“When you come into 'Feltz Bagels,' you have a choice of 13 different bagels, and you can put whatever you want into it. So, here I have an everything bagel, and down here, we have all the fillings. So you can have salt beef, you have American cheese, pickles, Swiss, maybe some lettuce. So, put that in, maybe we'll have some beef in there and some onions, they like sticking together, they're not the easiest. And that is your very own signature bagel.”

Sparrow says over 2 million different

combinations are available

"The felt really resonates with people because it's very much about nostalgia. It transports you into a place where when you were a kid, where things were much more comforting, it was a lot more easygoing."
