If you are craving egg-sandwiches surely try one of their signature collection. I had the Sriracha Honey Sunrise egg-sandwich & felt it was breakfast done right ! The service was fast and attentive & they accommodated special requests smilingly. Inside had booths as well as regular seating, was well-lighted & neat. Will surely return soon! read more

4 stars for the service. Located in a busy shopping center next door to a Starbucks. Like the name, the location is well known for its Bagels. I've been looking for a local Bagel place and opted to check this place out. I ordered the everything bagel with cream cheese. By the time I was able to sit down to eat it, I felt like the Bagel was very dry and hard like a burnt piece of toast. For costing $6.00 I think the price is too high for the quality. read more

Staff is super helpful -- took a large order ahead of time and hustled to get it out on time even though they looked busier than usual. I truly appreciate their hustle in general. The updated menu is pretty good for corporate dining, but I recommend asking for half the "spread". Wish they had more outside seating - but I'm there early enough to grab the one remaining table. read more

I was looking for something different for breakfast and decided on a bagel. I ordered the double stack. It was double bacon, egg and cheese. It was served hot. Some places I've gotten cold to warm bagels. This was really good. Everything is made fresh. The service was excellent. I will return. read more

Solid place for bagels and Bagel sandwiches. I have had the brisket sandwich & sausage egg and cheddar. Service is great every time.

No place better to get some amazing breakfast food, especially with the way they load their bagels up! I always go for the smoked salmon cream cheese with extras and it's honestly a weekly staple. They've got plenty of seating around the area to get some schoolwork/work done as well, and the staff up front are really kind! Nice chill place to hang out and enjoy some good food. read more

Not bad! I asked a staff member which sandwich they recommend and they said the Farmhouse. Honestly, I really like it. The creamy and salty ingredients were a great combo, I also love that it comes in a cheddar bagel and toasted to perfection. I also tried their vanilla cold brew which I am obsessed with. It's such a good cold brew, again for some reason, I love the creaminess. I tried their caramel cold brew before and it was alright so this was a really great alternative! read more

This was my first visit, and the best part was how incredibly soft and flavorful the bagels and cream cheeses were! Between the jalapeño cheddar and the jalapeño bagels, I greatly preferred the jalapeño bagel for its softness and being less thick. I also tried the jalapeño cream cheese, the onion & chives cream cheese, and the garlic & herbs cream cheese, and my favorite was the onion & chives as it had the most distinct flavor, although I wish the garlic & herbs one would've had a stronger taste as it seemed like it would taste better... the jalapeño cream cheese wasn't very flavorful, but still a very good cream cheese base. The disappointing aspect was the customer experience, to put it broadly. The man who was taking my order made me repeat the bagels I wanted twice, and the cream cheeses I wanted three times. I felt like the third time he asked me about my cream cheeses, he knew what I wanted but he just wanted to mock me like he wasn't going to be penalized for it and wanted to have some cheap fun. The lady ringing me up was okay but didn't make an effort to give outstanding customer service. Also, I had to get my own utensils and napkins after finding where they are myself, without any acknowledgement or direction from their part. Additionally, the cream cheeses all came in the same, clear, cheap plastic containers and I couldn't differentiate amongst them unless I opened them up and sniffed them. All in all, the customer experience was really cheap and low-effort. The ambiance of the establishment was relaxed with a lower standard of expectations from the customers, but thankfully the store was largely clean. If the staff had prioritized being friendly, smiling, and guiding customers to the utensils and napkins, I would've been okay with the cheap cream cheese containers. Hopefully the management takes this seriously and takes the human interaction component of dining up a notch or two - be happy and friendly, the food is great! read more

Employees attitude. Just go through the motions. Do not toast, they burn. Very stingy with the cream cheese. Don't slather across bagel. Just put the cream cheese mostly in the middle . Have to ask employee to spread the cream cheese around bagel. read more

Pros: staff is incredibly friendly and amazingly efficient when it comes to food prep. The store itself is very clean and has ample seating both inside and out. The coffee is also pretty decent, and the Twice baked hash brown, while small, is pretty darn good as well. Cons: Price. $30 for two sandwiches and basic coffee is a bit much. This high cost is made worse by the fact that my Asiago cheese bagel was the most tasteless bagel I've ever eaten. Seriously, Vons brand bagels taste significantly better. Thankfully, I the hash brown I also ordered helped confirm I didn't have COVID. Even my friend thought the food tasted off; the onions on her Everything bagel were INCREDIBLY bitter. And while the BASIC coffee was good, it wasn't $5 good. My advice is to hit the bakery at the nearby H-Mart. Better food, better prices, and better coffee. read more

Staff is nice, but bagels are like pancakes and cream cheese has no taste. East Coast is so much better. read more

I have had the sausage and egg sandwich. That was pretty tasty and it paired perfectly with their fresh orange juice. I really appreciated their delicious blueberry bagels. You can order a dozen and freeze those for breakfasts. They go well with tea or coffee. Service has also been exceptional each time I have gone there. Finally, 3 doors away is a Starbucks so you can get the coffee to go with those bagels. read more

