This place is SO unassumming! My girl & I had passed by it several times during out weekend in Cape May. But I was craving a breakfast sandwich so we came to check it out. WoW. From the outside you'd never know the treat that awaits you inside! Who knew there was an Orea flavored cream cheese? Or horseradish & cheddar? Or olive pimenta? Or bacon lox scallion? I kinda wish I would have discovered this place sooner so I could have sampled more of the flavors! Anyway, we both go the Lox w/Salmon/onions & capers with cream cheese on a bagel. And I couldn't finish it. I saved the second half for the next morning and it was still tasty! So, to summarize, you can choose your cream cheese and your bagel (everything bagel, wheat, plain, etc.). And of course they've got other items to choose from. Avocado toast was my second option. ...a hidden gem. read more

The service was absolutely amazing: friendly, attentive, and made us feel very welcome from the moment we walked in. The only downside was the food and coffee. We ordered toasted bagels, but they were barely toasted and tasted more like plain bagels. The coffee was unfortunately very disappointing as well. Even after adding half-and-half, I couldn't finish it because of the taste. The outstanding service is the reason I'd consider giving this place another try, and I hope they can improve the bagels and coffee because the staff truly deserves recognition. read more

We thought we would stop in for a non sit down breakfast wanting it to be fast and not as expensive. It was neither of those things. We walked in and it was super crowded. This seems to be one of the few places like this in the area and everyone comes here. Which is why I assume they can charge outrageous prices. We tried to order a yogurt fruit bowl but they were out of fruit so we ordered 2 avocado toasts, a latte and a black coffee. It was $46. Am I the only one that almost fell over? The avocado toasts were pretty good and big. We could have shared one if I had known. We also waited so long for them. Then the coffees were not even good I had to go get coffee somewhere else not too long after. Just know if you come here it will be pricey. read more

Bagel Time-Cafe has 2 locations in Cape May County and they are both dog friendly! We enjoyed their CAPE MAY location and loved that leashed and friendly dogs are allowed at their indoor and outdoor seating! They have a cute space inside and located right across the street from the beach! Breakfast and lunch items are available including freshly baked bagels, breakfast sandwiches, eggs, spreads, sides, and even vegan options including Just Egg and vegan cheese. Check out their Wildwood location too! read more

Bagel Time Cafe - Cafes Near Me - Cape May, New Jersey

Wide variety of large NY style bagels. In addition, a variety of cream cheese fillings. I ordered an everything bagel with light veggie cream cheese and I could barely finish it. I also ordered a berry bowl that was full of fresh blues berries, strawberries, raspberries and blackberries. It was big enough to share. There is seating both inside and outside. Coffee is fresh and very hot, which I appreciate. There is quite a large breakfast and lunch menu and service is quick and efficient. No photos. Ate everything too fast! read more

No better place in Cape May to have that morning bagel sandwich then bagel time. Incredible bagels and the eggs so fluffy so light so delicious. Definitely worth the stop and don't forget to add a cup of their special coffee. Bagels are so good. We brought a bag full back to Pennsylvania. and what better place to have breakfast and sitting on Ocean Boulevard looking out to the ocean. read more

Bagel Time Cafe - Asiago bagel with an egg. - Cafes Near Me - Cape May, New Jersey

We had a great breakfast at bagel time cafe. I had a plain bagel with egg. It was wonderful. We sat outside. It was a nice sunny day. My son had a bagel with cream cheese. I also had fresh squeezed orange juice. It tasted home made. read more

Food was very good. However: I did get shorted a bagel in which I paid for and my bagels were not toasted as I had asked for. read more

Good service, but the bagels are not very good. They tasted like a dinner roll not a bagel.

Best bagels in town!!! No doubts about it. Quick service and perfect service!! No complaints. Morning coffee and bagels are a must at this place. read more

Finally. These are really good bagels. As close to a NY bagel as you can get. Their cream cheese spreads are also delicious.

This place was great! The bagel sandwiches were delicious. Generous portions. Friendly staff.

Hidden gem across the street from the beach! Definitely a locals favorite and for a good reason!

