"Kettlemans Bagel opened in Ottawa in August of 1993. When the business started, our mission was to make the best bagels you could find. By rolling, kettling, and baking traditional Montreal Bagels in a wood-burning oven using hand-picked hardwood, and maintaining an unwavering commitment to the traditional quality of the food, we have become a food institution — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and 365 days a year — for over 25 years. However, tradition does not mean much if the authenticity is gone."

I ate a ham & cheese bagel here with the herb bagel. It came with a pickle which was a tasty bonus! Everything was delicious. The store was very clean & well stocked. The staff was polite & nice to us. The location is great & the store was super clean. I love the ambience of the restaurant.

Took a little long to get my bagel but it was definitely worth it. The texture of the bagels were just exactly on point, it was almost like the flavours were having a party in my mouth. When they added stuff to the bagels to make it a sandwich, it was one of the greatest ideas since the invention of the lightbulb. The fact that you're able to watch your bagel get made just makes the experience 10 times better. Thank you Kettlemans Bagel for the amazing food & experience.
