Kinda a odd setup for a cafe or diner, because it is island theme like a Captain D. But don't let the design throw u away. Food is pretty good. Standard breakfast food. Omelet is stuff with veggies. Plenty of choices for sides. Pancake is pretty good too. Usually I give this type of place 4 stars unless they offer really good value. Service is very attentive. I been in there for like 30mins. They check up on me 5 times. So every 6mins someone will come by to check on you and offer to top up your coffee. read more

Highly recommend. A note from the kids in the photo: "grandma only takes us out to eat to restaurants that are very very clean (even the potty); is safe, with nice people, and food that is properly prepared and healthy for us. We ordered off the kid's menu. We gave our breakfast a unanimous kids' "ForksUP" salute!" (Grandma says that's the same as Highly Recommend). Grandma ordered the guacamole toast said it was delicious (we will stick to pancakes). read more

Best Hawaiian coffee ever!! Long Island Cafe is my go-to if I'm ever out in Middle Creek I absolutely love their food They are always friendly and they always get you seated in a timely manner They are on top of things. We drove 45 minutes to try this place out and I was not disappointed, It was a 15 minute wait It was mother's Day so it was extremely busy inside. The staff were extremely friendly and on top of everything as soon as somebody left that table was clean The coffee was incredible and the food was very good and way bigger than I expected for some items. They're omelettes pancakes and French toast are amazing but by far my favorite thing was the coffee they even let you take a cup to go read more

Superior service, superior food! I've never had a bad experience with this amazing restaurant. The staff is always great with the customers. The portions are HUGE! You'll never go away hungry. read more

The reviews are legit! From the food, the selection, the server, all was top notch. It's a clean diner with matching tables, a counter area and an island motif. Regan was our server and she couldn't have been more helpful or attentive. We had A caramel pecan pancake as a starter because it sounded so delicious. It was perfect without syrup. Hubby had the chicken bacon ranch wrap and I asked for it in a sandwich. The bacon was perfectly cooked and it had a honey flavor that cut through the light Ranch, lettuce and tomato. The island fries are shaped like a ram's horn and they were crisp and tender. The onion rings were as well. We'll be back! read more

I was visiting from Southern California, and this little gem is one of the best breakfasts I've ever had! My Meditteranean omelette was scrumptious! The place was packed, and I understand why. Great service, too. I will always come back here when I come to town. read more

Food and service was the best ! Server was Don and he was top notch. Portions were good and tasty. We were greeted at the door by possibly the owner who let us in because they were busy & lined up. It took about 2-3 mins to get seated by hostess who was great. Food came out in just a few minutes . Can't say enough about how great they were . We will be back . read more

We're always looking for a new place to stop and have a snack. My husband is a big breakfast fan, I'm not really, but I like to go someplace where I might have a variety. This was your typical diner fair or less It was very noisy. The waitress was frantic. Our order took a long time, and it wasn't very warm. It's a new business, so maybe in a years time will stop it and see how they've improved. Actually, adding this on, not our waitress, but another waitress was upset because she thought I was feeding my Service dog off my fork. And told me so. That's gross. But yes, I do often feed my Service dog because she's a good girl and deserves snacks, but not off my fork. -Per Rita read more

My omelette and pancakes were delicious. Kylee was a fantastic waitress. We left with full bellies and a cup of coffee to go.

Food was great, service was wonderful. It was quite loud. Otherwise it would be 5 stars.

Our group was in town for a wedding and decided to stop by this place for brunch. What wonderful service and food! Scarlett was our server and made us feel welcome right away. She gave us great food recommendations and we all walked away full and happy with enough food to take with us to go. Definitely worth checking out. read more

After a bad experience at the new, renovated hotel-we decided to leave and find a better spot. This was it! It was meant to be. We were immediately greeted by friendly staff members. The awesome service just continued with our service Katelyn. The menu has old favorites and creative dishes depending on your mood. Highly recommend. This changed our outlook on the day! read more

Amazing place for breakfast, very good hot fresh food, huge portions and one of the best breakfasts I recall in decades and we eat out a lot. Home fries were asked to be crispy, prepared perfectly as expected.Fruit cup was over-filled with cantaloupe, pineapple, strawberries, banana and blueberries with a slightly sweet cream. Eggs, they have poached eggs, hallelujah! Coffee is hot and tasty with option of vanilla Carnation creamers, my favorite. Refills were quick to arrive. Super service, wish we were at the shore decor decorations with ample parking. Located across from the airport. LOVE THE PLACE!!! read more

Great food, large portions, fast service, and clean. I came here for breakfast and ordered the Big Island. Eggs, 2 meats, hashbrown or red skin potatoes, and toast or pancake. The food was delicious and hot. I ordered the whole wheat toast instead of the pancake, and it was very good. The coffee was also hot and tasty. If you are in the Battle Creek area, I'd recommended this place. Now I just need to come back for lunch. read more

Love to eat here, but lately it's been busier and busier with servers on their phones instead of taking orders and tables. Last we went we had a small child and someone in a boot on crutches who was not even offered a place to sit while they waited it was a very embarrassing situation as we had hyped the cafe only for them to recieve horrible to no service . read more

Long Island Cafe - Wicked Tai Chicken Soup is excellent and unusual! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Battle Creek, Michigan

I love their food. Fresh and delicious. I get the Mediterranean Omelet. The wait staff is great.