If you're looking for a good bagel sandwich to start your morning off, you won't be disappointed! :) Staff is usually always slammed and working at a fast pace, regardless they always remember to stay kind. The environment is well kept and clean too. Most importantly the quality of food is always fresh! The honey siracha sunrise hits differently! The combo of everything bagels with cheese, a spicy n sweet cream cheese and protein is a risky success! Portions being spot on is probably what makes it come together so well. read more

We were the only ones in line to place our order but the staff was not paying attention to us at all. I barely ordered my food and I didn't even know of he heard me but my husband didn't get a chance to order his bagel. The guy just walked away and started working on multiple orders at once. I think they were other internet orders since no one else was in the store but us. It really turned us off with how we were treated and almost ignored. I don't even remember if I liked my bagel that I actually got. read more

Fast and friendly service. Pristine! Great deals. Fresh bagels and freshly squeezed OJ. Plenty of seating! Heads and shoulders above their sister brand. Highly recommend. read more

We love going to this place for Bagels. We try to get there early so my husband can get Pumpernickel bagels. read more

I've ordered at Bruegger's a few times at this location. They are conveniently located in the HMart plaza so there's tons of parking. This location is in the corner and offers indoor seating. I've always ordered and left. Customer service is inconsistent-some days they are approachable and friendly, some days they're not. Food is always amazing here, always made the same. My fave and go to is the farmhouse. read more

First time coming here. I order their farmhouse, style bagel sandwich on top of an everything bagel. Everything was made fresh and cooked order. I didn't like how my bagels were toasted to the level of burnt. The fried egg in the middle was fine. The peppered egg was also salty. Staff and service was Ok. I didn't like how the staff was preparing my bagel and then still chatting with another staff member. I'll come back again but probably to get a traditional bagel and cream cheese spread instead. read more

The best Bagel shop anywhere in Orange County by far! This place is busy and has excellent choice of the best tasting real Bagels bar None. Outstanding service and quick turnaround for the patrons, tight but beautifully constructed interior designed for a long line and efficient flow of traffic and customers! They are probably the most successful Franchise of the Bruegger's because pound for pound and square feet for square feet, they produce the maximum profits! The bagels are hot and chewy and the stuffings are plenty! I love their Lox on Jalapeño Bagel served warm, Cheese Bagels with eggs and ham. Yum yummy! Try. read more

Worse service ever when I arrived I told them I was there for a pick up order the lady shakes her head no & say there's no order under that name I went to my car to get my phone to show her my order she then tells me "they took it" I said who took it she says Door Dash I said this was a pick up order she then goes & check in the system & see my order & realized she was wrong & hurry to make my order she gives me my coffee & then walk away with no apology then the other lady hand me my sandwich with no apology if I didn't already pay for it I would've left it there & walked out I will never return to this location! read more

Incredibly rude staff!!!! I came in with my fiancée and the entire staff was rude and unhelpful! Will never come back again!

I go to this bruegger's every weekend! i feel like noah's bagels has better bagel selection, but this place is a solid choice if you like standard BEC bagels. Numerous times they have forgotten my spread for a siracha honey sunrise bagel, BUT i usually say it's best to order there and watch them make your bagel and then check out, because they can forget sometimes. otherwise the staff is very nice and fast making orders. the line can get pretty long though so beware of that and times you go. the inside is your regular bagel place. overall it's good enough for me to keep coming here for my weekend bagel fix. read more

Coffee, dark roast is just terrible tasting coffee. Everything bagel was more flat than round, pretty salty.

Delicious, amazing, scrumptious. I ordered the Western bagel sandwich with the poppy bagel. The chipotle sauce hit the spot and it was so scrumptious. read more

Well - I don't understand the haters. Was lured in several times by the free egg and cheese sandwich with large drink purchase and was impressed with bagel quality - and cold brewed mocha coffee drink also. Yeah - not the cheapest around - but always fresh and tasty. Everything bagel is favorite Classic. Well run at fast pace to handle typically long line in the morning. read more

Bagels always taste a day old. Food doesn't taste fresh in general and it's not cheap to accept such quality. They're also always out of some things even early in the day. read more

Absolute worst Brueggars location. Slow, unattentative staff. As of store characteristic serving people first in the morning, it's a shame that people are running customer's morning. I cannot understand why the bad customer service I've been going to Brueggar for years. I was excited to have a bagel sandwich this morning but it happens to be the worst bagel place I've been to. It seems that their bagels have gotten smaller and tougher when you eat them. They used to be chewy and now they are hard even when fresh. There should be a better place here are in Irvine for bagels. I will not be coming to this establishment again. read more

I was craving a bagel after visiting Starbucks next door. I wanted a cinnamon cream cheese spread or something sweet. The woman behind the counter seemed annoyed that I was there. She said they don't have cinnamon but rather honey walnut & strawberry. I decided on strawberry. She quickly made my bagel took my $5 bill and gave me coin change back. I sat outside to eat. Remembering I saw a plain bagel said $1.69. I noticed on my receipt it said I paid $4.30. Wow - what? I go back inside to read the menu boardand it still says $1.69 for a plain bagel. I ask a different woman behind the counter. A younger man interrupts my conversation with her and says "Yep! That's what it says on the board - right under. A plain bagel is $1.69. With cream cheese it's $3.99! Yup!" I look at the woman I intended to speak with and say "So to add cream cheese to my plain $1.69 bagel is another $2.30?" She nods her head. You've gotta be kidding me. I won't be back. read more
