    Nova Lox bagel sandwich

    Best Nova Lox bagel sandwich on the island. Perfection. Served open faced, big enough two, fresh and delicious. Definitely a favorite. Just get there early before the sell out of the sesame bagels!

    What a cute little bagel shop! Breakfast sandwiches, bagels and wraps for lunch with a nice seating area inside. Fast service and the cold brew is absolutely delicious.

    More like bread and not really a bagel

    Overpriced "bagels" and always super busy. If you want to skip the line, you can order o line but there is a convenience fee. The staff does seem nice but the bagels aren't really bagels in my opinion: the texture is more like a role with a hole in it. I went here thinking I'd get a cheap and easy breakfast but 2 coffees, 2 breakfast sandwiches and a muffin was $45 and took 15 minutes in line to order and then another 20 minutes for the food to come out. Cut tables outside but the price to me wasn't worth it: my husband did enjoy his bagel sandwich but he's from cali so he doesn't know what a real bagel should taste like.

    I just got a breakfast sandwich (sausage eggs and cheese on plain bagel) here and it was so delicious. This isn't your average breakfast sandwich, it was stacked with meat and eggs, the cheese was melted too. The staff greets you and are accommodating to your order. My wife loves their bagels (chocolate chip) and cream cheese. We get extra bagels to take home. This place makes surf bagels look like amateurs (which they are from previous review) the bagels are made fresh and very flavorful.

    Bagel time is a must stop when in wildwood! My family and I make it a point to come back every time we're in the area. Their bagels are fresh and amazing, with a great variety of cream cheese!

    If you're looking for breakfast or brunch in Wildwood, I would definitely try this place out! PARKING There is a small free parking lot next to Bagel Time Cafe, and by small I mean TINY. People park over the lines and have nasty things to say under their breath despite the fact others need to park and eat just as much as them! My friend managed to fit despite the fact people want to be rude. MENU So much to choose from! So many options. You can either order in person to go, order in person to sit down, or order online for pick up. They also make it VERY easy to pick up your order if you ordered it online. It was its own pick up window once inside the establishment! FOOD I had bought myself a spinach feta omelet & a water. I honestly should have gone for a bagel, especially a rainbow bagel. But they brought that out after I had already ordered and the line was insane! I had no idea that was even an option! Next time I'm definitely ordering online for pick up instead so I can really see the depth of their menu selection! With that being said, their omelet was a letdown! And I didn't touch the hashbrowns because I'm not a hashbrown person. It never sits well with me, no matter who makes them, I wish they had asked me if I wanted that or not. I would have opted for a different side if they had one. I did get toast with my omelet and that was burnt, but generally it was still delicious. I honestly wish I got one of their caffeinated drinks. I'm not a coffee drinker by nature at all, but I would have loved to try out something of theirs! I had gotten some gnarly sunburn the day before, so I just wanted water to hydrate. I don't come back to Wildwood often if ever, so I don't know when the next time I stop by would be. But I really do wish I had gotten a bagel instead. The reason I didn't was because I had one the day prior, from elsewhere, and I wasn't in the mood for another bagel. It was nice having other options on the menu besides bagels, but it doesn't seem like its their specialty. ATMOSPHERE This place is so cozy and has many seats! Most people are ordering to go, and there was a line to get in so I would suggest ordering online instead. But generally the line moves quickly. OVERALL Such a lovely place within Wildwood NJ! I definitely loved trying it out, and would love to come back to try out more if I'm in the area. Everything was so cute, so I definitely would like to come back and actually have a sit down.

    WILDWOOD: one morning we were trying to find a place to eat breakfast and had a few restaurants in mind through prior research, but even though they were supposed to be open, they ended up being closed. As we were driving down Atlantic Ave., the sign of Bagel Time-Cafe caught our eye and we hoped for the best. Let us tell you, we found a gem of a place! It was meant to be! They have an adorable space that has a lot of seating for a bagel shop. Leashed and friendly dogs are allowed inside their cozy interior with fun decor and also outside on their patio with a pretty cool old Volkswagen Beetle for a great selfie spot. 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. Paired with a hot chai latte with plant-based milk = dream come true! They also offer catering and the staff is top notch! It was so delicious and hit the spot; a perfect meal and experience to start the day. They also have locations in Wildwood Crest and Cape May!

