The Detroit Institute of Bagels may have closed up shop in Detroit’s Corktown, but bagels aren’t leaving with it.

The beloved Detroit Institute of Bagels in Corktown has closed after seven years on Michigan Avenue. After shutting down at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, the DIB reopened with limited hours and fulfillment options in May. The bagel shop paused operations again in July after a delivery truck mishap knocked out their power lines and fried their walk-in fridge. Since then, DIB owner Ben Newman decided to step away from the business entirely, listing the building and equipment for sale. So while the current Detroit Institute of Bagels is closed, hope for a reboot is not lost.
