    Bacon, Egg, and Cheese (American) Sandwich on a plain bagel with scallion cream cheese spread
    Haley F.

    2 days later and I'm still thinking about this bagel sandwich. I got a bacon, egg, and cheese (American) on a plain bagel with scallion cream cheese. The egg was cooked perfectly and the bacon was super good and thick. The bagel was assembled well as I was able to taste every component in each bite. My only complaint is that I wish the bagel was a little hotter in temperature. I can't wait to go back to Nervous Charlies!

    I looooove the tree hugger with veggie cream cheese on a sesame bagel.

    The staff is cool each time I've been. I love the Treehugger so that's what I get every time, but there are two or three more sandwiches that I want to try.

    Came in for a bagel at 9am on a weekday and they weren't too busy, a handful of customers in and out after I ordered. Small shop but nice use of space, and plenty of outdoor seating. I saw at least six picnic tables outside that each sat 6-8 people (umbrellas for shade as well). I ordered a jalapeño bagel with garlic cream cheese. It took a little while to come out, but was delicious. The bagel was nice and soft, and the cream cheese was fresh-tasting, mixed with real ingredients. The price might be a bit high w cream cheese added, but the portion was generous...I actually ended up scraping off half my cream cheese because it was too much even for me.

    Truly Amazing Bagels and Breakfast Sandwiches! My husband and I visited Nervous Charlie's, and wow--it completely lived up to the hype! They have actual bagels from NYC, and the flavor is unbeatable. We both ordered The Longhorn, which features fried eggs, breakfast potatoes, cheddar cheese, and Charlie's hot sauce, we chose bacon as our protein. I had mine on an everything bagel, and my husband went with the jalapeño cheddar bagel. Let me just say--yum, yum, yum, yum! These sandwiches were absolutely delicious. The service was super friendly, and the place was spotless. From the incredible bagels to the welcoming vibe, we loved everything about this spot. If you're looking for a fantastic breakfast or just a taste of NYC bagels, Nervous Charlie's is a must-visit!

    I love a good bagel.. especially one that is toasted and slathered in cream cheese lol! This place did not disappoint. I ordered through a carrier service but the food still arrived fresh and hot. I had the bacon egg and cheese on jalapeño bagel and one with strawberry spread. I wish it were toasted a bit more but they both were tasty.

    These delicious bagels are such an awesome reminder of the delicious bagel shop near our home. My BFF  & I would walk each Saturday

    The bagels are New York Style and made the old fashioned way. Nice crust on the outside and firm (yet readily chewable) On the inside. I ordered their "dozen" which is also old school as it's actually 13 bagels! I won't be freezing half and we will enjoy half tomorrow with the rest of our Easter finger foods. The veggie cream cheese is perfect -just the right amount of chopped fresh vegetables and their delicious cream cheese. This time we also tried the honey heat-that may not be what it's called, but it is a mixture of honey along with some heat mixed into the cream cheese. It was also very good.It I did a pick up today near closing time so they would be as fresh as possible. They actually have a pick up window, but since I had never used it I really didn't realize it and went in to pick up my order. The young lady that took care of me was very nice and no worries when I said I wasn't sure where the window was. It's definitely not the drive-through style and it's kind of built right into the regular windows up by the counter. I'll know at the next time I do a pick up. The ambience is very nice, calm with many people enjoying their breakfast, brunch, lunch orders. I have had coffee here before and it's quite good. There was a bit of a snafu with my ability to order online, but likely it's operator error. Anyway, they were very nice and responded to me and I kept trying and finally this morning I got my order in.!!! I hope to meet Charlie someday. They are dog friendly and I'll have to bring BO up to do a meet and greet.

    Wow !! I've had bagels in New York and these are just as good in my opinion! Nice chewy dough but crisp interior. The filling were fantastic. I tried both the longhorn and the salmon lox bagels and enjoyed every single bite. I also love that they're dog friendly and even provide dog treats. I came with my 2 dogs, husband, and friend it was a vibe. The service is pretty straight forward. You just go to the cashier, order, and they'll call out your order when ready. Would come again!

    Nervous Charlie's is a phenomenal bake shop specializing in Bagels and Bagel sandwiches. There are two monitors to place your order or go online and pre order. I love this idea and it seems like they cover every selection I'd want on a bagel (except mayonnaise). They even have a pick-up window for deliveries. Large variety of bagels to choose from, with the exception of a cheddar bagel, without jalapeños. Nice selection of cream cheeses too. I can't wait to try their Pastrami sandwiches, as the description sounds great. I ordered a "Classic Bagel", which included 2 eggs fried to perfection, choice of protein (I chose ham), and cheddar cheese. The combination was amazing. The peppers were not overwhelming with heat, and a touch of mayo made a very nice balanced. My wife ordered a garlic bagel, double toasted with butter and cream cheese. She absolutely loved it. It was crunchy from the toasting, yet still soft inside. Needless to say, you will love this spot. Make it an intention to say hi to Charlie. You won't be disappointed. Michael C. - Georgetown, Tx.

    Bagel sandwich with avocado and cheddar cheese

    Great bagel sandwich. It was nice they allow you to substitute avocado without an up charge for those that do not eat meat.

