Rye bagel avocado eggwich
Rhea V.

Walking into this bagel deli is like walking into 1995 and I love it. It's one of the few bagel places in the DMV that has rye seeded bagels and half plain/half pumpernickel bagels. Honestly, these aren't my favorite bagels in the area but the sandwich fixings they put on them are what makes this a great place. Their bagels are more dense like a Montreal bagel so that is why I gave them 4 stars instead of 5. I am a fan of the eggwich sandwiches because the eggs are super fluffy and all of the ingredients are fresh. They are generous with the portions sizes so it's a very filling breakfast or lunch. Cream cheeses: they have a nice assortment of sweet and savory cream cheeses . Also, I like that they don't offer too many sweet bagel flavors. I'm a bagel classicist- plain, sesame, everything, rye, pumpernickel, cinnamon raisin and egg are my bagel pantheon. Other menu items: they offer focaccia sandwiches, deli sandwiches and baked pastries which all look good from what I observed from others orders. Ambiance: it's not a big place with lots of small banquettes and 4 top tables. It feels very retro 90s with the green and white floor and flat tambour. No one is hanging out with a laptop here which is nice. Most people get their brown bag order and immediately sit at a table to tuck in. The line can get long at busy times but it's worth it. Great place when you want to just have a yummy sandwich and think of simpler times.

Chesapeake will always have a spot in my heart as someone from McLean. It's an iconic spot and has been for my entire life. The bagels are always well made, but the prices have really increased in the past few years. It's really hard to get a bagel that has anything more than cream cheese on it for less than 7 dollars. Still a vibe and a nice spot though

Here's a review from a self-proclaimed bagel snob (have the Long Island background to back this up): The bagel itself was decently sized which I appreciate. There was a lot of egg which was good. Bacon was crispy and nice. Sadly the bagel lacked anything special. It was all just decent and plain. I will continue my search for a decent bagel in the DMV. So far it's been nothing but strike outs on this endeavor. Nevertheless I will persist.

This place knows how to do bagels right. They toast it to perfection and have so many options to choose from. I love the sausage, egg and onion on the garlic bagel. The amount of baked goods is insane, one of every flavor you can think of. The cashier and food preparers are also super kind. I really like this place and wish it was closer to me!

I finally found a an amazing bagel shop in McLean, Virginia!!! The staff are always very hard-working and pleasant when taking orders. There are so many different fresh bagels to choose from every day. Come check out Chesapeake bagel bakery and Mclean. You will not be disappointed; this place is an awesome find!

A staple of McLean. I've been enjoying bagels here for over 8 years. They have a wide selection of drinks, bagels and cream cheeses! I'm quite easy to please. All I need are delicious basic items and Chesapeake Bagel Bakery always delivers. Granted, I've never had a coffee or more intricate order here but I've always looked forward to grabbing a bagel, or 12, from Chesapeake when I return to my hometown. You can ask anyone who lives in or grew up in McLean and they'll tell you that Chesapeake Bagels are hard to beat.

Meh. Bagels are ok. Starbucks makes far better breakfast sandwiches. Pricey for what it was. Disappointed.

I stopped by about an hour before closing, which may have impacted my experience. By that time, a lot of the bagels were already sold out. That said, the menu was very extensive with tons of bagel sandwich options and other items. There's also some indoor seating, and they sell a variety of snacks, drinks, and bottled waters--almost like a small convenience store. This definitely seems like a great spot for a quick breakfast on the go. The staff was friendly and welcoming, which I appreciated. One suggestion I'd make is to invest in paper menus or QR code menus--the menu was a bit hard to read, especially with so many options. I ordered three onion bagels to go, along with a container of plain cream cheese and a smaller chive cream cheese. Unfortunately, the bagels were disappointing. They were pretty hard and didn't have much onion flavor at all. On the bright side, the cream cheese was amazing--both the plain and chive were super creamy and flavorful, easily the highlight of my visit. I'd be willing to give this place another try, but probably closer to opening hours in hopes of getting fresher bagels. I can see why people like it, and I think timing really matters here.

Summary. I eat lunch here and enjoy it. Just be nice to the people behind the counter…read more For some reason people that go to lunch here are rude to the people behind the counter and this must stop. I was there to pick up a sandwich for lunch and witnessed very entitled customers treat the staff disrespectfully. Unacceptable. These men and women wake up early and are there everyday with a smile and a positive attitude and people walk into their business and speak down to them. No. Not on my watch. If you eat here, order from here or ask anything of the people tha work here- they deserve respect. The food is great. The tuna, is real, and the sandwiches are hearty. They have a little dining room and lots to choose from and the workers behind the counter deserve your respect and support.

In a word OUTSTANDING. Truthfully, there aren't too many bagel places left out there anymore in the…read moreNoVA area and the ones that are still out there, only about 10% of them are decent, serving authentic, quality bagels and bagel sandwiches. THIS PLACE IS ONE OF THOSE TOP 10%-ers! * Conveniently located (even though I hateeeee that little gummed-up stretch of Main Streer in Fairfax!!) but the shop is on the little side strip out of the fray of the main retailers Ace Hardware and TJ Maxx. Lot parking is abundant for a quick in and out if you're grabbing to go. * SUPER FRIENDLY STAFF and FAST, EFFICIENT SERVICE - I went in around 9AM on a Sat - no long line - walked right up to the counter and ordered - sat at a table and my order was called about 10 minutes later. * It was bfast time and I ordered a bacon egg and cheese sando $8 on a lightly toasted ET bagel - delicious and they didn't skimp on any of the ingredients! The bagel was big, hearty and chewy. A perfect breakfast to go. * PRICES ARE VERY FAIR and I felt I got good value for what I paid. $13 basically for a bfast sando and a bottle of juice (drinks are always a rip-off - $3.50, half the cost of my sando but it is what it is...) * The inside of the restaurant itself is sorta small and cramped - as you walk in, the left side is the ordering side, the right side is the seating area with a good amount of tables and chairs - most importantly, they keep the place neat and clean which is a big deal to me. It's a little dark and drab in ambiance/decor and I could see it getting a bit chaotic if the place fills up and with long lines at the counter. On nice weather days, there are some outside tables. I don't come to this area of Fairfax all that often - just happened to be in the area that morning and literally searched for a bagel place on Yelp and hardly any came up. Fortunately I happened to be close by. When I'm in the area again AND happen to be hankerin' for a bagel sandwich, I'll most definitely come back here again. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS INDIE BAGEL SHOP IN DOWNTOWN FAIRFAX!
