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.
Honnêtement, c'est la meilleure place pour le café , les bagesl,les patates hashbrown & pour le service. Les prix font du sens , la bouffe est délicieuse & le service est juste impeccable. J'y vais au moins 2 fois par semaine depuis les 6 dernières années. L'essayer c'est l'adopter!
Bel endroit relax avec service rapide pour manger un petit déjeuner. À aussi une petite boutique à l'entrée avec des vins & produits locaux ainsi que possibilité d'acheter des grains & café & des bagels pour emporter.
love this place been coming here weekly for about a year now. Recently I have noticed their "quick menu" of just the real simpler ones has gotten a bit pricier. Didnt bother me too much as I notice them constantly renovating the place. What bothered me in the noticeable portion cuts as well. My BLT last week was weak & small, compared to the usual spilling of bacon. A different morning my bacon egg & cheese lacked as well. From a near 10-15% price increase with a cut in portions I'll just be coming in less often.
Superbe endroit ! Le service est toujours rapide & impeccable, & les plats sont, sans exagérer, toujours délicieux. Les fruits sont frais & savoureux à chaque visite. La nouvelle terrasse jaune est magnifique, & grâce aux chauffages extérieurs, nous étions confortablement au chaud. Seul bémol : la porte qui, en se refermant, produit un bruit vraiment DÉRANGEANT!!! À part ce détail, tout est impeccable !
🥯 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!
I like their bagels & often bring them home. However, twice now, I've received only 11 bagels after ordering & paying for 12. I didn't realize it until I got home (who counts the bagels in the shop? ;))I wish they'd be more attentive-it's understandable once, but twice? I'd rather not have to count them each time...
