EINSTEIN BROS. BAGELS REVIEWS

I’ve enjoyed 3 different toasted breakfast sandwiches this week and each one was fresh, filling, and so full of flavor. The bagels are perfectly chewy, light, and add a burst of flavor. I had the All Nighter and added avocado - probably wouldn’t have liked it as much without it. My favorite was the seemingly basic Bacon Avocado tomato egg white sandwich. Every sandwich is perfectly paired with a flavorful sauce/smear and I loved the Santa Fe Egg White sandwich for that reason. My third trip there I ordered the Energy spritz drink which a monster energy drink blended with dragonfruit - I wish Monster sold this combination.

The bagels here are incredibly chewy and flavorful—some of the best I’ve had! I always cut them in half and toast them in the air fryer for about three minutes. The result is a perfect crispy outside with a soft, chewy inside. I usually spread cream cheese on top and enjoy it with a cup of coffee, which makes for a truly happy morning. On special days, I add smoked salmon and capers, and it honestly feels like a gourmet breakfast that rivals any restaurant. Highly recommended for anyone who loves a satisfying and cozy start to their day.

Best bagels in Pasadena!!! You will taste the difference from store bought or even Panera. They are fresh and light. This place makes a perfect Sunday morning of any day. Not close to where I live but is well worth the drive.

PANERA BREAD REVIEWS

I absolutely love coming to this Panera Bread. The staff is always welcoming and provides fast, efficient service. My go-to order is the Bacon Turkey Bravo, which is always delicious and satisfying. The atmosphere here is calm and inviting, with spacious seating and modern décor that makes it a perfect place to relax, work, or chat with friends. I always leave feeling refreshed and happy after a great meal in such a pleasant environment.

I like Panera Bread but this location was the best by far. I usually order the same thing at every store. So to see the difference in service and attention to your order being made is awesome. Most of the Panera Bread in L.A and surrounding area suck! Let’s not talk about Culver City our LAX location that just throws your food together (Terrible). I’m just glad that the team at this location cares. Thanks guys.

I enjoyed it quite nicely. The food was prepared and was delivered to my table in quick time. I had no troubles when it came to the services, infact they didn't mind assisting me. Great place, would go to again.

STARBUCKS REVIEWS

Great service at this location. It gets pretty busy here, yet they seem to take care of everyone fairly quickly. I like it. Update- have visited this location many times since my last quick review. Still rockin the great Customer Service here. Today I was helped by Pascal (he was new there) he did great. Pascal was timely, courteous and really had a helpful demeanor about him. I was in and out as usual. Thanks guys. I know it takes a team to do this coffee thing. Keep up the good work.

We love this place. We only go here to get our coffees because of the staff. In particular, Leopoldo is maybe the nicest human we've met. He remembers our names, asks about things we've chatted about - all while working his butt off. The staff is wonderful, they are all kind!! Can't say enough about how great this place is.

WOW completely remodelarte extremely clean and tidy, it been a pleasure to see this Starbucks, how they care for provide a clean environment. Thank you to all the staff for the effort.
