About Us
On a crisp autumn morning in 1996, Izzy
awoke at the crack of dawn to begin fulfilling his dream of recreating
a family recipe and bringing to Palo Alto, California the authentic
bagels he had loved in Brooklyn, where he had spent his most
impressionable years.
He boiled the bagels, rolled them in seeds,
and baked them to a golden-brown gloss.
He whipped fresh cream cheese until it
surrendered a rich creaminess.
With trembling hands, he assembled the perfect bagel sandwich.
Today, Izzy's Brooklyn Bagels offers the flavors of
Brooklyn fresh every day.
When you visit Izzy's, you may get the feeling you're in one of those
places that's “always been there.” That was the idea, the way we want
you to feel.
