The Iconic Sunrise Bagel Opening New Location in Augusta, Maine

Get ready for breakfast, Augusta, Maine!

The beloved and iconic Sunrise Bagel of Waterville is spreading its wings and opening up another location in Augusta, according to CentralMaine.com. 

Owner Tiffany Lopes has been told over and over by people that they want a shop in Augusta, the news outlet reported, so she decided to go for it.

The article states Sunrise Bagel sells just under a thousand bagels on the weekends.

Her loving daughter Katie will manage the Augusta location, according to CentralMaine.com.

The 2,000-foot building is waiting to be filled with the aroma of yummy bagels. Her space is being renovated now at the Augusta Plaza shopping mall, which was formerly a Little Caesars at 60 Western Avenue, the news outlet stated.

Sunrise Bagel is planning on opening in September, according to CentalMaine.com.

Bagel enthusiasts and breakfast lovers alike are going to be excited to enter this epic spot. Can you tell that I am a fanatic for bagels?

According to Central Maine, Lopes said,

"My philosophy is bagels make the world go ’round, I think we can help lift each other up. We’ll become the bagel capital of Maine."

Lopes also believes in the power of community (and so do I) and will aim to raise the bagel scene and share success with other similar establishments. I'm excited to see her do just that.

Want to know what the ingredient for a Sunrise Bagels bagel is? The website states "unbleached and unbromated wheat and barley flour, sourdough starter, barley malt, kosher salt, filtered water."

Sounds fresh.

Get ready for Sunrise Bagels' second location in Augusta, opening soon.
