I recently checked out Strathmore Bagels under its new ownership, and I had a great experience! The staff was super friendly and welcoming right when I walked in, and they have an impressive selection of bagels and cream cheeses (I'm definitely coming back to try the new S'mores flavor). I ordered a roast beef and cheese sandwich on an egg bagel, and it was piled high--such generous portions! It came with a side, so I opted for the macaroni salad, which was delicious. To top it off, I picked up a mini cake from Sweet Designs by Randi for the perfect sweet finish to lunch. I'll definitely be back soon! read more

Before coming here for the first time I read some of the reviews online and I saw a lot of mixed reactions, however I also read that the establishment was under new management and service was way better. I can 100% agree--the person who took my order was absolutely sweet and had a great attitude, she even checked in on us to see if everything was going alright--very hospitable. The food was great, price range was very reasonable, and the atmosphere was peaceful and welcoming. there's nothing to not like about this spot, might be one of my new favorite bagel places. read more

Ate take out today from strathmore bagels and cafe. Sandwiches and salads were fantastic

Bagels were fresh and very soft. Chicken salad was delicious and I am very picky about my chicken salad. The staff was very friendly. I highly recommend this bagel place for a great breakfast or lunch!! Nikki S read more

We had delicious egg sandwiches there this weekend. We went back the next day and tried their macaroni and potatoes salads which were so good! What a pleasure it was to be greeted with smiles from the staff. The place was so clean and I would highly recommend this restaurant. It's our new favorite place. read more

Can't say enough positive things about the Strathmore Bagels in Riverhead. Food was outstanding and the service was even better. Pricing VERY reasonable. We had the breakfast special - haven't seen pricing like that in years. read more

Worst coffee I've ever tasted. Way overpriced and poorly made egg sandwiches. I don't recommend this place. Go to bagel lovers or signature instead. read more

Coworkers and I ordered for the office this past Wednesday. The 3 of us that ordered The Soprano got food poisoning and were all throwing up with stomach aches . Food also lacked condiment and sandwiches a were dry. Absolutely never ordering from here again. read more

Sadly this place has poor management and the employees are totally rude after they ignore you for 10 minutes They never have the right orders when you call in read more

First red flag, at 9:45 on a Saturday morning there was no line. Second red flag, barely any bagels available. Third red flag, the guy took my order, then took the orders of the next two customers, getting bagels for them. I had an egg order, so I would figure that should have been out into the kitchen. read more

DO NOT COME HERE!!!! Well now I have heard everything I was charged $1.50 to toast my bagel. All together we had 2 bagels with cream cheese and 2 small coffees it came to $16.00. The bagels were one of the worst we've ever had it had no flavor. We could have gone to the grocery store and bought some and eaten them plain and it would have been better. read more

First of all, I've been coming to this place for many years. The bagels were good. The service was excellent. Since the place was sold, the place has gone downhill. I admit that the eggs they make are good, but the service is terrible. The eggs are good, but by the time it's given to the customer, it's ice cold. Have you ever heard of a Diner/bagel shop running out of coffee? They did, and more than once. How can you completely run out of coffee when you have two coffee stations on the Customer side of the counter, and a coffee maker behind the counter. It boggles my mind. And, when I bring it to their attention, it doesn't seem to matter to them. The owner sincerely tries to do right, but the two boys behind the counter are clueless. In the bagel, business, good bagels, good coffee, and good service, or essential. The owner has got to get a better grip on his store, or they'll be no customers left. read more

This bagel store has gone downhill since they got new owners. The bagels are overpriced, and chewy. The sausage and bacon is definitely not real bacon and sausage, I don't know what it is exactly. The sausage patty looked like a hamburger and the bacon was a strange color, chewy and altogether not appetizing. We couldn't even eat it. Make the extra drive and go somewhere else. read more

good bagels, could eat a few at a time, surprised how well-textured egg bagel here is, it's not hard like everywhere else, would go great as a foundation for a meat sandwich. Try it! read more

My boyfriend and I enjoyed delicious bagels here today and found the staff very friendy! We'd definitely come again.

Becspk on evi bagel both sandwiches were delicious. Bagels are soft. Service a little slow. But very nice workers. Everything bagels actually had salt on it. Have self service coffee station. Would recommend going here. read more

Under new management, food is fresh, smoothies are made with real fruit. They have it all from bagels special sandwiches and most importantly a super clean area. Service is 10/10 very nice gentleman who cares for your genuine opinion of food and overall experience! Definitely a change from before read more

Excellent service, extremely nice workers. A gentlemen came around and asked everyone if they needed anything. I've never seen that before at a deli. I had a BEC and it was actually to standards as the old Strathmore, very happy in that note. read more

WOW, ONLY 2.6 STARS. I'm not surprised. The customer service I recently received a few days ago was not even worth 1 star. First the person who was taking my order just walked away before I was finished with the order which was rude in itself. Only for me to see that he has cut my bagel after playing with his ponytail with the very gloves he cut my bagel with. Disgusting. I was walking out, only to hear another employee ( Daniella ) Gooood Bye sarcastically. No customer deserves to be treated like this. There are many other choices to choose from in Riverhead to get a bagel. Don't just hire bodies!!! Because your employees can make or ruin your business. read more

Ordered a sausage egg and cheese with salt pepper and ketchup on a plain bagel. The top half is a bagel, the bottom half is a roll. Very confused and disgusted. Never again, Strathmore. read more

I got a bagel with cream cheese and had hair in it. I tried calling but no answer. Nasty place

