Bodo's Bagels Reviews

New York has their bagels and Charlottesville has Bodos... so good. If you come visit Cville you have yo try the bagels!

What can I do to convince you to open a BODO'S over here in Fredericksburg!? We do love to visit C'ville though :)

Fast service and friendly staff..one of my favorite places to pop in to and grab a bite!

Best simple breakfast bagel sandwich ever. Eggs did not have that usual weird aftertaste like fast food places.

Always delicious. They stay busy for a reason. Best bagels in town.

Always a 5-star here. Options for everyone, veggie or non! One of my go-to-sandwiches is the BLT, no mayo, onion, on sesame bagel. Great for a breakfast or lunch spot. Use the queues!

Best bagels in town! They even have great vegan options.

Excellent bagels, wonderful range of cream cheese flavors. Very pleasant atmosphere

Truly the best place around to get a quick bite or take home some of the best bagels ever! My family and I will drive more than 30 min just to grab one of their amazing sandwiches. My husband loves the spritzers with real fruit juice! The only downside is the coffee is not the best you have had by far, everything else truly makes up for this one hitch!

Was pleasantly surprised, they truely taste like a NY bagel

I eat here A LOT and i love the food..... But was a little disappointed today when i got my bagle and was almost done with it when i bit down on what looked like the top of a squrit bottle that had ben cut off!!! It really hurt. I told the employees and they did refund me my meal! I will still continue to eat here as they do have the BEST bagels EVER!!!

Great bagels. Great sandwiches. Don t be deterred by the line out the door. Their service is quick and accurate.

Ok. Good sandwiches but highly overrated. Quality has dropped a little over the years. Just a little.

Lord have mercy. this place is everything. The service is fast. The food is top notch. They have vegan options. It is one of the best bagel places I ve ever been to.

Always busy for a reason. Fresh, tasty bagels! Mmmmm!!!

Great breakfast or lunch option. One of the few non-expensive but still fresh/good quality places in Charlottesville.

Was impressed during my first visit. Will definitely be back. Staple Charlottesville.

Bodos is the best value for your money restaurant I have ever been to. And it is my favorite bagel place I have been to in all of VA. Everything from the egg and cheese bagels to the bagel sandwiches to the salads are reasonably priced and delicious! If I could give this place 6 stars I would!

Charlottesville staple and having been here 10 years they ve definitely grown on me...decent texture when fresh, cream cheeses are good. Yet they re not the caliber of your Northeastern options, they refuse to toast (which if you re a purest you wouldn t want but slightly frustrating that they flat out won t), they turn stale oddly fast, and there s not much particularly exciting about any of the options to entice you.
Best tend to be breakfast options especially if you re OK with a folded not fried egg.
A 3 means: It s solid, I d eat here a few times a year but unlikely to become a true regular, and am likely on the hunt for a better version of whatever you do.

Great food, Fast, at Great Prices. A Cville institution.

These bagels were good. The eggs for the egg sandwiches were just ok.

Famous bagel spot in the Charlottesville area. It gets really busy on weekends morning times. They offer several different kinds and I also liked their coffee. Helpful employees. Seating can be limited but they do tend to become available pretty quickly. Will definitely visit again.

I know everyone in Charlottesville seems to love Bodo's. However, in my opinion, I'd take Panera or Einstein Bros any day. The location was dirty, the bagels were bland with no crispiness at all (even had mine toasted), very few flavor selections, and hardly any sandwich choices.

I had an everything bagel with bacon egg and cheese. Delicious!

Bodo's does a great job even during COVID but this last time when I ordered 12 everything and 12 plain the plain were not warm and by the next day were rock hard, while the everything bagels were warm and still fresh the next day.

Very good customer service; parking is not that good. If I lived nearby and walked than this would be great!

My favorite breakfast spot when visiting Charlottesville!

Good Salad but would you pay 35 cents for an extra thimble of dressing?

Ham, egg, cheddar cheese on a cinnamon raisin bagel...great way to start the day!

3 co workers and I travel to Cville every week, and bodos is always our lunch choice. Fast, cheap, and delicious. 5/5 Would reccomend. They have something for everyone!

All 3 locations are awesome...Great staff,Great food..If your from outta town should def try it!

