Einstein Bros. Bagels is opening at Edgewood Plaza on South Florida Avenue
An Einstein Bros. Bagels is filling a restaurant space at Edgewood Plaza on South Florida Avenue in Lakeland.
A run of building permits at 2928 Florida Ave S shows Einstein Bros. Bagels moving into a space at Edgewood Plaza, the retail center that also includes a Sally Beauty. The main tenant build-out — listed as a $250,000 remodel/alteration — was finaled in late May 2026, and follow-up permits for a wall sign, a sound system and data drops for the new restaurant space have all been issued or finaled.
The work was done by Stansell Properties & Development as building contractor, with a full slate of electrical, mechanical, plumbing, gas and refrigeration subcontractors. The property is owned by Edgewood Plaza II Ltd. A separate permit at the plaza also covers a transit stop bench.
An opening date is not stated in the records, but with the build-out finaled and the sign and interior systems permits in place, the space appears to be nearly ready to open.
