Cute coffee & bagel shop. I tried the bagel of the day, & it was a BLT. They did it with a twist. There was spicy avocado inside. It was really good! They were really friendly & courteous. I have to come back & try other bagel combos.

We had the opportunity to try their classic New York & Montreal bagels, & both were memorable for different reasons. The New York bagel was juicy, with a delightful texture that felt both fresh & satisfying. On the other hand, the Montreal bagel was a smoky dream, perfect for lovers of smoked meat. It's a flavor that lingers & leaves you wanting more.

A highlight of our visit was the special Valentine's Day red bagel paired with cream cheese. It was a fun twist on the traditional, offering a subtle sweetness. While enjoyable, we felt the red velvet cake could use a bit more refinement in flavor-it didn't quite hit that cake-like perfection we were hoping for. However, it's still worth trying if you're in the mood for something seasonal.

The space itself was charming & well-decorated for Valentine's Day, with a mural depicting Montreal, which beautifully ties into the bagel culture. The overall vibe of the café was sleek & modern, though nothing out of the ordinary for a coffee shop. The walls were lined with witty taglines, which added a touch of personality to the place.

Service was excellent-friendly staff who were happy to guide us through the menu & explain the ingredients in the sandwiches. This level of care made the experience feel special.

Price-wise, they offers great value. The portions are generous, especially considering the deluxe bagel sandwiches, & with specials like the Valentine's Day two-for-one deal, it's hard not to leave satisfied.

Overall, Hinnawi is a wonderful spot for bagel enthusiasts, whether you're stopping by for a classic or checking out their seasonal offerings. Just a note on the red velvet cake-while it's a fun idea, it might need a little tweaking to reach its full potential. But that's a small flaw in an otherwise stellar experience.

Happened to pop in for a bagel while I was out for a walk with my dog, & am I sure glad I did! I got the petit Quebec bagel & it was delicious. Service from Nafaa was fantastic. He was so friendly & welcoming! I ended up stopping in on my way out of Montreal to pick up a dozen bagels to go. The prices are extremely reasonable & the quality is comparable to the more well known bagel shops in Montreal.

Perfect little bagel shop. I only wish they opened earlier like 6 a.m. but it seems most places like this don't open that early in Montreal like they do in USA cites so they're on par. I will return when I'm in Montreal for sure.
