The Bagel Table, located at 21 Andrew Ave., closed its doors for the last time on Sunday, June 29, marking the end of a brief but popular run in one of Wayland’s most visible commercial corners.
Situated near the Route 20 retail corridor and just steps from Stop & Shop, the café occupied part of the former Panera Bread location, which had anchored the Wayland Town Center since its opening in 2012. Known for its New York–style bagels, breakfast sandwiches and local vibe, the Bagel Table has become a favored morning stop for commuters, families and weekend walkers alike.
Its closure follows a pattern of retail turnover at the Town Center, where a mix of national chains and local businesses have struggled to establish a long-term presence. While there has been no formal announcement about a replacement tenant, the site’s central location and built-in foot traffic may draw new interest as the plaza continues to evolve. The Bagel Table’s exit leaves a void in the local breakfast and coffee scene — and adds another open question to the ongoing conversation about retail sustainability in Wayland.
