Review Summary

Le Trou is widely celebrated for its fresh, authentic Montreal style bagels that feature a perfect balance of a crispy exterior and a chewy, soft interior. Many patrons praise the high quality of the ingredients used in their sandwiches, particularly the smoked salmon and breakfast deluxe options, often describing them as some of the best in the city. The atmosphere is frequently described as warm, cozy, and welcoming, with many visitors highlighting the friendly and attentive nature of the staff. While the shop is compact and can become quite warm due to the on-site baking process, the overall consensus points to a delightful experience for those seeking a delicious, freshly prepared snack or meal in a charming neighborhood setting.

Bagel très médiocre, servi à peine chaud : le fromage n'était pas fondu, la salade peu appétissante & les oeufs beaucoup trop cuits. Au-delà de la qualité décevante des produits, les conditions d'hygiène semblent très mauvaises.
La cuisine ouverte derrière le comptoir laisse voir que les préparateurs ne portent même pas de gants pour la préparation. À cela s'ajoute qu'il n'y avait même pas de savon dans les toilettes, ce qui en dit long sur le niveau général d'hygiène de l'établissement…
On m'avait recommandé cet endroit, mais je suis ressortie très déçue. Entre manque de soin, hygiène douteuse & bagels sans intérêt, l'expérience est clairement à éviter.

Très bien pour manger sur le pouce, tous les ingrédients sont très bons, le tout ensemble marche bien! Il y a plusieurs choix de bagels. Par contre, un seul choix végétarien mais celui-ci est très bon donc cela reste correct.
Bon endroit & très bon rapport qualité prix je recommande vivement. Les docks sont à 5 minutes à pied, on peut manger son bagel & aller se balader le long du canal juste après c'est très plaisant

Love this little bagel joint. Fresh daily. Obsessed with the Everything Bagels. They're sandwiches are great! Love the atmosphere. Enjoy that they regularly add new items to the menu. I met Raphaelle in December & she was kind, inviting & goes above & beyond for her customers. She has great new & refreshing ideas & she is very passionate. I recommend this place 100%.

The bagels were absolutely delicious - soft on the inside, perfectly toasted on the outside, & topped with just the right amount of cheese. Every bite was rich, fresh, & flavorful. Highly recommend if you're looking for a satisfying & tasty snack!
& the coffee was excellent - rich aroma, smooth texture, & perfectly balanced flavor. It was freshly brewed & full of depth, giving a great energy boost. Definitely a must-try for coffee lovers!
