Kettlemans Bagel se spécialise dans le bagel montréalais traditionnel, caractérisé par une pâte roulée à la main puis pochée dans une eau additionnée de miel avant une cuisson rigoureuse dans un four à bois emblématique. Chaque bagel présente une texture moelleuse caractéristique associée à un profil légèrement sucré et une croûte dorée et croustillante. Le menu propose une vaste sélection de fromages à la crème, variant des options nature classiques aux mélanges aux légumes ou au saumon fumé. La cuisine ouverte permet aux clients d'observer le processus exigeant de fabrication des bagels tout au long du service. Les sandwichs fraîchement préparés utilisent ces bagels comme base, intégrant des charcuteries de qualité et des produits frais. Cet établissement privilégie la rapidité et la constance, offrant des produits artisanaux authentiques qui définissent un patrimoine culinaire canadien par des techniques précises et une cuisson au feu de bois.
Kettlemans Bagel est largement reconnu comme une destination incontournable à Montréal pour ses bagels frais de haute qualité, offrant un équilibre parfait entre un extérieur croustillant et un intérieur moelleux. De nombreux clients apprécient les portions généreuses, la grande variété de sandwichs proposés et l'expérience unique de pouvoir observer la cuisson des bagels sur place. Bien que la plupart des visiteurs soulignent la propreté des lieux ainsi que le professionnalisme et la gentillesse du personnel, la rapidité du service et la constance de la nourriture peuvent varier lors des périodes de forte affluence. Dans l'ensemble, cet établissement est régulièrement recommandé comme une option abordable et accueillante pour le petit-déjeuner ou un repas rapide, particulièrement pour ceux qui se rendent au Centre Bell situé à proximité.
Absolutely incredible bagel spot in Montreal. I was genuinely impressed by how fresh everything was - you can actually watch the bagels being baked right in front of you, which made the experience even better.
The entire location was very clean & well-maintained, & the staff were professional, friendly, & efficient. I also really enjoyed the indoor dining area & had a chance to sit & enjoy the atmosphere for a bit.
The variety of bagels available was amazing. Although I didn't get a chance to try their smoked salmon or specialty sandwiches this time, the fresh bagels I had were outstanding.
I even brought several bagels back to the Greater Toronto Area for my family, & they absolutely loved them. You can really tell the ingredients are high quality, & seeing everything made fresh in front of you gives a lot of confidence in the product.
I'll definitely be coming back the next time I'm in Montreal. Highly recommended!
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.
First time in Montreal, we discover that a local specialty is BAGELS (I thought New York had the monopoly of that), & upon the recommendation of the staff in our hotel for a good place nearby, we rush to Kettlemans to check it out. Well, we were not disappointed: the bagels are very good, with all the necessary condiments (various types of cream cheese, lox, onions, etc.). Staff was friendly & efficient, the place is new, clean & well organised. We will go back.
This Bagel shop is my first time. Came here to buy a 12 Bagels.
Pros:
A) It's in downtown. That's the best part.
B) It's open 24 Hours.
C) You can eat inside & they have plenty of seats available.
D) The spot & place looks clean.
Cons:
A) The bagel is okay the taste is good but I like more taste when it comes to the bagel nothing serious though.
B) Service can be slow as there is only 2 cash register.
C) They need to have more details about the shop outside like opening hours & the rating by the health inspectors etc.
Conclusion:
It's okay bagel shop hope to try their specialties but for now I think I will stay away from this shop.
I hope they improve in terms of taste, quality good people & customers relations.
The service was really nice, super cool people. The bagels were pretty good. Dining area & restrooms were clean, which is a plus compared to some places nearby. Will definitely go back.
Kettlemans Bagel is a delightful spot for bagel enthusiasts looking for fresh & delicious offerings. The store is clean & has a good atmosphere. The bagels are fresh, with several varieties to choose from. They also offer a selection of gourmet items, either to buy separately, or add to your bagel, such as artisanal cream cheeses & smoked salmon. They also have a few freshly made pastries. Their prices are good & acceptable However, my visit had a few downsides. When I inquired about a couple of sandwiches from the menu, I was disappointed to learn that some ingredients were unavailable. Additionally, I noticed a concerning issue: there were a few flies around the pastry section, occasionally landing on the pastries. This detracted from an otherwise good experience. Overall, while the food quality is commendable, attention to cleanliness in certain areas could be improved.
