Own the Most Exciting
Bagel Brand in America
A proven concept. A passionate community. A scratch-made product with a high barrier to entry. Now franchising.
Why Dan's Bagels
The Product
Proprietary sourdough recipe honed over 2 years of testing. Triple fermentation over 48 hours. High barrier to entry. Not easily replicated. Customers drive 30+ minutes to get these bagels.
The Brand
Named to Yelp's Top 10 Bagel Shops in the US & Canada (Dallas Observer). Viral growth without advertising. Press coverage from NBC 5, D Magazine, and more. A community following that money can't buy.
The Model
Morning hours (7am-1pm). Small footprint (1,800-2,200 sq ft). Simple menu. High-margin scratch-made products. Sellout culture minimizes waste.
The Market
DFW is the #1 real estate market to watch in 2026. 8.3 million residents. Fastest-growing US metro. The artisan bagel segment is massively underserved.
Who We're Looking For

- Prior restaurant experience strongly recommended
- Passion for craft, community, and customer service
- Financial requirements: $400K+ net worth, $100K+ liquid
- Willingness to complete comprehensive training program
This isn't passive income. This is building something you're proud of.
