Great service , great tuna , chicken salads with different varieties. Bagels are nice big and made the old fashioned way . Great staff and clean place . Definitely worth a try read more

They've really fallen off. It's really a hit or miss with this place. The hot sandwiches aren't worth it. They are really cheap with the portions. The eggs were paper thin and watery tasting. One extremely thin slice of meat. The brewed ice tea just tasted of very faint lemon water. Service is a hit or miss. Such a shame because this location used to be extremely good. read more

9 times out of 10, our order is incorrect; even simple things! We always call ahead and our order is never ready when we arrive. This place used to be great but idk what happened in the last few years. Driving out to another location is more than worth your time and gas. It suck's because the bagels taste great...but that's about it. They also don't have all the menu items listed online available at this location. read more

Decided to try this place. It was pretty busy. Batches of people came in and I think it was only busy because they couldn't get the food out in time. We ordered a turkey egg and cheese, bagel with lettuce tomato onions lox and scallion cream cheese, apple cinnamon cream bagel, and the sun dried tomato cream cheese bagel. All on different bagels scooped out and toasted. Plus some coffee. Now that took nearly 20 mins...crazy. the lox sandwich came with one of their sides so I chose potato salad. That was NOT good. They were a bit lite on the smear. I actually liked the sun-dried tomato cream cheese. Felt their bagels tasted a bit on the dry side. The staff was nice and friendly. Especially, this one guy with dreads. He seemed to connect with repeat customers. Oddly the pastries they offered did not look appetizing. There was a black and white cookie big enough to feed a family of 4. As a chef, I don't think they are using the space correctly. It looks and feels cluttered. They should try and stream line the service to get the food out faster. Also work on quality... I finished my whole coffee way before I even got my food. Lots of great bagel spots near the area, this was not one of them. read more

Every time I order here, my order is wrong. It doesn't matter if it's in store or over the phone, somehow they can't write down simple instructions that are clearly conveyed. I order a sandwich and 2 wraps over the phone today (chicken Caesar salad wrap and egg salad wrap). I waited 20 minutes before heading in just to see that they didn't even bother making the chicken wrap order. After waiting for 5 minutes, they hand me my food and told me that they don't have croutons or cheese. I was confused why they didn't address this before making it or while I was waiting for them to finish. All this just to find out they didn't even bother putting Caesar dressing either on a chicken Caesar salad wrap! Also didn't bother including other ingredients on the egg salad wrap. Better off going anywhere else other than here. read more

Ordered 3 eggs and ham. Hardly got one. But certainly charged me for three. 15 bucks for this, and a large water. read more

I asked for a bagel with turkey bacon, egg whites I received a bagel with slices of Turkey & pork bacon with over cooked egg whites. Very disappointed in this place we try and support the local businesses and this is what you get nasty food. Just a quick note to the owner or Mgr of this place. The way the ceiling dust is hanging from vents and drop ceiling should be cleaned along with the white fan with mounds of black dust. I'm amazed that this dust isn't falling onto the bagels and food below. read more

French toast bagel was good. The guy at the counter could be friendlier. A how about have a nice day or thank you once the transaction was over. I was running late and this is where I ended up. Just ok service. Won't be back. These places are a dime a dozen. Be nice to your customers. read more

I am from the boroughs and I know a good bagel when I have one; this was the best bagel I have had since I moved to Long Island! And I didn't have to ask for extra bitter it was tasted and buttered perfectly. Something about a New York bagel toasted and buttered that just satisfies an empty tummy. I had an onion bagel and it was delicious, not too many onion pieces on the outside and not too overpowering of an onion taste. The service was really fast, efficient and friendly. It's a typical bagel shop deli experience an in and out type of vibe. I'll definitely be back to try other items. read more

We used LIBC to cater our party. The food was AMAZING from the steaks, to the burgers, potato salad and sausages & peppers-- you name it, all of it was delicious. Most importantly the servers and the bartender were all so kind, attentive and really on-top of everything. A special shout-out to Damon and Joe for working with me and my team to get everything just the way we wanted it. We LOVED everything!! In case you haven't tried them yet, we highly recommend you do. read more

I placed an hour 2 hours ago on Grubhub for a bagel a with eggs and bacon, and hour later this is what arrives , spent $20 on this between delivery chargers and tip. I called to tell them they forgot my bagel and the guy said he would bring it. I waited another hour to find out they closed. I never be ordering from here again!!! read more

