A new bagel shop is headed to Brookland Park Boulevard. Julio’s Bagels comes from Pizza Bones owner Ashley Patino.
Earlier this month, Richmond BizSense reported that a lease had been signed and a building permit filed for the shop. It will be located in the former Ms. Bee’s Juice Bar, which recently moved to Jackson Ward.
Richmonders are passionate about bagels, but there are surprisingly few dedicated shops. Within city limits, Nate’s in the Fan and Chewy’s in Carytown are the two main options, but Cupertino’s in Henrico is worth the drive for many.
The bagel scene is picking up in Richmond. Nate’s is working on a second location in Scott’s Addition and buzzy pop-up Sunday Bagel is gaining steam at events around the city.
An opening date for Julio’s has not yet been announced, but you can follow the Instagram for updates.
