Clifton Bagel & Pizza

Excellent bagels, great sandwiches and drink selection :) I eat here lots ands the staff is really friendly and helpful too

Love this place! Came in for lunch with my mom and noticed a sign with the specials of the day ($ 5.99+tax). When we approached the counter we were greeted by the very friendly and professional owners. They took our order and told us to have a seat. A few minutes later the owner brought our wraps out. AH-​MAY-​ZING! Would definitely recommend

Bagels that could go toe-​to-​toe with any in the tri-​state, pizza, questionable frozen yogurt, creepy middle aged Italian management (the type that look like they have a sports car, a «guy» for blow, and the tendency to frequent teen clubs down the shore), and what some might consider beautiful but underage women… This place has everything. Especially pride in their chicken salad.

Stopped in to try the bagels, and to my delight, felt like I was treated like family. Customer service was great and the everything bagels are awesome. Had my bagel with fresh sliced Lox, tomatoes and onions. Hard to find a bagel shop that uses fresh sliced compared to pre-​slice Lox. Recommend u stop in and try it out!!!

Not too bad for a bagel place. Need to add lox spread to menu and update prices. Lots of seating. Feels almost too big and I wonder if mixing bagels, pizza and frozen yogurt is wise. Most great destinations for these foods focus all their energy on one.

Sign on door says «Open 6am-​10pm, Mon-​Sun.» Stopped by at 7:30 on a Friday evening and was told that they were already closed for the day. No bagel, pizza, or pizza bagel for me.

Bad service the food was cold with no customers ahead of me. I waited 25 minutes for a slice of pizza. Employees were rude and didnt even apologize for forgetting the one customer in the restaurant. The lady who left before I ordered had a bad experience, I guess I should have left then but I had already paid. Never again will i give my money to this dump.

Ok so out of curiosity my girl and I stopped in!!! Yeah we are very happy we did!!! I ordered a bacon egg and cheese on a roll with lettuce and tomatoes ketchup and mayo. I was blown away!!! The bacon was well done but not burned or hard. They cooked the eggs to perfection!!! The staff were so nice and welcoming!!! I even found myself talking to other customers that how homie I felt. Def coming back and I have to try the pizza for sure next time!!! And they have tvs with football on!!! So glad we decided to stop in!!!

Delivery takes too long. It takes forever for them to make the food. Customer service could be better. The girl that did the delivery was very nice however.

The food is decent enough. My biggest issue with this place is the customer service. Whenever my boyfriend and I order delivery, it always take longer than estimated. That could be tolerable, except that nearly every time we order, something from our order is missing. We decided it’s not worth the convenience to order from a place so close to home if we are always disappointed. We decided today will be the last time we use this restaurant.

Went there a few times with my bf to grab breakfast. I went there today to get him lunch while he was working. I asked for an Italian bagel sandwich on a sesame bagel, which they had none left, I then asked for a plain bagel, none of those left either. Okay I get it you ran out. I went over to grab a sugar free red bull and out of habit I checked the date on the bottom it said 7−7−14. I know nothing about red bull and asked the girl at the counter if that was an expiration date or what? She asked her boss and he said «no that’s the date it was made!» I had no idea so I bought it only to later Google and find out he was lying. Sorry that’s a huge turn off! If you’re lying about red bull expiration dates to sell them what other expiration dates are you lying about?

Place is ok. The folks working there are nice, but it takes them foreverrrr to make your food. Every time I’ve ordered breakfast sandwiches I’ve had to wait over 10
minutes for them… and it wasn’t even busy. Also they are a little stingy with the fillings. Food is fine, nothing special for the price.

I think this place is OK. I figured I found a decent breakfast takeout spot for those bagel craving days. I have mixed reviews because I really think it depends on the day that you go and what you order. My boyfriend always orders the sausage (or Taylor ham) with egg & cheese on an everything bagel and he loves it. For the first two times I’ve gone there I have ordered the cinnamon raisin bagel with cream cheese and jelly and the egg and cheese on a wheat bagel and both were delicious, but then I started to eat healthy and decided to order the egg white and cheese on wheat sliced bread and it was just OK. The service is pretty good. They messed up my order once but they didn’t hesitate to fix it (they forgot to put the cheese on my egg & cheese sandwich).
Bottom line:
It’s a regular bagel place.

