After a devastating fire forced Bagel Oasis to close, the beloved Fresh Meadows bagel shop reopened its doors on Friday, August 1st, 2024.
This iconic establishment, located at 183-12 Horace Harding Expressway, Fresh Meadows, has been a cornerstone of the Queens community since 1961 and is eager to welcome back its loyal patrons and once again fill the air with the aroma of freshly baked bagels.
For over six decades, Bagel Oasis has been more than just a bagel shop; it’s been a place where neighbors gather, friendships are forged, and memories are made. Bagel Oasis is a true neighborhood institution known for its commitment to quality and a warm, welcoming atmosphere.
Among the many delights that keep customers returning are their famous “Everything Bagel,” a classic favorite that pairs perfectly with any topping or spread. Another standout is the E9 Sandwich, a hearty combination of two eggs, bacon, cheese, and a hash brown, all nestled in a fresh bagel. And of course, no visit to Bagel Oasis is complete without a cup of their hot brewed coffee, the perfect complement to any meal.
As part of its grand re-opening, Bagel Oasis will maintain its convenient 24/7 hours, ensuring that whether you’re craving a midnight snack or an early morning breakfast, you can always get your fix.
“We are constantly innovating,” said co-owner Maurice Bendrihem. “We have plans to introduce new bagels and sandwiches based on customer feedback in the coming months,” Bendrihem added.
What truly drives the team at Bagel Oasis is more than just the delicious food. “Seeing smiles through our customers because we make such a great quality product and giving them the best competitive prices is what we love most about running a bagel shop,” said shared owner Jose Suarez. This dedication to customer satisfaction has solidified Bagel Oasis as a beloved fixture in Queens.
The reopening on August 1st is not just a return to business; it’s a celebration of resilience, community, and the timeless appeal of a well-made bagel. Join the celebration at Bagel Oasis and experience the warmth and quality that have made it a Queens favorite for generations.
