"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."
Overall, reviews of Kettlemans Bagel describe a place with fresh Montreal-style bagels and a wide range of toppings, from cream cheese to smoked meat, with many customers praising the quality and variety. Service is frequently noted as fast and friendly, the surroundings are clean and welcoming, and staff are described as helpful with good recommendations. Many visitors say they would return and some call it among the best bagels in Montreal, though a few reports mention slower service, occasional order mix-ups, or inconsistency in bagel texture from visit to visit. Pricing is described as reasonable or competitive for the quality, with some comments about value and portions. Overall sentiment emphasizes taste and service, with praise for ambiance and care shown by the staff, while noting that experiences can vary.
