Hey guys! I wanted to share another coffee shop review. As someone who enjoys working from various locations, I recently visited Einstein's Bagels, located at the northeast corner of Thunderbird Ave & 59th Avenue (the same parking lot as EOS Fitness). This place has been around for as long as I can remember. Interestingly, it shares a building with Starbucks, connected by a hallway.

Atmosphere and Seating

Einstein's Bagels and Starbucks are both quite busy, often with many tables occupied and people waiting for their drinks. Despite this, tables are usually available if you wait. The noise level can be high due to the chatter, which might be distracting. However, I find the activity around me inspiring. Using AirPods helps me focus amidst the noise.

Service

The service at Einstein's is consistently great. I've seen the same friendly faces for years, and while we're not best friends, it's nice to be recognized. Ordering can be anxiety-inducing for me, but the baristas are always helpful. On my first visit, I asked for a recommendation and ended up with a delicious blended mocha cappuccino. It's been my go-to there ever since.

Menu

Einstein's has an extensive menu, comparable to a full café like Panera. They offer a variety of coffees, soft drinks, teas, bagels, breakfast sandwiches, wraps, salads, and more. There's something for everyone here.

Pricing

Prices can add up, especially if you order a specialty coffee and a full breakfast meal, potentially reaching around $20. While this might be steep for someone just starting their business, the quality of food and work environment makes it worthwhile.

Work Environment

Connecting to Wi-Fi at Einstein's is incredibly easy, which is crucial for my work. The shared hallway with Starbucks also provides convenient access to restrooms without needing a key or code, avoiding any inconvenience.
