Our Roots

-
At Nomad Bagel, we’re not just baking bagels—we’re continuing a tradition that began decades ago in the heart of Wheeling with our parent company Bagel and Bialy II. Since its founding, Bagel and Bialy II has been a neighborhood staple, known for its warm hospitality, hand-rolled bagels, and old-world recipes passed down through generations. This is where our story begins.

Today, as new stewards of this cherished institution, we are honored to carry forward its legacy. Our roots are deeply entwined with the spirit of Bagel and Bialy II: community, craftsmanship, and authenticity. We believe that good food tells a story, and ours is one of heritage, pride, and resilience.
As we honor our tradition, we are moving to a brighter future—bringing you the classics you love alongside modern flavors, new offerings, and updated experiences. Whether it’s through locally sourced ingredients, digital ordering, creative breakfast mashups, or a reimagined café vibe, we’re committed to delivering excellence without losing the essence of what made Bagel and Bialy II so beloved.
From early mornings in the kitchen to your family table, our dedication to quality and community remains the same. We’re not just keeping the legacy alive—we’re building on it, one bagel at a time.
