    Half Dozen Bagels Only

    Great place to grab a bagel. The staff is friendly and welcoming. They have indoor and outdoor tables depending on your preferences. The mornings are very busy compared to the afternoon.

    Destany K.

    The service was excellent. I observed the cashier and other employees being friendly and respectful to each customer that came in. Upon taking my order, the worker was respectful and let me take my time looking at the menu. They also answered any questions I had. The price for a bacon, tomato and egg bagel was $9. When it arrived, I was a bit surprised as it was smaller than I had expected (the pictures make it look larger). The taste was OK, but there were some spots where the egg tasted bad or old. There wasn't much bacon or egg and it certainly didn't represent the picture displayed on the menu. The sauce was a bit spicy, and only seemed to be put on one side. Overall 3 stars for the food itself and 5 stars for the customer service.

    Tasty Turkey Sandwich with extra spinach, no lettuce and sub veggie schmear.

    The Tasty Turkey sandwich toasted with extra spinach and no lettuce is my Holy Grail sandwich. This location makes it perfect! Although the store is usually busy, they are helpful and nice.

    I only came for some bagels, only wanted the blueberry and raisin bagel. Nothing else and it hit the spot. I didn't buy the honey almond from here because Walmart sells the same one but bigger size for cheaper! There was a small line but went by fast. Friendly service too.

    6-CHEESE bagel w/cream cheese smear
    Scott T.

    for years I went to Einstein Brother's every Sunday after finishing the New York Times crossword puzzle (in ink) for an everything bagel with lox. eventually, I switched my bagel of choice to jalapeño-cheese, toasted. was in the neighborhood again with a hankering for one of those savory doughnuts so I stopped in to grab something to eat. place was pretty crowded and the service was slow but nobody should be in that big a hurry on a weekend. it's time to stop and smell the cream cheese, right ??? the bagels were good but I would be less than honest if I said they satisfied my craving. after visiting Russ and Daughters in NYC a couple of summers ago, nothing else really compares. question: why do ALL the bagels spots around these parts cut their red onions in huge, thick slices? put down the machete (or more likely the weed whacker) and invest is a slicer for god's sake. it'll save on food costs, the flavor will still be there, and customers won't be burping those nasty, raw onion burps the rest of the day ...

    Applewood Bacon & Cheddar Egg Sandwich with Twice Baked Hash brown.
    Frances D.

    This is my (First Time) ordering online with this Einstein Bros. Bagels. I placed my online order on the Door Dash App on my Apple IPhone XR for my breakfast meal today. I wanted to eat a healthy and delicious breakfast. The Einstein Bros. Bagels fits this description perfectly! The Einstein Bros. Bagels bakes their Bagels with all types of flavors and their bagels are always very fresh every morning. That is great for me their new customer to know. I ordered (5 Items). These items are as follows: 1 x Applewood Bacon and Cheddar Egg Sandwich. The price is $11.32. My choice was the (2 Cage Free Eggs, Applewood Smoked Bacon on a Plain Bagel and one Twice Baked Hash Browns) with melted Cheddar Cheese filled inside. I also ordered one package of the KETTLE Brand Potato Chips with the Sea Salt. The price is $2.26. Then I ordered a beverage . The Cold Brew in the Vanilla flavor in the (small size) cup. The price is $5.55. For my desserts: I ordered 2 Pastries. The first one was the Strawberry & Cream Strudel. The price is $3.77. My second dessert is the Apple Pie Pastry. The price is $3.52. The subtotal was $26.42. The Delivery Fee was $7.99. Since I have a Dash Pass Membership with Door Dash, my delivery fee was waived and there was no charge. This is a really high delivery fee. The Expanded Range Fee was $1.49. The Service Fee was $1.32. The Estimated Tax was $1.12. I also received a $5.00 Discount off of my total Einstein Bros. Bagels Order yesterday. The Dasher Tip I had chosen for Carlos was $6.00.My total bill was $31.35. My order arrived on time from Carlos my dasher driver to my home. I had to reheat my breakfast bagel and the two pastries. Every thing that I ate yesterday was very flavorful. These 2 desserts the Strawberry & Creme Strudel and the Apple Pie Pastry was very yummy! I received excellent customer service from the Door Dash Delivery Company. I highly recommend the Einstein Bros. Bagels Shop.

    Ashley and team awesome customer service. She was so busy but still gave respect and attention to each and every customer. I appreciate her still smiling while being short staffed or just extremely busy. I love their cheddar jalapeño bagels with plain cream cheese and today I tried it with brisket. I don't like eggs so I had it with plain cream cheese, the cheddar and brisket (it was a little salty but still good). Place is always clean and always has a line but worth the wait. I also had some of their delicious freshly squeezed orange juice and a wonderful chai tea latte.

