Meyerland’s Popular Bagel Shop Bakery Opens Long-Awaited Bellaire Location

WHY NOT START off the new year with Houston's best bagel?


After nearly 50 years, Meyerland's favorite breakfast spot has finally expanded, opening a new location in neighboring Bellaire. The Bagel Shop Bakery, the companion concept to New York Deli & Coffee Shop, has bowed in a former drug store and pawn shop at 5422 Bellaire Boulevard.

The Bagel Shop, which is Houston Kashruth- and Mehadrin Kashrus of Texas-certified, welcomes Food Network star Roshni Gurnani as its executive chef, and Adriana Soto as the kitchen supervisor. Expect plenty of perfectly chewy bagels — plusnew items like a falafel burger, deep-fried blintzes and the Elvis Schmelvish bagel sandwich.

Guests can order at the counter and sit on the patio, which will soon adjoin a new outpost of the New York Deli & Coffee Shop, slated to open next year.

Leadership in Action: CEO Theresa Roemer Credits Mother, Mentors and Mindset for Accomplishments

How did you get to where you are today? My journey to where I am today is built on a foundation of hard work, dedication, and perseverance. Every step along the way, I faced obstacles, but I approached each one with determination and a “never give up” mindset. Instead of being discouraged by challenges, I used them as opportunities to grow and improve. Consistency was key—I committed to showing up and giving my best effort every day. I also learned not to take “no” as a final answer. Instead, I saw it as a chance to push harder, adapt, and find another way forward. It’s this combination of persistence, resilience, and unwavering focus that has brought me to where I am today.

And they weren’t alone in their admiration. Both the City of Houston and the State of Texas declared the day of the to-do “Dr. Jacquie Baly Day,” complete with official proclamations.
