Welcome to our authentic and artisanal bagel shop, where we prove that size really does matter! Our bagels, twice the size of traditional ones, are made to be enjoyed fresh and hot. With us, it’s always bigger, fresher, and above all, more delicious! Come “rip N dip” with us!
Reviews of BBagels describe a warm family run spot with oversized fluffy bagels that feel like a New York style with a Montreal twist. Diners praise the open faced sandwiches and stuffed bagels, the rip and dip service style, and a wide lineup of house made schmears and dips, including vegan options like chimichurri and lemon scallion, plus inventive flavors such as honey garlic jalapeno and zaatar. The smoked salmon bagel and other bagel sandwiches are repeatedly highlighted as exceptional, with many calling the salmon bagel the best they have had. The texture is noted as crispy on the outside and soft inside, and portions are generous. Several reviews applaud the thoughtful low waste approach and friendly, welcoming staff, sometimes in a quaint neighborhood vibe, though a few mention price, wait times, or a non traditional bagel experience compared with classic Montreal staples. Overall, BBagels emerges as a standout, if occasionally divisive, option for bagel lovers seeking bold flavors and a high care level.
Absolutely delicious, the bagels are the perfect consistency throughout - satisfyingly chewy on the inside & crunchy on the outside, & the dips have a lot of flavour.
Bardzo urocze miejsce, ?wietna, szybka obs?uga i nienajgorsze ceny (jeden bajgiel + dip 5 dolarów). Wypieki wy?mienite, naprawd? przepyszne, a atmosfera niepowtarzalna.
I visited this place yesterday & it's such a cute little bagel spot. We tried the bagel with dip-everything bagel with a vegan dip-& it was absolutely amazing. They also offer bagel sandwiches with some really unique options, including vegan choices, which I loved.
We couldn't resist trying the Oreo cookie, & it was delicious. I was honestly blown away by the taste & texture of the bagels. The coffee selection is limited (just black coffee & latte).
On top of that, the service was fantastic. Everyone working there was friendly & welcoming, which made the experience even better. I would definitely recommend checking this place out.
It was very busy on Sunday, hard to get a place to sit but no line to counter. Took about 8 min to get the bagels & schmears & another 20 to get the sandwiches. If time is an issue, order ahead. Tried the poppy seed bagel & jalepeno dip immediately, perfect combo. Warm & soft on a cold day.
We had the tomato sandwich & the smoked meat stuffed one. They were so good. The tomato one is filling without being heavy, even though the bagels are way denser than the usual bagels.
I doubt the six I bought to take home are going to last the week. 100% will be back.
This was a cute little area. Not a lot of seating. The front staff is very warm & helpful when ordering. I love the concept of bark spread alternatives that you dip. I have a dairy allergy & was glad they had dips for me. The bagels were the best around. & fluffy! I truly amazing. Last second I got a second dip & second bagel & I am so glad I did. They were my favorite. A sesame bagel with lemon butter spread was incredible. Highly recommend. My friend recommends the salmon bagel.
I recently visited BBagels with my friend Sarah, who was invited in to taste the menu & shoot content. I came along as the hand model & very willing taste tester.
This is their first winter since opening in April 2025, & the intention behind the place really shows. The space used to be a clothing store before Byron & his family took it over, & now it feels warm & lived-in… with small details that tell a story. The concept started as a pop-up in Pointe-Saint-Charles, & that roots-first energy is still very present.
The bagels themselves are fluffy & filling, with a crisp exterior & a soft interior. They offer both classic options & playful twists like za'atar-crusted or smoked-meat-stuffed bagels. My favorite schmear was the honey garlic jalapeno… sweet on the first bite, then slowly warming, the kind of flavor that keeps you ripping & dipping until there's nothing left. A close second was the scallion & lemon zest, bright & fresh, with just enough tang to cut through the richness.
What stood out most was the care behind the scenes. BBagels takes a very practical zero-waste approach: leftover bagels become homemade chips offered as samples, & a single lemon is fully used across the menu… zest in schmear, juice for homemade lemonade, & the rest folded into marmalade. Nothing feels performative, just thoughtful.
They offer open-faced sandwiches, rip-&-dip bagels, stuffed bagels, & recently added soup. The soup does sell out quickly, so arriving earlier is a good idea. That said, it feels less like a drawback & more like a sign that everything here is made in real time, not mass-produced or rushed.
Byron runs the shop as a true family business, & you'll sometimes see his kids helping out, which adds to the sense of community. By the door, there's also a small notebook where customers can doodle or leave a note, like a casual guest book that quietly reinforces that neighborhood feel.
