Our Story
The earliest record of a bagels in Fine family lore is from 1897, when our great-great grandfather, Hyman (ne Chaim) Cooper declared that he was moving from Warsaw to New York City because "The bagels are better." The rest of the family soon abandoned its small challah bakery and moved to the New World as, indeed, the bagels were better in America. Four generations later, the family remains both devoted and fussy about bagels.
In 2013, Fine Bagels opened its doors in Berlin and has been rolling, boiling, and baking authentic NY bagels ever since. Our mission is to make wonderful bagels and the scrumptious treats of the Jewish-American bakery and to maintain our food traditions and heritage in this new-old-world. We bake because eating a hot bagel and schmear every morning is not a privilege, it’s a birthright.