I have lived in the Riverhead area for about 5 years now and when I first arrived I was thrilled to have a Strathmore bagel shop nearby and this bagel cafe did not disappoint. Unfortunately, in the last 6 month or so I have been less than happy with the service and quality of this "Bagel Cafe". In just the last 3 times I have been here, nothing has been made either correctly or to the quality that I have come accustom to. Coffee: certainly not hot! 2 sugars (teaspoons) please, not 2 shovels! Bagel: very cold, like came from outside cold. Egg Sandwich: Lets get the order right. EHSPK ROLL means eggs, ham, salt, pepper, ketchup. Service: There are two older guys that do pretty well. The taller thin guy runs like the dickens. My hat's off to you guy. The ladies during the holidays were terrible. Leaving customers standing around while they are sitting in a customers booth. Also unfortunately the younger staff seem to be like most other places, entitlement attitudes and just lack of fellow man respect. Sorry "Bagel Cafe" I will be going else where. read more

What do you have to do to get a bagel around here? Apparently, you have to be a clown with a shopping cart, a dog and a penis. I was ignored while three male customers who were not even in the store before me were helped while I was left to stand there- and wonder why I was invisible and could not get anyone to engage. Even the clown with the shopping cart and dog- who was asked to remove the shopping cart, so he left and came back in- got served before me. I will not be back- this middle aged female bagel lover will not be ignored. Three stars because I love there bagels. read more

Decent enough food. Occasionally they got our order wrong and we would have to go back to fix it. NO vegan options.

This place use to be a lot better, something has gone ary here, very slow service, (20 min) for an egg sandwich, and they were not super busy, they also got my order wrong, (asked for 2 fried eggs got one) the coffee was also not made right, even though I let the individual who was serving me how I wanted it. I will probably not be returning. The owner is usually here, however did not see him, perhaps that is why, On the up side the Bagels are good. read more

Its a hit or miss experience. Depending on who takes your order and who prepares it will dictate the price and quality of the sandwich ordered. I was a routine customer until it became a 50/50 chance on if my sandwich will come out satisfactory or not. When being charged almost 9 dollars for a roastbeef sandwich and getting next to no roast beef and the ends of the lettuce and then they forgot the cheese, its upsetting considering the price. I've gotten better premade sandwiches i stop and shop. I gave the place 3 stars because you can't do 2.5. Since the odds of my sandwich being satisfactory are 50/50, that's where my rating comes from. Please look at the pics of my meals i posted since words don't serve justice but a pic doesnt lie. I dislike the fact that i have to order my breakfast by my house and take it into work as it gets cold by then but at least they are consistent. read more

Super friendly. Got a bunch of bagels all of which were good. Coffee was fine, not great. Tried the french toast bagel, which was fine but not special. read more

Picture says it all. Girl was miserable that took my order figured maybe that's because of the horrible weather. The same girl made my sandwich which was such a mess I could even eat it. $5.50 down the drain. Disgrace to other strathmores read more

Strathmore Bagel Cafe - A complete mess. - Bagels Near Me - Riverhead, New York

I used to go here all the time on my lunch breaks until one day I asked for a LIGHTLY toasted bagel. I left and went back to my job to see that my bagel was so burnt it was black. The guy handed me my food like eveythigg big was great, knowing that he messed up and clearly he didn't care. I don't plan on coming back in to this place again. read more

Been there quite a few times, not impressed at all, today my wife orders an easy over fried egg on a roll, when she took the first bite realized egg was barely cooked and the yoke made a mess all over, unedible... I told the kid at the counter and he said sorry nothing I can do... I left it on the counter and left! I would not recommend this place to anyone. read more

Third time here; each time I have been promptly served and they even bring your egg sandwich out to your table for you. sandwich also comes with a drink and home fries for five and change. My go to spot when I'm in the area working. Bagels are great as well, can't seem to figure out the bad reviews. Good manners and a dollar in the tip jar goes a long way. read more

Service is so bad here. Food is great though! Girl on the phone didn't even know their menu and kept having to ask someone else if they had what I was ordering (bagel with flavored cream cheese and a sausage egg sandwich). She also didn't tell me when my order would be ready I had to ask her myself, she needs to be trained on proper phone etiquette. When I went to pick up my order the young boy was rude and when I asked to add an easy extra cream cheese bagel to my pickup order, he gave me a dirty look, walked to the other side and told an older lady l added to my order, and she gave me a dirty look as well. Then he was overall unfriendly to me the rest of the transaction. Keep in mind I was the only customer in line everyone else in the building was already helped and sitting down/paid up already so it's not like he was busy! Food is always good, just wish the people who worked there were nicer and better workers. read more

Poor customer service skills. Be careful of sneaky tactics. Bagel was stale. Seats were dirty and garbage on floors.

A nice little bagel shop in Riverhead. Very clean, the staff very accommodating with a wide selection of bagels even more esoteric flavors like blueberry and strawberry. Reasonablt priced-i would recommend and return. read more

Grabbed some bagels and home fries from here the other day and was disappointed as I have been here many times before and the food has always been excellent. The bagels still have a wonderful flavor but the staff needs to put in a little more. The bagel was supposed to be toasted and it was seemingly warmed up but still had the consistency of one that hadn't been in the toaster. The bagel had WAY too much cream cheese on it, and it was all stuck together in one huge glob because the person must have just scooped it out and stuck it on there, thus making it rather messy and difficult to eat. The home fries were just potatoes, no onion or peppers. Sad for a place I used to frequent when I worked out here. read more
