Fast-Growing Pop-Up Bagels Brand Expands to West Palm Beach
Popup Bagels, the rapidly expanding bagel concept known for its tightly focused menu and high-volume service model, opened a new location in West Palm Beach. The new shop, located in the CityPlace West Palm development, officially opened this weekend, marking the brand’s continued expansion beyond its Northeast roots.
Founded in Connecticut, Popup Bagels built its reputation through limited-hour bagel drops that emphasized freshness and simplicity. The brand’s core model focuses on serving hot bagels in batches, often selling out quickly, with a streamlined ordering process designed for speed and efficiency. Rather than offering extensive sandwich menus, Popup Bagels prioritizes the bagels themselves and a short list of cream cheese options.
The West Palm Beach opening represents a strategic move into South Florida, a region with significant demand for high-quality kosher-certified bagels and bakery products.
Focused Menu Built Around Fresh Bagels and Signature Cream Cheeses
Popup Bagels is known for its concise menu that centers on freshly baked bagels served hot throughout limited service windows. Standard bagel varieties typically include:
- Plain
- Salt
- Sesame
- Poppy
- Everything
The brand emphasizes serving bagels as fresh as possible, often encouraging customers to purchase bagels in groups rather than individually.
In addition to the bagels themselves, the West Palm Beach location will offer kosher-certified cream cheese options, including plain and scallion varieties only. NOTE: Other cream cheese flavors are not kosher certified at this time.
From Connecticut Startup to Multi-State Expansion
Popup Bagels began as a small operation in Connecticut and quickly gained attention for its unconventional service model and strong social media presence. The brand expanded into New York City and other Northeast markets, where it developed a following among customers seeking traditional kettle-boiled bagels with a simplified ordering experience.
The expansion into West Palm Beach marks one of the brand’s first major moves into Florida. CityPlace West Palm, a redeveloped mixed-use district featuring retail, dining, and residential spaces, provides a high-visibility location for the concept.
The company continues to grow by opening storefront locations that maintain the same limited menu and high-volume production approach that defined its original pop-up format.
Kosher Certification and Location Details
The bagels, plain cream cheese, and scallion cream cheese at the West Palm Beach location is certified kosher by Kosher supervision provided by NKS (National Kosher Supervision).
Popup Bagels is located at 632 Hibiscus Street, West Palm Beach, FL 33401, within the CityPlace West Palm development.
