Bodo's Bagels (Preston)
Bodo's Bagels
Local bagel shop founded in 1988, serving thousands of customers a day. Quick and affordable, it's considered a Charlottesville icon.
Bodo's is a local Charlottesville bagel brand founded in 1988. The city has three locations; the Preston store is north of downtown and has its own parking lot. Bagels are always served warm, so there is no need to ask for them toasted. The signature is the Deli-Egg: deli meat, cheese, and egg cooked into a sandwich-sized omelet and tucked into a bagel. Locals recommend it on an everything bagel, and egg sandwiches are served all day. Expect to spend less than US$10 per person. Lines are long at peak times, but orders move quickly.
