Sausage eggs on a everything bagel
Joan G.

I would not go here until December or January (sorry Yankees). The place was packed and there is no parking. NOTHING FOR HANDICAP PEOPLE. We found a spot when someone was pulling out. You have to walk in the street or a gravel lot. We went inside to order. Talk about a line. He finally got up to order and we also wanted a milk and orange juice. We found a place to sit inside. When our order came, he told her we also ordered a milk and orange juice. We were told they would bring it out when it was ready. After he finished his bagel, he looked over and saw a cooler. With orange juice and milk in it. He went over and got our drinks. Would I come back here? No, there are many places around to get breakfast. Dead Dog even has a salmon bagel. If you see me there, ask what I'm doing here!!!

Fresh bread.

Benjamin's is now my favorite breakfast spot in Surfside. We got there mid morning on a Saturday and the place was packed. The line to order was wrapped around the dining room but it moved quickly. While in line you can check out the walls lined with baked goods that they make in house. After we placed our orders, they gave us a number to set on a table outside and they brought it to the table. I had the Lotsa Lox bagel which came with cream cheese, capers, and of course lox. It was a delicious bagel. My wife loved her BEC bagel. I definitely recommend sitting outside if you come here as it's way too busy inside. Highly recommend Benjamin's.

Paczki
Jacqueline T.

We stopped at Benjamin's Bakery on our way back from Myrtle Beach and were thoroughly impressed. We ordered the egg and cheese sandwiches on New York-style Asiago cheese bagels, and they were exceptional. The bagels had a shiny crust with just the right amount of hardness and a beautiful glaze, while the eggs were cooked to perfection. We couldn't resist grabbing a paczki (a Polish donut), which is a rare find in South Carolina. We chose the Bavarian Cream, and it didn't disappoint--it was giant, fresh, moist, and surprisingly not overly sweet. I'd definitely return to try the Raspberry paczki next time. With great prices, a fantastic food selection, friendly staff and top-notch quality, Benjamin's is an easy 5-star experience.

Breakfast bagel sandwich.

Quaint little sandwich and bakery shop. Excellent breakfast bagel and traditional sandwiches. Indoor and outside seating. Delicious coffees as well. Even when the line is long, the service is qu Highly recommend if you're in the area.

Cute little bakery serving up delicious bagels, pastries, sandwiches, coffees, etc. service has always been impeccable...they go above and beyond. It does get very crowded inside so be prepared to wait a bit and be cramped, but it's worth it. Basic food, done well. What more can you ask for?

On a recommendation from my brother and sister in law, we tried Benjamin's one morning for breakfast while on family vacation. All I can say is wow. Not only is every menu item beautiful, they are also equally delicious. The bread on the sandwiches was extra soft which I loved and the combos of sandwiches and toppings were elite. Their pastries were also super yummy. I love coffee cake and this one was moist with a thick layer of crumble on top. The real show stopper was the apple fritter. Rich, buttery, and scrumptious is how I would describe this little gem of a treat. They have an efficient way of ordering at the counter and they call your name when your order is ready. Indoor seating is limited. This will definitely be a regular breakfast spot for our family in the years to come!

Menu board plenty of selections

Very small place, not enough tables, especially during tourist season. The seating area could be way more efficient. The Bagels and bakery items are fresh and delicious. The staff runs around shouting names, when they should buy an inexpensive PA system. We love going here for breakfast but stay away on weekends! They should find a larger place or blow out the wall next door for more room.

Austin's Choice - Egg, Roasted Red Pepper, Provolone, Sausage with Jalapeno Roasted Red Pepper Mayo on a toasted Everything Bage
Holly W.

The staff at Benjamin's are so sweet and helpful. I had the Austin's choice breakfast sandwich. Egg, Roasted Red Pepper, Provolone, Sausage with Jalapeno Roasted Red Pepper Mayo on a toasted Everything Bage It was sooo good. The roasted red pepper along with the mayo was the perfect amount to enhance the sausage. The bagel was phenomenal. Perfectly toasted with great chew.

I love be Benjamins everything is good from their bagel sandwiches to their pastries. Everything is fresh and there's always a line even in the offseason. The food came out quick and it is worth taking a trip when in Surfside!

