Bagel St-Lo se spécialise dans la production de bagels de style montréalais, roulés à la main, pochés dans une eau infusée au miel, puis cuits dans des fours traditionnels au bois. Cette méthode confère une croûte dorée distinctive et une mie dense et moelleuse propre à la tradition culinaire locale. L'établissement propose une gamme de variétés saupoudrées de graines ainsi que des accompagnements essentiels tels que du fromage à la crème onctueux et des tranches de saumon fumé. Au-delà du menu principal, le café offre des grains fraîchement moulus et des boissons sélectionnées pour compléter ces produits à base de pâte. L'environnement privilégie un service efficace et la préparation systématique de produits de boulangerie de base pour une clientèle exigeante. Chaque produit respecte les techniques ancestrales assurant la constance et l'intégrité du profil aromatique pour les visiteurs.
Bagel St-Lo est largement reconnu comme un joyau de quartier à Verdun, apprécié pour la fraîcheur et la grande qualité de ses bagels ainsi que pour son menu brunch généreux et savoureux. Les clients soulignent régulièrement l'accueil chaleureux et l'efficacité d'une équipe qui maintient une ambiance conviviale et confortable, même lors des périodes de forte affluence. Bien que certains mentionnent que l'endroit peut être parfois bruyant ou achalandé, le consensus général est que la combinaison d'un excellent service, d'une cuisine de qualité et d'un cadre charmant et bien décoré en fait une adresse incontournable pour le déjeuner ou le dîner, à laquelle habitués et visiteurs reviennent avec plaisir.
Honestly, be careful if you plan to go there; it'll ruin every other coffee place for ya. The only thing better than the food is the staff! Couldn't live without them now!

They are pet-friendly, even in the winter, which is nice (on the terasse)! Service is good, but since the concept is'unlimited coffee or tea,' you serve your own cup of coffee, & so the servers only give you your food. They're very kind, though ! The open terrasse in the winter is nice, but I wish they had it heated already. We asked the server to heat it when we arrived, but it never really got hot, & our puppy was freezing. As for the food itself, I'd say it's pricey for the quantity & quality of what you get. The bagels are good but nothing out of the ordinary. The sandwich itself is loaded, but for the price, you'd think it comes with a side or two, but it doesn't. Plus, I wanted to substitute the tomatoes for something else, but it was an extra anyway. The server was very nice in trying to help me find something that wouldn't cost too much to substitute, like peppers or onions, but I still think it shouldn't be an extra if you're replacing a veggie with another. Overall, food is okay. Service is good. The atmosphere is fine, but it could be better.
🥯 Update: November 2024 I've been coming to bagel St-Lo almost as long as it's been open, so I've seen it evolve over the years. In the beginning, it was a cozy, popular local bagel spot where you could expect to see the owner herself every day. It became so successful that they expanded into the space nextdoor. Even through a global pandemic, the community stepped up to keep their favourite bagel joint afloat. Today, St-Lo is a bustling brunch & breakfast restaurant & permanent fixture in Verdun that practically runs itself. Here's the thing: over the years, I've evolved too. In the beginning, I tried tons of things on the menu. Then I became vegetarian, but I still had several options. Eventually, I became vegan, & suddenly I could have only one dish on the menu. What disappoints me is that in all this time, the menu has hardly changed. Sure, they redesigned the look & feel of it, & maybe changed a few details here & there, but I guess they figure why change something that works. Today, as I sat in front of my plate, looking at the SAME flat gluten-free vegan bagel they've had for years, stuffed with the SAME arugula, hummus & Alfalfa sprouts, with a side of the SAME (but almost imperceptibly smaller) plain bell-pepper-&-lettuce salad, topped with the SAME dressing (which now makes me think of that "Svbway sandwich smell"), garnished with ONE kalamata olive & ONE cherry tomato, as usual, I started to wonder if this might be the last time I ate here for awhile. I still love St-Lo, but there's only so many times you can have the same dish without getting fed up of it. I wish they'd switch up a few menu items made with local, seasonal ingredients, like they do with their seasonal soup. Un 2e choix végane serait bien apprécié en tout cas. 🙏🏻 🗓 Original review (2020) I love Bagel St-Lo. It's one of Verdun's hidden gems. Bagel St-Lo makes the sweetest, freshest, most delicious bagels in Montreal. In my opinion, they're even better than hot St-Viateur & Fairmount bagels. I buy half a dozen St-Lo bagels almost every week; I can reheat them in the oven a week later after having kept them only in the fridge, & they taste just as fresh, which I can't say for any other bagel I've tried, fresh or day-old. Bagel St-Lo provides compostable takeout containers, paper straws & spaghetti sticks to stir your coffee. They have two self-serve coffee stations with mismatched mugs. Their black coffee is great, & I love their almond milk lattes. Bagels are incorporated into just about every dish on the breakfast, brunch & lunch menu. The restaurant has great vegetarian options & some vegan & gluten-free options. I've tried & enjoyed meals on the spot & to go, & they never disappoint. They're usually just enough for me, but someone who likes a copious breakfast might not be entirely full. The restaurant decor is eclectic & fun to look at, & the owners regularly display local artists' work. The place is really cozy & has outdoor seating in the summer. Bagel St-Lo is so popular that they acquired the space next door & expanded their restaurant, so seating has doubled. It's a big win for local diners! The new counter space is trendy but fits in well with the casual, colourful space. I love eating out on the terrasse in the summer. The wait is rarely more than 5 to 10 minutes, the table service is fast, & the staff is always very friendly. It's no wonder the place is always packed!
Great coffee! I got a latte & it was perfect. Love their bagels & homemade cream cheese. If you like a sweet option the blue berry cream cheese is really good. If you like savoury then I suggest the chive cream cheese
A lunch spot that I have been going to for a while now. They have gluten-free bagels which I appreciate a lot. Their soup has no dairy & their coffee is good. You get to choose your cup & today this was mine 😊
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.
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 👌
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!
