Bruegger's Bagels

I've known Bruegger's Bagels has been in the area for the better part of three decades. I remember when there was a bit of a shift in the breakfast ecosystem of Bettendorf and Davenport around the early 90s when donut shops started disappearing in favor of bagel joints. Bruegger's emerged around that time, but I was never keen, as I was an ignorant child who did not yet enjoy any savory breakfast foods beyond bacon. Well, this morning was the day to end that sad trend, as I craved a bacon and egg sandwich - and a bagel might as well be the bread!

The interior or Bruegger's is nothing special. It's particularly clean at the moment, as they seem to be one of the last places anywhere to reopen their dining room. I asked the gentleman at the register about it - he attributed this to decisions made at the corporate level. Something about how their sales haven't suffered by not reopening at this point. I don't blame them - given the preference, I like it when a few less people are around my work.

It took me a little while to figure out my order, but I settled on a rosemary olive oil bagel with bacon and a single egg. I can't say there was much special about it, but it definitely hit the spot. The bagel was nice and dense with a hint of the rosemary in its name, the bacon was, well, bacon, and the egg was properly prepared and tasted good, as well. Definitely a breakfast sandwich I'd come back for again.

And come back again I should. I find it unfortunate the Bruegger's is in the opposite direction down Middle Road as my place of employment - maybe I'll be able to stop by on the weekend sometime for a breakfast sandwich? I can hope, right? We'll see, I guess. Thanks Bruegger's!

Love Bruegger’s Bagels, but their customer service is always so disappointing! Zero acknowledgment when you walk in the door, or even up to the counter. They seem bothered to help anyone most of the time. A simple “Hey, we’ll be right with you!” could go a long way. I keep hoping their customer service will improve, but it sucks.

Delicious! Always a great place for bagels! And why not treat the peeps in the office and take them a dozen or two?

Have been coming to Bruegger’s Bagels for years. Honey Wheat bagel with honey walnut cream cheese.

Staff is always friendly and the restaurant is always clean. I’ve always enjoyed watching the bagel making process through the window.

Just went here today with my husband. We come here when we are in the area! The bagels are always top notch! I love how the bagels are coated in their toppings like the everything bagel. The cream cheese is always on point and I love the variety! Brueggers just has a quality of food then some surrounding bagel places. The service we experienced was also good. We will continue to visit this place in the future. I hope their recipes never change!

Have been doordashing from here for about 2 years and have literally never gotten an order without a 10-15 minute wait because they forgot to start it till you walked in

I go there 2-3 times a week. Gave 3 stars cause the food is great most of the employees cordial and great. The bad. I am done coming there. I have never had a good experience with one of the employees and unfortunately today she was the cashier. (Pink hair). No Eye contact. She acted as though I was interrupting her from her chips and drink. No hello. No thank you. No good morning, no eye contact. If that is the perception you want of your business great but there are plenty of places to get a breakfast sandwich.

I thought I would try them today. I got the alvacado, bacon and egg breakfast sandwich. I am so glad I stop.

We used to love Bruggers bagels but this location as others have mentioned has horrible customer service, most employees with the exception of a few are just very rude. We still went somewhat often because we loved the bagels and the soup but I recently found out they don’t sell soup anymore, I think it’s just this location and it’s upsetting because now it’s not worth going anymore to get rude service and not be able to get soup on top of that. Last time we went you still couldn’t eat inside even though everything else is, honestly by the way the employees act at this location it just seems like they don’t want to work there.

Great bagels and fast service! Order was ready when their app said it would be.
