Chesapeake Bagel Bakery

Excellent bagel sandwich at home and on the go.

Very delicious bagels in Virginia, good to have at any time

After taking a recent trip to Virginia, I was recommended to stop here for breakfast as it was right by where I was staying. I stopped inside for some of the specialty bagels. Loved the 4 cheese and bacon bagel. Stopped in the next day as my weekend trip came to a close and Danny the manager and his staff were so welcoming again to me. I took some bagels back to Pennsylvania and shared with my family and they also enjoyed them. Very impressed going to come back soon!

Great bagels, bad service. We placed an order and waited over 25 minutes for a bagel sandwich. I wish I was exaggerating. If you have this much time to wait for bagels, I recommend it 😊

30 minites for a drink only. Got my number skipped quite a bit. Food's usually great though.

Place great, food is good, their process is absolutely broken. They run 3 high heat microwaves for cooking the bagels, which is fine for during the week - but when one breaks it’s a total mess on the weekends. How there isn’t a handful of backups or more than the 3 is odd. The workers are working hard and always polite but it’s clear how inefficient the entire set up is. 40+ minute wait for a bagel sandwich. Insane! Can’t say I’ll be coming back here anytime soon until there are changes.

My husband and I have been eating breakfast here for years, but we just can’t take it anymore. We’ve overlooked the disgustingly grimy floors and walls because the bagels are so good, but the sheer inefficiency of the service is mind-boggling. The young staff are polite and clearly working hard, but there’s some sort of overly complicated, manual system of actually producing the food for the customer that requires printing multiple receipts, matching them up, waiting until a bunch of receipts are printed, stapling together, then hanging them up for other staff to see and prepare. I literally waited today for 40 minutes after ordering an untasted bagel with cream cheese. Whoever owns this place has no pride in cleaning and repairing equipment, much less modernizing systems.

Recently the bagels are not as food as they used to be. The outside is hard and they are misshapen. They need to go back to the old recipe!

I’ll go out of my way to stop at a Chesapeake Bagel shop for a bagel knot, but sadly this was the worst, stale-tasting bagel I’ve ever had.

I found hair in my food and the workers were checking each others hair to see who’s it was and then my other bagel got messed up and when I let the staff know they remade and messed it up again.

Slow service waiting over 20 minutes for a couple of bagels. Bagels were ordered to be untoasted with cream cheese. When I checked my order, all bagels were toasted, and when I brought to the managers attention, he shrugged his shoulders and said "well the bagels are just hot." The cream cheese was literally melting off the bagel. Also saw them using the microwave for eggs on breakfast sandwiches. Will not be back.

Their frosted blueberry bagel knots are unmatched (definitely a treat). Their bagels have a good chew and soft interior. We get the sausage egg and cheese bagel egg sandwich often. They have pink heart bagels for valentines day and we take the kids here every year for them.

Normally a great place to get bagels, visited on 2 Feb 25, hardly any bagels, cappuccino machine broken, cooler broken, and tea dispenser broken. Staff couldn’t say when bagels would be ready.

They have a great chocolate chip bagel and people behind the counter are nice.

Easily the best bagels in Northern Virginia. I love how you can usually get warm, fresh-out-of-the-oven bagels. I have been going here for over 20 years and the food and service has consistently been excellent. They have a great variety of flavors for both bagels and cream cheese. I highly recommend it!
