Morse Road just got a fresh-baked wake-up call. Einstein Bros. Bagels has opened a new bakery at 4776 Morse Road in Gahanna, debuting today and bringing the chain's bagels and morning-focused menu to a busy strip that already leans hard into breakfast. The 1,372-square-foot shop seats about a dozen guests inside, includes a designated mobile pickup area, and offers full catering service for meetings and gatherings. The location is set to serve customers seven days a week from 6 a.m. to 2 p.m.
New design hits Morse Road
As reported by WSYX, the Gahanna bakery features Einstein Bros.' "Elevate the Morning" store design, which puts the fresh-baked bagel case front and center and is meant to streamline both mobile pickup and in-store flow. Chief Operating Officer Adam Modzel told the station, "Gahanna deserves a go-to spot for breakfast and lunch, and we are proud to be that place." The outlet also notes that the store's size and interior layout are intended to create a more inviting, seamless experience for guests.
Bagel chain bets big on growth
The Gahanna opening is part of a broader rollout of the "Elevate the Morning" prototype as Einstein Bros. accelerates growth. The company recently announced plans to add hundreds of locations in the coming years. A company release via PR Newswire says the refreshed format is engineered to scale quickly while keeping the focus on fresh-baked bagels and faster pickup for on-the-go customers. Industry coverage has noted the new design appearing in multiple markets this year.
Columbus footprint keeps rising
Permits filed last year pointed to plans for the Morse Road location, and local reporting flagged this site as the fourth Einstein Bros. bakery serving the Columbus area. 614NOW reported that filings laid out the Morse Road build and that recent openings in Reynoldsburg and downtown Columbus had already expanded the brand's presence in central Ohio. For shoppers and commuters, the new store adds another quick breakfast and lunch option in a retail corridor packed with national morning-focused concepts.
Hours, online ordering and catering
Those looking to check the hours, browse the menu or place orders and catering requests can head to the bakery's official online listing. The Einstein Bros. Bagels page confirms daily hours of 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. and offers online ordering, rewards sign-up and catering options for groups of various sizes. The listing also includes a phone number for pickup coordination.
Hiring and neighborhood impact
The Gahanna shop is staffing up with team members and shift leaders as it ramps operations. A local posting on Indeed lists openings and pay ranges specific to the Morse Road location, although applicants are advised to confirm current details with the employer. For the neighborhood, the arrival brings another pickup-friendly breakfast option aimed at commuters and nearby workers who want their bagel fix without a long sit-down.
