Bite the Bagel Story
Jim and Sara Januszka have dreamed of opening their own bagel shop for more than 19 years. After all, a bagel first brought the two together in Michigan.
The year was 1991. Jim was the co-owner of a bagel shop he and his sister opened in Ada, Michigan; a little section to the East of Grand Rapids. Every day, like clockwork, Sara would go into Jim’s shop after work to buy a bagel for her long drive home.
After six long weeks, Jim gained enough courage to ask Sara out on a date. In 1993, the couple married and Jim left the business so he could join the Army as a field artillery officer.
Jim, Sara, and their five children have been stationed in Korea, Alaska, Japan, Kentucky, Oklahoma, and Fort Hood. In 2002, the Januszkas bought a home in Harker Heights with the idea they would someday return to open a business after Jim retired from the Army. As Jim’s final days in the Army got nearer, the couple spent the last year planning and making their dream a reality.
Now a few years down the line, the couple has put in the time and work and seen the results. Now in two locations – the original Harker Heights location and now a second location on Clear Creek Rd, Killeen – Bite the Bagel is still just as dedicated to providing fresh, delicious, and health-conscious choices as they were the day they opened. They are dedicated to serving the community and pride themselves on providing a clean, friendly atmosphere that fosters customer trust and loyalty.
