Delicious! The texture of the bagels is perfect. Went at a busy time on Saturday afternoon so 20 minutes between ordering and bagels ready (ordered 2 sandwiches) so not ideal for if you're in a hurry but worth the wait! read more

Call Your Mother Deli just opened this past Friday, May 1, 2026 in the Atlas Walk section of Virginia Gateway. It's located in the space formerly occupied by Cold Stone Creamery. I stopped in late on a Sunday morning (May 3) to check them out. There was a line out the door and down the sidewalk when I arrived. I got in line and someone from the staff was passing out menus to folks in line to help facilitate quicker ordering. There was about 15 people in line in front of me - it took about 20 minutes of waiting in line to get inside and up to the register. I noticed there were A LOT of folks walking in to pick up "to-go" orders that they had placed via their web site/online. Folks who do this don't need to get in line - they proceed to the pick up counter. Call Your Mother will send you a text message to let you know your order is ready - for both online and in person orders. I ordered a Bacon Sun City breakfast sammich: Bacon, egg, and cheese - and I selected a Cheddar bagel for the sammich. And double the bacon and cheese. There is not much interior seating - so don't count on eating in. There are 4 two-top tables and that is it. And currently no outdoor seating. I paid with Apple Pay and waited for my text. It took about 10 minutes for my order to come up. Pretty good breakfast sandwich! Next time I will request "crispier" bacon. I wish they offered a wider variety of bagels - as my favorite three bagels ARE NOT offered by them: (Jalapeño-Cheddar, Salt & Rosemary, and Garlic-Onion). Call Your Mother has a whole pink and aqua color scheme vibe going on. Even the restroom is painted in bright pink with Alligator wall paper trim! Service was very good! I will be back to try out some other menu items! #CallYourMother read more

The service was great. The staff behind the counter were friendly. The taste of the tuna was good- not overly dressed and had a good flavor. However, can you see the tuna salad in the bagel? Look hard. For a $12 sandwich, it should come with more than just a thin layer of tuna salad. ‍ read more

Sandwiches have been good, not great. The maple salt bagel is wonderful. The service is very good. The messed up our order once and when I ran back in to tell them they had already realized it and had my correct sandwich ready, let us keep the incorrect order, and threw in a pink and white cookie to make up for it! Coffee is really good too. I expected it to be too sweet and my vanilla latte was perfect. read more

I heard this place was popular so had to check it out myself. The area was small but the bagels was very good. I got the thunderbird. Originally did not have a good first taste because it felt different but I think the honey definitely makes the bagel have flavor. It was unique and the right portion sizes and would recommend. read more

The food was "okay" for what I paid for it. The food was ordered for takeaway and was made to order service which was good. The staff is friendly and answered questions about the menu. The place in Gainesville has a decent atmosphere like a "small dine-in" place similar to pizza places. So the seating is limited. Overall, my experience was just above average but would try the place again as I enjoyed the food and the experience of the service. read more

I'm not sure what all the hype is for this deli... sandwiches on chewy bagels. (without a pickle!) I got a Classic chicken- nothing special except that someone else made it for me- instead of me cutting the insides of the bagel out to craft a sandwich. I won't be busting the door down to eat there again... Cost for two sandwiches and two bags of chips with a $2 tip- $30.00. read more

Decided to try Call Your Mother today since lines were too long when it first opened. I ordered the tuna melt. It was delicious. I also ordered the latkes. These were very different from the latkes I'm used to. It wasn't your typical potato pancake. I was disappointed. It was rectangular and thick. I wouldn't order those again. Service was great. read more

Sandwiches were fresh and veggies crisp. I had the yuca gluten-free option instead of the bagel so I can't comment on the quality of the bagels. But the turkey sandwich was delicious. Will be back. I also appreciate that they are eco friendly and don't use a lot of plastic. The only thing that was missing was a pickle! read more

Thought the bagels were chewy and not flavorful. Sandwich ingredients are abundant and tasty. Service was busy and not a very big place. Will definitely come back and try some others. read more

Just got the basic breakfast bagels with butter and cream cheese, but both were asked to be toasted and neither was toasted. They were both warm, but the bagels were very chewy. I like a crispy bagel that is TOASTED. The lines were long, not enough tables. There is only one bathroom. I thought the prices were extremely expensive for what you get. The BLT is almost $15. All the lunch sandwiches were high. The coffee was good and the service was friendly, but most likely will not return. There is a better bagel shop closer to my house and cheaper. They actually toast their bagels read more

Best bagel I've had in recent memory. So good. The service was friendly and professional. It was pretty busy and I didn't wait long for my food. Will be in rotation for my Saturday morning breakfast cheat meal. read more

Excellent bagel sandwiches/deli and a great location for people on the Bristow/ Gainesville side of Linton Hall/route 29!! In the same shopping area where Starbucks and Panera are. Don't have to travel far for good bagel sandwiches. We ordered the Jetski, Edgewater, and Bacon sun city. A sub bagel is just a change in the flavor- we chose the cheddar. A bagel flat is just a "flattened"bagel before it's cooked. The bagel also was excellent as it was the perfect chewy texture and flavorful. Plan on going back to just get bagels only and see how they are on its own! I would highly recommend ordering online for pickup. They were prompt with my order online that I placed 2 hours ahead of time and the sandwich was nice and warm. Walked by a long line of people out the door and walked right in and grabbed my bag on their Togo shelf!!! Accurate order, on time and tasted great. Only suggestion my husband made is his Jetski could have had a bit more meat. He's a big eater. My veggie sandwich was perfect proportion size for me. Hoping for the best for this new deli! Hours looks like is 6:30- 2pm everyday weekdays. Until 3 on weekends. read more

Good bagels and interesting sandwiches. Really small place. Wished they had more tables. We went there a few days after they opened. It was crazy inside and extremely noisy. Also it would be nice if they have a few tables outside. read more

Great bagels with a lot of different options. Very friendly staff. A wonderful addition to Gainesville, Va.
