This Einstein Bagels is in a really nice location with easy access no matter which direction you're coming from, which makes it an easy stop when the area is busy. You can tell they know what Sunday mornings are like because they definitely staff for it. There were at least eight employees visible and possibly more in the back, so they seemed prepared for the rush. The cashiers were greeting people as they walked in, which was nice, and the staff making food were hustling and staying on top of orders instead of letting things back up. The restaurant itself has plenty of seating, so finding a table was easy even during a busier time. We split the Santa Fe egg sandwich and while the serving size felt a little small, it was good. I also grabbed a cold brew, which hit the spot. Overall, solid experience with friendly staff and good food. I would come back. read more

This location is well placed in the valley and close to the freeway in major cross street. It's easy to get to this location which makes it super convenient. The interior is nice and well maintained. They are of course very busy usually which is understandable. Today I got my birthday sandwich with a cold brew. My sandwich wasn't made as I ordered it but they made it right and then some. Great customer service and resolution. It also tasted very good. I love how they make their eggs in front of you so you can see what they're doing and how everything is made. They also have a wide variety of bagel flavors and smears along with some pretty cute cookies and desserts. read more

I ordered on the app and got an ancient grain bagel and a bacon, avocado, and tomato egg bagel sandwich. It was ready when I got there and I took it home to eat. There's plenty of seating inside.and it looked clean. Both bagels were pretty good, standard Einstein bagel experience. read more

I always order online! They always say hello or good morning when I walk in and food is always ready! Best savory bagel: Hands down is the toasted Spinach Florentine bagel with Garden Veggie Shmear...chef's kiss! The flavor is unmatched, and the texture is perfect ! Best sweet bagel: The Maple French Toast bagel toasted with plain shmear is delicious every time! I've also tried the Cinnamon Sugar bagel with strawberry shmear: Flavor combo was on point, but the texture of the bagel itself was a little bit tougher than the other bagels! The texture is more of a traditional bagel and I just wasn't a fan! The strawberry shmear though.... I'm definitely trying it on the Maple French Toast bagel next time because that's about to be a power couple. Six Cheese bagel + Asiago bagel with Chive & Onion shmear were solid choices! Flavorful, cheesy, and dependable. Garden Avocado Egg sandwich: Eh...mid! Twice Baked Hasbrown is also mid! I would not get either of these again! I also had a Dragonfruit Lemom Drop so much ice! I wish there was a place on the app where you could ask for light ice! The drink was ok! Bottom line: the bagels slap, the shmears know what they're doing, and I'Il happily keep eating my way through the menu. read more

Much better experience at this location than our last time at a different one. The young man helping me was very nice and offered great service. The restaurant was clean and stocked and looked cool with its decor. The food, that was the thing, everything was good with no issues. I had the Texas brisket (sorry, no pics) and my girlfriend had the Country Bagels and gravy egg sandwich (again, no pics... we were hungry) and both were awesome. The twice baked hash browns are always a good addition and they have new lemonades with flavors and we tried the dragon fruit lemon drop one, AWESOME but a little sweet. All in all a great visit, saved the day for us with Einstein Bros! read more

I've been to this Einstein's many times when I used to live over here but have since moved. I've always been fine with it, nothing special. But this time (it's been about a year), I used my birthday reward (free sandwich using the app!), and I was actually very impressed! Mobile order was quick and easy, was instantly greeted, and my sandwich/ coffee was delicious!! Didn't have to add any sugar or sauces or anything, it was actually one of the best sandwiches ever. Nice job Einstein's staff at this location!! read more

I came in on a Saturday morning around noon and it was pretty busy, but that is usually how it is for any Einstein bagel location on the weekends. The staff was generally friendly and I got my food and drink within 10 minutes. I ordered the Asiago bagel with onion and chive cream cheese. It was delicious! Perfectly toasted and cut and just the right amount of cream cheese. I also ordered the frozen chocolate coffee which was soooo goood. I actually prefer it to Starbucks Frappuccinos. They had limited outdoor seating but lots of indoor seating. Because it was busy, it was a bit loud in the store but nothing unmanageable. read more

This was a new try. I believe it's a jalapeño cheese bagel with sausage. I'm not sure but it was delicious. Of course, I had to wash it down with their lemonade. Staff was great and they held the hair this time. lol read more

Been to quite a few Einstein Bros bagel shops over the years. Mostly found something lacking, but still a great product at a great price. This location has great staff, friendly, and efficient. Greets every customer and all orders are efficiently processed. One more thing, always extremely clean. Great job guys. read more

