Island Bagel & Deli is at 841 William Hilton Parkway, in a plaza with outdoor tables under umbrellas. It is the island's New York-style bagel shop, with a deli counter for lunch. The bagels are made from scratch and boiled daily, and there is a second shop in Bluffton.

What to Order at Island Bagel

The bagel case has sixteen flavors and the shop makes twelve flavors of cream cheese. Breakfast sandwiches use bacon, Applewood-smoked ham, sausage or Nova salmon, and the Low Country sandwich pairs meat and egg with cheese on a bagel. At lunch the deli builds hoagies with roast beef, ham, pastrami, chicken and hand-shredded turkey the kitchen roasts itself, and reviewers rate the Reuben. Cinnamon rolls are worth grabbing if you have a sweet tooth. The menu button above opens the full list.

Hours, Lines and Seating

Island Bagel is open every day from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. There is usually a line in the morning, but it moves fast, and most reviewers are in and out in ten minutes or less. Peak season can stretch the wait. There are a few tables inside, and outdoor tables where one guest brought their dogs. Call (843) 686-3353 with questions. More places to eat are on the Hilton Head restaurants page, and the Hilton Head dining guide sorts them by meal and style.
