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.

The food was yummy!! I really liked the pancakes.
For my traveler fellows, keep in mind that just accept cash or Canadian debit card. I don't understand why, specially in a city that welcomes many foreigners visitors.

The service was pleasant, the food mediocre, not the best bagel, cold potatoes. Then I went to pay with a Canadian Revolut card that I have been successfully using for 3 days in every establishment I have visited. Here it doesn't work, neither does an EU debit, & it just so happens they have an ATM in the café where I was charged 3.49 transaction on 20 dollars. I don't appreciate being so blatantly ripped off.
