About

Bagel Etc produces iconic Montreal style bagels characterized by a distinctively chewy interior and a golden, blistered crust achieved through traditional wood fired baking techniques. These hand rolled rings are boiled in honey water to ensure the signature flavor profile that defines the local culinary identity. Beyond the classic sesame and poppy seed varieties, the establishment offers a diverse selection of hearty sandwiches featuring premium meats, cheeses, and fresh vegetables layered upon these dense, malted carriers. The interior environment emphasizes a functional and straightforward aesthetic that prioritizes the rapid delivery of high quality baked goods for patrons. Strict adherence to long standing artisanal methods maintains the specific textural integrity required for an authentic product. Patrons encounter a specialized menu focused on the fundamental elements of yeast dough preparation and savory protein pairings.

Review Summary

Bagel Etc. is widely regarded as a quintessential Montreal breakfast and brunch institution, celebrated for its nostalgic, vintage diner atmosphere and deep roots in the city's cultural history. Many patrons praise the restaurant for its friendly staff, efficient service, and flavorful menu, particularly the signature eggs Benedict served on fresh bagels and the well-seasoned breakfast potatoes. While the majority of guests enjoy the cozy, jazz-filled environment and consistent quality of the food, some visitors have noted occasional inconsistencies in service speed, food preparation, or pricing clarity. Despite mixed reviews regarding value and specific dish execution, the restaurant remains a beloved local gem that successfully blends a welcoming community feel with classic, comfort-focused meals.

Great brunch spot in the plateau. Has an old school diner vibe, with an open kitchen. Went with friends who had a classic breakfast plate, eggs Benedict on bagel. Portions were quite large & everything was delicious. Ordered a large latte & it was humongous! Be forewarned it's not a regular cafe large size. I will say the staff were very friendly, but a bit short on the Sunday we were there. Arrived at 11, waiting about 5-10 minutes for a table. It took a while to take our orders, but the food arrived hot. Will go back for sure, but will go earlier :)

Ambiance relax qui a son charme, mais service peu présent & lorsqu'il y en a, ça manque beaucoup de sourires. On a l'impression d'être de trop comme client. Dommage.

Un must de la rue St-Laurent pour un déjeuner traditionnel. L'endroit est vintage magnifique & le service est toujours courtois.

Really cool looking place with great breakfast options & delicious bagel sandwiches. Service was super friendly, staff is efficient & kind. Nice little place to come with friends &/or family & won't hurt the wallet.

This restaurant has a great reputation but it seems they are resting on their laurels. The decor is vintage which is another way of saying that maintenance can be ignored & there is no need for anything modern, like wifi & credit card payments. The food is just ok. The best part is they use Fairmont Bagels, which are scrumptious, but the rest was otherwise ordinary.
