Review Summary

Fairmount Bagel Bakery is described as an iconic Montreal staple, with wood fired ovens delivering warm, chewy bagels that are best enjoyed fresh and often taken to go. Reviews celebrate a broad lineup of flavors from sesame and everything to blueberry and sun dried tomato, with many calling the sesame bagel the standout and consistently excellent. Readers note the aroma and the hands on experience of watching dough being shaped and boiled in honey water before baking, which adds to the charm. The atmosphere varies in tone from warmly praised staff to occasional comments about slow or uneven service, and some notes about unfriendly moments. A common caveat is that the shop is cash or Canadian debit card only, with some posts noting no seating and lines that move slowly at peak times, but many still say the wait is worth it for the quality. Several reviewers declare it among the best bagels in Montreal if not the world, often preferring it to competitors and NYC comparisons, while a few say the quality can vary and freshness fades later in the day. Overall, the reviews paint a picture of a beloved institution where fresh, warm bagels, classic toppings, and a straightforward takeout experience define the visit, and where the ritual and taste keep locals and visitors returning.

Before I left Montreal, I needed to try these. When I got there, the line wasn’t as long & it moved pretty quickly. I went in & got a dozen bagels (blueberry, sesame, whole wheat & all dressed). I was also recommended the cream cheese (original) with the salmon spread. As I got to the airbnb, I gave it a try. It’s soft & thin - nothing compared to American bagels. When it’s toasted even better. I sliced each one & frozen them up. I have a good amount in my freezer.
