Einstein Brothers Bagel

I’m not a huge bagel fan but once in a while I like an egg and cheese on a bagel and their version is pretty good. They also have very good (but expensive) muffins with a large crumbly topping and really excellent iced coffee. I would be a regular here if there was better parking nearby.

Although I love the food and bagels, this location is a waste of time. Their efficiency and timeliness are horrible. Be prepared to wait up to 15 minutes in a short line, and then another 10 minutes for your bagel. Today, I had to ask one of the food preparers to change his gloves after I saw him push trash down into the trash can with his gloved hands and then return to food preparation without changing his gloves. Eww!

Their seasonal roasts are worth trying. Bring your own coffee mug and the price is for a «refill» which is cheaper. And the Asiago bagel with schmear… heaven. There is always a table free which is better than many of the coffee shops near campus. Einsteins doesn’t have the problem of «camping» by students and using up table space as many coffee shops do. I’m not sure why that is. But if it means I get to sit down after I purchase breakfast, you have my patronage, Einstein’s.

I absolutely love Einsteins and usually choose them over the other chains. This particular store has been very disappointing the last two times I went. The first time was just super slow service. It was like 4 people in line brought them to a crashing halt. And they were out of many of their bagels. The second time they were out of even more flavors and this was slowing down the line due to customers asking for their favorite flavors and the answer being they are all out. I asked for a apple cinnamon bagel with honey almond schmear and my boyfriend got two both with strawberry schmear. We had to take it to go because they were going so slow and I discovered once we left that they had given me strawberry as well. Super disappointing for a chain that I like so much. Probably won’t come back very much anymore.

Stopped in on a Saturday morning for a cup of coffee. The space was very roomy and would be nice for a group meet up or study session. They weren’t too busy but still kept fresh hot coffee which was super important for my morning to start off right. They had a few nice outdoor tables as well. Nice spot to grab a coffee or bagel.

This location is spacious and great to study at during the summer. The service is always top notch. My favorite is the everything bagel toasted with onion and choice smear it’s one if the best bagels I’ve ever bitten into. The coffee here is also excellent, but it is extremely hot. They always have vanilla or hazelnut flavored coffee, which is my favorite.
Free wifi and outdoor seating make it a great place for summer sun and studying.

This is a great place for bagels. I used to live in the apartment building right above it and would come down every morning to grab my usual order. The staff here has always been friendly and nice.

This is a pretty good place to grab breakfast. It’s a chain and they are all the same. They have bagels and breakfast sandwiches. The bagels are good but get there early before they sell out of the good kinds. The prices are reasonable. The staff is always very friendly and they never messed up an order. There isn’t a lot of seating so don’t count on getting a table to do a crossword while you eat breakfast. You will most likely end up taking it to go. However, during the warm months, they do have outdoor seating available and it is nice to be able to sit outside and enjoy breakfast on a cool morning. I would recommend coming here if you’re in the mood for good bagels.

It’s a typical franchise. The food is exactly the same at any other einstein’s. Staff is friendly. Sometimes it’s a bit crowded. I like to call in advance to place my order so that they will have it ready when I come in and pick it up. I give service a five star. The food is mediocre and a «safe» choice.

I love this place and the bagels… the owner is a great guy… we live in Arkansas and when we visit we always stop because we know what we are gonna get. Love them bagels…

I have nothing but Love for Einstein’s Bros Bagels. I used to get breakfast every morning here with my friends. They were always well stocked and their Bagels always tasted fresh. After a few months all the employees knew me by name and started my order when I walked in the door. That’s what I call good service! I would get the occasional comp if anything went wrong. I always felt very welcome.

Einsteins makes great bagels and baked goods. That’s the good news. The bad news: everything else in the restaurant is mediocre.
Their bagels are good, but they aren’t cheap. a simple bagel is $.99, which is reasonable. However, their «signature bagels» cost around $ 2.50. Yep, that’s two-​fifty for a bagel. Cream cheese will cost you extra! I once ordered a bagel sandwich with sausage, bacon, cheese, and eggs and it cost $ 8.00. It tasted good, but not $ 8.00 worth of good. I have tried various lunch salads etc, and all were average. The real problem with Einstein’s is the service. They always mess up my order. Then of course when I try to get it fixed the employees become argumentative. You made the mistake, don’t act like I’m inconveniencing you!
The following is an update:
It appears that the service issues have been resolved. I’ve noticed the two particularly confrontational women are gone and their replacements are much more competent. The Einstein’s staff members have not made any errors regarding my order for over a year now. It seems they have new management. The food is still good, but be weary about ordering outside of the comfort zone. It’s a bagel joint… stick to the bagels and coffee!
Strange: Einstein’s has a display case filled with bagels. Strangely, when the bagels in the display have all sold out, the employees don’t always refill them. Everyone knows about this little quirk, so customers always have to ask, «Hey, are there any blueberry bagels left in the back?» Then of course the staff member has to go and check and ultimately everyone in line just ends up waiting longer.
Despite my petty complaints about the expensive egg sandwiches, and the staff’s unwillingness to replenish the display case — I have to admit that Einstein’s really is a fantastic little restaurant. I visit regularly, and since the change-​of-​staff that occurred around 2013/​2014, I have always received excellent customer service and satisfaction. Keep it up!

The bagels were only so-​so, but the pumpkin cream cheese is SO good!

Pretty quick compared to the Einsteins in Indy. They also have the pretzel bagel which I don’t find everywhere. Love the bagels here!

Slow service. Guy got my ice coffee from the regular machines so it wasn’t even a real ice coffee. Bagel is barely toasted
