A very lovely cafe with lovely owners. Coffee is delicious and breakfast toasts are yummy. Chocolate muffin is so good. Nice rustic marine/beach decor( it needs a bit tidying up, and it will be fantastic.)

Local, chill vibes…my Americano was great! The pastries we tried were amazing…the cheddar scallion scone was so buttery and rich and soft, I had it warm with butter and it was my favorite part of my breakfast…also tried the chilli cheese danish which had a flaky croissant like texture, a hint of spice and it was really delicious served warm. Service was great. Great value, it was $15 for breakfast for two (2 espresso beverages & 2 pastries which we split) which is almost unheard of nowadays!! Also loved that the restaurant has a free library where you can bring a book/take a book, what a great idea!

City Island is like a small town and this is the small town coffee shop. Great coffee, reasonable prices, a variety of snacks and simple choices, and a nice relaxing atmosphere! Try it.
Parking: If not in front , just go around the block.

Clippers coffee is a delight! A true gem of the Bronx and of City Island. All the staff there are super friendly, and their menu items are wonderful! If you go try their jumbo chocolate chip cookie, there are very few cookies that can beat it!

Discovered this place while coming back from a heavy fish fry meal and needed a caffine kick for the drive. Nautical themed place. Coffee is really really good. I always get the choco chip cookies for the kids and they love it too.Sometimes we make a detour here just for the coffee.The only negative i can think of is sometimes the lid pops open.
The coffee at Clipper Coffee is very, very good. The coffee shop is located in City Island on the main drag. Clipper Coffee provides people with a cozy environment to relax and have coffee or tea.What is good is the coffee. I had an Americano, which had a smooth and pleasant flavor. They have a small used book area with books that looked like they were worth reading. I also saw a chess set and a few other board games.What is not so good is that the place looks like it is not cleaned very often, certainly not at a regular interval as it should be on a daily basis. Surfaces needed to be wiped down. The floor needed sweeping. I saw cinnamon spilled in the front condiment area. There were a lot of crumbs in the display case where the bread was showcased. There is a sofa that is so worn-out-looking that it needs to be replaced.Despite that, it is a great place to enjoy coffee. I plan to go back.
