West End's NYC Bagel Deli Is Moving to Bigger, Better, More Bagely Vulture Street Digs

With more space, you'll be able to see how they make their bagels before you sit down to eat them.

It has been less than a year since NYC Bagel Deli opened their permanent West End store, but you just can't stop the bready wheels of bagel progress (and nor should you want to). Thanks to Brisbane's love of the circular snack, they're packing up and moving on — literally just down the road, and to a place where you can watch them make their tasty namesake.

From April 8, 57 Vulture Street will replace 47 Vulture Street as NYC Bagel Deli's West End digs. Luckily, because the two addresses are so close together, you won't have to go far if you get them mixed up. The new spot is four times bigger than their existing one, which means that they can pump out more bagels as part of a new bakery-bagelry cafe setup. And, on opening day, they'll be handing out free coffee from 6.30am to 2.30pm.

As well as choosing between 12 different types of bagels fresh out of the oven — including garlic, cinnamon raisin, jalapeño, sunflower rye, onion, blueberry and the rainbow varieties — customers will also be able to see just how a heap of flour, yeast, salt, sugar and poppy seeds gets turned into their favourite bread snack. That includes watching staff knead and hand-roll bagels, retire them overnight, and boil and bake them into the bready goods you know and love. No guarantees they'll divulge their secret ingredient though — you'll have to guess that one.

Expect an expanded range of fillings as well as all of the old favourites, ranging from peanut butter and Nutella (together at last!) to 12-hour pulled pork. For salty go the grilled haloumi, for sweet go the espresso butter with cream cheese, poached pear and berry compote, or for a mix of both, choose the Elvis-inspired combo of bacon, banana, cream cheese and peanut butter. Cleanskin coffee and thickshakes in chocolate, banana, lemon meringue and — you guessed it — peanut butter again are also on the menu.

Find the new NYC Bagel Deli at 57 Vulture Street, West End from April 8. Head to their website and Facebook page for further info.