These stars go out to Serenity! She was such a nice human! She services with a smile and have a great attitude. I had the egg white on a 3 cheese bagel along w/ 2 French toast bagels. One of the employees gave me 4 French toast bagels which of course, was not my order, but I didn't notice until I was already pulled off and driving as I reached into the bag to nibble. I had to turn around, after opening my bag to discover that the order was not mine as I was missing my egg white bacon bagel and that they gave me 2 extra bagels that I did not order. Upon my drive back, I approached the counter, letting another employee know that they gave me someone else's order and the guy whom I was speaking with, looked at me as if, I were from out of space Thankfully Serenity looked over seeing me speaking with the gentlemen peer, bringing my correct order over to me. It's like she knew I'd return Thanks to Serenity, my stars go out to her as she, deserves a huge raise and a Month off. My egg white with bacon bagel was perfect, still hot and tasted freshly made. I probably returned just in time after they made it. Since I'm a member of the rewards program, Serenity also noticed that, I was to receive a free drink. She made my drink just right!!! KUDDOS to employees who care as Serenity did! All locations need employees like her. Thank you There's plenty of parking onsite read more

Ordered a cheddar jalapeño bagel with regular cream cheese spread, and it was delicious. No complaints.

Ordered on their app two chocolate chip bagels nothing done to them. Drove all the way home to find out they gave me two cinnamon bagels. Clearly says on the receipt on the bag two choc chip bagels. So really not sure how they mess that up. Had to drive all the way back to get them replaced. And all I got was an "ooops". Be cautious when ordering on their app. read more

Was craving a salmon bagel so I stopped into Einstein. They're a staple, they're close, and they had exactly what I wanted. I ordered the Nova Lox on an everything bagel and a vanilla cream cold brew and it was divine! The salmon wasn't overly fishy but had a nice smoked flavor. The red onion was crispy and fresh and the capers added an out of this world salty, briny kick. The cold brew was smooth, lightly sweet, and very bold, a perfect compliment to the bagel. They were a bit busy when I stopped in despite being later in the day but all the employees were very polite and friendly, keeping up with online orders and the lunch rush just fine. I don't often stop in at Einstein's but they're going to be a new addition to my regular places while I'm on this salmon bagel kick for sure! read more

I hesitated going here and was going to try another bagel shop but this was closest to me. It was busy and the workers were friendly. They kind of rush the line so you should know what you want as the line moves quickly. The bagel selections were plentiful on a Saturday morning and they were fresh. I ordered the bakers dozen, 2 breakfast sandwiches and a latte. The latte took the longest but everything else was served promptly. read more

Terrible food and service. Visited on Feb. 10th between 10-12. Ordered a bagel sandwich which had no flavor, pressed coffee was terrible. This is not NYC bagels. Was told they had no ketchup when they are selling egg sandwiches. I was treated very poorly. Find a Chompie's near you, stay away from this restaurant. I will not ever visit this location again. read more

This Einstein is my favorite location because the service is always spot on. Everyone is so friendly and helpful. Because of the phenomenal service, I don't mind waiting for my food. Today I sat down to wait as I usually do and before I could start a small task I had prepared, both my sandwiches were ready! And there were SEVERAL orders coming in before mine, in the restaurant and via the mobile app orders. Amazing. read more

I absolutely love this location! Everyone is so kind and friendly and the location is conveniently located at the corner of Guadulupe Rd and McClintock drive. Plenty of parking too! I tried to order ahead but they system was temporarily down, despite the hiccup, I got my bagels and coffee quickly and served nice and warm! The gentleman taking my order might have been the owner- older gentleman with a kind smile gave me 3 free bagels for completing the survey at the bottom of the receipt. I got Everything, pretzel, and harvest grains. Also, I noticed at the bottom of my new receipt it says if you come back after 11:00am, you can get $1 off any sandwich purchased after 11am. Hang on to your receipts friends for savings and their app is also pretty cool. I've been using it because it's convenient and you get a free coffee with every purchase! I love the vanilla hazelnut! I always appreciate great customer service, thanks to this location, it's my favorite one for chewy fresh bagels and a friendly smile! read more

I go to this location several times a month mostly on mondays. Getting a bakers dozen and often a sandwhich. Ive complained to the manager about this situation in the past so why cant they get it right?! I ask for a tasty turkey sandwich on sesame bagel cut in half. So why is it 50% of the time they put raw red onion (which i despise) on it? The menu states onion and chive shmear. Not raw onion and chive shmear. The other 50% they forget to cut it? Today they did both put raw red onion AND forgot to cut it. I discovered this out on the freeway. I turn around drive 5 miles back (that 10 miles 5 each way of gas wasted to correct it) but they still messed up. This time making it a hot sandwich where the stuff is now wilted. (gross). So both sandwiches went in the trash today (one at the store the other at a jack in the box where i ended up going to get something to eat, instead of the nasty wilted tasty turkey sandwich I know people will say why not just take the onion off yourself?! Because i really hate raw onions and the red ones are the worst. The onion juice from it pressing on the other ingredients is enough to spoil the flavor of the other ingredients. luckily I'm not allergic to onion but i do have a food intolerance to raw onion. The only reason i continue going here is its exactly 1mile from work, and the closest Einstein bagels, to my home (in west phoenix) is about 10 miles away. Truly i would stop coming but i like the bagels so much and i figure its healthier than fried food. But im tired of wasting money here because they just cant consistently make a sandwich correctly. Update. I already messaged Einsteins about it days ago with no reply so far. So a business manager telling me on yelp to report it when they dont reply when you report it is useless. Its just a ploy to make it seem like they care and will correct a situation, when in reality they dont reply read more

