"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."

The breakfast bagel was delicious. The coffee was much better than that available in most restaurants.

Growing up in Ottawa (& living now in Toronto) Kettlemans has been my goto for bagels. Honestly, I had a bagel here & it was kind of dry & tasteless. Also, I was charged for a full breakfast sandwich when ordering just an egg & cheese.

I had the BLT bagel for breakfast & it was excellent. Just a 6-7 minute walk from the Delta & not far from St. Catherines St. I would def go back next time in MTL.

Split feelings, it was my first time visiting this place, super clean & not busy at all i was the only one in. Many people came but most order & leave. I got the breakfast bagle, never had a bagle that dry before. Took it in trio with some hashbrowns looking greassy things. Could not identify & taste was to much onions. Coffee was good, hot & strong. Not much info from this fast food place, try it out & see if you have a better experience.

I'm giving a 3 stars because i'm normally very satisfied with the quality of products & the great service but was unfortunately disappointed this morning when I ordered the breakfast bagel egg, bacon & cheese sandwich only to arrive at work & open it up & see the egg is missing & also on regular sesame bagel when I had asked for poppy seed bagel.. needless to say it tasted quite dry without the most important ingredient, the egg!
