The restaurant was clean and busy, so good sign. Went here with my family while on vacation. I ended up getting a breakfast bagel and holy crap was that thing amazing! I find myself measuring other bagels against this bagel and unless I do it myself, they all fail. Horribly. So, unless you want to ruin yourself for all other future bagels ,avoid this place. You have been warned. read more

Normally I prefer the real New York style bagels, you know, boiled and baked with a dense chew to them, but I needed to get some bagels for a work meeting and I didn't know of any real bagel shops in this area. I know Einstein Bagels are more fluffy like, but not as bad as those Costco bagels, sort of like bread donuts! These will do cause I'm here. This Einstein Bagel is located right off the 44 on the north side of the freeway on Dana Drive. Easy to find and plenty of parking. Inside looks all clean and nice, in a chain store kinda way. Service is friendly and it was easy to get a dozen bagels. I just pointed to the ones I wanted, no weird ones like jalapeno cheese or anything like that, just normal stuff like the everything bagel and onion and poppy seed and garlic. I got some spreads cause you can't just show up with bagels and nothing to put on them. I just wish there was a toaster at the meeting room. Ok, paid and outta here, easy in and out. The bagels tasted as expected, better than Costco at least. Everyone was happy,at least I brought them something! Maybe I'll just go with donuts next time .... read more

Very fresh, very tasty, lots of healthy choices of sandwiches, I thought it would just be bagels.

Unbelievably rude! I went in with a good mood and the girl behind the counter put a quick stop to that. It'll be hard to go back.

Don't let the pictures fool you. They are so chintzy with the bacon and cheese. Great bagels terrible sandwiches! read more

This is our go to for a quality bagel. The staff is friendly always the service too. The place is clean and it's very inviting, it's always busy but we enjoy going because it's worth it. The breakfast sandwiches are super good. read more

Whenever I am in town to see my Girlfriend we always get breakfast bagel sandwiches from this place. They're always tasty and never disappoint. read more

Great bagels to a Northern California boy. Never have been to NY for the standard! Everything, toasted, with plain schemer and a cup of their Joe to go. Coffee is the perfect blend and temp. At least once a week visit. Always aware of the line and display great team work to get everyone served as quickly as possible. Thanks EBB for keeping me upright in the AM. read more

I picked up breakfast for everybody on Black Friday. The place was packed. But the order came out quick. Everybody love their bagels sandwiches. read more

Great little quick breakfast spot!! Food was very quick & delicious. The manager Maddie was so friendly & helpful. Would definitely come back again!!! read more

Horrible service!Family has been coming here for years but no longer will! The way they handled this situation was such a turn off..what happened to customer service?!..They wouldn't even honor a $5 coupon that expired which was on a gift card which we were buying $33 worth. At which point do u handle each situation appropriately..is it worth losing a customer over $5 & who spends $100's over a few months!?..or honor the stupid $5! OBVIOUSLY THEY JUST DON'T CARE! read more

Once again five stars for the win. Their bagels are the best flavored and tasty in this town. I had the ham and cheese with avocado and smear. They were fantastic. And I had a chocolate coffee mocha blended. It was better than Dutch Brothers. I will go here before I ever go to Dutch Brothers again. And about $4 cheaper. read more

I love the bagels but when you get one to go they are not toasted! Even when you ask for it to be doubled toasted. Maybe they need a new toaster. At this point I will just take the bagels home to toast myself. It's frustrating eating an untoasted bagel with cream cheese! read more

The bagels and sandwiches are amazing! The service is fast and food delicious! Give them a try! read more

The restaurant itself is nice, not a lot of seating, but they do have some outside tables, which was great. The employees were all friendly and gave us time to make our decisions. We ordered the cheddar, bacon and egg on an everything bagel, the smoked brisket cheddar on cheddar jalapeño bagel, the bacon, avocado and tomatoes with egg on a plain bagel, and a cinnamon sugar bagel. Everything tasted delicious and was fresh. It was a great way to start our day. read more

Great bagels, friendly, efficient and helpful employees, such a great experience on our recent visits.

Such a great Einstein's. The staff is so sweet and kind. I was there when the manager was working, and you can tell he really cares about his staff and guests. 10/10 read more

The bagels here are tasty - I enjoy the consistency, I always know what I'm going to get. The consistency also extends to their service, I can usually count on it being subpar. Today at 6:44am, a young woman took my order, begrudgingly. I get the same thing every time. A toasted bagel with a schmear and I give my name. I'm used to them not getting my name right, I mean it IS five letters long (they made it six today, even after she had me spell it....TWICE). I'm also used to them not toasting the bagel like I ask for - because my expectations are so low now, I let it go. I'd let this review go if this was the first time this has happened - but it's a regular occurrence. These front end folks have ZERO customer service skills. Nada. None. It's really unfortunate because everything else about the place isn't bad, and I do not want to see it go out of business (that happens too frequently around here), but I hope that management sees this and makes a concerted effort to train their people that a smile, eye contact, a friendly "Good Morning", goes a long way. read more

Use of Gloves. Observed employees handle food wearing same gloves used to handle money. Also the male employee was sweeping the floor and without taking gloves off and/or washing his hands switched to handle ready to eat food. read more

Love the food , bit pricy, can be quick it depends, the line gets a bit crowded could update the interior. Not the friendliest of customer service but not bad read more

1st. Time this morning the jalapeño & cheese with bacon was fabulous the bagel was a pleasure to eat , When I walked in I knew it's was going to be good the smells had me drooling, the servers were great polite,answered all my questions since I was a newbie fabulous experience. Thank you for making my morning. Keep up the good work. read more

