Albany Bagel Co. is an experiment. The goal: bring real bagels to the city of Albany and build the community while we're at it. All of the restaurant's profits are donated to Albany charities.

Last summer we sold plain and everything bagels at the Crossings Farmers' Market in Colonie, and we raised over $2600 for our charities. We're still figuring out what the next step for Albany Bagel is. Please sign up for our email list to stay in the loop:

We also use this site for occasional posts that aren't specifically about bagels. Check out our 1877 Albany map overlay, our 1857 map overlay of Albany's north end, our post about the Van Rensselaer Manor House, or our recipe for avocado toast. We also have more information about our awesome logo.

If you're up for it, we'd love it if you'd use the buttons below to share Albany Bagel Co. with your friends.
