The cafe vibe extends to excellent coffee and brunch offerings that fit the comforting mood of the place. Some reviewers mention price points as a consideration, but most agree the quality and experience justify it. Overall, it emerges as a local gem and a must visit in Montreal for bagel lovers and fans of Jewish inspired creations.
Just plain ol' good!!!
What an incredible addition to the montreal food scene.
Was able to try this place out soon after it opened, staff was so kind, vibe was great & design so cool. Best lox bagel ive had in the city, & ive tried many!
Today, i ordered on uber eats- im recovering from surgery & was so happy to see this place on there.Food was incredibly fresh still & delicious. Tried the Larry ( best of both worlds- love that option!) trying white fish for the first time. Easy to try something new when everything there is always so tasty.
On top of that, Jake left the sweetest message on my bag.
Wonderful spot, sweet people- just try it out yourselves!
What's crazy to me is that something like this hasn't been open in the mile end for the last 80 years. This is exactly what our neighbourhood needed & just couldn't have been executed any better. The staff is incredibly friendly, the cooks are outstanding, & the vibes are, as the kids might say, immaculate. Not to mention that there are at least two Jakes. Our dog Earl also approves. Highly recommend for locals & visitors alike.

GREAT experience at Greenbergs. The smoked salmon was amazing & the whitefish salad on bagel was delicious. Smoked salmon made in house !!!!Knishes were top notch too. The poutine knish was a special treat. Shout out to Jake & his cousin for making
the experience even more delightful. A visit while in Montreal
I can't say enough good things about this place. From the moment you walk in, the place has such a charming & welcoming vibe - but the real magic happens once you try their lox. Hands down, the best I've ever had. Perfectly sliced, delicate, flavorful, & melt-in-your-mouth fresh - it's absolutely unforgettable.
The terrace is stunning too with their flowers outside.
A huge thank you to Jake, the owner, who is truly a caring & kind person. His passion for quality & his warm hospitality really shine through in every detail. This place is a gem - I'll be back!
Loved it!!! Had a delicious bagel Lox cream cheese Shmear & the works🩷 Coffee was surprising amazing as well!
Thanks Jake & the team! You guys are fabulous
Great vibes! Great food! Great coffee. What more can you ask for? Come for the bagels. Stay for the schmear. (Did I just create a t-shirt??) Jake & his team will go out of their way to welcome you with open arms. A definite must-visit if you're even the slightest bit curious about this restaurant.
This place is a wonderful addition to the neighborhood & brings back the old time place where you can hang out & be well fed. I happen to be a huge fan of Jake's smoked salmon which I consider to be some of the best ever & always go home with a few pounds.
The bagels & salmon covered with his lemon cream cheese & crunchy fried onions is wonderful. His potato knishes are a true delight.
This menu will develop & grow over time as they gain more experience & feedback from the neighbors.
This place can certainly become an iconic must stop when friends come to visit Montreal. In the meantime we can all enjoy it before the line ups start.

Everything made & served with looooove. Highlights are the whitefish salad with bagel chips, bagels with smoked salmon, latkes, creative varieties of knish, & the Jake. The Jake is the best part.
What truly makes'Chez Greenberg' special isn't just the food it's Jake. He treats every guest like family, & making sure everyone feels welcome.
From the moment i walked in, Jake greeted me with a smile & a genuine kindness that's hard to find these days!
You come for the food, but you stay for the warmth.
Jewish cuisine elevated to a new level. Flavors are rich yet balanced, presentation is simple. The vegetables they serve are grown on set using a hydroponic system, ensuring freshness & quality. I don't forget to thank the beautiful girl who followed my order 🤩 💘
I tried their smoked vegetables bagels it was incredible😋👏🏻
For all book lovers they have a small library but most are in English so I suggest to add some French books 😉 & more vegetarian food on the menu 🙏🏻
'll definitely come back to try their coffee 😀
Keep up the good work 👍🏻
Un endroit exceptionnel! Le saumon fumé est incroyable - un pur délice! 😍 Jake est tellement accueillant & amical, sa présence rend l'atmosphère encore plus agréable!
