Yaba's Bagels
Yaba's Bagels is Dunwoody's go-to spot for fresh, handcrafted New York-style bagels with a Mediterranean soul. From the first bite, you'll taste the difference — perfectly chewy, golden-baked bagels loaded with house-made spreads, fresh toppings, and flavors inspired by the rich culinary traditions of the Middle East. Tucked in the heart of the Perimeter area, Yaba's is where neighbors, professionals, and food lovers come together to start their day right.
Our place
For the Love of Bagels
Yaba's Bagels was born out of family tradition, passion, and a love for bringing people together through food. The story starts with Lena, whose entrepreneurial drive was sparked by the bagel-making craft passed down from her father — a man who learned the trade working in the iconic bagel shops of New York City.
Carrying that legacy with her to Atlanta, Lena partnered with her husband Ahmad to turn that family tradition into something the Dunwoody community could call their own. Together, they built Yaba's into a neighborhood staple where New York-style bagels meet Mediterranean-inspired flavors — honoring the past while creating something entirely new.
