Einstein Bagels is probably the most vegan-friendly chain bagel shop out there. They not only sell plenty of vegan bagels, but also spreads and other vegan snacks.
Some locations may even have vegan cream cheese, however not all of them will carry it as it’s not mandated by the company yet, but instead they only tested sales of it for a few months. Even if they don’t have the Vegan (Daiya) cream cheese they’ll have many other spreads, like peanut butter, fruit jams and jellies, and Hummus.