Experience was fast and friendly! Another customer came in yelling at these poor young people! Please be kind to the staff. A lot of food industry are finding it hard to get good help! I told the staff they are doing good! I'm tired of seeing verbal abuse on these poor staff. Talk to the Manager if they need more training,but don't treat them like trash! This location did great not losing it with that lady! Bravo to that team there!! That Maple House egg Breakfast sandwich is amazing! read more

Staff is always great but there is obviously some serious disconnect with management. Always some issue at this location. Soda machine down. Electricity down. Toaster down. Can not sell gift cards. This is a chain - they should really address these issues proactively. read more

Aw man!! All I wanted was my nova lox favorite but it was a sure miss today! Normally it includes 1-2 nice thin slices like my moms' holding (left pic). But mine (right pic) was terrible! The salmon was mushy & tasted bad. I ended up scraping it off with most of the contents. read more

Went in and ordered two Blueberry muffins and two everything bagels egg and bacon with cheese. The young girl reads my order back and she said two blueberry bagels which I corrected so she corrected. I get my order over thirty minutes later and find out she only keyed in two blueberry muffins and one everything bagel sandwich. Management two busy. Went back in last Saturday and the manager was there to correct my order. New management and needing to clean up workers and store so understand the process because I have been in the same shoes. read more

Overpriced but delicious, don't believe the price justifies going back but if you got it and don't care bout to wallet you'll be fine

I would've given them a zero, but it wasn't an option. While we waited on two bagels, we sat at a table, looked around and saw that the restaurant was filthy. Could see the inches of dirt and garbage under the coffee maker, under the serving counters, on the floors, and we decided not to use the bathroom because it was beyond horrible. Looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a very long time. Bagels took forever and it appeared that just enough cream cheese had been swiped on them to give the illusion that there was actually cream cheese on them. We threw them in the garbage. We will never go back again! read more

Online order for 4 toasted bagels and 3 of those with plain schmear. I was really disappointed with the small amount of cream cheese on the bagels. I should have taken a picture of it. At other Einstein locations and other bagel places the cream cheese is very generous, however, this time there was a very small amount on all 3 bagels. I don't do many reviews but this is the first time I've ever received such a small amount of cream cheese on a bagel. Also, the bagels were barely toasted. read more

Claire's the best !!! Thank you for the great energy! I love their pizza bagels!!!!!!!

For quick but good breakfast, Einstein's serves up consistent food. From their coffee to their wide assortment of bagels and bagel sandwiches, I've always received friendly service and my meals are made in a short amount of time. I recently had a cool and refreshing iced vanilla hazelnut soy latte and a green chile bagel with jalapeno salsa cream cheese. The bagel itself was light and airy, with a nice toasted outer crust. The center was a little doughy though. The jalapeno cream cheese was very flavorful and had a great spicy kick to it. There's also a shaded patio outside and when the weather is nicer, people often bring their dogs for a breakfast outing with their pups. read more

SLAMMED! This morning on the Fourth of July. Everyone has smiles on their faces. GM Charlene is a force to be reckoned with! She has 8 arms I swear doing everything from orders, cashing out, running the line etc. Above all, amazing service from her as always. Making the most of the situation. Just wanted her to feel recognized! read more

The lady with two strands of hair and the Blonde girl were not very nice. they closed early , which is understandable, but having every single worker standing up front staring @ us when we are ordering a full 20 minutes before closing, is so rude and uncomfortable. It took them 3 minutes to make 3 bagels, quick and easy. Mind you, they didn't even have to hand churn the cream cheese themselves so ?????? Rude as FUCK 0/10. Like not you already counted your drawer and shut off the equipment a full 20 before you close. read more

This is the second of three Einstein bagels I've been to which I have a complaint with. In this case,the person working the register told me the first two credit cards I gave her wouldn't work. Supervisor came over and said she had set up her register wrong and we got that straightened out except that I wasn't given a coffee which I had paid for. Ask supervisor for my coffee cup and she quite curtly asked to see my receipt implying that I was trying to get something I hadn't paid for. That was resolved in my favor I got my order went out to my car to consume it and found out the coffee was barely hot. Not at all an acceptable customer service experience. read more

Third time here and every time there are issues. Today ordering 3 nov lox on garlic. Then told out of garlic but we have onion. Fine. Pay for order a sitting at table - now they have no onion bagels. WTF? Plus no ice and only fountain drink available is regular coke. Now we get our nova lox and it's like a sandwich not open face like at the other Einstein we go to. Who owns this mess? read more

Orders two bacon egg and cheese bagel sandwiches. Seems simple enough but got home and neither had bacon on them. On top of it one of the eggs was grayish green in color.
