    Vermonter with gourmet cheesy hash brown bagel
    Steve H.

    Went here for breakfast the day after thanksgiving and it was very popular. I ordered the Vermonter signature breakfast bagel sandwich in which sweet meets savory! Cage-free eggs with pork sausage, bacon, cheddar cheese, Honey Walnut Cream Cheese, and syrup, on a fresh-baked Maple French Toast Gourmet Bagel, but I swapped the bagel for a gourmet cheesy hash brown bagel. It was delicious and big enough to have two meals out of it. The eggs were cooked fresh and the honey walnut cream cheese was amazing.

    Was visiting by Raleigh and looked for breakfast spots , and this shop was the nearest from where we stayed. .. was crowded and it took sometime in the queue to place our order .. good seating arrangements inside to dine in.. lots of parking outside .. location wise it was ok . Price was also ok .. Service time could improve . Took us 15-20 mins just to order and get our coffee/ bagels . .. coffee was average . Was more watery and wish they could make it better. Bagel with cream cheese was good. .. I also ordered a bagel with egg and it was very very average .. not good at all. They do t make eggs fresh . And the bagel wasn't toasted enough to feel the crunch of the bread/ egg... thought of giving 2.5 , but gave a 3 because I didn't see many other breakfast shops around ..

    They call this a turkey sandwich. I call it a lettuce and onion sandwich.

    The response from corporate is the same canned boilerplate that is used every time someone complains. If a live person had actually read my post they would have seen that my first reaction was to contact customer support. It was only after I dinged them here did they take any notice. If they couldn't be bothered to respond the first time I reached out, why would I expect them to now?

    Previous years food sanitation scores

    I have been going to this Bruegger's location for 20 years and it is appalling how downhill it has gone in the past few years. I have never seen the service as bad as what I experienced today. I went ~2.5 hours before closing and they barely had any bagels left and it didn't look like they were baking any more. They were making all of the online orderers cancel their orders because they ran out of the bagels, but they were not clearly communicating that, so we witnessed multiple customers stand around for 10+ minutes before being told that their online orders weren't going to be fulfilled and that they needed to cancel it themselves and request a refund online. We went in the middle of the day on a Sunday; it wasn't very busy at all (~3 customers ahead of us in line), yet it still took us 30 minutes to receive our food from when we walked in the door. They had 4 employees working so I'm not sure what was taking so long since it wasn't busy & they barely had any bagels left to serve. At one point, we witnessed the cashier squat down behind the cash register to rest his head on the counter for multiple minutes. There were even customers that came up to the cash register to order that had to wait until he picked up his head and notice them to place their order. After waiting so long for my order, I checked it to make sure it was correct, and they had put the wrong cream cheese on my bagel. They originally offered to just give me a side of the correct cream cheese, but after some pushing, they ended up taking my bagel back, scraping off the wrong cream cheese flavor, and adding the correct flavor. Years ago, customers would place their order where they prepared their food and you could watch the employee make your order and provide any clarification they needed, which resulted in less order errors and more efficient flow in the store. The staff here used to be extremely fast at preparing food (I would estimate it took them less than a minute to prepare a bagel with cream cheese), but today it took the employee about 3 minutes to spread cream cheese on an already toasted bagel. While waiting, we also noticed that the restaurant's sanitation rating was a 90, which is significantly lower than comparable restaurants in the area. After searching in the database online, we saw that there were gross sanitation & food safety violations including team members failing to wash their hands, debris in the ice machine, prepared food being stored under food safe temperatures, and other food contamination issues. We also personally observed the food preparation areas being extremely dirty, and all sorts of residue smeared all over the walls, it is obvious that it had not been cleaned in a while. This location previously scored in the high 90s, but in recent years has scored in the low 90s. It is sad to see how bad this location has gotten recently, I used to love coming here. The poor service we witnessed today is extremely embarrassing and I hope the location manager and/or franchise owner speaks to the staff about their behavior and addresses the cleanliness issue.

    This isn't EXTRA CRISPY bacon.   Egg & Cheese with Bacon
    Alexis A.

    This Brueggers is always great and wonderful service, however my food wasn't cooked all the way. I asked for extra crispy bacon and it was raw. I'm paying $7 already I just want the correct order pleaseee. You have to cook the bacon twice for it to be crispy. I worked at a Brueggers previously.

    Every single bagel is sliced unevenly. What happened to slicing them by hand and not in an inconsistent machine. If it is sliced like this, it should not be given to the customer

    Bagels are good, but what makes this place special is the people. They work hard to please the customer.

    So the Bruegger rep said to contact customer support. I did. No response. Downgraded to 1 Star.

    Just wanted to take the time to clap for the staff here…read more I've only been here twice now. But both times the service was SO fast. I came here on a week day and it was packed but the kitchen seemed steady. Their service is very stream lined with pagers for food orders. There is a lot of seating but it also seems to be a place where a good chunk of people come to work. They have a library inside as well and the books at the time were all $3 ea. Today I came and it's a Sunday. As expected they were SLAMMED. Line to the door of people waiting and line to the door of people ordering. I still got my coffee in less than 5 min. People waiting on food were getting theirs in similar time. The staff was killing it! They have a large selection of baked goods (lots of laminated dough), fast casual breakfast & lunch, and a huge coffee menu. They also have gluten free options for food and about a dozen gf/df baked goods. They said they have separate prep space and changed gloves for gluten free food but it's a shared oven. I didn't have any issues though. To who ever is managing your kitchen and staff, you're doing a great job. To the staff, hats off Highly recommend this place for a light breakfast and good coffee, or just a good place to hang out on your laptop.

I came in a little after lunch shift the other day and was a bit indecisive about my order but the very patient and nice girl at the counter helped me decide. I ended up ordering the Meatball with Provolone. The sandwich was well made with large meatballs and both the bread and the meat tasted fresh. Previously I had issues with the line situation, but in this case there was only one other person in the restaurant, so that was less of an inconvenience. The other, more serious issue centered around gnats and flies. I can confidently say that was not an issue when I revisted the other day. I was pleased with my second visit and the friendly, helpful girl who served me, I believe her name was Leah. I plan to return and perhaps I can convince my work to cater from here in the near future.

"Giant" sandwich is somewhat true in that the bread is over-sized compared to sliced bread -- but meat was lacking for sure. Friendly greeting upon entering.

They have a wide variety of sandwiches (hogies, deli style, cheesesteaks, chicken cutlets), along with burger and salad options.

My only word of caution is that the Calabrian Ceasar dressing is quite spicy, so use with caution or pick another if you don't like spicy food. The bread, meat, and toppings were all fresh and brought unique flavors that worked very well together. There was a good amount of seating both inside and outside that was clean and well kept.

The sandwiches are great, prices are fair, and food always comes out quick. Both inside and outside seating is always nice and clean and the servers are friendly. I wish their bread was softer sometimes but I love the options they have. There's definitely something for everybody!
