Einstein's Bros Bagels

Hidden gem in the GRS building. Back in Spring 2020 (before covid lockdown) I was teaching in basement of GRA building and discovered this hidden gem right inside the university. I love their bagels and cream cheeses and the vibe there. Recently, they are also using a very seamless system for ordering through your credit card or BU ID that connects to grubhub. Orders are fast. Staff are very helpful. Great vibe for studying. Doesn’t feel like a basement. Highly suggest all BU students to try it. I ordered lox bagel and it was very delicious. The ordering menu allows you to customize the ingredients. Update: sadly, this place is closed during Summer 2022 semester.

Amazing bagels and fast service. If you can't settle for the bagels at fast paced, commercial coffee shops, this will definitely hit the spot. The texture and flavor is perfect and they have some classic but also unique choices of cream cheese. Personally, I have not tried any of their sandwiches, but I've only heard good things.

I've only ever had coffee at Einstein Bros. Bagels. I normally go there during work. While the coffee is decent, the general atmosphere set by the people working there is cheerful, and at the same time, relaxing. Combine those two together and I'm fully charged and ready to go back to work and be productive again.
