BKD Bagel Review | Leesburg, Virginia

I love bagels! I was so excited to try BKD Bagels, the newest and hottest bagel shop that recently opened in Downtown Leesburg. Along with using high-quality ingredients, the cooking process is just as vital to making the bagels a culinary experience. After making the dough, BKD does a slow, cold rise, so all the dough is refrigerated for at least 12 hours.

I ordered the Hangover Bagel as a nod to my sons who were home for Thanksgiving break. I was getting ready for work and they were coming home from a night out with friends! 

The Hangover = a fluffy egg, melty cheese, a sausage patty and a crispy hash brown delicately placed in the middle of a perfectly toasted, hand rolled bagel of your choice. I chose jalapeno cheddar. The bagel had amazing flavor with a little kick to get my day started. I got 2 more Hangovers to take home for my boys...they needed them! 

BKD Bagels is a family-owned business that offers many different bagel options and fresh Illy coffee on-site with free refills as well as nitro cold brew and a champagne bar upstairs. You can get your favorite breakfast with their assortment of flavors, including a GF bagel from the Difference Baker, or indulge in one of their breakfast pastries. They’re open 7 days a week 8a-2p, if they don’t sell out first! If you're looking for some fresh bagels and want to support a local business, let’s meet at BKD Bagels to chat all things real estate and Loudoun County.