I don know how people recommend it. Their coffee and bagels suck

Delicious bagels and bagel sandwiches. This is one of the best bagel bakeries anywhere

Worth the wait, in spite of the long line the service was quick and the bagels delish.

Best bagels outside of New York and maybe even there too

My favorite bagel place ever. They just need capers for the lox.

So many bagels and cream cheeses to try still. Love Bodo's

Good breakfast choice. Usually a line but it moves quickly.

Bodo's is a Charlottesville staple, and has amazing sandwiches! They have the freshest ingredients, and their bacon, egg, and cheese on an everything bagel is amazing! It doesn't matter if you go at the slowest time or the most busiest, they are very efficient at getting you served and getting you in and out in no time. It should be illegal to live in Charlottesville, and to never have tried Bodo's.

What can be said about Bodo's? It's a Cville institution. Preston street is the best if you ask me, but they all rule. So simple, but everything is done perfectly.

First of all, I'd have to agree with the person below on the flavor of the bagels, they are tasteless and working with bread I can tell you that they are very high in gluton, they possibly warm them in a microwave too, since they don't have a toaster. Second of all for the best service go Bodo's on Preston Ave, I've been to the Emmett Street store a few times and they seems to employ a combination the lowest and uncleanest of the low and board kids, who find a little pleasure in giving you the run around. I've encountered service with a sneer on a number of occasions, and I'm not going back.

Bagels are so yummy and love the homemade cream cheeses!

Their bagels were good, but it was there cream cheese spreads that were great.

Closest to NY water bagels your gonna fine in VA. Worth the trip to Charlottesville before wine or brew AA highway. Salads are pretty good too.

I love the bagel place, service is excellent. I like to try their different soups.

It's no wonder that Bodo's is a local favorite. Excellent food, and some of the best service anywhere. When I was a kid, I'd look forward to lunch at Bodo's with my folks. I still get excited about eating here. I've had some fabulous bagels in great places but these are still a favorite.

Bagels are surprisingly perfect despite how fast they are made!

The best lox and cream cheese bagel I ve ever had and I live in New York city! My order was prepared in a timely fashion, and the location is clean and sunny. The lines tend to get long (which is understandable, because the bagels are delicious), but it moves quickly.

Was almost hit twice and got lost finding the place but these bagels were worth it. The no bull Patty's..amazing..

Bodo's has the best bagles & tuna salad in Charlottesville VA!! I really wish they had a drive-thru window because the inside is always so very busy exspecially when the UVA Students come back. I would probably eat there more often if they did have a drive-thru window.

Drive in and a full menu, and staff working hard. Try to stop by.

Incredible bagels and sandwiches, and extremely reasonable prices. My favorite place in Charlottesville!

Fast, efficient service. Great prices. Amazing bagels! I suggest Bodos for cream cheese too - it is much better than grocery store offerings and is at competitive prices to whipped creme cheeses on the shelf.

Best bagel I've had in a long time. The BLT bagel was great but the cinnamon raisin bagel with honey pecan cream cheese was the real star.

Always good food, always faster than you think, always great value! Whole family loves this place.

Delicious New York style bagels with lots of different breakfast and lunch options

A classic water bagel with very good toppings. A true Charlottesville staple.

Locally owned Charlottesville institution. Great for quick inexpensive food. Yes, bagels but I really like their ceaser salad (add tofu) . Easy to eat vegetarian or Vegan.

First time bodos goer with high expectations and they delivered. Don't be intimidated by the line because it moves really fast. Everything bagel with cream cheese was great.

Great food and good service. Love the sausage and egg whole wheat bagel.

The bagels are fresh, but they can't toast the bagels.

Quick, affordable, and delicious. The lines can be long but they have a very efficient system down so you will receive your food quickly regardless of the line. Their egg sandwiches are on point, try the egg and ham with cheese or the deli-egg. Deservedly a Charlottesville staple.

the. best. bagels. bar none. yes, including new york. right price too. if there's a long line don't let that dissuade you. I've never seen anyplace consistently move lines along at swift rate. you'll never wait long.

Always great but lately I've noticed the place could use a good cleaning and sprucing up.

One of the few times I've waited in a line out the door and been happy to do it.