Whole wheat everything bagel! Was delicious! Hard to find whole wheat ANYTHING! Also the coffee was fresh and hot. The folks behind the counter were very nice. Place is always busy but it moves along quickly. read more

This restaurant/breakfast place has a charming underground theme that I enjoyed. However, it is quite pricey, as a simple coffee with almond milk and cinnamon cost me about 7 dollars (if you're into super sugary coffee this place might not be it for you). The staff was friendly and cheerful, but the place was crowded on the weekend and there was a long line to get in. The food was tasty, especially the bagels that were fresh and satisfying. The service and the food were good, but the cost was high. I would recommend this restaurant, but only if you are willing to pay more than usual, right across from the beach it is a very nice spot to run into. Recommend. read more

This is hands down the best breakfast spot I've been to in Cape May! Breakfast for 2 came out to $16 and the price is unbeatable. The food was so good that we came here two days in a row. I tried the cheddar jalapeño bagel, the lox cream cheese, pork roll omlette with home fries and whole wheat toast and the bacon egg and cheese breakfast sandwich on a bagel. All were delicious!! The bagels are so fresh, crispy on outside and soft on inside. I didn't think I could get a bagel this good in south jersey. I came off season in May so I can imagine the line being pretty long in the summer. read more

Pleasant surprise! Delicious bagels with some tasty ice coffee! Many other options on the menu and would try other choices!

I can see that this place gets good reviews because of the decor. If that is why you get bagels, then this is the place. If you go there for the bagels you will be disappointed. Yes the service is slow, but I sort of expect that at a beach resort. No one in the place is motivated to move quickly. The bagels were terrible. the bagels that we got were all stale and gummy inside. As other reviews mentioned, the place is super expensive. I would normally give them a pass on the price if the product was good, but it was not. I ordered a bagel with cream cheese. I should have checked it before I left but the wait was so long that I wanted to get back to my family. When I opened my wrapper and looked at the bagel it looked like they had forgot the cream cheese. When I opened the bagel the cream cheese looked like a thin layer of paint. I didn't think it was possible to spread cream cheese that thin! This was a real slap in the face after paying the exorbitant prices. Say away! read more

$25 for 2 mid coffees and the worst breakfast sandwich I have ever eaten in New Jersey. No exaggeration. Also disgustingly crowded.

Great fresh bagel Great coffee and iced latte Fast service A good fine in cape may read more

Breakfast Bagels are stacked with fluffy eggs. Bagel is perfection- crispy on outside, doughy goodness on the inside. The place is packed but the staff is friendly and fast. Plenty of seating outside. Coffee is excellent too which is not always the case for bagel shops. read more

good not amazing, probably more of a 3.5/5 than a 3/5 but yardy. shoutout to bagels, coffee was aight

This is the best omelet in Cape May, period. The bagels are not much different than those you get in Manhattan. I have lived in Cape May for 32 years. If you want the best quality breakfast in Cape May, this is the place. read more

Giving it two stars because the staff was very friendly and quick, but this has to be the worst bagel I've had in New Jersey. The sandwich (eggs cheese etc) was good, but the bagel itself tasted like Thomas' or another store brand. The cold brew was also very watery. read more

Great Prices! Great Food! Very Nice people that are very welcoming! Very modern feel with nice couches and lighting! read more

Bagel Time Cafe - Cinnamon Raisin Bagel W/ Butter - Cafes Near Me - Cape May, New Jersey

Wanted to love this place as we've seen the long lines here during our trip. Took a walk up first thing this morning. Ordered 2 whole wheat everything bagels with blueberry cream cheese. Bagels were definitely not fresh at all, and very bready as opposed to a normal bagel chewiness.. they were super light on the cream cheese also. For 13 bucks, no thanks. Avalon coffee around the corner has much better bagels... read more

So good! First time here although we have seen it before. So happy we tried it. Bagels were fresh and delicious. The blueberry cream cheese and blueberry bagel was a fantastic combo. Fresh OJ was so good. Good coffee and smoothies as well. Can't wait to come back here every time we are in the Cape! read more

Stopped for breakfast before hitting the beach. The bagels were incredibly fresh, perfectly toasted (crunchy on the exterior but still soft on the interior). The smell of the everything bagels coming from the toaster were mesmerizing. We got bacon egg and cheese on an everything bagel and pork roll and cheese on a blueberry bagel (sorry no pics of that one). The bacon was perfectly cooked not too crunchy and not too fatty. There was an insane amount of seasoning on the bagel which is exactly what I want to see, not a sprinkling that you get from some places. Also whatever cheese they use is perfect for these kind of sandwhiches. Even the seagulls thought it was delicious as one swooped down and took half my sandwhich out of my hand The porkroll was the perfect thickness and was a delicious combination of savory and sweet on the blueberry bagel. Sounds like a strange combo but I definately recommend it. We will definately be back read more

