About
When Matt Johnson moved to Heber City, he set out on a mission: to bring NY-style bagels to Utah.
Matt opened The Bagel Den and sourced the bagel dough from Long Island, New York. While he could have used local dough, Matt knew that he needed to go out of state to get that famous NYC chewy texture. It's why their website boasts, "Born in NY, Baked in Utah."
The NY dough arrives fresh every week, and from there, the bagel wizards at The Bagel Den add locally sourced ingredients to create the 19 unique flavors diners have come to know and love.
In a world where fast food and impersonal service are the norm, The Bagel Den shines. From the time-honored bagel recipes and homemade spreads to the hip-chill vibe in the restaurant, dining at The Bagel Den is refreshing and rewarding.
The Bagel Den's commitment to quality and community is evident in supporting local farmers and ranchers. The end result is camaraderie in the area and amazing NY-style bagels.
Whether you're craving a bagel for breakfast or a bagel sandwich later in the day, The Bagel Den will satisfy your hunger faster than a NY minute.
