I always seem to go in right before they close at 2 but everyone was very accommodating and the employees were super nice. I tried new bagels since they were out of everything bagels and they were very good. read more

Einstein Bros. Bagels - Burned around edge and cream cheese melted - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Richmond, Texas

I have gone a few times and they often get my order wrong. Today was a mess, I never got the egg on my bagel, even though I paid for it and my large mocha was only nearly half way filled. I don't think I'll be returning anytime soon! read more

Einstein Bros. Bagels - Large mocha only just over halfway filled when purchased! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Richmond, Texas

Now while I will say the employees are very kind, kindness doesn't make up for the disaster that was this morning. We had three people all together two who ordered two items and one that ordered three. One of the people asked for two of the same bagel with cream cheese, it did not come with cream cheese or even a side of cream cheese. One asked for a bacon avocado sandwich but to switch out the bacon to turkey, the first time we got our order three items were missing, all of his items were not there, we told the employees and they 'fixed it' after waiting for 20 additional minutes he got his sandwich with bacon (he does not eat pork) and two sides of cream cheese for the whole table. We were there 30 minutes and our order for three people was still not correct by the time we left. That is ridiculous. Hopefully we will never drop by again read more

I was attempting to use the "receive 2 free bagels with any purchase" deal that is offered on almost all receipts, after completing a survey. The shift lead and other employees said they cannot process it in the system because they don't know how to. I don't believe I'm the first person to complete the survey, bring in an old receipt with the validation code, and request the offer. It sucks because it seems like everyone should be trained on how to input this into the system. If nobody knows how to do it, take it off of the receipts. Very disappointing. read more

Today I ordered a 'Baker's Dozen' Bagels via their App (that means 13 bagels). Upon arrival at the counter I asked the employee "Are there 13 bagels in the box?" & the employee replied "Yes M'am". The container felt light so I opened it and counted only 9 bagels! SMH!! And to think....this establishment is named after 'Einstein'??? S M H If the Asiago Bagels weren't so Yummy I wouldn't come back! read more

Bagel served cold and tasted terrible. I love Einstiens but this location is bad. I did a pick up order and ordered a vanilla iced coffee, turns out you have to pour scolding hot coffee on to ice yourself in a very thin plastic cup. They didn't even have vanilla out. Terrible iced coffee. I threw it away. Nothing worse than a bad breakfast to start the day. read more

They just recently opened this month. The Texas brisket breakfast bagel was really good. You can switch it to a different bagel. It was very busy but staff seem to be organized. Probably ending their trainings at this time. It was packed so we took ours to go. Parking is free but the traffic flow is werid. Make sure to drive super slow and be prepared to drive in reverse when it gets busy. read more

So, you all really decided to burn the bagel and still give it to me instead of making a new one. If the service hadn't been so slow, I would have tried to get a refund. read more

Einstein Bros. Bagels - Burned Food - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Richmond, Texas

Richmond has a new location and it's very busy with locals checking them out. I waited in the drive through line for about ten minutes but it was worth it. I hadn't visited an Einstein Bagel restaurant in a few years and was surprised by the menu and quality of food. I ordered the Texas Brisket Egg Sandwich and loved it. I'm a major cinnamon roll fan so I tried theirs and was it good, not very dense with lots of icing. I'm happy to add this fast food option to my quick breakfast searches. read more

Einstein Bros. Bagels - Front entrance - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Richmond, Texas

Tired of giving this place a chance. :( Bagel was cold and soggy with like no shmear! I understand a bunch of kids work here, but can they at least be trained in customer service and how to serve a bagel? It's thrown together every time and leaves me disappointed. read more

@einsteinbros recently opened in the area #richmondtx. Tried it for the first time, and enjoyed it, We went with the Garden Avacado on Gourmet Cheddar Jalapeño Bagel and the Cheddar Cheese Egg Sandwich on Gourmet Green Chili Bagel. both items were fantastic, made me realize that I have been missing out, not having tried Einstein Bro's before. Also want to highlight that the restaurant was snice and clean and the staff was super friendly read more