Decent bagel spot. Nothing special for long island but good none the less. Not as many cream cheese and side options as some other places but the ones they do have are decent. Coffee is good and service is fast and decently friendly. Id skip their chicken salad and tuna. Not a huge fan, just stick to their bagels and cream cheese or butter. read more

I went in to order 4 pieces everything bagel scooped out tossed it a bit of butter scallion cream cheese and 5 slices of tomatoes I totally understand that prices have gone up and no problem charge me for it But Where it got weird is that they wanted to charge me $1 per slice of tomato Come on $20 for 20 slices of tomato REALLY? I canceled the order and left I will never go back read more

The bagels are good. But they totally cheap out on the cream cheese! I paid extra for scallion cream cheese, what a joke! Such a thin little spread read more

Extremely rude employees that mess up simple orders and blame you for their mistakes. Avoid this bagel store.

Came here to pick up some food before a training I had in baldwin. I ordered the food at least 25 minutes in advance and it still wasn't ready. I got a chicken and mozzarella sandwich and I got a macaroni salad with it. The chicken was dry and undercooked & as well the macaroni salad had a very tart expired taste. It seems it was sitting out and it went bad. For the price they charge you would think it would be better and the cashier she was very rude and rushed me. I gave them a star since the breakfast sandwich was okay (bacon egg and cheese) prices are a little wild though read more

0 stars if possible. People are nasty food fast like nothing very dry don't follow directions either.

French Toast Bagel with butter?!?!?! Absolutely SICK! Not good...Not great...S-I-C-K !!!!!

My family and I have given Baldwin Bagel Cafe substantial business for over a decade. Sadly, today marks the end of that. To be fair, the quality of the bagels and spreads are pretty solid and the lox is always fresh. But paying almost top dollar for average food is hardly worth tolerating the way their staff treats customers and the ridiculous wait time. I stopped to place a family order of 6 bagels and it wasn't very busy. I was attended by "Eva." She was unnecessarily dismissive and disrespectful, making comments to the other female worker and mocking the way I ordered. When I asked her if there was a problem, she shrugged and continued to laugh. She brought out my order completely wrong. I had to restate what I wanted and remind her to please toast the bagels, which she failed to do. When my order was finally ready 25 mins later, I was already too disillusioned with the service I simply left with whatever it was she gave me. Sure enough, two of the bagels were purposely all wrong: I'd asked for turkey bacon and got ham. Go figure.. The parking is tedious; not so much entering but exiting the lot. Though this isn't necessarily their fault and it's just Grand Ave structure. read more

The cashier the black young lady with Auburn hair. Sorry I don't know her name she is nice...and very professional..

Thank you CJ (Baldwin) for taking care of us. The service is great and so is the food.

Fool me once.. The food is basic enough but the wait is ridiculous. Even when it's quiet with only 1 or 2 customers you will wait far too long for the most simple dishes. I ordered scrambled eggs, bacon and hash browns....10-12 minutes. The place had one other customer when I walked in. I wasn't even in a hurry but we are talking about a dish that literally takes 5 minutes to make or less given bacon & sometimes hash is usually prepared early on. Basing this solely on observation and mngmt. experience, the delay times are caused by lack of attention by the staff. Often the dish is finished but the staff doesn't check on the orders in the back. I've complained twice before and each time I say something the dish is miraculously ready 30 seconds later. And they always say "it takes a little longer". I guess they forget people have eaten at other places for years and we can tell what a long time is by comparison. I will absolutely no longer go to this location. If they are not paying attention when it's quiet....what else is wrong that we don't see? When it comes to food that's enough to scratch a place off the list. Update: July 2019 and I still won't go back to here. But if you are on the way, go to Ferrings about 1-1/2 miles up the road toward the SS parkway. First time back there in a long time. I ordered 2 breakfast sandwiches and they were done in 5 min tops. Price about the same give or take. read more

I just had a BBQ catered by Long Island Bagel Cafe. They did an amazing job from the set up to the cooking all the way through the clean up. I highly recommend them. Don't let the bagel store name frighten you away. They put out an amazing spread with an equally beautiful presentation. The staff was excellent as well. read more

