Bagel runs are about to get a lot easier at the Highway 288 and Highway 6 crossroads. Einstein Bros. Bagels is headed to Manvel Town Center, bringing another quick-service breakfast option to the busy retail hub. The chain has listed a Manvel location on its website, and local building filings indicate interior work is slated to begin this summer, although the company has not yet announced an official grand opening date.
As reported by Community Impact, the bakery is planned for 17307 Highway 6, Suite 107 in Manvel Town Center and will serve bagels, cream-cheese spreads, breakfast sandwiches and coffee. Community Impact noted in its June 30, 2026 story that the company has not yet shared an exact opening date.
Construction timeline and permit details
According to a Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation project filing, a Feb. 26 submission for "Einstein Bros Bagels" at 17307 Highway 6 lists a construction start date of next Friday, July 3, and a projected completion date of July 2, 2027, for a roughly 2,349-square-foot tenant finish-out. The filing pegs the estimated cost at about $450,000 and describes the work as a non-structural restaurant build-out that includes electrical, plumbing and mechanical systems.
What the brand's listing shows
On the brand's locations page, Einstein Bros. Bagels lists a Manvel bakery at the same address and highlights its menu and catering options. The listing is tagged "opening soon" and shows a "Reopen Date" of Aug. 12, 2026, although the company has not issued a formal opening announcement to confirm those dates.
Where this fits in Manvel's growth
Local development reporting notes Manvel Town Center, located at the Hwy. 288/Hwy. 6 interchange, is a major retail hub anchored by H-E-B and slated to include dozens of national tenants, according to Creekhaven. Regional coverage of a bagel breakthrough in Cypress shows Einstein Bros. has been opening multiple Houston-area bakeries this year as part of a broader expansion.
For now, Manvel residents can keep an eye on the TDLR project record and the chain's locations page for updates on timing and hours. We will update this story when Einstein Bros. confirms an official opening date and public hours.
