Fairmont Bagel: A Classic Montreal Icon Delivered Fresh & Hot
?If you want the quintessential Montreal bagel experience, Fairmont Bagel is an absolute must-visit.
?We were lucky enough to grab a sesame seed bagel straight from the wood-fired oven, & eating it while still warm was pure magic. The exterior had that signature light crisp, while the inside maintained the perfect chewy, dense bite. We paired it with a simple spread of plain cream cheese, & the combination was subtle, fresh, & deeply satisfying.
?Compared to St-Viateur, Fairmont's bagels feel slightly less sweet, allowing the nuttiness of the roasted sesame seeds & the rich flavor of the wood-fired bake to really shine through.
?There's something special about grabbing a hot bagel right off the wooden plank in a bakery that's been honing its craft since 1919. Unpretentious, iconic, & delicious-don't skip this spot when in the Mile End!

We hit this joint & the other bagel place in the same day. These bagels are fine. It's a very in/out hurry up vibe. Bagels were okay. They had samples at the counter to try the fun flavors before buying them.

They are GREAT!

The Pina Colada bagel was AMAZING! (It wasn't in the photo-I didn't see that side of the board from outside.)

If it's your first time, we suggest getting a sesame bagel (or another classic flavor) along with something more adventurous like the Pina Colada. Don't worry-you'll have no problem finishing both while walking a few blocks around Montreal.

Coming from Florida, we've always heard that New York has the best bagels. After eating these, there is absolutely no comparison. Fairmount Bagel has completely changed our minds.

Fresh, delicious, & worth the visit!

After trying a few of Montreal's famous bagel spots, this one ended up being one of my favorites. The bagel sandwich was fresh, packed with ingredients, & had a great balance of flavors.

What surprised me most was that I actually enjoyed the sandwich here more than some of the other hyped bagel shops in the city. The bagels had a great texture, & everything tasted fresh without feeling overly complicated.

If you're looking for a solid bagel sandwich in Montreal, don't overlook this place. Less hype, great food, & definitely worth a visit.

It's hard to beat their fresh out of oven sesame bagel. That's the one to have.

Try their sweet bagels too though. You won't find too many of them in New York so you might as well try them in Montreal

To appreciate the full flavor have them without cream cheese.

Overhyped with some pretty bad customer service. They don't take credit card, won't take CAD $20 bills & were very pushy. Said they had everything & it was all fresh but then when we tried to order different flavors we're told they didn't have any. Why even bother lying? The sesame bagel was way too sweet - think Chinese sesame bun sweet.

At least there was no line at 7:30am.

A classic bagel spot if you want those authentic Montreal style bagels, but they also have some unique flavors that you won't find elsewhere. The staff are really friendly & helpful so I highly recommend it!
