    Bruegger’s – Dozens of Dairy-Free Bagels and a Smattering of Spreads

    2
    By Alisa Fleming on February 2, 2023 Fast Food Restaurants

    Updated February 2023! Bruegger’s is a fast casual bakery-cafe that focuses on bagels. In fact, they produce about 70 million bagels each year. They do serve some other items, but have streamlined their cafe menu in recent years to really focus on sandwiches. For a brief period, Bruegger’s offered Daiya Dairy-free Cream Cheese Style Spread. But unfortunately, due to low sales, it was discontinued. Nevertheless, they still have many dairy-free ways to top your bagel …

    Bruegger's Bagels Dairy-Free Menu Guide with Custom Order Details and Vegan Options

    Bruegger’s Bagels Dairy-Free Menu Guide with Allergen Notes & Vegan Options

    This menu guide includes dairy-free menu options first, followed by custom order components. Be aware of special order requirements in parentheses () next to the menu items, and see the Heads Up notes to help fill in the blanks.

    Other Allergen & Dietary Notes: Bruegger’s Bagels does not offer a gluten-free bagel or gluten-free bread at this time. They’ve also discontinued menu salads, but can serve sandwich options on lettuce, in a pinch. Their Vegetable Soup, where available, is made without wheat. We have noted all items that contain egg, nuts, or soy below. Please note that Bruegger’s does not label items with highly refined soybean oil as containing soy, per the FDA. For vegan options, see the Vegan Menu Guide at the bottom of this post.

    Bagels

    • Apple Cinnamon (seasonal; contains soy)
    • Blueberry
    • Bruegger Bites
    • Cinnamon Raisin
    • Cinnamon Sugar
    • Egg (contains egg)
    • Everything
    • Everything Whole Wheat
    • Garlic
    • Jalapeno
    • Onion
    • Plain
    • Poppy Seed
    • Pumpernickel
    • Pumpkin (seasonal)
    • Rosemary Olive Oil
    • Salt
    • Sesame
    • Sesame Whole Wheat
    • Whole Wheat

    Heads Up! The bagels available at Bruegger’s can vary by day, season, and location. Each location usually has about a dozen dairy-free options daily.

    Bagel Spreads: At this time Bruegger’s does not have any dairy-free cream cheese alternatives. And they no longer have hummus. They do offer Peanut Butter, Jellies, and Honey. Avocado is also still available at some locations, though not listed as a spread option.

    Breakast

    Heads Up! The Twice Baked Hash Browns contain milk. All Breakfast Sandwiches at Bruegger’s have both cheese and a butter blend (contains milk) on them. They do use the butter blend to cook the eggs. Some locations will let you special order an egg and breakfast meat sandwich, but be sure it has no butter, no cheese, and no tomato spread. See below for protein and spread options.

    Soups

    • Chicken Spaetzle (contains egg, soy)
    • Vegetable Soup (contains soy)

    Heads Up! The Chicken & Wild Rice Soup contains milk.

    Salads

    Heads Up! At the time of our review, most Bruegger’s locations were not offering salads. When they do, you can custom order a salad without cheese or croutons (they do contain milk) and with a dairy-free dressing.

    Dairy-Free Salad Dressings: Balsamic Vinaigrette, Champagne Vinaigrette (both contain soy)

    Deli Sandwiches (on DF Bagel or Bread)

    • BLT (contains egg)
    • Brisket
    • Garden Veggie (no cheese)
    • Turkey Chipotle Club (contains egg)
    • Ham (no cheese)
    • Hot Pastrami (no cheese)
    • Pastrami
    • Turkey (no cheese)
    • Western Brisket (sub dairy-free bagel) (contains egg)

    Heads Up! Beyond the menu sandwiches, Bruegger’s Bagels has a build-your-own sandwich model. See the lists below to make your own.

    Sandwich Breads

    • Ciabatta Roll
    • All Bagels Listed Above

    Condiments

    • Chipotle Mayo (contains egg)
    • Grape Jelly
    • Honey
    • Mayo (contains egg)
    • Mustard
    • Peanut Butter (contains soy)
    • Sriracha Sauce
    • Strawberry Jelly

    Heads Up! The Butter Blend and Sundried Tomato Spread contain milk.

    Proteins

    • Bacon, Peppered
    • Brisket
    • Ham
    • Pastrami
    • Pork Sausage
    • Smoked Salmon
    • Turkey
    • Turkey Sausage

    Heads Up! Bruegger’s no longer lists the Eggs as non-dairy, because they are cooked with a Butter Blend, which contains milk. You might be able to custom order an egg without butter at your location.

    Vegetables & Other Toppings

    • Avocado (limited availability)
    • Capers
    • Cucumbers
    • Green Bell Peppers
    • Lettuce
    • Pickles
    • Red Onions
    • Red Bell Peppers
    • Tomatoes

    Sides & Desserts

    • Potato Chips

    Heads Up! At this time, all Muffins and Cookies at Bruegger’s Bagels contain milk. As mentioned above, the Twice Baked Hash Browns also contain milk.

    Hot Beverages

    • Black Coffee
    • Hot & Iced Tea (not chai)

    Heads Up! The Hot Chocolate at Bruegger’s does contain milk in the mix. The Oregon Chai Tea, not the Bruegger’s Chai, can be ordered dairy free, but not vegan (it contains honey).

    Dairy-Free Flavored Syrups: Almond, Caramel, Chocolate, Hazelnut, Vanilla (the nut varieties do contain tree nuts)

    Milk Alternatives: Bruegger’s offers oat milk, almond milk, and/or soy milk. The options can vary by location.

      Does the malt used in your plain bagels contain any soy?
