I never liked bagels. Tough doughy donuts if you ask me. "Time 4 Bagels" changed me. Go there! Eat bagels! Become a convert! read more

There's a line for a reason! The bagel place is a great place to go. With lots of different big options to choose from you'll never run short of different combinations. read more

Stopped by in the early afternoon. We were greeted promptly and friendly. There was no line. We tried the Zatar bagels with a plain smear of cream cheese. The unique flavor was subtle, and the bagel had a good chew. The cheese seemed a touch thin in texture, like a "low fat" feel. Preparation was about 5 minutes. Staff didn't interact after giving our order, felt a little cold, but still a pleasant experience. Will try again read more

Heard great things about this place so stopped by while we were in the area. I'm not a big bagel person, but wanted to see what people thought was a great bagel. My husband and I both ordered the Lower East Side Bagel (smoked salmon, schmear, capers and onions). We went around 1:00, and there really wasn't a line. We waited a reasonable amount of time for our order. The bagel sandwiches were conveniently wrapped in paper and sliced in half. It made it easier to eat on the go. We ate it on the way home in our car. The bagels had a nice crispy, crunchy texture on the outside and was soft and moist on the inside. I thought it had a good amount of crispiness on the outside while my husband thought it could've been a five star bagel if it was a little crispier. While the bagel sandwich was overall tasty and good, we thought it could've used some more salmon. And the salmon didn't have a lot of smoked flavor. But it had a good amount of schmear, not too much. The capers were a good addition for the needed saltiness and the onions add a nice texture. The interior had a decent amount of seating with some high top tables as well. We would stop by again next time in the area. read more

Place is electric- best bagels in the area bar none. Great baked goods like black and white cookies too. Coffee is incredible, friendly service. Owners are great people. read more

I would give zero stars if I could. I took my Two year old here on a Tuesday based on their yelp hours and they were closed. It was 90 degrees and my toddler was obviously upset he wasn't allowed outside the car. They updated their google and "insta" hours but have yet to update their yelp hours. Instead of taking responsibility they were totally rude and arrogant. When they were called out for being wrong they ignored me. We have been here several times and the service is horridly slow. read more

I've visited Time 4 Bagels Cafe several times now. The first two times - the lines were ridiculously long. Depending on when you arrive - there may be a long line. The first time I visited - I was in line for about 20 minutes - and gave up - as the line had barely moved. The second time I visited - it took 20 minutes to get to the register - and 19 more minutes to receive my order. I've had the Lower East Side Bagel: Smoked salmon, schmear, capers, onions & tomato; the BEC (Bacon, egg, and cheese - with extra cheese and extra bacon - no ketchup); and a SEC (Sausage, egg, and cheese - no ketchup). I've also had their cold brew. All 3 breakfast bagel Sammies I had were on a salted Rosemary Bagel - every time I have visited - there was very little choice of Bagels - as they were sold out. All of the Bagel sandwiches were tasty. The cold brew was good as well. There is only 5 small tables to eat in. When there is a long line right by the tables - it's not the best eat in experience. I hope they address Bagel output. Not much they can do about the seating. Paid with Apple Pay. #Time4BagelsCafe read more

If you're looking for a proper bagel I cannot recommend this spot enough! I ordered a Jalapeño cheddar and there was actual jalapeño inside my bagel. The bagel was crispy and perfectly toasted. I subbed in Turkey sausage since I don't eat pork and the made sure to go above and beyond by making my order on a separate griddle and changing their gloves. My order took a little longer than others to come out but I understand it was due to my request, while I was waiting folks that got there a little before and after me had all gotten their orders. The ambiance was very pleasant but I did come a little later in the morning, not a lot of noise and some lovely christmas music playing. I will be sure to try their lattes next and stop by more often. read more

If you come here you will be addicted to breakfast and it will become a staple of your diet, you've been warned There's usually a line and they make the hot food to order so there might be a wait but like I said it's worth it. read more

I've only been once but based off what I've seen I really liked it. The bagels and the sandwiches are definitely worth the prices because you can get full quickly off that alone. Definitely recommend if you want a quick breakfast sandwich. read more

Time 4 Bagels - I believe this one is called the Tex - Bagels Near Me - Gainesville, Virginia

Fist timer. Holy smokes the Grease! I was genuinely shocked how much grease the sandwich was covered in. The whole wrapper was soaked in grease and the entire sandwich including the beagle was covered with grease. They should just bake it the grease monster. You need gloves to eat this. My fingers were wet and glistening with grease. My stomach was making all kinds of noises trying to digest all the grease. Way too much Grease it's as jf they constructed the sandwich then tossed it in its entirety into a grease vat. I would go so far as to say the McDonald's steak egg and cheese for the price is a better option vs the price of this vs taste vs this grease monster of a sandwich. Pretty big let down. read more

