Fairmount Bagel Bakery is widely celebrated as a Montreal staple with fresh, chewy bagels in a variety of flavors like sesame, everything, onion and the playful Bozo, described by many as the best in town or even in the world. The scene is lively with lines that move quickly and a visible craft of bagel making in wood fired ovens, and many reviews note the option to take bagels to the cafe across the street to make sandwiches, though some visits mention miscommunication about sandwiches and payment issues such as cash only or limits on non-Canadian cards. The bagels are consistently praised for aroma and quality, and staff are frequently described as friendly, but a few critiques cite high prices, crowded conditions or an uneven service.View restaurant profile
