50 Best Cafes near Sea Cliff

“Totally enjoyed everything about this place. Stopped in to take my little sister out for cheesecake, was nicely greeted and served. Cheesecake was amazing!! Chai tea also was wonderful. Can’t wait to come back and try more!“

“Expensive and Way overpriced. Tables could have been bigger. Is a cute friendly like atmosphere place. They did get us right away and the service was friendly. The waffle was pretty good with the cream cheese, whipped cream. It was satisfying. Coffee wasn’t bad but not great. Refreshers were just warm tea. Eclectic furniture and decorations. $1 for an egg and $3 for 4 strawberries that were cut so tiny, it would make you think there were more.“

“This place is straight out of a film! step inside and you’re transported. The ambiance is extraordinary, like a scene from a classic movie, with soft, cinematic background music that wraps around you like a warm hug. The staff are genuinely kind and attentive, and the host? An absolute gem—welcoming, warm, and makes you feel like a regular from day one.

What sets this place apart is how it feels ahead of its time while being steeped in history. Everywhere you look, there are stunning, authentic antiques—each piece telling a story. The attention to detail is top-notch, from the decor to the service to the perfectly crafted drinks and dishes.
I’ve never experienced a café this special. It’s not just a place to eat—it’s an experience. Can’t wait to come back.“

“In a quest to find “REAL “ whitefish salad, I followed a friend’s suggestion and tried Cafe 17A. Amazing! This past weekend I tried several other salads- Vegetable Tuna, Chicken Salad, Egg whites and spinach, Egg salad and mushrooms and of course sliced Nova and home made cream cheeses. My guests raved! Everything is fresh, and homemade with Love by Scott, the owner. Thanks Scott, - can’t wait to return- You’ve definitely nailed it“

“Went there for a coffee and a little treat with a friend. The two ladies behind the counter were very nice and helpful when asked about recommendations. I got a mini chocolate croissant and an iced dirty horchata with oat milk. It was nice to sit there and read a book while enjoying my delicious drink. They also have a little area in the corner for kids and Ilove how family friendly the place is. I saw a lot of individuals and families come through the doors and all left smiling. I will definitely come again when I’m in the area.“

“Best Marathon Station EVER!!!“

“Was there visiting from Ohio. Great coffee enjoyed sitting outside taking in the scenery.“

“The atmosphere at Cafe Deux is so lovely you feel right at home with the friendliness of the staff. They’re all wonderful!!!
The chicken sandwich lunch special at Cafe Deux is amazing. I ordered the sandwich twice this week on wednesday and again on friday as it was that good !!! The chicken sandwich has a slight spice flavor but not too spicy and the garlic aioli sauce was such a great pairing with the sandwich. I really hope the chicken sandwich transitions from being a lunch special to being part of the main menu at Cafe Deux :)
Definitely ask to try any of their mixed drinks especially the lavender martini which is a great drink for the summer :)“

“Mom and Sally are so nice. They have the best bubble tea that I’ve ever had. The melon is fantastic.“

“Some days you just want comfort without leaving home, and today Susan’s Kitchen was exactly what I needed. I ordered delivery, and they went above and beyond with every detail. The chocolate chip cookie with walnuts is the kind of treat that instantly lifts your mood, and the omelettes were perfectly prepared and so delicious. Their thoughtfulness really shines through, and I’m so grateful for the warmth they put into their food.“

“What an incredible place! I was in a pinch as I was planning on visiting my family for a few weeks in New York. My dates kept changing and the team went above and beyond to accommodate me and my evolving schedule. My daughter LOVED going to the camp. She came home with so many stories, they made food, craft and had fun! What a gem. We will be coming back when travel again to garden city“

