The Posh Bagel is planning a new location in Lincoln at the northwest corner of Twelve Bridges Drive and Colonnade Drive, part of a multi-pad shopping center serving nearby housing and a high school. While no lease or opening date has been officially announced, the chain’s location list and local development documents both reference Lincoln, signaling its expansion into Sacramento suburbs.
Where the new shop is listed
As reported by What Now Sacramento, The Posh Bagel’s locations page includes a Lincoln listing on "12 Bridges Boulevard" with a bold "COMING SOON" tag. That entry appears on the chain's official roster and lines up with several other "coming soon" posts The Posh Bagel has scattered across the region. Taken together, the online listing and the developer’s site maps point to a retail pad at the northwest corner of Twelve Bridges Drive and Colonnade Drive.
What the Twelve Bridges Retail Center will be
City of Lincoln planning records describe the Twelve Bridges Retail Center as a multi-parcel commercial project spanning about 29.7 acres and slated for more than 245,000 square feet of retail across 14 buildings, according to project notice PLN24-00020. Marketing materials from developer Pappas Investments place the complex at the northwest corner of Twelve Bridges Drive and Colonnade Drive and highlight its close ties to planned housing and a new high school. The public environmental filing on the state CEQA portal outlines the project scope along with required mitigation measures.
What to expect from The Posh Bagel
The chain’s typical lineup features New York-style bagels, creative bagel sandwiches, house-made cream cheeses, specialty coffees and bubble teas, according to The Posh Bagel. The company has been steadily adding "coming soon" entries on its locations page, signaling a broader regional expansion that leans on compact bakery-cafes tucked into neighborhood shopping centers. Based on past openings, a Lincoln shop would likely lean into fast breakfast and lunch service aimed at commuters, students and nearby families.
Local context and what to watch
Lincoln already has specialty breakfast and bagel options, including Bagel & Bean not far from the Twelve Bridges address, so The Posh Bagel would be stepping into an active local scene rather than open territory. How well the new outpost performs will largely depend on parking, pickup logistics and how quickly nearby residential projects and the planned school fill in, all points highlighted in the developer’s materials. This story will be updated when The Posh Bagel or the developer confirms lease details or shares a timeline for opening.
