    Blueberry bagel & large coffee
    Terri D.

    Cozy spot but packed with goodness. So much delectables at the counter and a full sandwich menu too! Came in for quick stop of bagel & coffee on brrr April morning - honestly better than Starbucks and cheaper!

    Weekends are made for lazy mornings and delicious omelettes. Today, we tried three new omelettes; the Greek omelette, the Western omelette, and the French omelette. The Greek omelette was filled with spinach and feta cheese. It was served with a side of tasty home fried potatoes. It was scrumptious. The French omelette included crispy fried onions, sautéed mushrooms and Swiss cheese. It was so good. It was also served with yummy home fried potatoes. The Western omelette included Canadian bacon, green onions, red and green pepper and cheddar cheese. It was so tasty. And, it also came with the same great home fried potatoes. We also ordered a gyro platter, for my granddaughter. She loved the meat. Instead of the pita, she put it on a bagel. : ) We also ordered an assortment of bagels, which were enjoyable too. Service was great. We ordered on the phone and it was ready for us, when we arrived. It was packaged well for the trip home. It is a bagel cafe with a comfortable ambiance and lots of choices. We usually order bagel sandwiches, but today we changed things up with the omelettes, and I am really glad we did. Service was great.

    Love, love, love bagel cafe. The food coming out of here is always delicious and consistent. Ever since the first time my fiancée brought me, I've loved the bagel sandwiches here. My go to is normally the sausage, egg and cheese but I've also done bacon, egg and cheese. You can't go wrong with any of the bagel options. The jalapeño, cheddar cheese, everything bagel, plain, onion, etc all go well on a sandwich. For just a bagel and some cream cheese, the chocolate and blueberry bagels are amazing. The omelettes are also very good and you can't go wrong with any of them. The staff here are friendly and helpful. The same guy has been working the register for years now. I'm not sure if he's the owner or manager or what, but he's always a friendly face to greet us! The food also comes out fairly quickly. The ambiance is casual and reminiscent of a little bagel shop in NYC. There's plenty of seating both inside and outside (weather permitting).

    This place SLAPS (slang for hits the spot )! I've been coming here for years and I've never had a bad experience. The only thing that sucks about this place is the tremendous wait on weekends. Everything is amazing and made fresh including their bagels. My go tos are the bagel sandwiches and omelets. I always like to get their chocolate bagel for little snack or dessert. Overall highly recommend this spot. There's parking out front, but seating is hard to get. The inside is fairly tiny and it's not great for groups.

    Bright cute shop. I had very nice and very quick service. Was not super busy. I think it's a bit overpriced for what it is. The bagel and cc were decent enough. Consistency of the bagel was good. I'm a tourist in these parts so not sure if there's better in the area.

    Bacon egg and cheese on everything bagel and coffee

    I don't recommend going on the weekend, very busy, in fact the first time I went was on a Saturday, it was so packed that I could barely see the selection, but judging from the crowd I knew I wanted to come back. So I went during the week for breakfast, still busy but not super packed. Lots of bagels to choose from. I purchased strawberry, blueberry, and chocolate chip to bring home. All were very good, strawberry my favorite of the 3. I got a breakfast sandwich and coffee to eat, coffee very good, sandwich was good, Service was great, everyone kind and helpful. Spacious and lots of seating when not super packed. I will definitely go again.

    Stopped by the Bagel Shop in downtown Herndon on Nov' 23. I had the Ham and Cheese on Everything Bagel. Sat outside and enjoyed it. Taste was very good, everything bagel had large salt which was just perfect. The bagel sandwich as a whole, it can be viewed as a treatise to an ideal breakfast incorporating bagel, cheese, and ham. That is, a near-perfect combination of protein and healthiness for a first meal of the day. I enjoyed it and ate it slowly and languorously. Savored each bite. Actually tasted the meat (ham or turkey, both are good!), and the bagel, and the salt and seasoning, and even the cheese. This is how an ideal bagel sandwich is meant to be eaten / enjoyed! Savor each bite as if it were the last. This is what makes it worthy to pay out of pocket for a breakfast, especially one you could have easily cooked up yourself! Also I purchased a 6-pack of bagels (everything, have to try other flavors) as well as some cream cheese spreads (chocolate chip and cinnamon something). Liked the CC spread but it's a bit too sweet / sugary for me. Still great tasting. Not sure of the nutritional content of the bagels, but the everything bagel is pretty spot on. I usually don't like everything bagels, so when a shop does it right and you start liking everything bagel, that's when you know they onto something. Overall, awesome breakfast spot in downtown Herndon. I live relatively close by, so I'll likely be back again. Looking forward to it!

