BIZNOTE FOLLOWUP: Checking in with Royal Bagel

Readers have been asking for a progress report on Royal Bagel, which we first told you about back in May. Proprietor Eric Brougham – a relative of the legendary Royal Brougham, hence the name – tells WSB that construction in the storefront at 6045 California SW is now under way, after he obtained a key permit recently. He is still hoping for a fall opening of his shop offering New York-style bagels.

I’ve never been more excited in my entire life.

What was the name of the bagel shop in Admiral? They were pretty good. Glad to see another Bagel shop back.

Zatz.

  Thank you! I was racking my brain with oddball letters; Z, Q, V, W…

Is Delphinium Deli open? It looks closed every time I drive by.

I was just going to ask the same. The sign out front says spring 2026 but I don’t think it has opened yet.
Jeff S August 25, 2026 (11:06 am)

It’s not a real deli though

A sorely needed addition to our neighborhood!

I remember Pacifc Bagel next to the Starbucks space in the 1990’s. It was so fun to get a fresh bag of bagels with flavored cream cheese in a Saturday morning.
