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.

Best bagel in Montreal! Always fresh, the recipes are excellent. My favs are: bagel deluxe for breakfast & smoked salmon for lunch.

Good neighborhood bagels with that fresh, Montreal-style vibe - especially if you're grabbing them to go. The bagels I took home were really good later on, so we got to enjoy them for a bit longer.

That said, the menu is pretty limited, & I felt like the sandwiches were overpriced for what you get (tried the smoked salmon, breakfast deluxe & classic sesame & cream cheese). There wasn't enough toppings to justify the price, & by midday some key ingredients (like tomatoes) were already gone. Service can be a bit slow during busy times too, so be prepared for a wait if there's a line.

Overall solid bagels & a nice local spot (parking is a big plus!), but there's room for improvement in value & consistency of toppings/service.

Great bagel, small portion sizes. I got the lox bagel & it was mid quality salmon with a very small amount. Good coffee

1.0

This was honestly awful. Charging $13 for an untoasted bagel with a smear of cream cheese & a single tiny slice of smoked salmon is ridiculous. The cream cheese tasted off, which only made it worse. Making a decent bagel is not complicated, yet this completely missed the mark. I wanted to like this place since it's right by my home, but I'd much rather drive & get a significantly better bagel at Solomos for the same price. Not worth it.

Legit one of the best Montreal-style bagel places. Crispy outside & chewy inside, plus excellent salmon to accompany it.

Their bagel made me realize how bad the Costco ones really are. This one had a perfect crispy exterior with great texture - not overly chewy like most. The smoked salmon paired beautifully with the sesame bagel, & every ingredient worked together flawlessly. Absolutely the best bagel I've ever had. I just wish I could find something this good in the U.S.!

The bagels here are definitely a top 3 in Montreal. Personally prefer this over St. Viateur & Fairmount. I usually get the salmon on everything bagel- it's so delicious & well-balanced. The latte (hot) is also made well.
