Been to many cafes in the area, love this the most .
Warm hospitality, good food, & reasonable prices. $6 for the #1 breakfast special & $2.50 for a 26 oz bottled water.
Nicely air conditioned and clean bathroom facilities. Outdoor seating is optional. Service is prompt & friendly
Did not notice a bike rack. Highly recommended for cyclists passing through…

I asked Sea Cliff Bagel Cafe to cater a lunch for 50 people. It was wonderful: delicious, inventive, lovely to look at. Everything was excellent, but I was most impressed by the chef’s imagination: he put cranberry purée on the turkey sandwiches and a perfect vinaigrette on the grilled vegetable sandwiches. And those cookies were amazing! I certainly recommend this place for any catered meal.

Awesome spot for morning breakfast. The eggs were cooked perfectly just like another reviewer said. People are super friendly here and we chat up a storm with Vinny. Cool people cooking good food. Definitely will be back when I’m in the area.

Quality control is a constant issue. I took a break from ordering because my orders were often incorrect, even simple ones with only a few ingredients. I recently tried again through Uber Eats and the order was wrong again. I drove there to have it corrected, but even after showing the incorrect order in person it came back wrong again. I originally went in for the wrong cheese and ended up with a completely different bagel. Stinks.

It is a Gem and no diamond in the rough but more of a shiny box of all the precious gems. What a treat! Super friendly staff and wonderfully clean and also fast service. If you find yourself on School Rd in Glen Cove stop in and see and smell all the baked goods as well as the delicious Bagels. Made fresh.In and out service with good food,old concept and still works for Sea Cliff Bagel Cafe.

This overpriced bagel shop is average in the extreme. Sadly, it’s a far cry from the excellent product I’ve grown to expect in Long Island, the bagel capital of the world. The only reason that this place hasn’t been laughed out of town is because it’s across the street from a school where kids indiscriminately spend their parents’ disposable income. Look elsewhere. Whitefish spread is tasty.

Stopped by when out of town on a recommendation from a local family member. Great service, very kind and helpful! Tasty egg and cheese! We got a dozen bagels; very tasty & signature Long Island taste. We did think it a bit odd that there were raisins in most of them (including wheat and pumpernickel), but didn’t detract from the flavor. Maybe the raisins are a long island special? Would gladly visit again!

Right out of the oven, thus is how fresh their bagels are. They are making them in the shop.

I revisited Sea Cliff bagel Cafe. The bagel was fresher and the cream cheese proportion was much better. I will say that although fresh, the bagel is dense and harder to chew. Just not for me. The people that work the counter are always very friendly, A+ service.

I used to frequent this location a few years ago. Came back today for the first time in 2-3 years and was very disappointed. The bagel was hard, physically hurt to chew. To top it off, minimal cream cheese on the bagel. Incredibly disappointing, worst bagel I’ve had in a long time.