Einstein Bros. Bagels - I had two bagels I ordered and they say toasted and they didn't do that - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Richmond, Texas

Every time I come here there is an issue. Just this location and I'm so annoyed it's the closest one to my job. Came last week, they gave me the wrong sandwich completely, I never said anything cause I was already at work. Just left. My sandwich is not toasted even though I asked. Meaning my cheese isn't melted it's just like a cold piece of cheddar, which is crazy. On top of nobody was in the drive through or really inside and it still took them 13 minutes. Seeing as my sandwich wasn't toasted, I'm confused why it took so long. I guess they are at work so they aren't mindful of people mornings trying to get a quick bite and go to work. Oh & I tried to call to let them know my sandwich is wrong. Of course there phone is off the hook rining busy. TERRIBLE!! Skip this location if you can!!!! 3/10 read more

Einstein is a classic. This is a chain so there are multiple locations. I like how the bagels are predictable and I know what I'm going to get every time without issues with flavor. read more

It was a cold weekday morning and my daughter was hungry and we had time before school so here we are 7am. We each purchased a different bagel sandwich. Hers had bacon and mine was the fiesta one with egg white. They were messy to eat but good. Service was friendly. They have latte options so o got a vanilla latte as well. My daughter had a pepperoni pizza bagel to go to take for her lunch. She said it was good. read more

i understand that it gets busy at times, but the service was honestly horrible, while deciding my order, the customer next to me was explaining how she was waiting 40 minutes for her bagel. i also waited around 40 minutes aswell for my one toast and bagel, the server torin, was incredibly slow and was on her phone half the time, i feel bad for the other people who were actually working and the other half who were just doing nothing. Torin gotta go im sorry she absolutely ruined my morning man read more

Food is good. Place is clean. Timing is absolutely horrendous. I've placed many online orders hours in advance and they are consistently late every single time. Not just a little late but not even started when it's time for pick up. If you're ordering a brunch box in advance, plan on adding 20-30 extra minutes. I am not even exaggerating. They never even have the boxes started until I show up 5 minutes past the scheduled time. I order somewhere between 5-5:15 am for a pick up at 7-7-20. Plenty of time to get stuff together and it's never ever been ready when I get there. Ever. Plenty of people standing around and just one person scrambling. I am sure they are doing their best but they've really gotta get it together with the timing. It's been about a year now that I've been ordering ahead and it's been a disappointment every time. At least they are consistent. I can count on them to be late. So now I guess I just have to place the order with an expected pick up time 30 minutes earlier than I really need it. Or just order from Chick-fil-A. read more

Business states open on both google and yelp. I just drove further away from work as I've been waiting for them to open since the next closest location is about 30 mins away. You can clearly see there are tons of bagels prepared and many cars in the parking lot. However they must still be training since there are closed signs on every side of the building. When you try to call ahead it doesn't go through to the restaurant at all. I would expect this from a small business not a large company with numerous locations. Please update your true operating hours and dates accordingly. What a waste of time! read more

I am beyond done with this Einstein Bros location. Every single time I order from here, they mess up my order without fail. Today was the last straw. I placed my order through DoorDash, then called twice to make sure they got it right. Not only did I receive the wrong food, but when I called back, the employee who answered had a nasty attitude. He insisted he "made it himself" and there was "no way" it was wrong -- even though I was literally holding the wrong order in my hands. When I went up there to fix it, he had the nerve to tell me to "calm down." Why would I be calm when you messed up my order, gave me attitude, and admitted fault? And even after all that, when they finally handed me "the corrected food," it was STILL wrong. At this point, the entire staff , especially the general manager who clearly allows this nonsense needs to be fired and replaced. This location is consistently incompetent, dismissive, and unprofessional. Save yourself the headache and take your money elsewhere. read more

No Public WiFi - Misleading Advertisement I stopped by this location for breakfast with some time to kill before an appointment, planning to use the advertised free WiFi to get some work done. Unfortunately, there was no public WiFi available. The food was decent, though pricey--$12 for a bagel sandwich and coffee. Had I known there was no WiFi, I would have chosen a different place to stop. read more

Einstein Bros. Bagels - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Richmond, Texas

