclusively for the Arlington location.
The cafe salted caramel cider doughnut schmear is a collaboration with Good Company Doughnuts, a Northern Virginia bakery known for its handmade doughnuts.
The special flavor will be available for a limited time, although the company has not said how long it will remain on the menu.
PopUp Bagels has built a following for its simple approach to the breakfast staple, emphasizing fresh, hot bagels served with a selection of flavored cream cheese spreads, or schmears.
The brand uses the slogan "Not Famous, but Known" and has expanded throughout the Washington, D.C., region.
The Arlington opening continues that growth, bringing the chain's bagels to Virginia customers for the first time.
The company has not yet released details on the new location's regular operating hours.