Tried for the first time recently. Bagel with cream cheese and a bagel sandwich. For a bacon, egg, and cheese bagel, it somehow lacked flavor. Was still good though. The veggie cream cheese was flavorful, but the everything bagel could have had more seasoning on it. Service was great, staff was friendly. I wish the cream cheeses in the case at the counter were labeled so you could see what was still available. I wish a menu was posted or the were available at the start of the line as well. Will definitely go again read more

We grabbed an early breakfast (around 7:30) on Sunday morning. I am definitely glad we decided to go early because this place was SLAMMED when we walked by later in the morning. Our breakfast sandwiches were so good! The food came out really fast & the coffee was good too! We enjoyed sitting outside before the sun had come up completely. Would definitely recmmend! read more

Excellent for quick breakfast. Lots of bagel and cream cheese options with the fluffiest eggs I've ever had on a bagel sandwich. Came here multiple times as a result. Even the seagulls couldn't stay away (one took a bite out of my husbands despite our best efforts to keep them away). read more

Stopped by here on a Sunday morning. It was busy but the staff was efficient. The only negative I would have to say is that the one register was asking for a name for your order for when your order is ready and the girl who rung us up did not ask for a name therefore causing some confusion when our order was ready and if it was actually ours. My boyfriend and I both got a cold brew coffee which was good. He ordered a pork roll, egg and cheese on an everything bagel which he enjoyed. I had the avocado toast which was amazing. By far one of the best I've had. It was loaded with goat cheese, arugula, cherry tomatoes and balsamic. Overall, great beach spot which delicious food. Would definitely return. read more

Had an excellent western omelette here that was defiantly big enough to share and was also delighted that they offered fresh squeezed orange juice. This is a lovely beach front setting and we enjoyed the coffee as well. We did not have an opportunity yet to try the bagels but they looked delightful and fresh. We are looking forward to checking it out again on our next trip to town. read more

We got a half dozen bagels and a container of cream cheese with lox. We were lucky to find parking right away. Bagels are good. Service was friendly and responsive. It's a little pricey but a decent bagel. The iced chai tea latte was absolutely delicious. read more

Bagel Time Cafe - Blueberry cream cheese on everything bagel - Cafes Near Me - Cape May, New Jersey

Quick coffee to go!! This place has it down to a science--bagels and coffee! Nice outdoor seating- we picked up this time and it was a short wait for a Sunday at 0900 in August! Smells great too!!! Bagels are awesome!! read more

I ordered a cappuccino. They said we don't have skim milk - only almond, oat or soy. So I said okay, "oat." I get the check. They charged me 75 cents more for oat milk. Call me crazy but don't you have to have a dairy product in your capp to make it a capp in the first place? So why am I being charged extra??? And why not mention it's extra? And the coffee was indescribably HOT. Like crazy hot. Hotter than McDonald's got sued for hot. I had to take it home to put ice in it before I could drink it. I could barely hold it even the sleeve on it. Def a lawsuit waiting to happen. So basically get your coffee at any of the other hundred places in Cape May. This isn't the place for it. I will say that the bagel my daughter got was humongous. Cost about $5 for her plain bagel with cream cheese. read more

Bagels taste prepackaged and almost refrigerator-y. I thought this place would have been incredible given the lines and hype, but nah. Taste like a bagel you would get in North Carolina...pass. read more

I stopped at the Cafe with my friend to pick up breakfast to enjoy on the beach. It's conveniently located right across the street from the beach. Inside was clean and inviting. I had trouble deciding what to order, until I spotted the blueberry bagels! I ordered it lightly toasted with strawberry cream cheese. When I opened it on the beach, I had to take pics because it was so pretty and pastel. I don't think I've ever said that about food, but it was! The bagel tasted nice and fresh with a nice light crispness to it. read more

Stopped by here for a pork roll egg and cheese on a whole wheat bagel. The sandwich was delicious! We will definitely be coming back here! Price for pork roll egg and cheese was 8.50 so a little expensive but worth it. Can't beat the location either! Perfect stop on your morning promenade walk. Highly recommend the whole wheat everything bagel! read more
