Authentic New York bagels worth the drive from Gainesville
Gainesville is about 40-50 minutes from BB's Bagels — a true destination drive worth making. We hand-roll and kettle-boil every bagel using traditional New York methods most modern shops have abandoned. No machines, no shortcuts, no frozen dough — just real bagels baked fresh every morning since 2007.
Whether you're picking up a dozen for the family, grabbing a breakfast sandwich on the way to work, or organizing a catering tray for the office, BB's is worth the trip from Gainesville. We also cater bagel platters, breakfast wraps, lunch sandwich trays, focaccia, and dessert trays throughout the broader North Atlanta area.
Every single bagel at BB's is made the traditional New York way—hand-rolled and kettle-boiled before baking. No shortcuts, no machines, no freezing. We bake fresh every morning, and our bagels are noticeably larger, chewier, and more flavorful than anything you'll find at chain shops.