    Single Bagel with Shmear
    Suzzy R.

    Honestly, we pay $1.99 extra for smear and this is how the bagel looks? $1.99!!!! Not to mention, driving out of my way for a delicious bagel. Either don't charge so much or put a decent amount on the bagel. It's the 3rd time this happens. I had not gone in a while because of last time but I decided to try it 1 more time. The bagels are amazing.

    Egg and cheese. No bacon. In the economy you can't afford to make orders wrong if people are spending so much money for a bagel.

    Do they have alternative milks for their coffee drinks?

    I wish they did, but all they offer is regular milk or cream. Maybe they will consider almond milk or soy milk as additional options for those of us sensitive to dairy products.

    Was wondering what the situation there is at the Oceanside Einstein Bagels, as far as take out, under the gov't business closure? Are there any options to eat onsite at all, like on the patio, or is the entire space inside & out closed to dining?

    As per requirements, there is no dining inside or outside. You can order your food to go.

Ended up waiting about 30 minutes and ended up sitting at the counter for a party of three. On the weekends, the counters are still part of being seated by the host. We decided to try the gluten-free pancakes with a side of eggs. All the food tasted delicious. In fact, all the food that we saw walking out of the kitchen looked incredible as well. Hoping to go back to try the different dishes, especially the biscuits, which obviously are not gluten-free. Poor husband, he'll just have to watch us eat the yummy biscuits!

She was right! I got the Stratford Scramble and a mocha latte with oat milk. The scramble was a HUGE portion and delicious. Did it completely wow me? No, but I definitely enjoyed it! The mocha latte was SO good. Nuzz got the Chilaquiles Jalisco and his first ever nitro cold brew. He loved both! The chilaquiles weren't too spicy, and he said the nitro was different from any cold brew he's had before and almost creamy. But the COFFEE CAKE!!

When you walk in, you can grab your own menu, find an open table, and once you decide what you'd like, you place your order and receive a number. The fountain drinks, coffee, and tea are self-serve, which makes everything simple and convenient. Our visit was great! I ordered the chilaquiles, and they were delicious--flavorful but not spicy. My kids ordered chicken and fries, while my daughter got a hamburger, which she really enjoyed. Another thing I liked is that since you pay when you order, once you're finished eating, you can simply leave without having to wait for the check. I also want to give a special thank you to Tiffany, the manager. I accidentally forgot my wallet, and thankfully someone turned it in. Tiffany was extremely helpful and made sure I was able to get it back. I truly appreciate her and the staff at Stratford! Overall, I'm very pleased with the location, the food, and especially the customer service. My family and I will definitely be going back!!

I also look forward to wandering through their gift area every time, where they stock unique jewelry, candles, fragrance rollerballs and 'clean' nail polish, plants and pots, kids' merchandise, t-shirts, and other cute stuff. I always buy something extra (and special) when I come. Their coffee bar is open, as is the general space, and there is plenty of seating outside in front and in back. You can watch the baristas make your drink and peep the beautiful Italian espresso machine and lovely bouquet of dried flowers by the bar while doing so. They bring their food out to you and when your espresso drink is ready they set it on the bar for you to pick up. Definitely a place to hang vs. grabbing a quick drink and rushing off about your day. I always want to stay and catch up with friends or bring my laptop to do some work, and they never make me feel rushed. Truly one of my favorite coffee shops in North County and in SD in general. (There is another high quality coffee shop in Oceanside that has incredible coffee and pastries--I won't mention the name--but I sometimes sense an attitude from the staff there, and that is a bit of a turnoff.) Go to Communal...you will not regret it!

Our servers name was Monse I believe and she was excellent. We had mimosas, an americano, lobster thermidor with cheese grits, and the steak and eggs.

The steak was overcooked so it wasn't doing it for me. Overall I'd say the food is pretty good for being a hotel restaurant I would dine again. The only thing with sitting outside is we saw the occasional transient person threatening patrons.

What's left are a few à la carte selections that were more expensive and not prepared as well as they were when we went previously, which was a couple years ago. What's super annoying is that the menu change still isn't reflected online, so we had no idea until we sat down. The avocado toast was burnt, potatoes were flavorless and unevenly cooked, and the "poached" eggs were hard in the middle. Prices are higher, service is slow, and overall it just feels like a place that exists now purely to gouge tourists in Oceanside. We won't be going back.