    Crowded inside
    Jay P.

    Below average, honestly. The bagels are subpar (Bobby's Bagels are better), and I would go as far as saying they aren't much different Einstein bagels. The space is nice but it's so crowded most times it becomes a bit suffocating; I believe the overflow of people might play a role in the poorer quality food. The service, too is okay. The excess of people might be another reason why they aren't as friendly.

    I was only going to give this place four stars because it is not super high-end, but the more I…read morethought about it, the more they truly deserve five stars for the experience that we had. It was super packed on a town center concert night. Found two seats at the bar and were served right away. Bartender was extremely helpful and recommending a couple glasses of wine, which were spot on, a little pricey, but at least they were good. I had a Riesling and my companion had a Chardonnay. Ordered some type of tuna appetizer and it was awesome. Also ordered the fried zucchini sticks, but they were mediocre. Then we got a shrimp scampi type entrée and shared it, and it was excellent.

Overall, the appetizer portions are VERY small. For the main entrees, we got SPICY SAUSAGE PIZZA, BRAISED PORK PAPPARDELLE, CAMPANELLE, CABERNET BURGER, ATLANTIC SALMON, and RAINBOW TROUT. -Spicy Sausage Pizza: it was a spicy sausage pizza with some fancy cheese grated on top. -Braised Pork Pappardelle: The noodles were al dente and there was a tomato based sauce. -Campanelle: the white sauce was a little bland. The noodles were al dente. -Cabernet Burger: the patty was very flavorful and juicy. Would recommend this. It came with fries. -Atlantic Salmon: The salmon was topped with a tomato sauce, personally I would have prefer no tomato sauce as it really overpowers the salmon flavor. Under the salmon was some lettuce. -Rainbow trout: this does not come with a sauce on top like the salmon and so is able to maintain a bit of crisp to the skin. Overall, all the food we had here was mediocre. Nothing stood out. The location and ambiance is great, so it's nice for a get together, not for foodies - not recommended.

I've also tried their pesto poulet sandwich (baguette, pesto chicken, tomato, green pepper, and mozzarella cheese) and it was super yum! The chocolate hazelnut pastry is a perfect companion for the coffee, and you can ask for your pastry to be warmed up, which is even better.

Figured I'd stop in for a bacon egg and cheese bagel sandwich and an OJ for a hearty breakfast hankerin'. The place had been renovated since my last pre-covid visit - much needed - and was nicely done up, clean and neat with plenty of table seating and a nice ambiance. I was grabbing to go - order taker was friendly and pleasant and my sandwich was made quickly. The rub for me though was how skimpy and anemic the bfast sandwich was! I took a pic of my sandwich and I'm sorry I didn't take the picture with something to show scale. First and foremost - Einstein bagels have gotten significantly smaller in all around size. What the HELL happened?? Dudes - you aren't fooling anyone with your version of shrinkflation! Laughable, the size of their bagels! Second - to add insult to injury - the bacon, egg and cheese portions in the bagel sando were skimpy as all get out! THIN SLIVERS OF EACH. Check out my photo. I will say that they do ask you if you want 1 or 2 eggs in your BEC sandwich - yesssss I chose 1 egg but ASSumed that 1 egg would be plenty enough. I mean "1 egg" is never really 1 egg, right?!!! WRONGGGGGGG. My reaction to that silly "1 or 2 eggs?" question is - c'mon Einstein - don't ask - just put a decent portion of eggs in the sandwich - it all comes out in the wash and you make your profit whether it's 1 or 2 eggs if you do it right and train your workers. (Anyway, with your shrinkflation-ed bagels, you should be able to afford to put more BEC in the sandwich and still maintain the illusion that the sando is stuffed to the gills. lol.) #eyeroll My goodness - dare I say - McDonald's makes a better and heartier bfast sando (for better value) than this place. First time back since pre-covid and sadly my last. With even fast casual joints fighting for every dollar in consumers' pockets, Einstein you need to show us decent value for our money - this ain't it. BIG RIP OFF AND NOT WORTH THE PRICE THEY CHARGE.
