Le Trou is widely praised for fresh, wood fired style Montreal bagels with a chewy interior and a crispy exterior, the everything bagel and smoked salmon options getting particular love, and the sandwiches and coffee earning solid marks in a warm, welcoming atmosphere that many call a neighborhood highlight. Reviewers note the on site baking and frequent menu updates as strengths and appreciate the casual, friendly service, though some caution that the menu can feel limited, toppings can be sparse, prices can be high for what you get, and service can slow down during busy times. Indoor seating can be warm and parking in the area can be tricky, but the overall sentiment is that Le Trou delivers highly tasty bagels and a charming spot worth returning to.
I had the Sesame Seed with cream cheese & salmon, it was delicious !! The place is so cute & the staff is very friendly. Great little spot to grab breakfast or lunch on the go ! They even have tiny bagel balls you can buy in batches of 6, super fun to share & yummy !
My friends & I came to Le Trou to try the bagels & were not disappointed. The bagels are nice & fresh. We tried the smoked salmon, smoked meat, & burger bagels - very tasty & less dense than others. We'll definitely come back the next time we're in Montreal & will recommend it to all our friends.
I was told that Montreal bagels were better than NYC bagels & I nearly fought that person. I tried Le Trou & I am reluctantly writing this review to say that he might be right. I had the salmon bagel & it was the best salmon bagel I've ever had. This place is fantastic.
really solid ingredients, turned into really tasty bagels. nice texture & consistency. I got the smoked salmon & all of the ingredients were so fresh & tasty! incredible. also the bagel holes were delicious!
Loved this bagel place. Can come a bit expensive depending on what you order (like beef + parmesan, nevertheless delicious). But the smoked salmon one was so good.
Absolutely the best bagels in town, & the best bagel sandwiches. The salmon bagels & smoke meat bagels are so fresh & authentic. The services are fast, & staff friendly. Can't live without.
Had the smoked salmon bagel on sesame & as soon as I finished it I ordered another. It was so so good! & more than that, the service was incredible & the ambiance was so lovely. I bought some more bagels to go & will definitely be visiting again on my next trip to MTL!
