Reviews describe Bagel St-Lo as a beloved neighborhood spot with homemade bagels, strong coffee, and a warm vintage vibe that feels welcoming to families and regulars; the Verdun location is often highlighted for brunch and casual meals. The bagels are praised for freshness, variety, quality ingredients, and textures, with notes on sesame and poppy seeds and flavorful cream cheeses or spreads; many say the bagels taste exceptional and that meals on site or to go are convenient. The staff are repeatedly described as friendly, attentive, and genuine, with many customers feeling remembered and well cared for even during busy periods, and the atmosphere is consistently described as cozy, charming, and sometimes lively with artful decor and a terrace. Beyond bagels, soups, salads, and brunch items are well received and considered good value, though a few reviews mention portions can be modest or substitutions pricey. Parking can be tricky due to street layout and bike lanes, but nearby streets offer easier options. Some comments caution that vegan or gluten free bagels may resemble flatbread rather than true bagels, and a small number note occasional inconsistency in bagel size or quality during busier times.
Bagels made in house. Best option if you're too far from le plateau to get st viateur. They have sandwiches & a great eggs Benny! Drip coffee is serve yourself but very good. Lovely terrasse in the summer. Busy but good service. One of the best breakfast options in verdun.
Really enjoyed breakfast here the other day. It's clearly a well loved establishment, you can tell by how busy it is, but the service was quick & friendly & the food, delicious! I'll definitely be back.

I love this spot! I bring all my friends & loved ones here for brunch. Their business model is great! You order & pay, then you are served at your table within like 5-10 minutes (very impressive). The self serve coffee means you can help yourself whenever you want & you get to choose a cute mug from their wide selection. They also offer many dairy alternatives (you just have to ask for it at the counter). Their daily soup is always vegan & never fails to delight. They have gluten free bagels available. Their hollandaise sauce is to die for! Their fruits that come with the breakfast plates are always perfectly ripe! No server rushes you to leave or makes you feel pressured in any way. I've been able to sit here for quite some time just chatting away with loved ones. The decor is great, their music is varied, & the staff are super friendly 😊 They're always busy, but I've never had to wait longer than 30 minutes to be seated even with a large group, & they let you enjoy coffee while you wait. I recommend this spot to anyone who loves bagels & is a fan of excellent food 👌
Bel endroit, pour arrêter prendre un café, par contre je n'ai pas gouté à leur bagel, mais je vais y revenir. Personnel sympathique, bel ambiance, bien situé, pas beaucoup de stationnement

The concept of self-serve is a good idea, different from other places like it, & the food is good! The coffee was average but overall I would go back for a quick bite!