When this location opened recently, I was very excited to have their bagels offered in our location. Understanding that there are growing pains as the staff learn the systems and gets comfortable in their roles. Their bagels and shmears were as advertised and enjoyable. I tried going through the drive-through today hoping to order a half dozen bagels and shmears, only to be told that I couldn't do that and if I would order this inside, they could fulfill this. I explained to the employee that I have been waiting in line and currently stuck, I requested if there was anything they could do. They responded that they could only provide me a box of assorted bagels. Is this a new policy? It surely is not on the outside menu. Obviously they don't need my business and I am happy to support the local shops, who provide actual customer service. And don't bother contacting the Einstein Bros website, the location does not appear, or I would have put in the issue on their contact page. read more

This review is for my visit to Einstein Bagels at 600 W. Sam Houston Parkway in City Centre. I checked the availability of my family's bagel choice and was told (and saw) that there were 3 left. I ordered, paid and waited to be called. After another 10 minutes, I was told that the bagel choice was sold out. 1. Why aren't they keeping track of their inventory? 2. Why didn't they pull the bagels right away for my order? 3. When the number gets low, why can't they keep track of how many are sold? That's 20 minutes lost and a hungry disappointed family who eat only pretzel bagels. What an inconvenience and waste of time! What is their definition of good customer service? This isn't it. If you can't trust an eating place to give you what you ordered (and paid), why go back there again? I won't. read more

Along with many other reviews here.. I will never patronize Einstein Bros. again. Literally EVERY SINGLE TIME they get my order wrong. Doesn't matter if it's an online/pickup, drive thru, or inside - their employees could not give a sh*t about getting anything right. Something is always wrong or missing. Today was the final straw: Drive thru - ordered turkey/bacon/avocado lunch sandwich. Get my order and drive away, only to realize she didn't give me the included chips. Drive back, get them. Get home to eat my lunch and my turkey/bacon/avocado sandwich has NO BACON OR AVOCADO - literally the point of the sandwich - and of course the most expensive ingredients. YET AGAIN, I have to call them about it and the "fix" is either I drive back or she'll give me a refund - with me giving her my cc # over the phone... DO YOU SERIOUSLY THINK I'M GOING TO TRUST YOU WITH MY CC, WHEN I CAN'T TRUST YOU TO MAKE AN EFFING SANDWICH?!?! I see the store reply to these other bad reviews... "not our standards" "sorry you were disappointed" "we'll raise the bar" "will pass along to our team" WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?????? I'll never know, because I finally learned my lesson to never order from you again. read more

I brought a Baker's Dozen box of Einstein bagels for the office and I am definitely not going back. Let's get the positive out of the way. I brought 4 different types of bagels and two different types of cream cheese. Everyone agreed that the bagels and cream cheese tasted fantastic. The negatives were on the service side of this bagel shack. I walk in with a pleasant good morning greeting, no response from the two ladies working behind the counter. I ordered the $19.95 Baker's Dozen and asked what were the bagel flavor options. One of the lady said to pick from the display case. I went with plain, everything, apple cinnamon, and maple French toast. I wasn't informed that there was a 80 cents up charge for non traditional bagel. I didn't see it on the display menu either. I only discovered the up charge after I got home and reviewed the receipt. Panara Bread does not have up charge for their non tradition bagels in their Baker's Dozen box. In addition, I had no ask why there was no cream cheese in my package. The same lady said to get two containers from the cooler in front of the counter. Sbe did not offer a paper bag. No thank you or goodbye when I was leaving. Panara Bread it is for my next bagel purchase. read more

Arrived at approximately 11am. They had hardly any bagles left and they had no intention to make any either. Nether one of the staff seem to know what was going on or cared that they didn't. This was three hours before closing. read more

Im a regular customer at the memorial location . (Which i love!) But i live out in Richmond. So far I've been to this location 3 times since they have opened and all 3 times i have been disappointed. At first i was soft hearted thinking it's new location give them time. but let's be real it's been months! And same non smiling faces who can't get a basic order right without the delay , i literally get a basic bagel cut nothing else . They forgot a bagel in my bag second time they forgot my whole order number and had me waiting 25 min, now the third time my bagels are cut horribly (look at pic!) . I feel like the manager really needs to re hire. Not sure what's going on but it's literally not rocket science it's bagels! Not a steak house with medium rare steaks being made, it's JUST bagels! waste of time and $$$ read more

