Einstein Bros.® Bagels Hosts Blue Ash Grand Opening on November 22

First 50 Guests in Line Will Win Free ‘Shmear for a Year’

Denver, CO (November 17, 2025) — Calling all bagel lovers! Einstein Bros.® Bagels is officially opening its doors in Blue Ash, bringing its fresh-baked-all-day bagels, chef-inspired egg sandwiches, and innovative breakfast flavors to Northern Cincinnati. To celebrate the newest location at Blue Ash, 9590 Kenwood Rd Blue Ash, OH 45242, the brand is throwing a grand opening event on Saturday, November 22, featuring the new 'Elevate the Morning' store design with a brand-new giveaway, free swag, prizes, and discounts. 

To kick off the celebration, the first 50 guests in line at the Blue Ash grand opening event will win free ‘Shmear for a Year,’ that’s a free fresh-baked bagel topped with one of the brand’s signature cream cheese shmears, every week for a whole year. ‘Shmear for a Year’ winners will be able to choose any Bagel & Shmear combination across the brand’s classic, signature, and gourmet bagel lineup. With 22 bagel flavors and 7 shmear options, there’s over 140 possible combinations, so always something new to try.

In addition to the ‘Shmear for a Year’ giveaway, guests at the grand opening will also be able to spin a prize wheel with various offers and take advantage of free swag. Einstein Bros. will keep the celebration going for the next two weeks with a Free Egg Sandwich with purchase when guests order in bakery, online, or in the app with code GRANDSAND. 

"The Blue Ash opening marks another exciting step in our growth across the Cincinnati region,” said Adam Modzel, Chief Operations Officer at Einstein Bros. Bagels. “We’re proud to expand our presence here and share the comfort and connection that comes with a warm bagel and a friendly smile.”

From opening day and beyond, guests can expect bagels baked fresh every morning, and throughout the day, alongside an extensive lineup of double-whipped shmear flavors like Honey Almond, Onion & Chive and Jalapeño Salsa. Einstein Bros. also brings a variety of Signature Egg Sandwiches to the breakfast table, like the All-Nighter, Texas Brisket, and Maplehouse. For small gatherings, the brand offers convenient ‘Good for Groups’ options like the Brunch Box that serves eight people and the Baker’s Dozen Bagels Box filled with 13 bagels and complete with two tubs of shmear for easy assembly. For larger groups, the new Blue Ash location also offers catering services, making it easy to bring fresh-baked goodness to office meetings, events, and special occasions. ​ 

The new Blue Ash location features a warm and welcoming atmosphere that highlights the brand’s fresh-baked bagels and playful personality through their refreshed bakery design. This is the third of five new Einstein Bros. Bagels bakeries opening across the Cincinnati area this year, with additional openings coming soon in Columbia Square, and the Cincinnati Airport.
