The first-ever outpost for Pete\u2019s in Tarpon Springs officially made its debut on Wednesday at 810 Dodecanese Blvd.<\/p>\n<p>Founded by husband and wife Steven and Sara Peterman, Pete\u2019s Bagels has made a significant impact on our community since its inception in 2019. After spending 10 years in New York, the couple returned with bagels fresh on the mind. Quickly outgrowing their first location, they\u2019ve achieved an impressive foothold in the St. Pete and Tampa communities. Now, the local company is going north, opening yet another store in Tarpon Springs.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" http:=\"\" alt=\"Outside of Pete's Bagels in Tarpon Springs\" class=\"wp-image-245969\" data-lazy- data-lazy- data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/petes2-1024x576.webp.webp\"\/><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/petes2-1024x576.webp.webp\" alt=\"Outside of Pete's Bagels in Tarpon Springs\" class=\"wp-image-245969\"  \/>Photo via Pete\u2019s Bagels<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis one feels different,\u201d the company wrote on social media. \u201cWe are honored, grateful and sooo excited to be open in Tarpon Springs.

Not only does it sit right on the water so customers can munch on delicious bagels while wildlife-watching, but the building itself is beautiful. Two floors and outdoor seating ensure this place can fit a host of bagel goers.<\/p>\n<p>What sets Pete\u2019s Bagels apart from other places is\u2026 the bagels! Seriously, as someone who frequents their St. Pete location, I\u2019m surprised every Saturday morning how fast the bagels go and how long the line is to place an order. Pete\u2019s bagels are made fresh every day and sell extremely fast. My personal favorite is the Salty Pete or the Sunny Pete.<\/p>\n<p>Make sure to follow Pete\u2019s Bagels on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/petes_general\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Instagram<\/a> for more updates!
