Einstein Bros Bagels

Airport food? I guess this has to have lower standards for being in an airport, but it’s still lame.
Came here for breakfast, had the sausage egg and cheese bagel. It was pretty underwhelming. Filled the stomach, that’s it.
I’m going to Micky D’s next time and getting some hot cakes — much better choice in my opinion.

We can start with the good. The menu is your typical Einstein menu and has some variety. The food tasted fresh. And although the line was very long, it was still moving very quickly and efficiently.
However all the good in the world can’t make up for a screwed up bagel. I grabbed a bagel and cream cheese and hopped on my flight. When I opened the bag, I discovered there was the smallest amount of cream cheese I’ve ever seen to be on my bagel. It was probably around less than 1 teaspoon and didn’t even have enough to cover half the bagel, scraping it as thin as possible.
The real reason for this review is this isn’t the first time. The exact same thing happened about a month ago as well. One time… Okay maybe there was a simple mistake. Twice? Needs attention.

Disgusting there are flies all over the bagels and when i told the employee he just looked at me like I am an idiot and would not acknowledge it. He continued to take orders. Gross

Quick service and same menu items you would expect outside the airport. More expensive, but we are at the airport.

I asked if the Italian chicken panini had marinara sauce or if it didn’t to request to add some. I received a blank stare in return and «Panini is premade and put in the oven.» I don’t know how many times the same sentence was repeated to me. I gave up and ordered it anyway. Chances of me coming back are next to never. I would even eat McDonald’s food before coming back to this one. So much for a healthy alternative when service is down the drain. I saw plenty of people frustrated in line. Please retrain your staff.

Not sure when they switched to concentrated orange juice — blech. Had to blend 3 different coffees to get a full cup as the cisterns were pretty much empty. The lox and bagel was fine but the experience was bad.

Usually pretty good, however, this morning as I opened my bagel on the airplane I was surprised by a spicy jalapeño spread and not the smoked salmon spread I ordered.

Staffers very friendly, food was great, line was extremely long. If you’re looking to eat healthy — they the thintastic bagel sandwich — it’s got turkey sausage, egg whites, asparagus, mushrooms and Swiss cheese. It’s very yummy!

Very fast service, good bagels and fresh breakfast sandwiches. However, their regular and bold coffee taste like hazelnut. Happens every time I get coffee here. Clearly they don’t do a good job cleaning their equipment, which is a shame because I hate hazelnut.

Concourse C has several options for food, but when I’m looking for a fast breakfast, Einstein’s is a solid choice that will fill my belly and make me feel just a little bit better about myself for deciding on something other than MCD’s.
The breakfast bagel sandwich is the way to go. A little egg, meat, cheese and some added cream cheese (you have to ask) is always a winner. I’m never disappointed when I order a breakfast sandwich, it hits the spot 99% of the time.
Service here is efficient with someone taking your order in line and then by the time you get up the register to pay your food is ready. Color me impressed.
When looking for a satisfying quick meal in Concourse C, Einstein’s is a good choice.

This place is my go-​to, quick and simple breakfast meal. A bagel with shmear sets me back about four bucks. It beats ingesting imitation eggs on a biscuit or English muffin. What’s more, it helps me with the possibility from risking my time in finding a restroom from the irritation of a McDonald’s sandwich. The staff here is friendly and it makes one feel like their visiting a friendly Starbucks. They take your order, ask for your name, you walk up to pay for it, and then they’ll yell out the name when it’s ready.
The only gripe I do have about this place is the over abundance of shmear they put on the bagel for you. I have resorted to requesting for it to be placed off the side, which they provide with a cup full. Just a heads up, make sure you have a sufficient amount of tine prior to boarding, the lines can be longer than desired. So don’t miss your flight! Also, you can get a combo soup and bagel for $ 5! That’s my poor-​day meal!

I would have to be pissed to write a negative review for an airport restaurant (as I expect a certain level of let-​down and chaos). This, however, was bad enough to make me want to write a review. I had some extra time and wouldn’t get a chance to eat for a few hours so figured I’d stop fully expecting a long wait, that was not the issue. I also expect a certain level of disorganization as the location is so crowded. Totally cool with that, even though it was a bit frustrating to see people who were behind me be served first when I just ordered a bagel and cream cheese. Whatever, though– there is a lot of people and the slips are probably really hard to keep organized. What I am mad about it that once I’ve got the bagel, I get to the terminal, I am actually pretty excited to eat it, and I open it to see barely any cream cheese on there. And the little actually present was in the hole. So, okay, I’ll spread it out with my finger. THERE WASN’T EVEN ENOUGH TO COVER THE WHOLE BAGEL. So I waited twenty minutes for a dry piece of bread. Never again, I would rather eat ANYTHING in the airport than that. Ruined the morning.

