“After enjoying Japanese-style bagels in Japan, ABURI Restaurants (Miku, Minami, Aburi Hana) founder Seigo Nakamura brought them back to Vancouver in fall, opening WA-BAGEL in the city’s Downtown District. Tucked within Park Place Building on its concourse level, discover a counter-service destination fueling locals-in-the-know with a premium selection of just-made bagels and sandwiches.” - NICOLE SCHNITZLER
Where Tokyo Meets New York
What makes a Japanese-style bagel?
WA-BAGEL, a delightful & new Japanese-style bagel shop in the heart of Vancouver's financial district. The artful process of crafting our bagels involves filling and twisting select ingredients seamlessly into the dough, all without disrupting its natural texture through kneading or mixing. Japanese ingredients are used to create exciting flavours that are beautifully preserved within every single bite, promising a truly unique experience.
