| - I'll be honest...I was looking for Einstein Brothers bagels, and didn't find them right away, so I decided to stop in here. It actually turned out to be a good decision!
There was one man working the joint. I went with an everything bagel with cream cheese, and a garlic bagel, plain. Total for both bagels was a little under $4.00. Not bad..not bad at all. Here is how they were..........
Everything bagel with cream cheese- First of all, this was a big ass bagel! When I unwrapped the white paper, I was impressed! This thing had a ton of cream cheese on it and was cut in half so that it gave you 4 quarter slices of bagel to enjoy. The everything bagel had the usual poppy seeds/garlic/salt etc on the outside and was incredibly tasty. The outside had a nice crunch to it and the inside was nice and chewy. I detected a hint of sourdough, too (might use a sourdough starter for their bread? Whatever it was, it was delicious!)! This was one mighty fine bagel. Probably the best bagel I have had in the Phoenix area since moving out here permanently.
Garlic bagel- Delicious! Lot's of garlic salt/pieces on it. Crunchy outside, chewy inside, just like the everything bagel.
Overall, I was happy I "got lost" and found this place. It is a bit hard to find (behind Bank of America, next to Starbucks on the corner of Bell & Grand), but it is worth the search to locate it. These bagels were really good, prices were fair, service was to the point and it's a locally run business. I'll be back soon enough!