The staff were really great. Super attentive to me and helped me out. For fast breakfast, the food was not great. If you go here get a bagel not a breakfast sandwich and you're good to go. I'm not sure if Einstein has always been this way or if there quality has slowly gotten worse. read more

Yummy bagels! We got these bagels because we heard they were good and they definitely were. read more

Best bagels in Redding. Like there spread to. Called ahead so when we got there very thing was ready for us. Every time we head North we stop by to get a dozen bagels . Great product and good service!!! read more

Best bagels anywhere!! The staff is wonderful!! Recommend highly! My grandson and i eat here all the time

I generally like this place and I like all their bagels and breakfast sandwich options. The issue is that they make mistakes on orders quite often. I would say expect about 1 out of 3 orders to be incorrect. The other problem is in regard to pick up orders. There is a sign telling you where to go to pick up. For some reason employees will ignore you if wait there. Literally feels like they're avoiding eye contact or fiddling around with other things to avoid you. It's not because they're busy. It's very odd but expect to wait a while to get your pick up order. read more

Meh...wait, maybe I shouldn't start the review like that. So uhhh, walked in as a 1st timer and noticed the space inside was a bit tight with the people standing around waiting for their orders along with the folks sitting at tables. It wasn't clear where I should go to order, so I just looked for a register. Looking at the menu, it looked like this was a spot for bagel type sandwiches, but I only wanted a toasted bagel with cream cheese which I assumed I'd be able to get - If this option was on the menu, I sure didn't find it. Ordered a cheese jalapeno bagel, toasted with cream cheese, about 5 mins later my name was called to grab my order. Out of about the 6 people working behind the counter, I was never greeted coming in, nor after I picked up my order - no thank you, no have a great day, no come see us again, no nothing. I felt like I just had a discreet casual encounter and I was quietly walking away from the home trying to avoid the neighbors noticing LOL! Get in the car, drive away, open the order and BAM!!!! the fluckin' bagel ain't even toasted! Sum-ma-ma-bi*ch! Ooh I'm heated now. $6 for one jalapeno cheese bagel with a swipe of cream cheese and this lonely bagel missed the toasting party that I witnessed all the other bagels going thru...ugh! read more

Good food, good service. I'll keep coming back until something changes. My #1 go to for bagels. Way better than donuts and better for you.

Great bagel shop. Super yummy bagels the staff was really helpful in getting my ice coffee just right

FRESH delicious bagel sandwich's! Staff was very friendly, quick service and a clean environment.

Glad this place opens so early. The sandwich bagels are so good. The service was pretty fast despite they line to the door. Staff was friendly. read more

The place itself is great. I love Einstein's bagels. But the service at this location was atrocious. Soon as it was our turn to walk up and order, the guy at the counter just stared at us and then turned around and started doing other stuff. Came back after a minute and then asked us to step aside to take care of another customer. Finally getting a chance to order he was not paying attention to anything we asked for. Was to busy talking to his friends in line behind us. Our whole order came out wrong. After already waiting 15-20 minutes for our food we did not have time to wait again for them to fix it. Overall service if this location was appalling. No friendliness, no attention to customer in front of them and just crowded and uncomfortable. Unfortunate, because I love the company as a whole. read more

The bagel product (everything bagel with cream cheese) was as expected. And was great. As my wife went into the store to make the order, she found the staff to be not customer friendly and although she was in line to order, they gave more attention to several male customers according to her, and her comment to me was "I'll never order there again. She felt ignored because she is a female. read more

Best bagels in Redding, hands down!! The customer service is by far the best I have ever had at any business, honestly ever! I made a door dash bakers dozen order and received a few different bagels than what I was expecting. I called to ask if that's normal, or if that's standard, you get what you get, and talked with the manager (owner?) who said that's not normal and I should get the ones listed in the menu. He went above and beyond and made sure I received the bagels I was missing ASAP. We will continue to door dash Einstein Bros. and definitely go in to try more of their other food, which all look delicious. read more

I worked in customer service most of my life and when you walk up to the counter, the employee turns your back on you and another employee walks up and ask if we have been helped yet and we say no, she also turned her back on us with no acknowledgement from either of the employees. Waited a few minutes and still nothing, so we walked out. That is very poor customer service! read more

Picked up bagels on the way out of town. They were good. Nice chew to the bagels. Nothing fancy or to write home. Will stop back in next time we're in town. read more

We went to Einstein's today for the first time. The staff was quite friendly and helpful, patient as we figured out what we wanted. We got breakfast sandwiches that were just delicious and we took some bagels with us to freeze since we live pretty far away. Excellent food and terrific service! read more

Busy as all get-out on Sunday morning, but they got us in and out quick! Workers were courteous and made sure to check they understood your order. read more

Every sandwich is made very fresh and all ingredients blend nicely! We got there before closing time and they were very busy. Customer service was very good! Masks are not enforced in this location and most of the customers didn't wear masks. There is outdoor sitting with few tables. I'll visit again if I'm in the area. read more

Shame on me for being a return customer hoping for better results. Without fail bagels are made wrong and I'm ignored trying to get the attention of a staff member to ask to have it remade. Then a staff member has the audacity to tell me "'next time instead of yelling to get our attention just ask us we're happy to help" problem is I waited for 3 people to be helped and I was at the counter waiting patiently and I didn't yell. I just asked a question... 2 customers around me couldn't believe they let me stand there waiting as long as I did, do better. My fault for going back? I guess so... will I return? Yes. I'm a glutton for punishment but I love Einstein bagels, bummer! Lol read more
