    I love bodos so much that if I'm ever in or passing Charlottesville I try to stop by. Their everything bagel is a must and I love getting either a simple egg and cheese bagel for breakfast or either pastrami or roast beef for lunch. Perfect for breakfast/lunch and to go for road trips!

    While passing through Charlottesville I wanted something unique to the area and found Bodo's Bagels one of the few NY style bagel shops. The prices were super affordable and the everything bagel was mouthwatering. Great location for an affordable grab and go or dine in meal.

    I came here Saturday morning and there was a line. It goes by fast though. Pretty crowded but there was plenty of open seating. The jalapeño cream cheese was really good. Not spicy at all. They forgot my egg in my bagel but I'd still give it 5/5. It tasted fresh, hot, creamy. It was delicious!

    The lines may be long but it goes pretty fast and is worth it. As an alumna I had to stop in to eat at the infamous Bodo's. I got a lunch sandwich and a breakfast (honey pecan cream cheese on plain) bagel for the next day. Both sandwiches were absolutely delicious. Love that the prices are still affordable and the staff was friendly as usual. Love Bodo's and I definitely recommend trying it if you haven't before.

    Bodo's is a big deal for Charlottesville. This location is off campus a few miles. This was my first ever visit to the famous locals bagel shop. Their iconic location is on the UVA campus. Surface parking is nearby, but they can get slammed! The employees park in the drive-thru lane no longer in operation. The lot was clear of debris. The atmosphere inside was electric! My visit was on a UVA move-in Saturday. It was busy, but not packed at around 330 in the afternoon. It took little time to walk up and order. Menu boards make it easy, but if you're new I recommend looking at their online menu first. Service was super friendly by the young male staff. Some questions were asked on suggestions and customization. Payment is at the counter and they accept all major credit cards. There was no option to tip. Orders are called out and my pastrami on everything came out within 5 minutes. My wife got a chicken salad and daughter egg & bacon. I absolutely loved my pastrami on swiss. The everything bagel was not toasted and was soft with a nice chew. My daughter like the egg & cheese, but bacon lower quality. My wife thought the chicken salad was quality, but they forgot the lettuce. Ultimately they both liked their sandwiches. While enjoying our meal staff was wiping off tables and sweeping underneath tables. Trash is deposited by customers and it was within its boundaries. Also the restrooms were clean. A super operation all around. Great bagels and a strong value. They missed the mark a bit, but I will 100% return and if never been it's a must! 4.5 rounding down.

    WOW. Great great spot - no frills, no trendy touches, just very good bagels and coffee. We got two breakfast sandwiches on everything bagels (the bagels were chewy and so flavorful, and the eggs were particularly good), plus cinnamon raisin bagel with plain cream cheese (melty and gooey and perfect), and coffees. We brought home a few bagels as well (they put a small tub of cream cheese in the bag, which I didn't even ask for but was thrilled about!). The staff are efficient and nice, and the spot just feels so classic - I can't wait to come back the next time I'm in Cville!

    if you even drive through Charlottesville, STOP HERE. Cheap, fresh bagels made daily & even fresh cream cheese. Multiple options for any water with any diet. Delicious veggie burger & sides for your bagel sandwich

    Bodo's.... Did you really just give me a "tofu sandwich" with a slab of uncooked, unmarinaded tofu!? As a vegetarian, I loved you, but this is my second attempt to eat here as a vegan and it's been disgusting each time. Please, marinade or season your tofu! Additionally, your avocados have no flavor and have a slimy texture as if they were frozen. Additionally, 70% of the world is lactose intolerant and you don't have a dairy free, vegan cream cheese alternative. I'm truly disappointed in my recent dining experiences here. This was a one star bumped up solely for the bagel and how fast the food came out.

    Heard that when in Charlottesville, VA was told to give Bodo a try. Walked in and the place is organized and was greeted. Order taken and food came out quickly. Lots of indoor seating and the workers do their best to keep the area tidy. We ordered a few bagel sandwiches and lemonade. Reasonable prices and value for the buck! Fair is fair drop in and give Bodo's a try!

I recommend asking questions to make sure you're getting what you want. Hindsight I would have added protein to the green tomato Benedict. We also got a bowl that was much more like a salad and not like a hearty bowl. All were delicious, just not what was expected. We would return for sure!

The bar, front desk, valet and pool just steps away. The staff were like family and accommodations very comfortable. Many thanks to Antonio at the desk/valet, Tyler the bar manager and Tyler Cupec Director of Rooms for making it a trip worthy of a not only a 5 star review but also a future return as well.

Squeaky clean hardwood floors all over. Tasteful old furniture. Every staff member I spoke to was polite, courteous, and happy to help. The self serve stations for hot coffee, tea, and cold water was a convenient resource outside of the door. This inn appears to be made of several former homes that were turned into a campus of buildings making the Oakhurst Inn. It's not a single building. The small lawn in the center of the complex has benches, hammock, and a fireplace that seems welcoming and nice, but I wasn't aware of them until I left. There were a few problems during my stay. The inn requires guests to use valet parking which is $40 per night, not disclosed before my stay, and often required a long wait for the valet to return. This makes it hard to retrieve anything you need from your car. The front desk staff are often missing from the front desk - I had to wait 15 minutes for someone to come back and check me in on arrival. Likewise, the bartender is often away from station and you might wait 10 or 30 minutes for the bartender to return. There is no mini fridge or microwave in the hotel rooms. The pool area was extremely dark at night, making it tricky or dangerous to navigate. The pool water was lukewarm, not warm at all. The sauna was out of order and the doorway was small and obscured by chairs. Not accessible and difficult to find. This inn has no gym. The lobby is very small and has no seating for guests or places to hang their luggage, although the nearby lounge has a few leather couches and a fireplace that doesn't appear to be working. Not the most welcoming or convenient. Overall I don't think it's worth the hefty price tag and would stay elsewhere when I return to Charlottesville.
