Bagel Etc. est largement reconnu comme une institution montréalaise incontournable pour le petit-déjeuner et le brunch, apprécié pour son atmosphère rétro de type diner et ses liens profonds avec l'histoire culturelle de la ville.

My girlfriend & I came here on our last morning in Montreal. It was my first time at Bagel etc & I can't wait to come back.
I had the bagel, lox & cream cheese, with home fries & it excellent!
The place has a very cool decor & the staff are friendly & excellent.
Timeless ambiance. The décor is one-of-a-kind, & the music harks back to an older era & a Montreal of years gone by (think Leonard Cohen, John Little paintings, Roch Carrier, etc.). The staff is amazingly friendly. The two salsas are homemade & uniquely flavorful. The meals are scrumptious (go for the Gershwin!!). The orange juice is made on the spot, & the coffee is uniquely delicious!
Nice atmosphere with interesting decor. Not so much polite service. They double charged. The food was OK, but considering all great eateries in Montreal, it was average.

A perfect breakfast & brunch spot. Great decor & lighting, it felt cozy the second I walked in. Fantastic music. Service was sweet & efficient. Just felt like one of those institutions where the servers & the patrons alike respect the place.
Probably best eggs Benedict I've had in my whole life. Just *perfect* Hollandaise sauce. They know what they're doing here. Worth a visit when you're in MTL & wanna be treated well.
Cool spot for breakfast. We arrived before the morning rush & enjoyed our little booth seating! While I'm not crazy about their breakfast potatoes, everything else was quite good! The decor is really the high point here; so many beautiful things to look at from artwork to old prints to ornate lamps ✨
Been going here since the 80's. Love their burgers but today had the club sandwich. Service was excellent & the decor brings you back to a bygone era. The club was tasty & would recommend as was the Salad Nicoise. The tuna was excellent. Only disadvantage was the line up to pay at the cash, Extremely inconvenient & not fun making customers wait so long. Recommended.
In the continuation of my ambitious quest to try every reputed breakfast spot in Montreal - I come to Bagels ETC in the Plateau. This restaurant is open later than other brunch restaurants which is great for the late-risers. Lineups don't seem as bad here. The prices are alright. Food was generally good, some items better than others. The service deserves major credit, they are very friendly & personable. I complimented their stylish menu & the server introduced me to the guy that designed it so I could praise his work which was a warm gesture. The décor is definitely interesting, the large golden egg was what really got my attention. Quirky place that may not have top tier food but thoroughly checks off all the other boxes.
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Bagel etc, & it was an experience to remember! From the moment I walked in, I was transported back to the vibrant 80s with the retro decor & nostalgic tunes playing in the background. The atmosphere was electric, & I couldn't help but smile. The service was incredibly fast without compromising on quality. My food arrived promptly, & I was genuinely impressed by how quickly the staff managed to serve a bustling restaurant. Speaking of the staff, they were the epitome of politeness & professionalism. Every interaction was warm & welcoming, making me feel like a valued guest. & then there was the food-absolutely delicious! Each dish was bursting with flavor & prepared to perfection. It's clear that a lot of love & skill goes into every meal. Whether you're a fan of classic comfort foods or looking to try something new, Bagel etc has something to tantalize every palate.
