JERSEY CITY, NJ — After posting on social media a year ago that "something is baking and brewing behind the scenes," a bagel shop on Grove Street in Jersey City said they finally planned to open — and then another one followed suit.

The new shop called Bbagels scheduled their soft opening on Wednesday, which is also National Bagel Day, noted Jersey City's Downtown Special Improvement District this week.

It's a soft open, not a grand opening celebration.

"They're baking fresh, squeezing oranges, brewing good coffee and serving with a warm smile," said the SID on Tuesday. "We wish them the best of luck with their soft open...FINALLY."

Cheech Bagels, also long awaited, said it will open in March 2025.

They're located in the growing western part of the Hamilton Park neighborhood, just east of the Hoboken border. They're in the new Silverman residential building called Swift & Co., which contains several businesses including the &Co. North co-work space.

Find them at 176 Erie St.
