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.

Food was basic, but the atmosphere is where it's at. The feeling in there is vintage that takes you back to an old fashioned diner. One downside is cash or Canada debit only. If we wanted to use American dollars, it was the same dollar price as the Canadian, no exchange on it. We paid via cash using their ATM. Lines were long but it was good enough for a breakfast.

Everything is awesome. Simon is a perfect chef. If you are not familiar with the foods, ask him for a recommendation.

Toujours un incontournable des restaurants déjeuner de Montréal ! Spécialement pour les oeufs «bénédictines » & surtout pour la crème fraîche & onctueuse qui nappe les dits oeufs !

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?

Stick to the classics & you will have an enjoyable meal. Disappointed with the mushroom blintzes. They were more like mashed potato blintzes with a couple mushroom flecks.

Restaurant au coeur du quartier portugais de Montréal, proche plateau, sur le boulevard très animé Saint Laurent. Déco rétro qui donne le ton, spécialité de bagels. Service agréable & rapide, bonne cuisine pour manger un repas typique Montréalais.
