Schmear, Queen Creek’s first bagel shop, has opened on the northwest corner of Ellsworth and Victoria Lane, just north of the Communiversity and the public library.
Bagels come in 13 varieties: Plain, sesame, poppy, garlic, salt, onion, everything egg, cinnamon raisin, blueberry, chocolate chip, jalapeno, pumpernickel, and special.
The family-owned shop offers several unusual flavors of cream cheese, such as pistachio date, Old Fashioned (cherry-bourbon), celebration (cake batter), and caviar.
The menu also features sandwiches, bagel dogs, and sides.
Coffee is sourced from downtown Chandler’s Peixoto Coffee.
Schmear is open 6 a.m.-2 p.m. Monday-Friday and 7 a.m.-3 p.m. Saturday-Sunday.
