Now it\u2019s official.<\/p>\n<p>PopUp Bagels will be opening on <strong>Friday, April 24, at 5450 W. Lovers Lane<\/strong>. This may be the first shop to open in Texas, but 12 more stores are on the horizon across Houston, Austin and San Antonio.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Dallas takes bragging rights, though.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>There are plenty of <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dallasobserver.com\/food-drink\/best-bagels-dallas-texas-20806068\/\">great bagels in Dallas<\/a>. What\u2019s the hubbub with <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.popupbagels.com\/\">PopUp Bagels<\/a>, and why is it one of the most talked-about bagel shops from coast to coast?<\/p>\n<p>Adam Goldberg, from Westport, Connecticut, started selling bagels from his backyard pick-up window in 2020 with the goal of making fresh, superior bagels. His recipe was clearly a winner as his bagels won <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bagelfest.com\/\">Brooklyn\u2019s Bagel Fest<\/a> two years in a row (2021 and 2022). This is the same competition that Dallas\u2019 own <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.starshipbagel.com\/\">Starship Bagel<\/a> won in 2023 and 2025.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Even fussy New Yorkers enjoy PopUp Bagels.\u00a0Since opening, the brand has attracted A-listers as investors, including Paul Rudd, Michael Phelps, Patrick Schwarzenegger and Michael Strahan. <\/p>\n<p>The modern bagel shop keeps it simple by selling only five different bagel flavors (plain, everything, poppyseed, sesame and salt), two core schmears (plain and scallion), salted butter and two schmears that rotate weekly. This week, the featured rotating schmears are cake batter cream cheese and vanilla berry butter.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>All bagels are sold by the bag in 3, 6, 9, 12 or 30 bagels with the appropriate amount of schmear. The PopUp Bagel trademarked slogan is to Grip, Rip and Dip\u00ae. You need a bag of bagels to get in on that.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A little party tip: they don\u2019t slice bagels, toast them, make sandwiches or sell singles. <\/p>\n<p>Apart from the bagels being so craveable, the shop also does limited-edition collaborations, like <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DWmp2GcEnkt\/\">a trout roe and caviar combo<\/a>, that bring people in droves.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>X WingStop<\/p>\n<p>For the Dallas opening, PopUp Bagels is bringing back its partnership with WingStop to serve the lemon pepper schmear for one day only. Wingstop will also be serving everything bagel tenders and cream cheese ranch for the grand opening.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In the past, we\u2019ve seen pimento cream cheese schmear, brown sugar cinnamon butter and they even partnered with Guinness to celebrate St. Patrick\u2019s Day with a chocolate stout cake schmear. Limited edition flavors rotate every week on Thursday, so you\u2019ve got to get \u2019em while they\u2019re hot.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>All the new schmear flavors are teased and announced on the <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/popupbagels\/\">PopUp Bagels Instagram page<\/a>. If the bagels are as good as everyone claims they are, we\u2019ll take the 30-bagel bag and all five schmears, please.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>PopUp Bagels 5450 W. Lovers Lane.
