Thank you for taking the time to visit the new Brooklyn Bagel and Deli website. While the website may be new, Brooklyn Bagel and Deli, located right here in Gulf Gate in beautiful Sarasota, has offered a variety of fresh bagels, deli sandwiches, and salads since 2015. In 2019 change happen, and we hope by now you have had the opportunity to meet Nick & Amanda in person during one of your visits to the deli. You never know when you will catch Nick wearing a crazy pair of socks or a colorful shirt, but when he sees you, you sure do feel welcome!

 

Nick, originally from Pittsburgh, PA., moved here as a young child. Nick has been in the Hospitality Industry for over 23 years, working with some of the most significant hotel brands, Hilton, IHG, and Choice Hotels. Nick brings that training, customer service, and enthusiasm to the shop.

 

Amanda, a native of Sarasota, Amanda has worked for Sarasota County Schools and coached high school cheerleading for past 20+ years. Amanda is always giving herself to the community. If you come once, twice, or multiple times a week, you will notice all the touches and organization Amanda has put in place; everything is labeled, even " Sally," the slicer!

 

Nick & Amanda's love story started in June 1992 when they became neighbors. They have been together since 7th grade! They have three exceptional children: Crystal, who is attending college in St. Augustine; Hailey, who is attending college in Tallahassee; and Landen, who attends Sarasota High School and is a future entrepreneur.