I haven't been a few months...came back and still happy that this place is part of our community. The Asiago bagels are my absolute favorite. The cinnamon cream cheese is also my favorite and buy a tub every time. This place is by far the best bagel place on this end of the PW county. Please continue to support this place so we don't lose this gem! read more

Great service, salt bagels are terrific, and often sell out by afternoon. You can phone and ask them to put some aside for you! Thanks! read more

Not impressed. Someone told me about this place bragging how good it was so I went out my way to try it because I was told they had pork roll egg n cheese. As a tri-stater I was excited. Get there and the place is packed... good sign. Ask for a pork roll sandwich on a Kaiser; no kaisers, just bagels. Who the hell eats a pork roll on a bagel? Got a salt bagel n cream cheese instead. The salt bagel had almost no salt and tasted like it had rosemary on it. I did notice the salt/rosemary bagels in the case; this was not one of them but still tasted like it was. Rosemary is extremely overpowering so it should be in a separate area. The cream cheese is just that whipped stuff. Tried it, won't go back. Sadly, Manhattan bagel in Clifton is way better. read more

Time 4 Bagels - You can count the salt on a salt bagel ‍ - Bagels Near Me - Gainesville, Virginia

Good place, good people and an honest small business here in Gainesville, VA. You can stand in line or you can call in advance and order for pickup, I recommend the latter Can't wait for online ordering. Good value for fresh food (although the sammy's can be $$$). Another Kudos, Annie, (the manager/owner?) for dealing with demanding customers in a very kind and patient manner. I've now gotten my co-workers in Lorton hooked on these things and have to place my order in advance. Some misunderstandings on the pickup but quickly and graciously corrected. This place was a zoo of people at 0945. I guess that is good for them! read more

Great fresh bagels! I ordered the everything toasted with egg and cheese. They use a real egg that they fry up, not the spongey stuff. And they put American cheese on both sides of the bagel - bonus points for that. I will say the bagel was a bit salty for my liking. But sometimes everything bagels are that way. Nice friendly atmosphere. They have several bagel variety types and a lunch menu also. read more

My wife heard about this new spot a few days ago so while I was out running some errands in Gainesville yesterday morning I stopped in. I brought half a dozen home, three asiago and three everything. Finally. A good bagel in this area. Ok, not just a good bagel. A REALLY, REALLY good bagel. Crisp on the outside and chewy on the inside. read more

The bagels here are amazing! That said, the amount of cream cheese can be hit or miss. It really seems to vary depending on who's making the bagel. Sometimes it's the perfect amount, but other times it feels like they barely put any on. I just wish the cream cheese portioning was a bit more consistent. Other than that it's the best bagel spot it Gainesville! read more

One of the best bagels I've had in the DMV since moving from NY. I can't get a salted bagel anywhere except here. Make sure when you ask for a schmear the person gives you a healthy amount of cream cheese or butter. I don't think the young lady knows what a schmear is. read more

Bagels were fantastic! We visited on a very busy Sunday afternoon. Alhough they were out of a few varieties, It was not a huge deal at all because there were lots of options to choose from. Bagels were fresh, and service was fast and friendly. Don't sleep on the coffee- it's fantastic. So glad to have this place in our neighborhood. read more

Great family-owned business with fresh bagels. The staff was very friendly and the line moved well. There is a limit of six bagels, which is understandable, because it's a small shop and they are trying to serve as many customers as possible. I tried the rosemary bagel with garlic and chive cream cheese. And I got my husband the bagel and lox sandwich. Everything was delicious. So excited to have another bagel shop in the area since Tom and Suzies closed. I will definitely be back to try other flavors of bagels and cream cheese. They also serve roadmap coffee, which is roasted in Lexington, love that this small business , is supporting another small business! read more

The bagels are the best I've found in the area, crispy on outside and chewy in the middle. Salted Rosemary was quite tasty. I will be back on a weekend, since apparently that's the only time cinnamon raisin are made. read more

Stopped in here on Sunday at about 9 AM. Left at 10:20. It was a significant line but mostly patient. They were completely out of sweet bagels when we reach the head of the line, so we needed to improvise. My husband had the bodega bagel. He couldn't finish it. It had to be 2 1/2 inches thick. It looked incredible and he raved about it. We also picked up four bagels - two jalapeño cheddar, one rosemary, salted, and a plain. The cream cheese offerings were light yesterday due to crowds, but we picked up the curry mustard spread. The bagels were above average. I would've liked jalapeño through the jalapeño cheese bagel. The rosemary salted was spectacular! The plain vehicle was just average. But the spread OMG it was so good. It was a little frustrating that they were almost sold out so early in the day, but I am thrilled. We have a bagel place in the neighborhood. Everyone was working to the best of the capability, racing around and restocking bagels as quickly as they could. I'm looking forward to trying some other offerings. 4.5 stars. Welcome to the Neighborhood! read more

