Bagels & Beans bakery products

Bagels & Beans is a prominent Dutch lunchroom chain that specializes in various types of bagels, organic coffee, and fresh juices. Founded in 1996 in Amsterdam, the brand was established by Ronald Bakker and Ninande Thio with the goal of creating a 'haven of peace' in a busy city environment.

The products, including the bagels and pastries often found in the brown paper packaging shown, are typically prepared fresh on-site or sourced from local bakeries within the Netherlands. The brand has grown significantly via a franchising model, maintaining a strong local identity while expanding across the country.

Ownership remains within the Netherlands, as the company operates as a private entity focusing on sustainable and organic growth. The brand has built a reputation for its focus on craftsmanship and the use of natural ingredients, avoiding the industrial feel of larger international fast-food chains.
