Review Summary

Bagel Etc is described as a nostalgic classic brunch spot with a warm, efficient staff, retro decor, and music that evokes a Montreal past. Reviews celebrate fresh, well executed staples like eggs Benedict on bagels, house made salsas, generous portions, and bagels that are always chewy and delicious. The coffee and orange juice are highlighted as freshly prepared, with quick service on weekend mornings and a lively atmosphere that makes it feel like a local ritual. Several comments praise the welcoming vibe and the sense of community, though a few note occasional service hiccups, potential extra charges, slow meals when busy, and questions about cleanliness or a wasp presence outside. Cash or debit are often preferred since credit cards may not always be accepted. Overall the place is seen as a beloved Montreal gem offering strong brunch, classic dishes, and a memorable vibe, with some caveats to consider.

Returning to an old huant after almost 40 yrs. Still has its charm & & awesome menu & staff. Stopped in for a midweek brunch as we'd been in town to see a show. The plateau & main are the same & yet different than I remember.
Bagel Ect, still a gem! They served up one of the best brunches we've had in Montreal. I ordered the classic Benedictine Eggs Benedict-perfectly poached eggs, rich & velvety hollandaise, all on a fresh, fluffy base. My partner had the Romanov, a version with lox, which was equally delicious-the smoked salmon was silky & flavorful without overpowering the dish. A special shoutout to their sautéed potatoes-crispy, well-seasoned, & the ideal companion to our meals. Cozy atmosphere, friendly service, & food done right. Forgot to mention, thier latte are perfect...Highly recommended!

Great Montreal bagels here! Service was good. Very contemporary place & not too expensive. Highly recommend. Multiple vegetarian options, but limited vegan options.
