Eats is a neighborhood store that has undergone several improvements over the last couple of years,…read morewhich to me elevates their status relative to other Blacksburg grocers. They have reorganized their offerings, and they offer weekly sale items as listed in a commercial-style flyer. They began carrying Cadadia ("every day") brand that offers competitive prices on numerous staples. Their bulk prices are usually LOWER than the pre-packaged item at Kroger. You'll receive excellent, knowledgeable service as needed. Yes, many of the prices are higher than Kroger, but what Eats offers is local and/or TRULY organic food (unlike larger commercial brands.) Oh, and there is a discount for seniors on all items, every day, all the time. I abandoned the corporate shopping mentality, and I love Eats.

This is a small store that is aesthetically more like a general retail outlet than a grocer for…read moresome reason. The selection is modest and prices high, but I did find some items from good brands and local things that probably would not have been in a conventional grocery store. It's good that this sort of place exists, though I would hope a college town could sustain more.

We ordered and over 9 people got their food before us. I talked the manager , some lady named…read moreRosa,, was nasty when I asked why other people have been served. Her excuse was that they take online orders as well. That is not my problem. Then the next excuse was that the bagel melt had to be put under the broiler. She and another man were talking about me and I told them if they had something to say it to my face. To think that the owner came down to GA to learn from our friend and owner of a bagel shop. I am appalled that the Roanoke staff had more people and about over double the space and they take three times as long. Two people were standing around not doing (a guy and a girl) anything but talking and laughing. There was even a little kid in the kitchen. He could have only been around 8. That should not be allowed and I am going to the labor and restaurant laws to see it is legal. Where I work, everyone picks up the slack. Piss poor service and Rosa needs to not make excuse and should in my opinion be fired. I did lose my temper but don't tell me one excuse and then another. The last thing she screamed at me that it had only been 12 minutes. I got a couple other receipts from people and their wait time was ten minutes after us. Rosa should be fired and the man with the beard should be reprimanded and even fired. Lastly, most restaurants require something on their hair and beard and NO was wearing them. No hair nets. Rosa had on an Aunt Jemima style wrap but she wasn't work hard either. So sad because we loved the fact that one of our favorite bagel shop from GA was coming here. Update: there is a law that said restaurant staff has to cover hair and beards. The link to the law in VA. https://law.lis.virginia.gov/admincode/title12/agency5/chapter421/section240/

I still go often, but since they've reopened it's fallen off. The drive thru is always closed in…read morethe morning, so I often don't stop. I assume it's staffing issues but the inside was slow my most recent visit at 8:30. Also, I really want to support local so I am hoping this comes across as constructive criticism. The dining area in the morning is not kept up or organized, chairs are everywhere and workers seem consumed with to go orders instead of the restaurant. The bagels have great flavor and the cream cheese is always perfect, but please toast the bagel. A warm bagel is not a toasted bagel it's almost seemed microwaved. Maybe I'm ordering wrong, but I want a toasted bagel that's browned. Lastly, is 8 dollars for bagel and coffee the right price? National average is 6 and it's 8 in NYC or Seattle.

This was fine for my needs, and indeed I like places with a narrow focus, but it might come as a surprise to some. The space was minimal. I was a bit surprised to see bagels packed in threes; I was expecting to be able to pick them out by flavor one at a time. I was also a bit surprised that the cinnamon rolls their website promised didn't seem to be there, though a few other intriguing baked goods were on sale. Ultimately, I took some mouthwatering rosemary and sundried tomato bagels along with some plain ones for comparison, as well as a chocolate babka cake. The bagels had that bit of sourness that makes them worthwhile, and a nice bit of browning. The babka cake, which I worried would not have enough chocolate, delivered satisfaction on a per-bite basis. What I wanted out of my baked goods is pretty much what i got.

This shop is near our hotel and we wanted to give it a try based on the positive reviews. We used their online ordering system. It's pretty detailed including how you want your bagel toasted. Once we arrived our order was ready and we walked past the huge crowd. My onion bagel with veggie cream cheese was so delicious. It was packed with fresh veggies and enough cream cheese for me to enjoy. The onions flavored the bagel so well that I had a burst of onions and vegetables for breakfast.

Stopped in for a quick breakfast and I was hoping I'd find my new favorite bagel place. There was a…read moregood amount of options, but I went with my favorite order, a lox bagel with cream cheese, tomatoes, and onions. It was a little over ten dollars, which is a little pricey for me personally, but I hoped it would be worth it. It was not. My bagel came out quickly, but as soon as I opened it, I was a little sad. I was disappointed to see that there was basically no cream cheese on the bagel or lox, and most of the space was taken up by the toppings. It tasted okay, but it was nothing impressive. There is seating inside and outside too, and the inside was very clean and the line was quick. If you don't like a lot of cream cheese on your bagel, this place is for you.

They had 3 homemade ice cream flavors available, so I tried the lemon mint Oreo (which was delicious). I'm a huge cookies-n-cream fan, so it was a unique twist to add lemon flavor. Portions are huge and generous - I ordered a "small size" in a cup, but it felt like 2 or 3 giant scoops anywhere else. Really good value for ice cream! The ambience is old-school with nothing fancy. It's a simple roadside building where you place your order on the right side window, then wait to pickup at the left side window. About 18 total parking spots are available as well as several outdoor benches. They accept credit cards. Overall, the homemade ice cream was excellent. Would recommend coming here if you're visiting the Christiansburg / Blacksburg area.
