After seeing the response from the owner, inviting me to update my review (glad someone is responding to messages, at least): The way to resolve the issue really has nothing to do with me, personally, but the state of the shop itself. I will add photos. Check them out and ask if this is a place you would want to eat. And compare these photos with the beautiful one you have up from years ago, with the black wall and tables in the same spot I photographed. The whole place needs to be deep cleaned, restored, and maintained. Have a designer come in or just look at your own old photos for guidance and put tables and chairs back, make it a place people want to be again.
When I was there I asked the employees what had happened and they said the tables came out during Covid and were never brought back and the manager quit recently and they haven’t been able to retain staff. So leadership is clearly needed or this place will close, which would be a loss to the neighborhood. It was a great place and can be again.
This is not the same Bruegger’s that I knew and loved years ago. There food may still be great, but their days and hours of operation seem to change by the moment, which means I can’t plan ahead.
TLDR. Great great bagel sandwiches
It is Sunday 10 am on March 17th.
Our first time at this famous chain and as we entered the shop, we right away approached the cashier to place our order. The cashier that had a tag of “shift supervisor” acknowledged us, waited for us to start ordering and after I had already said Hi, asked him about his day and then said my order outloud , he (with a smirk on his face) pointed in the direction of the kitchen staff and said “yeah, you’ll need to order it there first!” (I think he was getting off on the fact that we were bran new customers and didnt know “their system”)
Fine, he is basking in his “bagel supervising” role , didnt even let that bother us, went to see young/ very friendly kitchen staff to place our order.
We ordered 3 different bagels, asked for all toasted w/ plain cream cheese. Now, when you have a bad experience from just walking through the door of the shop you’ve never been to before, you seem to just not even care about what happens next, you want to pay for food or services and just leave to never return. So we simply discussed our plans for that morning while waiting on the bagels. Order was completed, grabbed it, paid for it with desire to never come here again.
Now, who eats bagels without TOASTING them? If you do, you’re an animal! We specifically asked for TOASTED, and apparantly , warming the exterior part of the bagel equals to toasting them. Sad !
One and only good thing about this place, they didn’t skimp on cream cheese, but when you have a soft bagel it really doesnt matter how much cream cheese you might schmear on that! Really, it doesnt!
Lesson learned- if you get “great” customer service from the “shift supervisor” the moment you walk in- you should turn around and leave!
Additionally, the kitchen staff complained the entire time about the big order they had just received for 38 bagels and how “tiring and “great”” it was.
Amherst is a college town, i dont see why this bagel shop shouldn’t go to college to better their customer service skills. Bruegger’s Bagels, please start with your “shift supervisor”.
