The bagels were remarkable! We especially enjoyed the strawberry cream cheese & the salmon avocado. The service was immensely great from samples to recommendations. There was even a candy cane tree that the amazing lady tipped us on. Ultimately I would definitely recommend this restaurant. It has made me see bagels in a new perspective! P.S. the waitress was so nice!

La Fabrique de Bagel de Montréal at Balfour is everything you want in a neighborhood bagel shop. The bagels are fresh, warm, & perfectly chewy with that signature Montréal-style flavor. I had a sesame bagel with smoked salmon, cream cheese, red onion, & capers, & it was absolutely perfect - fresh ingredients & generous portions. The staff were super welcoming & helpful, & you can tell they take pride in what they do. There's something really comforting about walking into a place that smells like fresh-baked bagels & coffee - it just feels right.
The picture says for itself. It was so good, perfect for a quick little breakfast, staff was friendly as well! 100% recommend salmon & Brie if they have it :)
I recently visited this cafe, & while my experience had its ups & downs, there are some highlights worth mentioning. The coffee is decent but nothing extraordinary. One thing that stood out was the inconsistency with the lattes-mine was overly foamy, more like a cappuccino than a true latte. Given the prices, I was expecting a bit more precision. On the bright side, the bagel sandwiches are fantastic! The BLT was a solid choice, but the real star for me was the salmon cream cheese bagel. It was fresh, flavorful, & definitely worth trying. Overall, while the coffee could use some improvement, the bagel sandwiches alone make it worth a visit. Just be prepared to pay a little more than you'd expect.
Staff was nice but salmon on bagels was not the best quality & baked goods were not the freshest. Overall ok but prob wouldn't come again... if they had fresher food then I definitely would because the atmosphere is nice & all the staff were nice.
Everything was a bit pricey for what it was, but the bagels were delicious, & it was nice dining there beside the big open window on a nice day. We had bagels with smoked salmon & capers, ham, egg, cheese, & avocado, & cream cheese. All of them were good & made for a nice, light lunch. We drove & parking was a bit tricky because it was busy with so many eateries nearby, but the location is convenient.
