Brooklyn Water Bagel Co. Is Opening in Framingham

A Florida-based group of bagel shops that features New York-style water bagels is on its way to the area.

According to a job post on the Craigslist site, Brooklyn Water Bagel Co. is going to be opening in Framingham, with more possibly on the way to the MetroWest area. The chain makes their bagels in the classic New York way, by boiling them in water then baking them in a "traditional, revolving shelf oven" that gives them a crunchy golden-brown crust.

[April 29 update: The Framingham Patch is reporting that Brooklyn Water Bagel is now open in Framingham. The article also says that this is the first of more than two dozen shops that will be coming to Massachusetts.]

Currently, there are no Brooklyn Water Bagel locations in New England, with their handful of shops mostly being found in the Southeast.

The address for this new bagel place in Framingham is: Brooklyn Water Bagel Co., 341 Cochituate Road, Suite #5, Framingham, MA, 01701. Their website can be found at http://www.brooklynwaterbagels.com/
