Olde Brooklyn Bagel Shoppe coming to this prime East Village corner space

Coming-soon signage is up for the next tenant on the NE corner of Seventh Street and Second Avenue — Olde Brooklyn Bagel Shoppe.

This will be the second location for the business, which opened in Prospect Heights in 2010. From their website: "Our bagels are hand-rolled, kettle boiled, and baked on premises — made the Olde fashioned way."

No word on an opening date.

The prime space has been empty since Sanshi Noodle House closed last summer after a year-plus in service.

Bar Virage closed here in December 2018 after 20-plus years.

    1. No trick answer: Tompkins Square Bagels takes top spot for me! :) But always happy to add another bagel shop to the neighborhood. (Far better than a bar or smoke shop any day!)

  10. Hurray! Not just bagels but a real sit-down spot for full breakfast and lunchtime sandwiches. Looks like a real neighborhood place with enough seats for patrons, not like the coffee spots commandeered by laptops for hours on end.

  12. Excellent to see a place that will actually boil & bake. All of the new trendy places that have opened the last few years don’t bother to purchase the expensive and space-consuming equipment to make an authentic bagel. And I have to assume the new breed of humans are too young to even know what a real bagel is.

  14. Place is really showing its 2010 vintage with "Olde" ... at least they didn't go with "Breukelen"

  16. Welcome to the hood. Love a good bagel. My only hope is that punks don't graffiti this corner again once they open. Look at what happened to Popeye's on A and 14th. They always seem to return to the same area and repeat the same offense.

  17. Omg this place looks amazing. Finally something we actually need. I love the variety of things they offers. This is going to fill a huge need in the immediate area and I for one plan on becoming a regular very quickly. It looks fabulous.
