Heaton restaurant Dot Bagels are set to take over a prime site in neighbouring Jesmond. The new Jesmond Dot Bagels is set to open at the former Greggs outlet on Acorn Road in September.
Some of what’s on offer
Dot Bagels is known by locals for its handmade bagels, which have earned it a growing reputation in the area.
It’s set to bring its menu of six different types of bagels, with a choice of 18 different fillings, to Jesmond.
Customers can try everything from the traditional Boujie Lox, with smoked salmon and cream cheese, to others inspired by Middle Eastern and American cuisines.
The Reuben – pastrami, cheese, mustard mayo, gherkins, and sauerkraut – is inspired by the flavours of New York City, as is the New York Parmo; a stateside version of the North East classic, with a breaded chicken breast, marinara sauce –mozzarella cheese, signature Dot sauce and rocket.
The NFC contains Nashville fried buttermilk chicken with green goddess slaw and buffalo sauce, while the Hallou-me? bagel is filled with roasted Mediterranean vegetables, halloumi, pesto, balsamic glaze, and rocket.
Vegan and vegetarian alternatives to the meat-based fillings are available while the
Shawarma del Rey and the Sriracha Slide have been specifically created with vegans in mind.
The Shawarma is a jackfruit version of the Middle Eastern spit roasted spiced kebab with chopped salad, pickled red cabbage and a tangy, mango amba sauce while the slide features tofu fried in a sriracha sauce with pickled carrot and mooli slaw. …mf
The bagels themselves can be either plain or baked with sesame seeds, crispy onion and garlic, Cheddar and chives, Cheddar and jalapeños or a combination of onion, garlic, sesame, and poppy seeds.
”A perfect fit”
Owner Stuart Young, said Jesmond “is a perfect fit” for the new Dot Bagels location.
He continued: “Not only is Acorn Road a thriving destination venue, with a high proportion of independent traders, but it’s also home to a huge number of students and they form a sizeable percentage of our existing customer base.
“We are thoroughly looking forward to bringing Dot Bagels to Jesmond.”
Dot Bagels at Jesmond will open daily from 8am until 3pm.
