One of my favorite treats, especially for breakfast, is a freshly made New York Style Bagel with…read morecream cheese. It not only tastes good but it seems to energize me. Years ago, on Saturday mornings, before I went to teach my College Psychology class, I would stop at a bakery and had a bagel with cream cheese. They were so good. Today, after hearing so much about this place, I decided to go and try their Bagels out. After being awarded the Triad Yelper of the Year 2024 Award at the Yelpies Award Ceremony last year, an event that honored the highest-performing Yelp Elites, I decided that this year, as an All-Star Yelp Elite, I not only wanted to be the first to discover new restaurants and bring them to the attention of the public, but also to uncover those found in hidden paths that for one reason or another have not reached the public in its totality. And Donnie D's Bagels & Deli in Daleville, Virginia, is the perfect example. When I arrived I was aware that their Roanoke, Virginia location had been through a fire and was in the process of renovation. When they first opened I was one of the first ones there trying out their bagels and watching them make them. I invite you to go read my review and see my photographs accompanying it. Their bagels were so good that I missed them and that is why I came to this location to see if they also made them here. I was under the impression that they also made their own bagels here. But it seems that their bagel operation was done in their Roanoke location and they were sent here. Because one of the things they had here was a sign that said that while they were renovating their other location in Roanoke, they were having their bagels shipped from a bakery in New Jersey. What they were making here were their biscuits. When I arrived, I was very impressed with this small but cozy, little deli and bagel shop. The fist thing you see is a display case with lots of bagels of all kinds. The bagels looked big and plumpy. I walked over to the ordering counter and a friendly young lady greeted me and when I asked her about the bagels, told me the story I just wrote about above. Since I was here already I ordered a Plain Bagel with Cream Cheese and a bottle of Starbucks Cold Caffè Mocha. The bagel was good but not as good as Donnie D's, which I still remember when I had one at their Roanoke location. It was warm, crispy on the outside and nice and soft in the inside. I also had an opportunity of seeing the trays of their biscuits made on the premises and they also looked good. I definitely recommend this place to stop for breakfast or lunch. They have quality products, a warm and cozy ambiance, an excellent customer service.

Solid bagel sandwiches, but our 3 basic egg and cheeses were not worth a 30 minute wait.read more

A Hidden Gem in Lewisburg…read more Corn & Flower is the kind of place that makes you fall in love with breakfast all over again. I stopped in for a salt bagel with cream cheese, and it was nothing short of outstanding. The bagel was fresh, perfectly chewy with just the right touch of salt, and the cream cheese was smooth, flavorful, and generously provided. Simple, yes--but executed with care and quality that's hard to find. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, with a clear attention to detail in both the food and the space. You can tell the team here takes pride in what they do. Whether you're a local or just passing through, Corn & Flower is absolutely worth the stop. I'll be back to explore more of their menu soon! They were very nice and the food was excellent.

It was packed with fresh veggies and enough cream cheese for me to enjoy. The onions flavored the bagel so well that I had a burst of onions and vegetables for breakfast.

All in all though, it's a cute breakfast stop and I would absolutely come back again to try out more of their menu!

This was fine for my needs, and indeed I like places with a narrow focus, but it might come as a surprise to some. The space was minimal. I was a bit surprised to see bagels packed in threes; I was expecting to be able to pick them out by flavor one at a time. I was also a bit surprised that the cinnamon rolls their website promised didn't seem to be there, though a few other intriguing baked goods were on sale. Ultimately, I took some mouthwatering rosemary and sundried tomato bagels along with some plain ones for comparison, as well as a chocolate babka cake. The bagels had that bit of sourness that makes them worthwhile, and a nice bit of browning. The babka cake, which I worried would not have enough chocolate, delivered satisfaction on a per-bite basis. What I wanted out of my baked goods is pretty much what i got.

I was hungry and not in the mood to move my vehicle from the hotel parking lot as street parking in Lexington can be a challenge. I arrived at about 9AM and the only other customers were 2 college age girls who never exchanged a word with the other since they were on their phones. I ordered a Hillel and a large coffee. The only available creamer was pumpkin spice which I'd never had in my life. What is a Hillel you ask? It was salmon, caper, onion, and cream cheese in a bagel for about 10 bucks, however either it was tasty or I was starving and would have enjoyed a spam sandwich. The college aged staff were reasonably friendly, accommodating, and my order was ready in a jiffy. The cafe is located on the campus of Washington & Lee University whose current president has a left-leaning agenda for its students. Not a bad deal for a quick meal if you're hungry. The portions aren't huge, but probably more in line with quantities more conducive to health, and prices are somewhat high. PS I don't like pumpkin -spiced coffee

When I was a freshman at Virginia Tech I probably spent at least half my meal plan at Bruegger's just because I loved their bagel sandwiches. Bruegger's is probably one of my favorite places to go out of all the dinning halls at Virginia Tech, their service is insanely fast, and I just love seeing my bagel being made right in front of me. That way I can customize it as I go. Bruegger's also has a huge selection of different type of bagels! I generally always get nova lox (cream cheese, smoked salmon, capers, red onions and tomato) with a little bit of sriracha. The addition of sriracha gives the whole sandwich a nice level of heat, that helps balance out the richness from the cream cheese. I also normally ask for cream cheese on both sides, since I love cream cheese. I always switch up my bagel though because I'm always curious about what each bagel taste like. My top 3 favorite bagel at Bruegger's has to be the olive oil and rosemary bagel, the jalapeno cheddar bagel and then the classic everything bagel. Now to get the nova lox bagel or any customization bagel you have to wait in line. The only thing is out of all my years at Virginia Tech going to Bruegger's the line is almost always out the door if you go right after class in the morning. If you don't have time because of classes, Bruegger's has a grab and go! This grab and go is absolutely ingenious because I can enjoy a morning bagel with almost no wait time. The only thing is that Bruegger's to go line only has a limited selection of bagels Such as egg and cheese, bacon egg and cheese, sausage egg and cheese, western, and some other options. These bagels are also really good, but if you have the time I say wait in the line since a I believe freshly made bagel is always better. Overall, I love going to Bruegger's and I always try stop by if i have time between my classes. If you love bagels, I highly suggest you give them a try since their menu is very diverse their bagels are tasty and service is amazing.

I saw this restaurant was listed as having gluten free bagels when I checked out this website…read morerecommending restaurants with gluten free menus. I got excited for tbis bit of nostalgia, but havibg celiac disease often makes eating at many restaurants almost, if not totally imposdible. However, this website should not have listed Bruegger's Bagels as their wrbsite says they do not gave gluten free bagels or bread. My family loves this restaurant, but it is quite obvious whoever wrote this website recommendation had not done any research. Please take them off of your list of gluten free restaurants as they state they currently had nothing gluten free in terms of bread or bagels. Gluten exposure in people with celiac disease will make them seriously ill for weeks or months on end as their disfunctional immune system will badly damage tbeir digestive system. Celiac disease is an incurable genetic disease and is a lifelong problem.