Decent lunch spot with affordable pricing. This place has a "New York" long island theme. Friendly service and prompt servers. I ended up getting a coney dog with fries, added cheese to the dog. It was really good but my dog was luke warm almost room temperature, had it been hot it would have been great. The savior was that this plate only cost $6.98, you don't find prices like that anymore! read more

Long Island Cafe - Coney Dog add Cheese, no onion. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Battle Creek, Michigan

First off, I think this diner will do very, very well in its present location. West side of the city, near the airport? Barely any competition? Smart place to be. Now that Niko's Express as our default breakfast diner on the east side of Kalamazoo is closed, we've been scouting other possibilities. We checked out Long Island Cafe one early Sunday morning. Service: A sign instructing us to seat ourselves greeted us as we walked through the front door. There were a mix of tables with standard and bar stool chairs. There were no booths. There was a counter that could technically seat 4 customers, but the counter had other stuff on it (like a cash register) so I was uncertain how practical it was. No one sat there while we were in the diner. The service was adequate. We were attended to quickly, got our drinks, made our order, and the food came out quickly & hot. But after that, another server arrived for her shift, and our table and several others seemed to have been handed off to her. And this second server seemed less attentive. I ordered wheat toast and the first server brought sourdough. (Okay, not earth shaking. I ate it.) On my second refill of coffee the second server did not realize she was giving me a room temperature refill because the carafe warmers in the kitchen had evidently switched off. I was handed, by the second server, a replacement cup of coffee that had been microwaved and was now bitter (rather than brewing up new coffee and letting me know a replacement would be taking a few minutes). And, lastly, after she gave us our bill, it took forever for her to notice we were waiting to pay. Food: The first two cups of coffee were very good but the only creamer on the table was Coffeemate. My girl ordered the 'Island Vegelicious' - an omelette filled with onions, tomatoes, green peppers, banana peppers, mushrooms, & spinach, accompanied by toast & American fries. The egg portion of the omelette was tender with no evidence of browning or burning. But the vegetables inside had been precooked approaching the point of mush. My girl suspected the vegetables had been reused from the day before, and had been twice precooked. The American fries were potatoes that are cut into cubes and then deep fried. Again, because the potatoes looked like they were heading towards being burnt, my girl figured they were reused from the day before. Plus the potatoes had absorbed cooking oil. And they were unseasoned. My girl was displeased with her breakfast. The server said my first preference ('Corned Beef & Hash') used a canned corn beef hash, so I chose my backup pick: the 'Gulf Coast.' This dish was a mixture of chorizo sausage & scrambled eggs, with four flour tortillas, salsa, & sour cream. It came with toast and a fruit cup, this latter containing slices of apple, strawberries, bananas, and blueberries, covered by some sort of sweet whipped topping. I liked my breakfast because the egg & chorizo mixture was made well and was properly spicy. I'd have preferred corn tortillas but the flour ones were warm & pliable. What was described as a salsa was a disappointment of mostly crushed tomatoes rather than a proper salsa. I'm not terribly fussy about toast since it only serves to convey jelly into my mouth. So, it was an okay experience. We might return and give this diner a second chance. read more

$16 average omelette, 75 cents for an unsealed tablespoon of honey for my biscuit, and the tip recommendations for the illiterate start at 20%. I won't be back, nor will I recommend anybody that wants garbage in Battle Creek. Ever. Servers should abandon ship. Bu-bye. read more

Finding a good food especially at country side ie very hard. Sometimes they taste completely different than how they are supposed to taste. Long Island cafe nailed with their egg Benedict and their house salad with NY strip stake. Probably the most accurate food taste in Battle Creek/Sprint field area you can get. read more

We went at 9 AM on Thursday. Table for 2. There was plenty of space. Lots of folks in there eating, but not too loud either.The menu has lots of options. Enough to appeal to anyone, but not enough to overwhelm.. I got the sugar pearl waffles and they were amazing. My husband got some sort of egg, hashbrown, gravy combination that he thought was delicious as well. The coffee was also very tasty. Portion sizes were large, cost was appropriate. Was appropriate. Friendly staff, clean environment. We will definitely be back. Nice to have an option for this type of restaurant and this side of town. read more

I've been wanting to try Long Island Cafe since it opened, and finally had an opportunity in my schedule to do just that. All the social media platforms I'm on had photo shares galore of all the tasty food. I was absolutely not disappointed and the hype was authentic. I always order biscuits and gravy my first time at any breakfast spot. In my opinion, if they don't have the B&G down then I'm not interested in trying anything else. The gravy was thick, but not pasty. There was a lot of sausage throughout the gravy, but not too much. It paired perfectly with two sausage patties on the side. My friend got the french toast sandwich and it looked amazing too!! YUMMY! read more

Always busy but we'll worth it, the food is phenomenal, wait staff is quick and prices great.

I have ordered takeout many times and I just recently visited once. The food here is great! They have always provided excellent service and the restaurant is clean. The only reason I didn't give them 5 stars is the restaurant is too small. It may be time for them to think about expansion! You won't go wrong eating here. Worth every penny! read more

They have incredible gyros with soft, fluffy french fries.

I like the fish and chips they serve also breakfast menu . The service is extremely great there. John Lewis Finch jr

The food is very good, the service was excellent. The coffee was old and should have been dumped.

Had a great experience here. The food was excellent but the prices are a little higher than most of the similar restaurants in the area. It won't keep me from coming back and bringing friends though! read more
