A True Montreal Gem Frozen in Time
This place is a beautifully preserved time capsule, radiating the nostalgic charm & authenticity of a classic 1940s bar & restaurant. The moment you walk in, you're greeted by the sounds, scents, & atmosphere of another era - like stepping through a time portal right in the heart of the ever-evolving Plateau.
It's so vivid, you can almost imagine the faint trace of smoky cigars lingering from a bygone time, before smoking was banned indoors - a sensory whisper of the past that deepens the nostalgic feel.
The owners & staff deserve full credit for their warm hospitality & welcoming energy. While the entire menu is solid - everything is well-prepared & satisfying - it's the vibe that truly makes this spot unforgettable. You're not just coming for a meal; you're here for a nostalgic experience.
By pure luck, I stumbled across this gem on one of my early morning walks while searching for a good coffee spot. I'm so glad I did. They open at 7:30 AM daily - perfect for fellow early risers looking for more than just a caffeine fix. 🫶🏻🌞

Food was good, service was below average, but the coffee...it was so weak we thought we had been served tea. Once we were finally able to get the attention of the elusive waitress, she served us another coffee...only slightly less weak.View more

Excellent food, service, & ambiance. I have to add that they serve the best coffee in Montreal. Most coffee here is too bitter for me. I'm an Italian & I feel like I know my coffee.View more

We stopped by here just to get a coffee. Very nice people. This is where Leonard Cohen used to hang out, & that red stool is where he used to sit. When they renovated the place, they kept the stool.View more

THE BEST BREAKFAST IN MONTREAL. I mean that. Been coming to bagel for more than 5 years - it consistently delivers amazing food, coffee & service. Authentic staff, beautiful ambience & genuine vibes. A must if you're in the city & wake up craving a delicious, hearty meal 💯View more

Nice atmosphere in a cool looking spot. Coffee was not very good. Food was decent but nothing special.View more

Visited Bagel Etc on Saint Laurent Street on a Saturday. The crowded ambiance & constant noise detracted from the experience. Despite a diverse menu, the food was ordinary, lacking any standout flavors. The coffee, unfortunately, didn't leave a lasting impression. Overall, an average brunch spot with room for improvement.View more

Went in to have a light meal & coffee but the prices were insane. A plain bagel is $3-4 but if you want to add cream cheese it's an extra $3 for that? We were sat in this cute window seat which was fine but the neon sign that's directly beside you, is soo loud & distracting. The coffee was nothing special, & I was extremely disappointed that a cafe didn't have any Wi-Fi?View more

Coffee taste like water. Food was ok. Service was quick but then again potatoes were still cold & onions half cooked. Would not return.View more

The best brunch for a post-celebratory evening. Simon, our short-order cook, starts our brekkie as soon as he sees us walk in the door. We go for the hardcore breakfast: two overeasy eggs, bacon, Knackwürst sausage, dijon, authentic Montreal bagel, crwam cheese, hash browns & coffee "à volonté" with fresh squeezed OJ. with taxes & tip, a couplw eats for about $25. Satiated!!!
