The Gainesville bagel scene is about to get a little more exciting. Call Your Mother, one of the DMV’s top purveyors of delicious carbs, is planning a new location in the area, set to open “soon-ish”.

 

Locals will be able to stop in for a bagel and a coffee at 7372 Atlas Walk Way. Call Your Mother’s new 1,300 square foot storefront will be able to accommodate around 22 guests. Co-owner Andrew Dana previously described the vision for the Gainesville location to Northern Virginia Magazine as “We’re going to make it super-duper vibey, vibrant, colorful, so fun…We try and have every store have sort of a unique pop.”   

 

It is not clear yet precisely when Call Your Mother will be opening in the area; the website says only “soon-ish” However the original objective was Q1 of this year, suggesting that the cafe and bakery may be ready to greet customers soon.

 

Launched in fall of 2018, Call Your Mother has become a DMV staple. The chain now has multiple locations open across the region, as well as storefronts in Colorado and others in development in Illinois and Pennsylvania. 

 

The concept, founded by Andrew Dana and Daniela Moreira has made a name for itself through a whimsical but dedicated approach to its cuisine. The website explains: “We take the familiar flavors of deli classics and Chef Dani cranks them up with a playful, uniquely-CYM twist. Almost everything is made in-house; and if not, we source them from some super awesome partners like Z&Z, Logan’s Sausage, and Liberty Delights.”