Ordered from here through door dash. First issue was that I ordered a hot regular coffee and got a ice coffee. Not a huge deal but annoying when your paying for what you want. Second issue- I ordered a sausage, egg and cheese. I ate one half of the sandwich. As I picked up the other half to eat I noticed a piece of "hair like" substance sticking out the sandwich. I opened the sandwich and there was a black, long piece of hair intertwined between the egg and sausage. I am African American and this piece of hair was straight, long, jet black. I am utterly disgusted and would not recommend this establishment to anyone. read more

Just had my son and daughters graduation party. LI Bagel Cafe did an outstanding job. Food was great. The staff that cooked and served the food were tremendous. If you were not aware that they did catering (and not just bagels) you should seriously consider them. Five Stars all around. read more

Usually this place has always great customer service but unfortunately this last time the service was terrible. It was a Sunday, I ordered a pick up over the phone. When I arrived the lady who helped had an attitude. I told her I was picking up a phone order and she said that they didn't have the order. I told her to please check again, she gives me more attitude and asks her coworker who replies that the order was ready. She screams at him and reminds him that on Sundays they don't take phone orders. She puts the order in a bag and I remind her that the order brings a bagel, she rolls her eyes at me and turns around to prepare the bagel, without even asking me which bagel I wanted. She puts the bagel in the bag and I tell her that I wanted a toasted bagel, she takes the bagel and throws it and proceeds to tell her coworker to make the bagel because she's annoyed. Disrespectful and unnecessary, should teach this person some manners! read more

These people know what they're doing! Not only is the food delicious but their customer service; their management is outstanding! They have catered couple of occasions of mine (including my wedding), and they have not disappointed me. Definitely recommend this place; whether to grab a meal or to have your event catered. *side note: they're wings and ribs come right off the bone! Planning having it every superbowl party* read more

Best bagels around. Great staff, very professional, very clean. There bacon egg and cheese is the best on the island.

This used to be my favorite place to get a bagel, muffin, or egg sandwich until I realized they are unsanitary. The staff use the same glove to accept money, use the cash register, make drinks, and prepare food. I witnessed this three different times and had to ask for the worker to change his glove before handling my food. I hate to do it, but I will have to patronize another bagel shop because Lord knows what happens in the kitchen. read more

Horrible !!! Every order is always incorrect or missing something ! They give you burnt sandwiches all the time & they even put grapes in my sandwich before !! Who does that? They do !!! read more

Service here is not customer friendly, this establishment doesn't deserve your business. Bad energy and bad vibes.

I've been a once a week regular here. It's going downhill. I went Thanksgiving morning. They served day old product. Why open? My bagle with butter had barley any butter on it. There are much better options available in Baldwin, RVC area. It's time for a change. read more

If you are coming from Virginia like me, this place would be a 5 compared to the bagels I get at home! I was shown this place by some of the locals in Long Island on the way to the train station. I was only in NY for the weekend, and I went to this bagel shop every morning! They have a great selection of bagels and baked goods! read more

I have been here a few times and each time has been a good experience. Bagels are fresh. A toasted bagel with cream cheese for $1.90 is a great deal. I tried the knish sandwich. Very good and a hell of loat cheaper than Press 195 in Rockville Centre. Staff is always friendly and attentive. I will definitely be back. read more

It was good. Prices were fair. Parking can be a hassle and so can the exit. But overall a good place to grab food and sit down and eat. read more

I have a love hate relationship with this place. I think they have some of the best bagels around but the service is abysmal. They will stop to talk to regulars during the weekend morning rush, will help others before finishing your order (and then forget about your order all together). Staff is nice just very disorganized. Good bagels, if you want the best experience have a friend pick up your order for you! read more

The food is good.. the service not so much. They told me 20 minutes until pick up.. when I got to the store I waited an extra 20 minutes. They got my order wrong. I ordered 3 breakfast sandwiches and 3 drinks. The total came out to $26.. that's a little excessive in my opinion : / read more

If you don't mind waiting for 15 minutes for them to get you a toasted bagel with cream cheese then this is the place for you!!

The bagels are some of the best around. The egg sandwiches are very good. However, the apathetic employees make me feel like a huge bother anytime I place an order. I've attempted to call ahead an order, been told by an employee on the phone that he "can't take any orders right now," and walk in 5 minutes later to an empty store. If the staff here even pretended like they were happy to be there, this would become my go-to bagel place on the way to work. read more

I have to say there food is usually good when the order is made correctly which a lot of the time is not but their customer service leaves a LOT to be desired. The ladies at the front are extremely rude and condescending wish their service was better everyone at our facility has sworn off ordering from them for this very reason. read more
