Einstein Bros. Bagels

$3.29 for a bagel toasted with cream cheese!! Bagels are cheaper in NYC! Bagel was also tough like it was made the day before. No bueno. Just moved here and was looking forward to hitting this place up on the way to work every morning, guess I’ll try their coffee next time, hopefully that will be better.

I enjoy the variety of bagels and topping options at Einstein Bros. Bagels. This location was quiet around mid-morning and the service was impeccable. Store was clean and inviting and we didn't feel rushed while eating and chatting.

Second time at the Volvo Pkwy location and the service was terrible. This time we were not greeted when at the cashier station and it seemed like we were a bother to be there. Waited ten minutes for two cafe' lattes and finally gave up. Asked for a refund and this time the cashier was actually quite friendly. The two that were preparing the food had horrible attitudes. If they were my employees they'd be looking for jobs elsewhere.

Dirty Chi was worth the trip. Also had the Bacon, Avocado & Tomato Egg White sandwich (sub cucumber for tomato) - I should've gotten it on an everything bagel. The sandwich was decent but bland.

I was able to order two of the bagel boxes. They had a great assortment of bagels and my coworkers loved them. Bagels were tasty and the schmear options were great. We usually order Panera but I wanted to change it up. I don't think Einstein's offers to toast them like Panera but they did slice them. Only reason 4/5 is the service could have been better, the gentleman at the counter was less than pleasant.

Excellent bagels and service!

I ordered two bagels, NOT TOASTED, with cream cheese. The cashier confirmed I wanted them not toasted. I said yes. I got the bagels toasted. The ladies do not know how to follow simple instructions. Will not be going back. 2 stars for the freshness of the bagels.

Best bagels in Chesapeake and good coffee too.
Update 2018: I have updated and now have down ranked Einstein Bros from a four star to a two star. Although their food remains as good as it was, it is the rudeness of the staff that has gotten worse over time. I used to go to Einstein's on a weekly basis but have since cut down. This is my first visit in months, for example. I mean if you're going to do things like thrust a receipt into someone's hands while looking at your cellphone and not even say thanks -- I mean really!? The aforementioned combined with a litany of other incidents has again caused me to cut back on my visits. Put it this way, I go out to eat because I want to not need to. I can make coffee, etc just as good as these places so it is again a want to deal with me. If the management at this Einstein Bros location does not deal with the rudeness issues there will be customers like me who will not want to patronize their business anymore.

My husband and I got the brunch for 2 box and while most of it was good, the hashbrown cake things were definitely not. Mine was not cooked through I think.

Second time visiting this place and the service was horrible. Not only did they try to rush me and tried to make me feel stupid because I didn’t know the menu (mind you it was only my second time there) but they assumed I wanted my order to go and didn’t even ask if I wanted to dine in, and when I said something about it, one of the girls working there made a “face” and just turned around as if she was annoyed, thankfully the other young lady said “no problem we can fix that” and gave me a basket to dine in. Will not be going back.
