After months of searching for a new space and building out the new location, she is ready to open her doors to customers again.
Located across from Arborland shopping center, Rockette hopes the busy area will bring more business to the family-owned bagel shop.
MD Bagel Fragel is known for its fragels, a deep-fried cinnamon raisin bagel that is finished with a hefty dusting of cinnamon sugar. The fragel rose to fame as an Ann Arbor staple in the 1970s when it was developed at The Bagel Factory on South University.
Other bagel flavors include cranberry orange, cherry almond, spinach feta and jalapeno. Flavored cream cheeses are made in-house and MD Bagel Fragel serves up a variety of freshly-made bagel sandwiches.
