About NY Bagel Cafe & Deli

The Start

NY Bagel Cafe & Deli is the brainchild of Joe Smith, an enterprising upstate New Yorker who saw the opportunities back in 1994 for making inroads in the franchise fast-food market.
Take a proven commodity – everyone’s favorite “light” meal, the bagel – and then take it one step further. Offer the original New York bagel, and create a cornerstone for a bagel franchise … without the typical franchise bagel taste.
Then structure the business for ease of investment and operation, and “spread the wealth” with other motivated self-starters … like you, perhaps?
"NY Bagel Cafe & Deli is an easy and workable system that's simple to learn and easy to train for. And because the bagels are delivered to the store par-baked, preparing the bagels are, pardon the expression, a piece of cake!" - Joe Smith, President, NY Bagel Enterprises
As a NY Bagel Cafe & Deli franchisee, you’ll receive complete training and counsel every step of the way. Everything from recommendations with site selection and lease negotiations to help with staff selection and marketing development is built into your support.
Taste a Great Bagel and Taste Success! 
According to recent studies, the percentage of food dollars spent away from home is 44 percent, expected to grow to 50 percent by 2010. Plus, since 1995, U.S. bagel sales have increased 500% – thanks to Americans’ desires for convenience, taste, and lower-fat alternatives to typical franchise bagel taste. NY Bagel Cafe’ & Deli invites you to take a bite out of this growth.
You’ll find that NY Bagel Cafe & Deli runs rings around other bagel shops with a delicious array of complementary foods. Like popular Boar’s Head deli meats, the smoothest flavored creamed and quality hard cheeses; succulent smoked salmon and richly brewed gourmet coffees.
And how about super-sized heroes, popular wrap sandwiches, freshly prepared salads, baked fresh muffins and tantalizing cookies? Combine any or all of these items, and NY Bagel Cafe & Deli can bring you a brisk catering business: business meetings, breakfasts, luncheons and parties of all kind.
