Washington, D.C
This internet-famous bagel shop hit DC and the line went around the block
It’s a bagel that has achieved almost rockstar status. PopUp Bagels has taken social media by storm, and you can now get them in D.C.
The grand opening of the new location in Georgetown on Friday was quite the event. A line of bagel fans went out of the store, up Wisconsin Avenue NW and onto M Street. Someone tossed bagels out of the shop’s upper window to those eagerly awaiting below.
So, what makes these bagels different? It’s the way you eat them.
You don’t cut a PopUp bagel. You take the hot bagel, grip it, rip it and dip it into a schmear.
“It’s like chips and dip. You can’t go wrong,” one visitor told News4.
There are going to be 40 pop-up bagel shops around the country by the end of May.
