Bagelsaurus

Handmade bagels in Porter Square, Cambridge. We're a modern bagel bakeshop and café in Cambridge, Massachusetts specializing in handmade, slow-fermented bagels.

Over 24 hours of patience and fermentation, we coax five simple ingredients and a decades-old sourdough culture into a chewy, crackly, uniquely flavorful version of your favorite breakfast bread.

There’s a new cream cheese on the block. This plant based spread is from the genius minds of and we love how it mimics the texture of real dairy cream cheese so beautifully. It’s made from cultured lentils and chickpeas! How do they do it?! The Garlic & Herb variety is very Alouette in the best way. Let us know what you think!
