About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, as customers were munching on their bagels, an announcement crackled over the store’s speakers: ‘Ladies and gentlemen, Einstein himself will be stopping by for breakfast today.’ Regulars looked at each other skeptically, but sure enough, soon after a tall gentleman with thick spectacles entered, ordered a plain bagel—and vanished into thin air when he finished eating. As it turned out, Einstein had simply misplaced his temporal coordinates while calculating the perfect bagel-to-brain ratio. A few minutes later, another customer noticed him frantically scribbling equations on a napkin outside in the alley—trying to recalibrate his chronotemporal displacement device. The next day, Einstein showed up again, sheepishly waved hello, then quickly scarfed down two dozen bagels before vanishing once more.
2. A regular was reading the newspaper while sipping his coffee, completely unaware that he’d just become the star of an urban legend. Every morning, without fail, Einstein Bros.’ doorbell would ring exactly when he reached page three.} One day, a delivery driver accidentally dropped off his lunch instead of bagels. When our regular looked up from his paper, he saw the sandwich and exclaimed, ‘Finally, someone brings me something edible!’ Ever since then, Einstein Bros. has been known as the place where even the delivery guy gets it wrong.’
3. At dawn, when Einstein Bros. Bagels was just opening its doors, a delivery driver arrived with a mysterious box marked ‘Top Secret’. Employees peered curiously but no one dared ask questions. Inside, the manager carefully unwrapped the box, revealing a giant bagel shaped like the Earth. Everyone burst out laughing—it turned out to be an April Fools’ prank from the supplier. From then on, Einstein Bros. became known for their occasional whimsical deliveries.
4. At midnight, when Einstein Bros. Bagels seemed empty and quiet, a delivery driver noticed something strange in the corner of his eye. Curious, he crept closer and saw an old man dozing off behind the counter, gently humming a tune while holding a bagel sandwich. The delivery driver smiled, realizing it was just another night in the life of Mr. Jenkins, a regular who liked to nap there after his evening strolls. With a wink, he left a fresh bagel for him and quietly closed the door.
