Einstein Bros Bagels

Have bagels and fruit delivered every Friday to our office, the wheat bagels are by far my favorite. The good thing about their bagels is that they are not too doughy and they are not hard either, they have that perfect balance. I have also eaten here outside of their deliveries, I love the spinach and bacon bagel sandwich, it is so good! I had not tried their coffee until recently since I usually try and stick with smaller, mom and pop stores, with that being said, it really wasn’t that bad for a big chain store coffee. It would not get me to switch from my small store approach but I can say this with certainty, it was much better than the green and white.

It’s hit or miss here. Today I waited 12 min for my bagel, and I got an Everything top and an Asiago bottom. Ew. Also got it in a bag even tho it was eat-​in. And they called a completely different name for me, but we figured it out when no one else claimed the order.
The place is a mess, they ran out of fruit, and the guy at the register was so high I couldn’t stop smiling in wonder at how he was holding it together. The staff means well and they’re trying but they’re all too hung over/​stoned/​dulled to make it work. Or maybe they’re just too few. The manager seems nice and was apologizing to everyone for everything. 3 stars just for the sheer entertainment value. I’ll definitely be back just to watch the show.
And for the guy in front of me in line, sorry about that Everything bagel bottom with your Asiago top. I bet that was gross.

Must have gone in on a bad day. There seemed to be a ton of confusion, and lots of people waiting on their orders.
They were all out of everything except for plain bagels, even for the guy that already paid for a wheat bagel (he really wasn’t impressed).
I ordered the southwest turkey sausage bagel sandwich. After waiting for 15minutes, I finally got my sandwich and left. Unfortunately, when I finally sat down to eat it, there was no sausage.
Oh well, like I said, must’ve been a bad day.

Busy place before work. Long lines but they mive quickly. I ordered the egg and cheese on a green chili bagel… but when I opened the package later it was a jalapeño bagel… not the same thing (nor what I ordered) but still tasty. I also ordered a white mocha which took forever to get. The cashier told the person to make it… he said in a minute… i waited… received my sandwich… waited… waited… i contemplated why I didn’t just stop in at the Starbucks at the end of the block instead… cashier asked him again and he finally started. It was a large white mocha. The guy was seriously reading instructions and his hands were shaking. Very unsure of himself. So just a word of caution. if you’re in a hurry order drip coffee only. I think management should put a person who knows what they are doing during rush hours. I watched him make my entire drink and it was good but seriously took a long time.

This location is very busy. Sometimes, the cleanliness is a hit or miss.
Most times the staff is friendly but I got a guy that was a bit of an ass the other day but I won’t hold it against the establishment at this point.
This is a another brand name so… everything is on the same level as the other locations.

This location has the most upbeat employees of any Einstein location I have ever been to. The service is just phenomenal. They always manage to make the guests laugh or smile. The food is good-​typical Einsteins.

Great prices, excellent specials and many low cal options. Good food for a really cheap price.

I’m in town for a conference that’s conveniently located at the Colorado Convention Center. After my mid-​morning session let out earlier than expected, I walked over to Einstein Bros for an early lunch. I came over yesterday after wandering around for food, and it was crowded. I ordered my food, grabbed my chips, and sat down while my food was being prepared. I got the honey-​glazed smoked salmon on an plain bagel, and it was very delicious. (While ordering, I was asked if I preferred the smoked lox instead as it’s more popular. Just an FYI). Today, it wasn’t crowded at all while I was there. I also ordered the same meal, this time with the onion bagel. I think I prefer the onion bagel. The space is clean, and the staff is very friendly. I think I may come back before I head back to New York. Too bad there’s no Einstein Bros in NYC.

Great food, great atmosphere! The staff is hilarious, they were cracking jokes and had me laughing. Yes it’s a fast food style restaurant so don’t expect a gourmet experience but either way, it’s a great choice!