    Every time I visit Jersey I make it a point to get my pork roll fix in. I was sad that a salt bagel wasn't offered but had never had an egg everything and I wasn't disappointed. I loved how they made it with scrambled eggs. Very filling! We sat outside because we had our furry child with us. One of the employees brought out a bowl of water after seeing him which was adorably considerate. The coffee was fresh too!

    Love Bagel Time! The South Beach Bowl was amazing with great presentation ! The bacon egg & cheese and avocado toast were both excellent. We also enjoyed some iced coffees! It's a great family owned spots with two locations. The wildwood spot has great customer service and plenty of seating inside and out!

    ample seating

    this is a terrible bagel shop. it's honestly embarrassing if you've ever been to any other bagel shop in NJ. These aren't the same. you can actually tell by looking at my photo, this doesn't look like a good bagel. it's a weirdly dense roll is what it is. also, there was a foreign object in my bagel, not sure what it was and neither was the staff. I asked them what it was and he said "I don't know... its definitely not supposed to be there.... do you want another bagel?" to which I said sure. don't know why I even said yes but yeah I'll never be back here. oh and also it was like 11am and we had to wait like 10 minutes for them to make coffee. they don't stay on top of the coffee area.

    View of outdoor seating from inside. Very cute out there. Kids were running around and checking out the old beetle car.
    Lala G.

    Exactly what we were looking for with out searching. We also had one hot coffee and one iced americano. They had all the fancy syrups half & half, sugar & whatever else you needed on a counter for your beverages. Really liked it here. Will go back. Love a good jersey bagel.

    Pros - indoor and outdoor seating - outdoor seating is beautiful - They have a DJ on the weekend. - the bagels are amazing. Not too bready and perfectly cooked and we love the bagel sandwiches. Egg, cheese, bacon. Delicious. - service was quick -Short walk off the boardwalk Cons: - Can be a long wait on the weekends - Iced coffee was watered down - Can be pricey, but totally worth it We loved it so much we went multiple days in a row!

    I love a good bagel so I had to go back. The staff was really nice and the bagels tasty. Not a fan of the home fries (I like whole potatoes) but they had a good taste. Portion was huge. I'll be back

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.

The coffee was extremely disappointing. It tasted like someone rinsed out the coffee pot and poured that into my cup. The latte wasn't much better, an easy way to put it would be watered down milk. The sandwich was also disappointing. While the price was reasonable, the preparation was careless. The egg and cheese sandwich consisted of a little more than a slice of American cheese placed on the bread. They didn't event take the time to melt it. For a cafe with such a strong reputation, I expected much better, and I probably could've gotten better at a local gas station. Overall, while I appreciated the good customer service, the food and beverages fell far below expectations. Based on my experience, I would not recommend this place.

Somewhat limited non-caffeine options, but not none. The smoothies do not come with milk, they are just syrup and ice blended up. Most of the staff are quite nice. The cashier was unhelpful when I had an issue with my drink, but it was resolved by the manager swiftly and without complaint. Considering the possibility of rotating staff (and the cashiers young age) I'd say such an experience does not look poorly upon the establishment. Rather, the way management handled the issue looks favorably on them. We did not get ice cream so I cannot comment on it. It was expensive, and perhaps overpriced. However, this is wildwood in the summer, so everything is expensive. For those curious, I got the 4 Berry smoothie, which I was expecting to contain fruit and a dairy product. Instead it was ice and syrup. I tried to reach a resolution with the cashier by explaining the issue and asking for an alternative drink. The cashier declined and said I'd have to purchase a replacement. I stepped aside so I wouldn't hinder other customers and asked another staff member if a manager was present. They were, and when I explained my issue and we reached a resolution where part of my drink would be poured out and replaced by milk (I honestly didn't want to chance a different drink). By replacing 1/4 of the drink with milk, it improved the drink tremendously. The management also offered to make a new drink if I didn't like it, but I did so all is well. Overall: good experience, excellent food, great coffee, decent non-coffee options, possibly overpriced.

It was Turkey, bacon & avocado. It was available on sourdough or multigrain with mayo or mustard. I love that options are offered not only because I have bread & condiment preferences but because you know it's being made fresh! The sandwich was delicious! The bread was bakery quality & all was beyond fresh & tasty.
