"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."
Les avis sur Kettlemans Bagel convergent vers des bagels frais et variés, souvent excellents, accompagnés d'un fromage à la crème goûteux et de garnitures généreuses, avec un service rapide et sympathique qui sait conseiller les choix. Le personnel est généralement accueillant, professionnel et attentionné, et l'établissement est décrit comme propre et bien organisé, offrant une ambiance confortable et efficace. La qualité des bagels est régulièrement saluée pour leur croustillance et leur saveur, avec des options allant du smoked meat aux créations végétariennes, et des sandwiches bien exécutés sur place ou à emporter. Certaines expériences signalent des commandes qui prennent du temps, des erreurs occasionnelles et des bagels parfois plus secs ou moins frais, rappelant une certaine variabilité. Malgré ces cas, l'endroit est recommandé pour les gourmets de bagels et pour sa localisation pratique près du centre-ville, et l'envie de revenir est fréquente lorsque le service et la nourriture atteignent les attentes.
Kettleman's Bagels was awesome! Super friendly & quick service. Got a really tasty sandwich & the cashier Sophie was so nice & helpful-made great suggestions & just had a great vibe. Fresh bagel, good portions. Definitely going back soon 😊
They aren't quite NJ/NY-level of bagels, but they're still good. Have gotten a dozen bagels to take home & freeze, tried some of the cream cheeses, & bagel sandwiches to eat there. Pleasant dining area, big windows so you're right there on Avenue des Canadiennes, by the Bell Center. Very commercial, very consistent. Have always had very pleasant service & good experiences here. Watched them make the bagels through the glass. Bagels are always fresh. Never had a long line to order, always found a table to sit at.

The bagels take a long time to make but that's because they're freshly made! Overall customer service was good, & there's a seating area if you want to enjoy it in-store instead of take it to go. Plenty of variety to choose from too.
The food is fresh. It's located at the heart of downtown & the vibe of the place is just the perfect example of "peace admist chaos". You pay for the experience.
The first time I tried this place, I really liked it. However, I went back today with my brother & it was not fresh at all :( I took the cubano & the bagel was HARD as a rock & tasted days old. The meat did not taste fresh either. My brother took the Kettlemans special, which he found wasn't as good as the first time either. There was a good amount of salmon, but the amount of cream cheese overwhelmed it. However, his bagel tasted fresher than mine so I guess I just got an old one that they found under the counter 😂
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.
The best made & freshest bagels 🥯. Totally yummy. I love my sesame bagel toasted with butter while drinking coffee. Oh! I have to get back there again soon. Well done!
Perfect Montreal-style bagles & fun to watch them making them. Good variety of fresh-made sandwiches, drip coffee, & take home options. Dill pickles cream cheese is the best!!
I live in NJ so I have very high standards & very low expectations for bagels outside of the tristate area. I have to say these bagels impressed me. They are freshly made with a nice chewy inside & a crunchy fire grilled outside. The flavors were on point too. Bravo Kettlemans for making me believe in the Montréal style bagel.
Great bagel shop in the heart of downtown Montreal but this morning they had no fresh bagels. Unacceptable for a 24/7 bagel shop. They offered me a 0.50$ discount on a bag of yesterdays bagels. It would be better to have two prices, one for fresh & one for supermarket grade plastic bagged bagels at the supermarket price.
Kettlemans Bagel is a gem! Just imagine a world where bagels are the ultimate sandwich! A world where your wildest imagination can be put in a delicious fresh bagel. Kettlemans is that magical place.