Every staff member was friendly, courteous, and efficient. Food was great, drinks were great, and we enjoyed our late breakfast. I had an everything bagel w/​smoked salmon, water, and caramel macchiato w/​soy. Rest of the family also had bagels, with water or coffee drink. The bagel was so good, we all wanted another! Great job, Einsteins!

Amazing service, Great staff and fantastic food! They get an A plus in my book!

Great food, great coffee, a little pricey but that’s not anything you can control with a chain restaurant. The issue is service. They have good attitude but poor production efficiency. I’m enjoying my breakfast and watching the queue go out the door while others have paid and still haven’t received food. The tempers are rising this morning!

It’s your standard Einstein’s, lots of selections, great bagels, fresh bread. I like it’s convenience on the 16^th Street Mall. And I’m giving it 5 stars for the friendly staff, which I appreciate at fast food places. They really stand out in that regard… always greeting patrons, thanking them, and doing little extra things for good customers — a free coffee flavor, extra cream cheese, etc.

I don’t usually write reviews for fast food style restaurants, but I thought i’d make an exception. My husband and I ate here yesterday. I had the tuna and he had the turkey club. Both good, but it was the staff that is deserving of the good review.
Every time we’ve dined there, everyone has been so friendly and accomodating. I wanted a wheat bagel thin, and even though they were out, the cashier insisted that it wasn’t too much trouble to make a fresh batch. They were out of the chips we wanted, and another employee jumped up to refill the stock. He too insisted it was his pleasure to do so. The lady who delivered our food walked passed again to make sure it was delicious. I saw all of them like that with the other customers too.‘
I read a lot of Unilocal reviews, and there’s a lot of comments made about terrible service, which lets face it, there is alot of bad service out there. Its easy to forget to acknowledge people serving us that go above and beyond, but I think we need more of that! :)

I typically visit here on my way into work. I always love the soft, fresh bagels in the morning. The staff here has always impressed me for being a chain. One staff member always greets me by name, and I always get fast service with a smile. This embodies everything I want in a bagel joint.

The service at this Einstein store has always been poor at best. They are slow and some of them are full of attitude! Yesterday morning I wanted a bagel and coffee. I never ask for it toasted as that seem to be a real challenge for these people. I was third in line to pay, and there was no one working the cash register. We all had our orders except for some drink one lady had ordered. Yet no one came to the register to take our money. Even as we commented loudly that it would be nice if we could pay! I never got my cup for the coffee. I put my bagel back on the counter and left. I will never set foot into another Einstein Bros again.

You guys have the greatest hangover food. Thank you.

Hi Einstein Bagel. I am so sad that you are not here in Los Angeles. :(I am even more depressed since I have become so addicted to your vanilla hazelnut coffee.
Salmon Schmear:
YUM. I generally love fruit schmears but wow this one was really delicious. Perfectly salty with bits of yummy smoked salmon. It paired perfectly with my spinach and cheese bagel. YUM.
Vanilla Hazelnut Coffee:
this stuff is like crack in a cup. Such an incredible aroma and with a little cream and sugar. holy hell this stuff is amazing. I bought 6 bags of this before my flight to LA and it was soo worth it!
Please come visit me in LA.

Fairly cheap bagel place, I’ve never been to one before. I had the potato bagel and also an apple strudel bagel, with strawberry cream cheese on the side. They were both pretty good!
Bottomline: It was packed on a Thursday morning, but the lines went by quick.

These guys are a great stop — usually in the mornings for breakfast. I love bagels, they got a great selection. On this morning I just got their new Turkey Sausage Bagel on Honey Wheat — — one of their new bagel sandwich offerings that was less calories and fat. It was really good.
It gets really busy, long line in the morning, but it goes by fairly quick. The coffee was good, a few selections too.
Great location, and I liked the new low-​carb, low-​calorie breakfast sandwich offerings (2). I would have gone back for sure if I had the time, it fulfilled my morning dilemma.
