Imagine the extra-human effort required to schlep coffee all the way from the PNW ... the sled dogs, the gallopin ponies, the incredible perseverance of the couriers through forests and over mountains, rivers, and plains, ...
There was a bit this morning about how in the UK they're starting to label "food miles," so people can be aware of how far their food has come (and how many planes, ships, trucks, emitted massive amounts of CO2 to get it to them). Here we proudly boast of it (I'm assuming this is a national ad meant to impress people in NY and FL and wherever else).
noah's bagels is a west coast only chain. wash, ore, and cal are the only places it is located.
see, it's a joke. about being a regional company that provides at least one food product (bagels) which are presumed to be specific to another region and another food (coffee) that is commonly associated with the local regional.
it's a joke about regionalism that is of regionalism.
and now all of you can "um i got it but blah blah blah" even though everything you've posted suggests you didn't get it. and presumed they were serious.
i'm not saying it is funny.
oh and saying "what does ___ mean anyway" doesn't make you sound smart if the thing you are asking about is an actual word or an actual thing that you could look up yourself. say on the damn internet.
Touche, chuckles. I freely admit that I didn't get it, as I don't know or care about Noah's, and it's not really funny. My bad.
I agree wholeheartedly with your last paragraph, especially as regards a phrase made up of two very common English words. Not too hard to figure out. Whether it's true or not, well, that's another issue entirely.
I'm from the East Coast and I still like Noah's Bagels despite their ad copy. They have saved my bacon (haw) many times by providing me with fresh bagels for meetings at 6:30 in the morning. The punk rockers and massage therapy students who work there are always nice and efficient.
The massage therapy student quit (it was me) and I have to say that Noahs' marketing is awfully stupid. From the vaguely pornoriffic "Jack Frost Nipping At Your Nosh" winter t-shirt slogans to the "wake up calling" (?!) egg sandwich pins we were made to wear as "flair" on our aprons... I loved my regulars, loved being a part of the C Hill community, but definitely did not love Corporate. God save the good people who still work at the Broadway location. (Please never ask what kinds of cream cheese we have. The list is on the fucking menu and all the cream cheeses are located in the refrigerated deli case by the back wall.)

Are they implying someone grows coffee beans in the PNW?
Yeah because all those people in Orting keep on growing them beans.
What the fuck is "Artisan-Roasted" anyways? Someone's shovelling beans into a kiln?
I wonder how much being an Artisan pays these days. Seems to be an increased demand...
BTW, this post is Artisan-typed. It's delicious.

Wow, you really got them there, Annie.....NEXT!

No doubt schlepped by a couple of goyims with a chaleria for a boss. Whoever wrote the copy for this ad must be a real schmendrick.

it's esppeeecially ridiculous when you consider that they ONLY have locations in CA, OR, and WA...
##hangs head in shame on reading chuckles' post.##
Noah's sucks, but where else can you get bagels?
As if anyone in New York would take a second bite of a Noah's bagel. Meh.
Good bagels can be had at the Bagel Oasis on NE 65th in Ravenna, about 22nd Ave.

Noah's Bagels are better than almost any other bagel on the West Coast, which is really more of a condemnation of West Coast bagels, but still.
They have H&H bagels overnighted from NYC at that little coffee shop (sorry I forget the name) on the north side of Madison in Madison Valley.
Think Ben. What's the name of the place where you can get H&H bagels in Seattle. Think.
My Coffee House at 2818 E. Madison Street!
See you all there!
Noah's, like Einstein's and Boston Market(!) is owned by ENBC, a MacDonald's subsidiary. Identical ad copy is generally used in both bagel chains.
