Bruegger's Bagels

I go to the Bruegger’s Bagels on Brewerton Road in North Syracuse/Syracuse every Sunday or almost every Sunday and without fail the line is out the door. They are understaffed and working just as hard as they can to get our orders out and yet they do it with a smile on their face and always work as fast as they can although the process is incredibly slow. I would not normally wait for 20 minutes to get a bagel but I know how hard these folks work and what they have to deal with being short staffed with long lines each and every day. So thank you for all of your hard work and making my Sundays which are my only day off which is my only day off the best that I can be.

I’ve been going to Brueggers at various locations for several decades, and I’ve always preferred Brueggers to anyplace else. Brueggers consistently makes delicious bagels. There have been at least three Brueggers locations that have closed over the years and I always drive by them and remember enjoying bagels at each of them. I also frequently bought make your own salads, which has a variety of delicious ingredients. Several times I suggested they add black beans as an option for the salads. I also consider myself instrumental in encouraging Brueggers to let your staff collect tips I saw their staff work hour after hour, always having time to smile to the customers Last, several years, I purchased the option for unlimited coffee from Brueggers. I first started getting the mugs, and then I got the cards. I would sometimes stop several times a day getting coffee. I would bring my friends to Bruegger’s to have lunch or dinner, or breakfast. Brewers became my favorite choice as a go to for my meals the loss of the card was painful Last, I would always go to Brueggers, because I had coconut iced coffee. And I loved that iced coffee. I would go out of my way to go to Brueggers to get my coffee just for that flavor. Again, a big loss. I’d like to see Brueggers expand to many different locations and return to some of the wonderful options they used to have. I also hope that they can start paying more to their staff to encourage longevity.

I’m so grateful for the Brattleboro store ! Great staff there. I love to start my day with an herby Turkey on a fresh lightly toasted garlic bagel to get the protein & veg servings going. That sandwich & a dark roast coffee are a great start to my day. No drive through but it’s really worth it to get up 10 minutes earlier & just get out of the car & go in for that quality & freshness as compared to the fast food drive through offerings. The staff are consistently polite, knowledgeable & friendly ! They cheer the day shift on & treat us right. I’m an RN in an acute hospital & love to treat my colleagues with a bakers dozen of Bruegger’s fresh made bagels & 2 cream cheese offerings, maybe some smoked salmon. We can’t bring in food to share for awhile until we beat down Covid & have to eat breakfast separately, 6 ft away, no more than two @ a time in our breakroom 😢. Once it’s safe to do so & that rule is lifted, my whole team is getting Bruegger's again on our weekend to work & just get out there & serve our community proudly & with respect & gratitude for still being alive & having jobs. God bless the mental health counselors & the Certified Nurses Aides. Brattleboro VT Bruegger’s Bagels store is thankfully in my neighborhood & but just thanks for that ! That crew right there are real quality. A good breakfast really helps us just rock on VT strong & proud. Thank you, Dan Seward R.N. Brattleboro VT