Stopped into this airport location between flights, as they were the only restaurant still serving anything related to breakfast. It was probably about eleven in the morning, I’d had an early flight with no chance to grab anything, and wanted to start off my day with breakfast food instead of a burger, a burrito, or Chinese food.
The staff was friendly and efficient, and I was impressed with how quickly my custom order arrived. I got some manner of Southwestern egg white bagel, though I ordered it on an asiago bagel instead of the thing bagel. I realize that including the lower-​calorie/​carb/​substance bagel is part of the selling point of their «healthier» sandwich, but I wanted more substance in my sustenance.
I grabbed a cup of water from the water fountain and sat down next to my gate, only to find that they’d indeed buggered up the order insofar as they’d made it the default way, with the thin bagel instead of what I’d actually ordered. Unplugging my phone from where it was happily charging up for my next flight, I headed back across the concourse to let them know.
I had to wait in line once again to get up to the counter, where the attendant remembered me and asked if there was a problem. I told her of the issue, and she got a manager to send word down the line for them to make it right. Another rapid wait later, I had the correct item and was on my way back to see if my spot next to the charge station had been appropriated by another traveler.
Overall, the bagel sandwich was good and filling, and (eventually) made correctly with only a moderate amount of fuss. It was more expensive than an average bagel sandwich at an average Einstein Bros., but of course, this one’s in an airport and a hike in price comes with the territory so that’s not factored into my overall review (but it’s noted). I’ll probably be back if I want a late breakfast, but I’ll make sure to open the wrapper and check to see if they got my order right next time.

came here for a quick snack before boarding my flight. the line actually moved really slow, but the staff was really friendly. i love their yogurt parfait, fruit cups, and raspberry or strawberry lemonade.

I live in airports and have never seen lines longer than the ones that form at this bagel shop. I’ve seen huge lines at Starbucks at many airports, but none match the 50 plus people that are fairly common at this location. Meanwhile, management is prepared. And, as long as that line is, it moves fast. It took us fewer than 10 minutes to have our bagel, tea, coffee, etc, in hand.
Anybody who’s been to Denver Airport knows Einstein is a chain. Fortunately, this airport location serves a full menu of an large assortment of bagels, bagel sandwiches, coffee and teas, etc. And, everything tastes fresh. You aren’t eating day/​week old bagels like you would at many other airport locations.

Food selection wasn’t the best; bagels, deli sandwiches, some pastries, salads, and some breakfast items.
This place is way too pricey, but then I guess that’s what happens when you buy food at the airport.
I had the southwest turkey, sausage that’s on the healthy menu. It wasn’t bad, especially since I was starving. But usually when you’re hangry (hungry/​angry), food tends to taste 10x better (at least for me). But sadly it was.ehhh.
I order a hot chocolate to go with it and it wasn’t bad. I’m pretty picky about my hot chocolates but this one wasn’t bad at all. Not overly sweet, actually, may not be sweet enough but not a big deal. It’s light and a bit creamy.
Overall, this place is ehhh. unless you really want to eat healthy, go elsewhere. Their bagel selection is pretty big tho so if you like bagels, give this place a try!

Overpriced bagel sandwiches in the airport? You bet. However, the people working here were friendly and the plain bagel with schmear was still a deal.
Mmm… Everything bagel…

My boyfriend used to work at an Einstein Bagel back in the day and I was wanting to try it out.
Got an egg white breakfast bagel sandwich with cheese, mushrooms, and asparagus — Yums!!!
Service was slow. but there was a guy with a clipboard that asked folks for their order to speed things up.
Coffee was solid as well.

Grabbed some grub for my flight back to the Lou. Service wasn’t too bad. Took me forever to figure out what I wanted. They have ‘fresh’ options, meaning they can whip you up something, and also ‘packaged’ options, meaning that if you are in a rush, you can grab and go.
If you need to grab a quick snack and are in the terminal, check them out.

I really don’t know why I always consider this Einsteins whey I’m hungry at DIA. I normally love Einsteins, but this location tends to drive me nuts.
First, it’s hard to see the menu and pricing until you’re right at the ordering point and there’s a long line of hungry and grumpy folks behind you. You give your order to a guy who writes it on a sheet of paper. Want a juice? Well you should have nabbed that from the cooler that’s off to the side first.
Second, this area is cramped. You’ll feel like you’re doing the waltz when waiting for your food, as everyone has to dodge each other in the small space they provide.
Lastly, although their food has been on par with normal Einsteins for the most part, it’s way too overpriced for what you’re getting, regardless of it being an airport location. The last time I visited I ordered an iced coffee that was not on par — room temp with no more than a half-​dozen ice cubes. I had to drink some and then ask for more ice.
If nothing else reasonable is open, this is possibly a viable solution. But unless I’m so hungry or thirsty that I might eat the in-​flight magazine, I won’t consider this Einsteins any longer.
