Karen Powell loves bagels and loves the St. Pete Beach community even more.

So with her husband, she opened the hot new Tiki Bagel a blending of flown-in New York bagels and Hawaiian flair in this coastal town that's still rebounding from last year's brutal storm season.

"This is the slowest this beach has been probably in 10, 15 years," says Powell. "So we'd love to see some more customers come in from Tampa and the surrounding areas. Give them a good experience, some great food, and have them leave happy."

At Tiki Bagel (455 75th Ave, St. Pete Beach), you can enjoy a classic bacon, egg & cheese, plus an array of homemade cream cheese "schmears."
