Our story
Independent. Locally owned. Built around one good idea.
Built around doing the work right.
Rosenberg's Bagels & Delicatessen opened in 2021 by three friends who'd worked at big specialty coffee shops in Portland, Brooklyn, and Austin. We wanted to do an honest neighborhood coffee bar — proper extraction, good music, real ceramic, and beans you could actually taste.
We source from a small group of importers who pay farmers fairly and trace their lots back to specific farms (not just "Ethiopian Yirgacheffe" but the actual co-op + processing date). Our bean menu rotates every 2-4 weeks as lots cycle in. We tell you what you're drinking on the chalkboard.
Our pastries come from the bakery next door — they bake at 4am, we get the trays at 6am. Same scones, croissants, and tarts the bakery sells at twice the price out front. We do not have a kids menu, juice, or smoothies. We do coffee, and we do it well.
