Here at Heidi’s
Heidi Bendiksen Naples and Steve Naples came to Colorado from the neighborhood of Bay Ridge in Brooklyn, New York in 1990. While Denver was a great place to feed their spirit, finding great bagels and good sandwich shops was a whole different story. Heidi's Brooklyn Deli started as a bagel and ice cream store in a small 1400 sq ft space in a 100-year-old building in the Highlands neighborhood of Denver, Colorado. "Heidi's Bagels and Ice Cream" later named "Heidi's Brooklyn Deli" was opened September 9, 1994.
With a lot of hard work and a little luck, Heidi's Brooklyn Deli, by 1997, grew from a 1400 sq. ft. shop, selling only bagels and ice cream and a few sandwiches to a 3500 sq. ft., full deli selling over 35 of the best sandwiches around, all on FRESH BREAD, BAKED DAILY IN-HOUSE, salads, soups, wraps, smoothies, desserts, breakfast and of course, daily fresh baked bagels. In May of 1999, Steve and Heidi opened the second Heidi's Brooklyn Deli in the northern suburb of Denver called Northglenn. The first franchise location opened in March of 2005 south of Denver in Lone Tree, Colorado.
Today, Jenee and Juliana, the daughters of Steve and Heidi, have taken the helm. Celebrating 30+ years in business, Heidi’s Brooklyn Deli now has 8 corporate locations and 5 franchises open nationally. Expansion plans are in the works with a new prototype in development.
The future of Heidi's Brooklyn Deli is very bright with the second-generation choosing to keep their visions and goals in line with their social and ethical beliefs. To this day, every location bakes their bread from scratch every day! Additionally, by electing to pursue partnerships with family owned companies such as Perdue/Harvestland Poultry, Old World Provisions, Fra'Mani
Meats and Rumiano Cheese Company , Heidi’s sources the highest-quality, natural products available. The products are nitrate and nitrite free, hormone and antibiotic free, grass fed, humanely raised and non-GMO, whenever possible.
With the mentorship of their mother Heidi, Jenee and Juliana, along with their incredible staff work hard every day to create a memorable experience offering the highest-quality products and neighborly service to their patrons.
Every day is ‘A Labor of Love.’
