Bagels on Greene is described as a busy, versatile spot with a huge selection of bagels, sandwiches, soups, salads, pastries and drinks, and a strong takeout focus with a few tables for a quick bite. Reviews highlight the bagels themselves, especially sesame and smoked salmon, with generous fillings and tasty seasoning, though some say the bagels can be hard or overcooked. Self serve coffee and cafeteria or counter service make it a solid choice for a fast stop rather than a leisurely meal. A wide range of prepared foods including vegetarian options, a hot vegetarian buffet, knishes, empanadas and more adds variety for different tastes. Prices are generally good value but can be high at times, with some commentary about price versus portion. Service is often described as friendly and efficient, though comments about rude staff or inconsistent service exist and lines can form at busy times. Overall, it feels nostalgic and neighborhood oriented, not a fancy sit-down restaurant, and many customers return for the bagels and the ready-to-eat options.
Such a nostalgic spot for me for many reasons. I used to work in the area & also went to school at Dawson so Bagels Greene was nearby. It was always my go to lunch spot! They offer a cafeteria like style or counter style food. There's so many options & lot of fresh items as well as serve yourself coffee.
I ordered the salmon lox bagel & it was stacked. I like to get capers in my bagel for a bit of saltiness umami. The bagel itself was delicious & the seasoning on it was good. They were generous with the smoked salmon so I appreciated that.
This place is so bad they're bagels are mid, the actual food like empanadas & samosas are literally so oily & old it made me sick & even if you do orders for pick-up for a specific time you probably will
wait another 20 minutes past that. Also the cashier lady has a little attitude so would not recommend unless you have absolutely no other option.

Very good bagels - not Montreal standard, but to me in a good way! There's a lot you can do with the sandwiches, & there are a lot of other food options - knishes, but also various veggie & meat salads, empanadas, & more. There's even a hot table with various curries & other foods. Very reasonable prices & prompt & cheery service. I love bringing people here for breakfast or light lunches!
Dropped in for a late afternoon bite, bagel or other. Ended up opting for the hot food bar options stocked with great tasting Indian (veg & non-veg) meals. A place to come back to while in the Westmount/Place Alexis-Nihon area
They have a good variety if Indian food options. Especially in the self serve counter. But it looks a bit tacky in the middle of the whole place. Coffee place is a bit confusing. Probably they could improve their service there.

Nice bagel deli with a variety of bagels to choose from. They are moist & flavourful alone or filled with cream cheese. Many options to choose from in the ready made bagel old fashioned display showcase. There is the option to eat in or out as few tables are placed outside. Would definitely recommend.
The most amazing food... including Gluten Free options... there is really no reason to go anywhere but Bagels on Greene. The food is delicious, the service is quick, & the staff is extremely friendly. For bagels (highly recommend the Sesame - i can't stop eating them)... for salads (Mango Avocado - has a slight kick that contrasts the sweetness of the Mango that will keep you coming back for more) & you can not go wrong w/ their Chicken Salad. Lots of variety, GF (Gluten Free) options... A+++++++ service! If you haven't been... stop reading this & go now! PS: did I mention their coffee.... go go go!!

I absolutely love this place. It makes me feel like I'm in a new york city deli. The food is absolutely delicious & they have so many options! Vegan? check. Vegetarian? check. Organic? check. Healthy? check. Comfort carbs? check! I love to go for lunch, brunch & also when running I like stop for a smoothie.
Next time you want to impress someone with a neighborhood gem or want something really good for a decent price, don't think twice. This is it.
