Overview
BABS' DELI is on the forefront of the fast casual dining boom. We stand
apart from the crowd with growth and consumer appeal because of our
commitment to excellence in all aspects of our business.
The BABS’ DELI restaurant concept was developed to delight not only customers, but our franchise owner-operators as well. As a BABS’ DELI franchisee, you’ll be able to produce freshly baked Big Apple Bagels brand bagels, My Favorite Muffin brand gourmet muffins, a wide assortment of delicious sandwiches and salads, and serve our own Brewster’s brand of brewed coffee and specialty drinks.
The BABS' DELI menu offers a broad range of lunch options to round out our menu and keep our customers coming back. Whether it’s our California Triple Decker Club sandwich on toasted wheat bread, Overstuffed Corned Beef sandwich on rye, colorful Calypso Salad, or deli sandwich favorite on a bagel, there is something for everyone.
Unlike other sandwich concepts, BABS’ DELI has a proven breakfast program. With the strength of the Big Apple Bagels®, My Favorite Muffin® and Brewster's® coffee brands your restaurant doubles as a bakery-café. As another example of its multiple identities, the restaurant is not only a retail destination, but also a wholesale distributorship from which your baked-from-scratch bagels and muffins can be sold in bulk to corporate clients, restaurants, convenience stores and other businesses for resale. If you've been to one of our restaurants, you've seen -- and tasted -- what keeps our customers coming back for more: Big freshly baked bagels, made from scratch ... enhanced with our exclusive varieties of CLASSIC RECIPE™ cream cheese, or made into a fresh deli or breakfast sandwich ... served with a cup of one of our gourmet Brewster's® coffees.