“Fabulous healthy food. Kind staff. Definitely a favorite 👍🏻“

“The Polo Lounge is such a great place! We were celebrating our 1 year anniversary and another couple was celebrating their 50th anniversary! The food was delicious! The portions are appropriate so you're not totally full before your main course even comes. The atmosphere is a fun. There's a lounge singer and couples dancing. It was lovely to watch and we were sitting in our booth. There was a wedding going on, but it did not bother the restaurant at all. We will be back every year for our anniversary after bring married at Westbury Manor. The staff, the food, and the atmosphere will keep us coming back!“

“It was the first time having lunch at NM and it didn't disappoint . The bread and chicken broth was delicious that they served before our lunch came out. They were kind enough to split our Caesar salad and cheeseburger . Very nice presentation and the burger was cooked med rare to perfection . I would definitely come back and our waiter was great Ty“

“Would highly recommend this place! Everything from the carefully curated menu and the unique products on the shelf, to the interior design and color palette giving relaxed yet elevated vibes, to even the fragrant hand sanitizer were exceptionally amazing. The staff was very sweet and helpful. And the food was delicious, while the portion size was plentiful.“

“This is my favorite place on the island. They have amazing healthy food. I just asked Sean to cook up whatever he feels like making and it's always delicious. The vibe is really fun. Can't recommend it enough for people on the island who want healthy alternatives.“

“Kunst Coffee Haus is one of those cafés that feels like a hidden little sanctuary. The space is filled with greenery, flowers, and small artistic touches from lush plants to handmade crochet animals that give it a cozy, creative vibe. It’s the kind of place where you can sit back, relax, and just enjoy the atmosphere.

I ordered the Blue Ocean Latte, made with espresso, their homemade Blue Ocean syrup, and blue spirulina powder. Not only was it visually stunning, but the flavor was smooth, balanced, and had just the right touch of sweetness. Definitely a drink that stands out and feels unique compared to your usual latte.

The staff are friendly, and the overall atmosphere is both welcoming and inspiring. Between the floral arrangements, calming design, and the little details that make the space feel personal, Kunst Coffee Haus is more than just a coffee shop it’s a spot where you want to linger.

If you’re in the area, it’s worth a stop, whether you’re looking for a pretty latte, a peaceful work corner, or simply a beautiful place to chill. 🌿☕✨“

“our go-to for holidays, birthdays, and all celebrations. the rainbow cookies are a favorite, really everything they make is delicious.“

“todo muy rico y muy buena atencion“

“Great food and atmosphere.“

“Good Italian bake goods, gelato, and coffee.“

“I was spending a few hours with friends I had not spent time with in person for several years. At one point, one in our party wanted coffee, so we decided to look around for a place for coffee, and found Cafe Nico's. The cappuccino was delicious, and I also had a flaky pastry filled with a vanilla custard sauce. Since the cafe is Italian, I cannot refer to it as a croissant. This is one of the few places that is cash only. I look forward to returning, the first chance I can.“

“My second time here, I loved the açaí bowl the first time, overpriced but make sense , it’s delicious and fresh ingredients, so it’s worthy, however the experience I had this morning with the lady in the front was horrible, 0 professional and tbh I wouldn’t go back to be treated like that. But oh boy, the coconut bowl it’s so good.“

“La comida 🍱 es deliciosa 😋 Súper recomendado para todos los latinos …“

“Love this place! This is my go-to spot for lunch with friends and family. I highly recommend the grilled peach ricotta toast, the hot honey chicken sandwich, the everything pigs in a blanket, the crispy brussels sprouts and any of the smoothies. YUM!

The moss wall art is STUNNING!

Staff is very friendly.

The whole restaurant and bar area is really beautiful. Wish they’d bring back dinner and happy hour so I could go more often with my husband and daughter. But happy to continue to visit for lunch until then :)“

“Thank you, Nana's Westbury !!!“

“Bought Chicken Tikka masala, palak paneer and Gobi aloo with lacha parathas. The food was utterly delicious. Sonia and her Chef outdid themselves. It is a must go to place. You are missing something if you haven’t had Food from Badshah’s Cafe.“
