about
Our Bakery
Step inside The Daily Bagel, soak up the aroma of a million different flavours of breads, bagels, croissants and muffins, mingled with cheeses, chocolate and who knows what else. It’s seductive – ask those who’re there at 6am as the doors open, for everything hot, heavenly, or healthy. Add to the edibles, that scent of a myriad coffees from Seattle Coffee next door, and you’ve come to the right place.
​
Brothers-in-law Blaike Terblanche and Warren Broad are well-known co-owners of steaming hot brand, Seattle Coffee, KZN. More like brothers than in-laws, says Blaike, they have very different skill sets, but connect like a snug handshake. Blaike describes himself as the pragmatic numbers man, Warren the passionate, creative one with flair, and together they’ve grown the Seattle brand in KZN. So much so, the only way to guarantee a consistently superior food product offering in the Seattle outlets, was to do it themselves. They’re really fussy like that. They decided to establish their own fully fledged central kitchen alongside Seattle in Mount Edgecombe, and simultaneously, create an entirely unique food brand and outlet in the on-site shop-front space. Something different, something independent.

about
Blaike talked about the work they’ve put in to create the perfect menu, with the emphasis on artisanal creativity and healthy food: “We’ve taken nine months to perfect it so as to provide what clients want – including a number of fresh takes on old favourites. Not a day goes by when we aren’t testing something different. Our menu is as wide as it’s broad, with a versatility to suit everyone’s palate. You prefer bagels, fine. I prefer my topping on a croissant, that’s fine too. We’re entirely flexible.
​
“And we cater for everyone in an authentic and sustainable way as we possibly can. If you want organic oats, we serve them up hot and delicious. We source cheeses and butters, free range and organic products, fresh from local farms; we travel far and wide to find the perfect charcuterie; we’ll give you gluten free, or you can have a shot of our top-of-the-range probiotics in any one of our freshly squeezed juices or smoothies.” The Daily Bagel is wholly committed to being plastic free, and at 95% and climbing, it’s a goal the partners pursue vigorously.
The Daily Bagel is a welcoming, contented kind of space, with a cool, contemporary vibe. The decor and shop fittings contribute to that sense of well-being, and you’ll be as comfortable there if you’ve popped in to take home a homemade pure meat pie, or you’re settling in to tackle a few emails over coffee and an oversized buttery Nutella croissant. From your favourite healthy breakfast, to a delectably different pasta bowl at lunch time, to healthy salads, afternoon tea and a rich chocolatey muffin – you can pick whatever you like off the menu, whenever you like.
