From eleven
Gourmet bagel sandwiches, built to order in Vernon
KALA makes the Okanagan's bagel sandwiches on bagels we bake ourselves in Vernon, BC — built to order from 11 AM, no assembly line, no sad deli case. It's the lunch move on Hwy 97.
A bagel sandwich is only as good as the bagel under it, so we start there: baked in-house, proper chew, never a bread roll with a hole. From eleven each day the lunch board takes over — sandwiches built when you order them, not before.
Driving through Vernon? Order ahead twenty minutes out and lunch is waiting when you pull off the highway. Locals do it on the way back to work; the line moves because the phones did the waiting.
