ASTORIA — A local bagel shop is opening a second space in the neighborhood.
New York City Bagel & Coffee House will open another Astoria location this spring at 40-05 Broadway, the company announced on social media this week and its owners confirmed to DNAinfo New York.
Michael Lagudis, who opened the original cafe at 29-08 23rd Ave. with co-owner John Loukas, said the Broadway site will offer the same menu as the first — meaning bagels made daily in-house, an array of cream cheese flavors and coffee from Brooklyn roaster Stone Street.
"It's going to be run the same way," Lagudis said. "We have the same baker, the same roller — it's going to be identical."
He said they're hoping to open their doors on March 25, which will mark the two-year anniversary of the opening of their first location.
"We're trying very hard for that," he said.
