Call Your Mother is bringing its bagels to Denver with two locations

• One shop will be nestled in Capitol Hill, the other on Tennyson Street. Both will boast bright, Instagram-w​​orthy colors — a CYM signature.
• In addition to serving its staples, like the Royal Palm with smoked salmon and capers, the chain plans to offer a few fresh items, too, in partnership with local restaurants. (Details remain under wraps for now.)

What they're saying: CYM owners Andrew Dana and Daniela Moreira scouted cities across the country before falling in love with Colorado, where Dana's goddaughter lives.

• "It felt like home. We love the architecture. We love the neighborhoods. It has these great different pockets. It feels a lot like D.C.," Dana told the Washingtonian. "We had that a-ha moment, that warm, fuzzy feeling in the belly."

🥯 My thought bubble: My fiancé and I used to live a few blocks from the OG location in DC — and I can confirm these bagels are bomb.

But, but, but: Their lines can get wildly long.

• Pro tip: Assuming the fandom is contagious in Colorado, go early on a weekday morning to avoid the crowds (Thursdays and Fridays can be busy), grab a tub of their homemade schmear and order a dozen bagels to store in your freezer.