Fresh baked dog treats
Nate J.

I walked into the establishment, and the line is wrapped around to the door. This is my first indication of the popularity of this place! The business has a lot of staff behind the counter, patrons assigned numbers as they order. The staff are making food, drinks, and taking the complete orders out to patrons as they finish. This shows very efficient operations as line does move fast. There are many drink, and food choices! The decor is wonderful, vintage cameras, and cooking equipment. Excellent place!

A must everytime we are in town! The best bagels, breakfast sandwiches, coffees and even dog treats!

Sarah-Bradley D.

So good we went three times in two days. They have indoor and outdoor seating and ample parking around the store. Service was quick and staff kind. They additionally have to go breads, cookies and muffins. I have never heard of a bialy but now I need to find a way to get them shipped home to Charleston. It ate lighter than a bagel but with all the same flavor and texture. The breakfast sandwich cannot be missed with fresh ingredients but get it on the everything bialy. We got a variety of baked goods including the donut holes, dossant, black and white cookie and coffee cake + blueberry muffins. All were great with the coffee cake muffin and black and white cookie being our favorites. We also loved the iced coffees. Best part? The prices! All so reasonable we didn't feel guilty going back for lunch or ordering half the baked counter. This is a must stop when in Surfside.

This is the extra au jus
Chritopher D.

First time customer and not impressed at all. Sandwich was flat and meat did not have much flavor, bun not toasted at all. I asked for extra au jus and they gave me what a 1/2 oz? I would hate to see what I would had gotten had I not asked. I hope they put more effort into there baked goods

It's across the street in the food lion parking lot. We came around 10am on a Saturday, lots of parking space. It did take about 30mins to get the bagels, so it was not quick service by any means. But it was delicious. Theres a few chairs outside, I did not go inside so I'm not sure how that is, my husband got the bagels. I wanted an asiago , but they were sold out. We got the last 2 plain bagels and it was only 10am so come early. I got a plain egg and cheese with cheddar cheese, onion and tomato. The sandwich was really good, the bagel had a lot of flavor and it was chewy but soft which is how I like it. The egg was cooked well, ate the whole thing and would come back next time we are in town. My husband got an egg , bacon and cheese. He enjoyed it as well.

Not a bad thing if you like your bagel that way. I called in and the gentleman said if I want them black, I need to ask for them that way. ??? We wonder if they even have a toaster. They do not have the conveyer belt toaster. It looked like a quick oven, like a glorified air fryer. I will say it's one of the best bagels we've ever had. And the Bagel Cafe will be our go to for bagels. We got bagels to go and will enjoy them toasted, at home.

First time trying, and honestly won't be back…read more I'll start with the good. Place was clean, the service was excellent and very friendly, albeit slow as it wasn't very busy on this off season week. The friendly service is what upped the stars. Ordered a plain bagel with cream cheese and a toasted everything with butter, and an iced coffee. Husband said coffee was good. We waited 25 min for something that should've taken less than 5. When it came out the everything wasn't toasted but we also didn't want to wait any longer. The bagels were definitely not boiled, and tasted like a piece of bread, not at all like a bagel. The size was ok, but for what we paid, just not worth it. I will stick to my rule of only eating bagels in NJ or north.

You stand in line to order and they bring the food to you when it's done. There's a dining room and a bar as well as patio seating. We ordered four bagels: one plain with grape jelly, one blueberry with strawberry jelly, one bacon egg and pepper jack on Asiago and one bacon, egg, American and bacon scallion cream cheese on jalapeño. We also order two coffees - one iced one hot, orange juice, a sunrise smoothie and a mimosa from the bar. Our sweets order was: donut holes, an Oreo donut and a cinnamon roll. The bagels were all very fresh and made perfectly. The coffees were custom orders and delicious - I had a hot cinnamon hazelnut coffee and it was an amazing combination! The donut holes were our favorite sweet! You could tell they were made fresh! The service was outstanding and the ambience was ideal. The kids loved watching the surfers on the big waves playing on the television! Definitely a must visit spot at OIB!