Not flashy & not trying too hard… just well-made bagels, excellent schmear, & a clear sense of care behind every decision. A place that feels good to support, & even better to eat at.

If youre looking for a traditional sesame cream cheese bagel taste with the dip inside the bagel, this is NOT the place. My pregnancy bagel craving was not satisfied. Other than that, place looked nice & friendly staff.
Juste incroyable. On aime les bagels des endroit super populaire de Montréal mais pour mon goût personnel, je préfère ceux de bbagels. Tellement moelleux & croustillants a la fois. Beaucoup plus gros que le bagel traditionnels de montreal sans toutefois fois être trop massif & difficile. Les dips sont exeptionelle, toutes faites maison. Il y en as vraiment pour tous les goûts. L'équipe est tres accueillante. Il y a possibilité de commander a l'avance pour skipper la file. Allez visitez le site, il y a des boite brunch a commander avec plein de bonnes choses. Le bagel saumon... juste parfait, ya pas d'autre mot pour le décrire. Il y a des bagel farcis, insane, bagel déjeuner & bagel smoked meat avec choucroute, une bouchée complètement montrealaise. J'adore. Je recommande fortement.
I've always preferred Montreal style bagels over NY. But I have to say, despite them being NY style, these are my new favourite bagels in Montreal. Perfectly chewy on the inside with an incredibly satisfying cruschy exterior. Not to mention they're all vegan & they have vegan dip options too. Will be back. A lot.
Correct mais sans plus, pas les meilleurs surtout qu'ils sont excessivement chers 20$+tx pour 6 bagels & 2 dips (pas top) 1 est aller directement dans les poubelles tellement la texture était dégueulasse.
Don't WALK, RUN to your favorite new bagels in Montreal. Trust me, I'm a native New Yorker with exquisite taste buds & very picky with my bagels esp when I feel like nothing beats NYC :) My husband & I were in Montreal for the week trying all the original & viral & top lists & BBagels will for sure leave a mark as the last thing we ate in the city, but certainly the most remarkable! I stumbled on this place on the map because we were looking for best bagel & tried five spots BEFORE discovering BBagels but all of them were lacking flavor, too long of lines, Hyped, cold bagels, too much sesame & then comes to find out that the typical Montreal style bagel is thin & kinda like a fagel, & has honey in it!!! 😭 NOT BBagels though, no honey! I was kindly educated by this nice man who helped me & explained BBagels is new since March. Not sure if he was the owner but I didn't want him to give me anything for free for my review so I just listened to his story & about their bagels & how they don't use honey so everything is vegan friendly! There was even a lot of speciality spreads & cream cheeses that are vegan too. I picked up a scallion & lemon zest cream cheese for my husband & I had tried the vegan chimmichuri butter one! Sooooo good. I love that BBagels is lesser known so there was NO line I walked straight in & was greeted with a smile & gave me a rundown on how the bagel routine worked - you rip a piece off & dip into your spread & it reminded me of Pop Up Bagel style in NYC! I love how all three of the bagels we tried were piping hot & straight out of the oven. So much flavor & fluffy!!! We had the Za'atar, Salt, & Everything. They also had some open faced specials too but I was just on the hunt for a simple bagel so we could do a comparison! Since this place is new I think it still needs to be discovered so I'm sure they are going to go viral soon! It's also perfect with a Cafe Olympico Iced Latte so def hit up both places & enjoy in the lovely parks.
Incredibly tasty bagels, & I absolutely love the'rip & dip' format because it means I can portion the dip to bagel ratio exactly how I like it. The honey garlic + jalepeno dip is outstanding!
The bagels are so fluffy & delicious. it's a dipping concept & would highly recommend their honey garlic jalapeno & lemon zest scallion. absolutely delicious & very friendly.

i never leave reviews but this was incredible. the open-face smoked salmon sandwich was crafted by gods. savoury spread, fresh toppings, smoky perfection. & the rip & dip honey garlic jalapeno schmear is delicious - can't get enough. Super friendly staff, easy access spot w/ a cool view of local downtown life.
The rip & dip technique is new to me (confession: I took this moment of unconventional bagel eating to also just take a bite out of it like it was a donut... first time for everything right? felt amazing, might never cut a bagel again) anyway back on track. These are the BIGGEST & SQUISHIEST bagels in this town. & they're absolutely delicious. I tried cinnamon, poppyseed & sesame & for real the way the sesame was toasted was so flipping good. Cinnamon paired with the schmear of the day... bacon & maple I think... match made in heaven. I haven't stopped thinking about these bagels since.
Also the gal behind the counter was absolutely lovely, if you have time get the full story behind the bbagels!! Ya won't regret it.