Stopped here because they had a huge sign in the window advertising their new frozen yogurt. When I went in, the guy told me there wasn’t any frozen yogurt– weird and basically false advertising! I got a few bagels to take home and a tub of the plain cream cheese they make in-​house. Both were good and the guy gave me more cream cheese than I paid for (his mistake) and didn’t make me pay extra for it. I haven’t been in there again though and as other reviewers have said, there is never anyone eating in here.

My order is always simple yet they are able to mess it up time after time. Pizza always looks so old and dry. I wouldn’t eat here again.

Clean place great pizza and hot sandwich are great too they sale coffee, ice cream, bagel, frozen yogurt, breakfast and a lot more thing

Shouldn’t have to wait a hour and a half for a pizza pie. Today is March 24^th — not Super Bowl Sunday, Football Sunday, Fight Night, or even a busy weekend where people are ordering out. I’m an office manager at business here in Clifton, NJ and a coworker of mine ordered pizzas for a quick informal business lunch with a customer of ours. While it was laid back, leaving a hungry customer to wait an hour and a half is ridiculous. The delivery guy showed up and was extremely rude, and my coworker said I’m sorry I’d tip you but you are an hour and a half late. As the delivery guy walked out he scowled at me (as if I placed the order or paid him) and called my coworker an a**hole.
Super unprofessional… and the food wasn’t even that great. Thanks but no thanks… my company can find better food elsewhere.

Order a Italian sub there was 4 slices of ham 3 slices of salami and 4 slices of cheese I paid $ 10.70 for that and a Arizona iced tea. what a huge rip-​off. I’ll never go back.

My bf was craving pizza that night and I figured why not here! Big mistake! Did not check the review, did a sharp turn into the parking lot because I happened to see it on my way home from grocery shopping.
First of all, the place was HUGE for dine-​in but it was completely empty! I should have took it as a sign but I am not the kinda person to walk out when I’m inside already.
Next, the service was not great. I put in my order only to find out 5 mins later that they did not have what I ordered. It was about 7pm at night. So I got the normal cheese and pepperoni. Again, I was the only one in the restaurant but 15 – 20 mins into making my food the guy asked me what I ordered and if I paid (?) idk how they could have got it mixed up or confused with anyone else since I was the only one there!
Then I got home, when I opened the box I was shocked. They pepperoni was dry and dark-​colored and the pizza was greasier than my face after not washing for 3 days straight. God, I have never seen anything like it. It tasted so bland and greasy and just not fresh. I think frozen pizza from the grocery store taste better than what I got from them.
Do NOT recommend!!!

Ever since I saw the sign put up, I couldn’t wait to try a place called Bagel Pizza. Imagine a place dedicated to making personal size pizza bagels with your choice of toppings. Hell. How about a 14″ bagel pizza?
Well, disappointed I am since finding out this HUGE deli is called Clifton Bagel AND Pizza. Located in what used to be a Pizza Hut, major renovations were done to turn this place into a bagel and deli, which happens to serve pizza. There’s not much really to connect the two. However, they do offer two breakfast pizzas:
1. egg, bacon, ham, sausage, riccota and cheddar
2. Taylor Ham, sunny side up eggs, American and mozzarella
I must say, though, the pizza is certainly not this establishment’s strong point. It’s a bit on the flimsy side and its flavors were lacking. Way too much crust at the end, bubbles in the dough and barely any tomato sauce. And when I came in for lunch, there was no display showing at least 4 different pies to choose from, something I look forward to when I crave pizza for lunch.
The bagel and deli part is not much different than ones you’ll find around Clifton and Bloomfield. They’ll be hard pressed to take away established place who’ve earned the loyalty of their customers, especially since bagel & delis are favored mostly by creatures of habit.
What it lacks in creativity, it certainly makes up in volume. 6+ refrigerators for drinks, a huge coffee station, huge open kitchen, plenty of seating, huge menu. It’s certainly a sight when walking in, especially for the first time.
Last, but certainly not least, its location. Located right at the Route 3 onramp, this place is an ambitious attempt to take advantage of the commuter crowd. People will have to overcome heavy traffic in this area — probably the main reason for the previous establishment’s, Pizza Hut’s, failure.
Update: I like the bagel here. They’re quite plump. Some are almost completely round. They’re more of a fluffy bagel on the inside, so fans of the chewier bagel may not like it as much.
The coffee isn’t good though. Quite bitter, lacking depth.
