Je conseille surtout les bagels sésames qui sont chauds & délicieux à manger nature. Prévoyez d'apportez une carte de débit ou comptant pour les plus petits achats.
The classic, best bagels in Montreal. We sometimes come down just for the bagels alone. Don't bother with anything else, get the sesame ones.
Ok, so truth be told, I typically prefer St. Viateur for a reason. However, last night I ended up back at Fairmont because St. Viateur now closes early. Although both bagels are very similar, the reason I stopped buying Fairmont was due to a problem which used to occur far too often where the sesame seeds used would occasionally have a distinct taste of mold. This was not the case this time. &, I truly hope it stays this way. Interesting fact: ( for those who care) If you are at Fairmont late in the evening & find yourself squeezing between the 5 pallets stacked with 15 trays of bagged bagels destined for retail sale, & wondered how many bagels are on those 5 pallets, the numbers are as follows. Each tray has 9 dozen (108 bagels) X 15 trays per pallet 1,620 X 5 pallets= 8,100 bagels. At the present cost per dozen the 5 pallets are yours for just under $9,000.... But I'm sure they will cut you a better price for quantity.
Best bagels.... & they are open 24hrs. & their blueberry bagels are fantastic. Great bagels.
Lovely bagels, feels like you're transported back to an older time (in a good way). Cash only is a barrier to actually purchasing their products.
