The team at Rebelle shared the following: 

We have made the tough decision to close the doors to our shop effective immediately. We worked hard to keep going through the pandemic and we are immensely proud to have made it to this point… but we don’t have the team we need to meet the service level that you’re used to anymore. 

We haven’t had a steady roster of sandwich makers for months and doing online & in person & bodega & everything to keep it going has worn us down. It’s time to call it a day, at least for now. We need a reset. 

Thank you for cheering us on this whole time! Our supporters and regulars are truly a joy and we will miss you. (Come see us at @littlesisterpvd !!) We are keeping the kitchen; we still have our lease, our landlords are the best, and we are going to put our heads together to sort out how Rebelle can come back in this same space, different vision, same amazing bagels & leadership team. 

In the meantime… we will continue our commitment to the @farmfreshri Sims Ave market on Saturdays 9-1. That’ll be your weekly bagel pit stop! Just like the old pop-up days. Everything old is new again. 

Thanks for the good times & cheers to a new era,
Milena, Darcy & the Rebelle team
