Have you been to the new Driggs location of Pearl Street Bagels?
Every Jackson local knows this fact: there’s nothing quite like a Pearl Street Bagel: a perfectly crisp crust with just chewy enough inside and sweet and savory flavors for any mood. And that’s not even taking into account the constellation of cream cheese, topping, coffee, cookies and more.
Pearl Street Bagels has been a Jackson Hole institution for over 30 years. And now, it’s begun its journey to becoming a Teton Valley staple as well. Around the first of the new year, a brand new Pearl Street Bagels location opened in the heart of downtown Driggs, Idaho.
The reception, perhaps unsurprisingly, has been as warm as the bagels, evidenced by these locals’ enthusiastic comments on Facebook:
“PSB has been one of my happy places for years! So happy and excited to have them even closer now!” – Andrea Nielson
“Good job, the building looks amazing. Can’t wait to come see all the hard work!!!” – Rob Hollis
“Will stop by tomorrow AM for sure! Very happy you are here!!” – Liddy Damron Ellis
“Hooray….so glad you came to the sunny side. Bagel options are always welcomed.” – Nell Fay

Same, Same, but Different…
Pearl Street Bagels owner Heather Gould says that so far, the Driggs location has been very sucessful. “The reception has been awesome,” she said. “Every day, people are thanking us for opening. We have folks who are already regulars!”
Gould said that while the menu is very much the same as the other Pearl Street Bagels locations, the building itself lends a unique vibe. “Everything is made on site, and we’ve got all the same offerings as the other two. But it’s in a really cool building,” she said. “We’ve got the same artist, Greta Getzinger, who added some artwork. It’s a neat spot.”
Like the other two shops on the eastern side of the Tetons, Pearl Street Bagels in Driggs isn’t exclusively grab-and-go, but it’s cozy with just four tables inside.