Don't go to this place . Ordered , waited over 20mins. They called other customers that was in back of me . When I asked about the order they side they ran out . Also not offering nothing else but my refund. Time wasted. read more

The food is fine, don't get any of the lemonades or water based drinks...the water used to make them has an after taste...i trashed mine cause I didn't wanna risk it. I have to take off two points because of typical Eninstein Bros Bagels franchise shenanigans -- they wont toast your bagels if you buy a dozen..this is silly. They wont toast them even if a customer specifically requests it..I saw all these bagels being toasted but they refused to taste my dozen even when I specifically requested them to be toasted. They need to point this out explicitly on their menu so people who want the convenience of taking dozen or half dozen bagels for a gathering also pack a toaster in their car and an 1000 feet extension cord to plug the toaster in if the local city park has outlets (rolls eyes). For this I have to take off a solid 2 stars. Staff is nice and there is plenty of them...also Einstein continues to employ 1 Barbie Oven for their entire store so everything is going to take longer...and God forbid that oven breaks...they usually just shut down the store when the Barbie oven breaks..thats what happened on my last trip to Einstein Bagels memorial location. And no..they never update anything on social media or google. This location currently shows as "temporarily closed".... updated 06/16 Maple Breakfast Bagel is a definite win - the egg is cooked fresh and not from a carton. Orange Juice - Good and Fresh - worth the money if you have a craving. Staff is nice and caring as always. read more

Too loud and the order taker could hardly understand what we were saying. We'll go back to the bagel cafe on mason rd

The Service was amazing. Christopher made sure we were taken care of. I ordered incorrectly and the young lady said don't worry and she made my drink as I wanted it. She was very gracious. They gave us a senior discount without asking. Can't wait to go back! I love the Maple French toast bagel with honey walnut cream cheese. So excited that this place is here but want them to open a place in Brazos Town Center closer to us. read more

The worst customer service. Walked in and I was the only customer. The staff all had their backs turned and talking and in phones. They were using profanity in their conversation while I stood there unassisted. I'd fire the whole crew working on 8/27/24 if I were manager. read more

Aside from both our orders being wrong, giving us the wrong bagels for our breakfast sandwiches, this is not the Einsteins I remember. There is something wrong with how the bagels are made. They don't look right and the texture is wrong. They are weirdly soft and chewy inside. I can consider myself an Einsteins Bagel connoisseur as many years ago my son baked bagels at an Einsteins and we tried most of them. Also the coffee in my latte tasted burned. read more

Great food. Have been several times by --the bagel with lox is really good, and tasty turkey at lunch time is a favorite too. Employee RIchard is very helpful and pleasant. Goid food and great people. Very highly recommended Great job Richard!! read more

We are regular customers of the beltway location and have been so excited for months to have a location so much closer to home. I was really disappointed this morning when I went in to order and was told because this is a franchise that they don't honor the Monday special price for the baker's dozen boxes. read more

We go here every week since it opened and every week we order the same thing, and every week it's wrong. My husband has gone back almost every week to have the order fixed. By way of example, they left the egg and cheese out of my egg and cheese sandwich, they will forget to put on the aioli, they will forget parts of the order as a whole. I have always loved Einstein but this is ridiculous. We should not have to make double trips constantly for an egg sandwich. read more

Waited over 25 min at 11:21 am today. Drive thru seemed to get there orders but those that ordered inside waited forever. Unacceptable for bagels that are already cooked and an egg sandwich. read more

Long lines, inside and outside at drive-thru. Tried the Texas Brisket sandwich and not impressed at all. The brisket was chewy and hard to eat. Brisket was scarce, ended up taking it out anyways as it tasted like plastic. Will chalk it up to them still under training. Probably try again in 60 to 90 days. Hope they can get it together. read more
