Reviews for Einstein Bros. Bagels in Charlottesville, VA
It's nice to go here for breakfast. It's very efficient to order with GrubHub for meal exchange. However, the bagels are... mediocre. The sandwiches taste very artificial. The shmear was meager. The asiago bagels are great though. Read more
I like Einstein bagels in general and have had some good experiences in the past. This particular location caters mostly to... college students and the quality of the bagels (especially if you get a sandwich bagel) just doesn't compare to other standalone Einstein's that I've been to. It's OK in a pinch but I try to plan other options so I don't need to stop by here. Read more
I went to this place in between classes for a quick bite. I ordered one of the most basic things on their menu, egg bacon and... cheese bagel. People who had ordered 10 minutes after me got their food before I did. After about 15 minutes of waiting Iquestioned where my food was. Despite paying, it wasn't on their list of orders, and one of the female chefs looked me in theeyes and said "we made all of them there's no way." Essentially, she refused to make my food. It took another 5 minutes ofwaiting for another chef to finally make my food. I waited ~20 minutes for a simple bagel, that took them less than 2 minutes tomake once they had finally done so. It should be mentioned I wasn't the only one who complained about their food not beingmade. So I'm not an isolated incident, yet I was treated like I was trying to get a free bagel. All in all, the customerservice here is some of the worst I've experienced, and the bagel i received was mediocre. I will not be visiting again anytimesoon. Read more
Nice place, pretty timely service good bagels. Located inside rice hall so a great place to pick up something in between... classes. Read more
Good option for a coffee to go. They have many types of coffee and milk. You serve it yourself so it will always be exactly as... you like! Read more
Decent coffee and bagels but occasionally if I ordered both a bagel and coffee they would forget my coffee order and I'd wait... for >30 minutes, have to remind them, then wait another 10-20 minutes for it. Not exactly a great experience. I'd recommendgoing to Argo tea or Greenberry in Clark. Only reason I even go here is because it's in Rice. Read more
The bagels and bagel sandwiches are good, the smoothies are lacking, and the pop is pop. What really brings this down is the... slow service. With no line it took 15 minutes for me to get a basic sandwich. I endes up being late to class. Long waits areregular here. Read more
Average place but good for bagel sandwich meal exchanges. Bagels are alright, nothing amazing. Meal exchange menu is super... limited to less than 5 bagel sandwich options out of a massive menu. During peak hours they don't meet GrubHub pickup time soyou end up waiting quite a while after it says your order is ready on your phone. Soft serve beverage machine regularly does nothave stock of all flavors and is also broken a lot. They also are usually out of stock of different spreads and some of theregular menu items. Read more
