Review Summary

La Fabrique de Bagel Montréal is described in reviews as offering fresh, flavorful Montreal style bagels with a wide variety of toppings, where smoked salmon and cream cheese combinations and custom builds like salmon with Brie or turkey chipotle earn frequent praise and generous portions with balanced flavors. Staff are consistently noted as friendly and attentive, contributing to a welcoming atmosphere even when the place is busy. Some concerns recur, including declines in coffee quality such as cappuccino being overly foamy and Americano not meeting expectations on certain visits, and some readers feel the prices are high for the portion size. There are occasional inconsistencies in quality and service, including an off day with a burnt bagel, delays when ordering via apps, and moments of miscommunication during peak times.

Snacks & Treats

Review Summary

3 Minots is described as a karaoke hotspot with a buzzing crowd and a vibe that many reviews call fun and immersive, where the owner performing multiple roles behind the scenes adds to the spectacle for some even as it can feel chaotic for others. The atmosphere is often hot inside, and drinks can be pricey; paying to sing is sometimes cash only, which some patrons find odd. Service is frequently noted as slow, with reports of discriminatory treatment and rules that can make the experience feel uneven depending on how quickly guests drink or how the songs are handled. The entertainment and crowd energy can offset the drawbacks for karaoke lovers, and several patrons mention memorable moments, including the barmaid and standout sake bomb moments that helped make a birthday night special. However, some critics describe abrupt song transitions, loud tambourine playing, and long waits between songs that disrupt timing, and a few note that the pitchers and overall costs can be steep. Overall, 3 Minots delivers a high energy karaoke night that many find addictive and worth returning to, even as price, service consistency, and cleanliness concerns influence the overall impression.View restaurant profile

Review Summary

Reviews for Janick consistently praise the terrace for its stunning view of the Richelieu River and Mont Saint-Hilaire, making the location feel special and ideal for a summer evening by the water, with many noting the ambiance as a major draw and the terrace accessibility on sunny days, though not always suitable for wheelchair users.

The place is described as busy and popular, sometimes leading to queues and wait times, while other visits are marked by quick, friendly service during off-peak hours. Value and price are debated, with some seeing the experience as worth the cost for the view and overall quality, and others calling it expensive for what is received. Overall, Janick emerges as a standout for scenery and atmosphere with strong drinks and memorable evenings, yet with variability in kitchen execution and service that depends on the day.View restaurant profile

Dic Ann's Hamburgers

Burgers Poutine Comfort Food

Review Summary

Overall, reviews of Dic Ann's Hamburgers praise the burgers as delicious and true to the classic recipe with their signature sauce, though some orders arrive pink and could be cooked longer. Fries are generally good and the poutine is acceptable, but the sauce can be too runny and the cheese for the poutine is not always what some expect. Cleanliness and friendliness of staff are frequently noted, with customers traveling from afar for the classic experience. The atmosphere is pleasant but some feel a bit less convivial than at other locations, and the space next to the cinema can feel chilly in winter. Prices are sometimes seen as high, but many feel the quality and speed justify it, while others call for more consistency in service and portions. Suggestions include offering real poutine cheese and thicker gravy and avoiding explanations for small water requests, as the service can be slow at times but others report fast delivery when busy. Overall the sentiment is positive, centered on tasty burgers and the sauce, with room for improvement in cooking consistency, temperature, and value.View restaurant profile