    Bagels are one of my favorite foods, and Nervous Charlie's has lots of them! The small store off of Whitestone is decorated in their statement orange, and they have a descent sized outdoor space as well. Me and my family get bagels here every Friday, and love it! Because of the small store (and amazing bagels) Nervous Charlie's is often busy and crowded, especially on weekends. But the employees are always friendly despite the crowd of hungry costumers :) If there was one thing I would change about Nervous Charlie's, it would be the lack of chocolate chip bagels. They have a wide selection of bagels and often have seasonal options, but somehow don't have chocolate chip! Other than ththat, and they are a 5 star bagel shop for sure.

    I got the Barton Springs bagel sandwich($12), which includes whipped goat cheese, prosciutto, arugula and a balsamic sauce. This was a nice and light breakfast option! I kind of wished I picked an option with cream cheese just so I could try theirs, but the whipped goat cheese definitely had the texture of cream cheese. We went at 10 am on a Sunday and had to wait around 15 min for our food. It looks like their ordering ahead system is efficient! Inside had a few tables and was very clean. The service was friendly!

    Longhorn with everything bagel

    Finally a bagel shop that is just amazing in this area. Have been to Nervous Charlie twice already and can't wait to go back. Their bagels are so soft not chewy at all. I love their fun flavors like fresh toast which is amazing. The service is impeccable I always go to the counter to order because I like to customize my sandwich. I have been obsessed with Longhorn Breakfast sandwich and i always ask for scrambled eggs. It can get busy quick but they get through each order pretty quick. There are good amount of seating and has a very nice atmosphere to sit and chat with a friend. I love this place.

    First time visit. I ordered a plain bagel cut in half and untoasted. When I got home, they had shoved chipotle, cream cheese inside an ice cold bagel. Simple order and can't follow simple directions. I had to throw both the bagels in the trash. This is the world we live in now.. unfortunately.

    Look! Isn't this bagel sandwich beautiful!? And it was also delicious!

    I'm Venezuelan and this place definitely delivered!…read more The restaurant is small but nice and very clean. I loved that they offer Venezuelan drinks and natural juices. I went with the passion fruit (maracuyá) juice and it was delicious. I ordered the cachapa with grilled beef and it was amazing, I loved it. It was perfectly cooked, the cheese was delicious and the beef added the perfect savory balance. The service was 10/10, the guy in the front who helped me with the order was friendly and the food came out quickly. You can tell they care about both the food and the customer experience. I already know I'll be coming back to try more items on the menu

    I love Venezuelan food, but I've never had a pepito before, so I was so excited to try Tu Pepito…read more The workers are super nice and the lady taking our order gave us a lot of help with the menu. She let us know the tupepito was a popular item, and the sweet plantain was a favorite among people that liked salty and sweet things. So of course we had to order those! I was looking online, and pepitos seem to be more like sandwiches, but the ones here reminded me more of a mix of a flatbread and taco. And it was delicious and so filling! They give a lot of meat and toppings so I definitely think it's worth it. And the sauces are delicious. They provide garlic, corn, ketchup, bacon, chipotle, and cheese sauce so you have so many ways to mix and match and experience different flavors between bites. But my personal favorites were the corn, garlic, and chipotle. I also saw they have cachapas and tequeños on the menu, so will have to try that some time too! They also have burgers but idk if anyone really comes here for the burgers when there are so many other specialized items on the menu.

Best in the area, and I love supporting small businesses. I got their mega taco and split that with my partner. Kept us both full! Food was made to order but wait wasn't too long. Definitely worth it. Good prices for the amount of food they give you. You order at the back of the gas station, wait for your food, then pay at the front register. The entrance doesn't look like it'll have all this amazing food, but trust it and you won't regret it! It's still your average convenience store, but the space was clean and the man at the register was very kind. There are also seats and tables in front of the order counter to sit and wait or enjoy your food. Definitely recommend for breakfast tacos! They also sell tamales and have lunch specials.

    I've been going to Leander Grocery a few times due to all the great reviews! It's ALL true!…read moreDefinitely worth the price as their ratio in portions are more than you can bite. Plus they have fresh tortillas! Definitely enjoyed their breakfast items the most such as the breakfast burrito and chorizo egg taco!

Since we were new, we let the other people go first. The line moved very slow in total. It took about 15 minutes before it was our turn to sample their flavors. For me personally, I was a bit bummed to see all these delicious flavors that were available, but I wasn't able to sample many of them because I have a dairy allergy. So that being said, they only had one flavor that I could try at the time I did appreciate that they had a laminated sheet of paper that listed all of the allergens and all of their flavors, so anyone that had an allergy could quickly see which flavors they could try and which ones they should avoid. During my visit, I ordered their mint basil sorbet which was very good. At five dollars per scoop, it's definitely on the pricier side. However, the ambience inside this ice cream shop was nice and I could see myself hanging out here socially if they had more dairy free options. But overall, I had an okay experience here. The workers were very friendly and knowledgeable. They are located in a small plaza with ample parking. It was also easy to get in and out of the parking lot, which I think is a big plus.

We got brisket, short ribs, & pork belly with jalapeño coleslaw and Mac and cheese. Presentation looked amazing, however, our bbq was lukewarm. Except for the short rib, the meats were not tender and not easy to pull apart or fall apart. Brisket was dry and chewy and the pork belly was cold that the fat was unrendered. Flavor profile of the pork was unique, on the sweeter side but eventually got tired of it as I am not much of a sweet meat person. If the meats were warm and soft, it would have been a good day & prob 4 stars bc the flavor was good, but just short of it being good all together. We weren't a fan of the jalapeño coleslaw, the jalapeño overpowered it. Mac and cheese was decent. I did like their coffee while waiting since this was my first stop out of the airport.
