Daily Driver

Daily Driver’s flagship location in Dogpatch feels more like a hip coworking space than it does a spot for wood-fired bagels. Luckily for carbohydrate enthusiasts with sh*t to do, it’s both. When you step inside the two-story spot (there are couches, tables, and bar seats upstairs), you’ll see ovens set up right in the middle of everything, and petite bagels rolled out and baked fresh daily. Would we cross town in bumper-to-bumper traffic for them? No, but they get the job done for a quick breakfast in the area. 

The menu is pretty straightforward—you can build your own bagel with spreads and toppings like house-cured gravlax or avocado, but we like to go with the classic bacon, egg, and cheese on an everything bagel. No matter how you dress it up, the bagels are well-seasoned all over and have a satisfying crunch.
