Our Story
Crafting moments with bagels and fresh coffee
Brewing a Legacy: The Spielman Family Story
Spielman Bagels & Coffee began in 2011 as a father-son coffee roasting company. Rick and his son Raf Spielman opened their first location on SE Division. Their focus for the shop was to bring the environmental benefits of shade grown coffee to a wider audience through in-house roasting.
Crafting Tradition, One Bagel and Brew at a Time
Spielman Coffee did well, but the bagels quickly stole the show. The uniquely “Portland Style” bagel was made from a sourdough starter and kettle-boiled to perfection. The soft, doughy center was the perfect contrast to the crunchy exterior, quickly becoming a local favorite.
A Legacy of Coffee & Bagels
Since 2011, our bagels have taken off. we’ve expanded to four Portland locations, a wholesale kitchen, and over 50 vendors throughout Salem, Portland, and Vancouver. Though we continue to grow, we maintain our vision of providing high quality, artisanal food and drink to the community, while embracing the spirit that makes Portland unique.
