Brick Lane Bagel Shop E1
Discover one of London's most famous foodie rivalries with this hand-drawn illustration featuring Beigel Shop and Beigel Bake, created by London illustrator Jitesh Patel.
Every illustration begins as a pen drawing before being carefully finished digitally in my signature style. Inspired by London's architecture, independent businesses and neighbourhoods, this artwork captures the character and history of two of Brick Lane's most iconic bakeries.
Standing just a few doors apart, Beigel Shop and Beigel Bake have become legendary destinations for bagel lovers visiting East London. Beigel Shop, recognised by its bright yellow storefront, has been serving traditional bagels since 1855, while Beigel Bake has become famous for its 24-hour service and legendary salt beef bagels. Together, these neighbouring bakeries have become an essential part of Brick Lane's food culture, welcoming generations of Londoners and visitors from around the world.
Whether you have a favourite, enjoy comparing the two, or simply love exploring London's vibrant food scene, this illustration celebrates one of the capital's most recognisable culinary landmarks.
A thoughtful gift for London lovers, food enthusiasts and anyone with fond memories of Brick Lane's famous bagel shops.
