Restaurant Name: Einstein Bros. Bagels
If one is in a hurry, fast food restaurants are great and the food is not always bad or mediocre. Often it is pretty good food (sometimes, it can be perfect for the immediate concern) and when you travel, you often find situations when a quick bite is needed. That is where the predictability of chains becomes a safe bet.
I'd catalogue Einstein more as an eatery anyways
The average Einstein's has a homey decor with aforementioned nice lighting. You move through a line to place your order and pay at a register at the end of the counter. The staff is usually very quick in executing your order. There are simply tables with metal chairs. Nothing fancy here. It’s just a bagel and a cup of coffee not a gourmet meal. They do have a number of newspapers out for those inclined to catch up on the news.
This is more beneficial in the branches you might visit when traveling out of state and you can catch up on all the sports scores :o)
This is like the Starbucks of Chewy Mounds of Dough!
It’s a relaxed atmosphere when it’s not overly crowded. There are times when a table is simply not to be found (around lunch time = but does that surprise anybody!?)
While I have the admitted preference for unique shops, it is good to see an Einstein Brothers. I have eaten quick breakfasts and lunches in these places in a number of different cities, they provide a nice change of pace. These bagel shops offer a tasty and reasonable meal. This would be woefully inadequate for a dinner but Einstein Brothers is perfect for a quick bite. You can consult their website to see if there's a branch nearby.
Favorite Dish: I have developed a fondness for bagels over the years. A good bagel shop can provide adequate sustenance at a reasonable price. It is also healthier than filling up on fast food burgers.
They usually have a wide range of bagels and “schmears”. You can also get a variety of sandwiches made. They even have specialty bagels that are trotted out from time to time. These top shelf bagels include a Spinach Florentine and a Spicy Nacho bagel. They can be had for a mere 99 cents. The regular bagels are sold for a mere 69 cents. This is cheap and it’s healthier than chomping down a dried out burger with processed cheese.
Of course, they also make sandwiches. You will have a choice of panini sandwiches, challah rolls or bagels. I often get a turkey pastrami sandwich on a poppy seed bagel.
Hummus & Feta is delicious! They also have a variety of schmears. This would be the way to go if you want to save money. You can get a bagel with jalapeno spread and a cup of coffee for under 5 bucks. There are free refills for coffee if you eat there. They usually offer a few specialty coffees like French Vanilla, hazelnut or Antigua Guatemala.
They have soups and salads and pastries as well. Their cookies are like homemade!!! and their coffee is very good! (especially their Cafe Mocha)
They sell bagels by the baker’s dozen and offer tubs of their variety of schmears.
