Lenore's Handmade Bagels are authentic water-boiled bagels made with stone ground flour, water, barley malt, yeast and sea salt. We use a special variety of wheat called Yecora Rojo, grown in Texas and stone ground by our friends at Barton Springs Mill. This grain has a ton of character and flavor that is simply missing in modern wheat. Of course, the resulting bagels taste really good, but using great wheat also means that every bagel we bake supports hard working Texan farmers and contributes to strengthening the local food economy.
Currently we offer four varieties: our classic plain, poppy seed, sesame seed, and (the quite popular) everything bagel. For the moment, our bagels are BYOS -- bring your own schmear, that is. (don't worry, we will make and sell cream cheese and other toppings soon, just not quite yet.)
We bake big batches of bagels a few times each week. Our online bagel shop opens up for pre-orders a few days before each bake. The easiest way to get your hands on some Lenore's bagels is to text 'bagels' to 214-480-4627 to join the Secret Bagel Club.
A few days before we bake a batch of bagels, we send out a text message to all of our subscribers. As soon as that text is sent, we open up our online bagel shop at lenoresbagels.com -- create an account with your phone number and zip code, and reserve yourself some bagels before they're all gone!
The morning of pickup, we will send you a quick text letting you know that your bagels are ready. During covid-19 we are partnering with other local businesses that we love so we can serve more people across the metroplex, and so that our customers can discover and support other great local businesses in their area. We believe in better quality food for everyone, and to us, that means more local food, and more local support.
