Bruegger's welcomes fall with pumpkin-flavored menu items

September 19, 2012

Bruegger's Bagels is adding new menu items inspired by the fall season, and is also bringing back its pumpkin-flavored cream cheese and coffee offerings.

Bruegger's pumpkin spiced coffee and pumpkin cream cheese are back beginning today. Bruegger's is also featuring a new pumpkin bagel, first introduced in Minneapolis-St. Paul to a positive response. The bagel is now available at all of Bruegger's 300-plus U.S. locations.

"Our pumpkin bagels and cream cheese are both nostalgic and familiar, while our new fall sandwiches mix innovative flavor combinations with tried-and-true ingredients," said Philip Smith, Bruegger's executive chef.

Also new to the fall lineup is the cranberry apple bagel, made with sweet dried cranberries and apple pieces. Available through Jan. 8, the bagel can be ordered plain or with any of Bruegger's 15 cream cheese varieties and will be featured on the new turkey apple cran bagel deli sandwich with turkey, cheddar cheese and apple slices topped with cranberry mayo. The sandwich also can be ordered as part of Bruegger's "Trio," a combination of any deli bagel sandwich, chips, a cup of soup or garden salad plus drink for $6.99.

Bruegger's has also introduced the Santa Fe bagel egg sandwich, made with egg, sausage and jalapeno cream cheese and served on a plain bagel.