Solid Sourdough style bagels. We always get a plain for the kids, the steak and cheese and lower east side (lox). A great cup of coffee. It had become a regular wknd spot for the family. read more

The Bagels taste so fresh. Best I've had since moving to Virginia. My husband and I both got the bodega bagel and it was stacked! Finally a place that doesn't skimp on the meat, thank you. We also ordered some bagels and cream cheese to go which was also delicious. I was not upset one bit about the various options running out, I appreciate them making fresh bagels. read more

Bagels are great! Don't stop in of you are in a rush or even just have a few minutes. 14 min and counting to get 4 toasted bagels. Manhattan Bagel, line to the door last friday, 3 minutes literally. I think this place needs to change the operation. Order, pull bagels, pay! Someone please help, the bagels are too good for this! read more

These are the best bagels I've had in Virginia and I've been here almost 40 years. They have a wonderful flavor, loads of you favorite toppings and they make the best sandwiches. The varieties of cream cheeses is plentiful....one or several to suit anyone's taste. The staff is warm and friendly and always there to help. The bagels are baked fresh daily and you just can't go wrong with Time 4 Bagels read more

First off the bagel is mid, and overpriced. Second the staff is clueless, they are slow and need a lesson in customer service. Won't be returning. read more

I got a ham egg and cheese on everything and a veggie cream cheese on everything, both to share with a friend. The ham, egg and cheese was mostly processed cheese and it just wasn't good - we did not finish it. The everything bagel with cream cheese was even worse - I could not even see the cream cheese on it when I opened it. It was like it had all absorbed into the bagel. It just wasn't good, unfortunately. Would not go back. Rating a 2 bc service was fast and friendly. read more

Absolutely love these sourdough bagels! You can truly taste the love and care that goes into each one. It's clear this amazing, hardworking, family owned business and their employees take pride in what they do. The salt bagel is my favorite and the salt and rosemary come in at a close second. Perfectly chewy, flavorful, and always fresh. Can't recomment them enough! read more

The egg and cheese sandwich on a jalapeño sourdough bagel was amazing! The accompanying Italian roast coffee was the perfect accompaniment. The ambience was simply superb! I believe that my taste buds are now on overdrive. Scott and Annie, you satisfied my belly and my brain. God willing, I am now ready for all challenges today, this week, this year! May good fortune shine on you and yours! read more

I've been here several times now, and the bagels are absolutely delicious! I'll definitely keep coming back. However, they seem to struggle with keeping their inventory stocked. Every time I visit, they're out of multiple kinds of bagels. Be prepared to adjust your order, as there's a good chance your first choice won't be available. This has happened on every visit so far, which is a bit frustrating. Also, they are slow to fill orders, so you will have to wait awhile. We waited in line for 10 minutes, then another 15 minutes after ordering for just two bagels with cream cheese (not even a specialty/breakfast sandwich). I recommend they look at Manhattan Bagel's model, specifically, the location in Centreville. They are fast and efficient with low wait times even when the place is packed. Hopefully, Time4Bagels can improve their inventory and wait times because the bagels themselves are fantastic! read more

Time 4 Bagels - Available bagel choices this morning - Bagels Near Me - Gainesville, Virginia

I requested that my steak and cheese bagel be prepared on a clean surface using a spatula that had not been used for bacon or ham. The cook initially checked with someone in the kitchen before returning to take my order. I asked for two steak and cheese bagels, but the cook seemed to think it was not worth the effort to clean the surface and use a separate space for preparation. It's important to note that we have allergies to pork-related recipes. read more

I'm on my 10th or so visit, so it's time to assess again. Their bagels and cream cheese are absolutely delicious. Our favorites are the jalapeño cheddar bagel, the blueberry cream cheese is to die for, and the BEC on anything. Execution and delivery has improved and wait times are manageable. Family owned and operated. Why buy from huge corporations when you can shop local in your community? read more

Great bagels and coffee - highly recommend the rosemary sea-salt bagel! The bagels were the perfect blend of chewy on the outside and soft on the inside. While the food was great, there is limited seating and the energy of the staff was pretty low. I'd recommend getting your food to go. We would go back for the bagels! read more

Very good bagels and sandwiches, but customer service is lacking. Staff is very slow and does not keep track of customers and how long they have been waiting. I've been 3xs and drive 30 min to get these bagels. I want to keep going back but the lack of focusing on the customer experience is really bothering me. We will see :-) read more
