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.
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!

Un vrai coup de coeur ! Les bagels sont absolument délicieux : toujours frais, moelleux & goûteux, avec une cuisson sur place qui fait toute la différence. On sent la qualité des ingrédients & le savoir-faire dans chaque bouchée. L'atmosphère est chaleureuse, accueillante & donne envie de revenir encore & encore. C'est définitivement mon adresse préférée pour savourer de vrais bons bagels !

Pour avoir essayé toutes les bageleries populaires… La qualité des produits (le saumon fumé le fromage à la crème les viandes) sont tous de qualité supérieurs… wow
Top bon j'ai pris le egg. Prix correct mais dommage fromage pas totalement fondu. & a l'intérieur il faisait un peu trop chaud & pas de terrasse mais ça reste ok.
I went in today to buy a dozen sesame bagels & was told I could only take six because they needed to'save them for other clients.' I was a client, standing at the counter ready to purchase, yet was forced to take plain & poppy seed instead-neither of which I enjoy. The bagels themselves are just average, & with so many better (& more reasonably priced) bagel shops in Montreal, I'll be going elsewhere moving forward.
Thanks to all the previous google reviews I found & tried out this bagel place. & I was happy I did as these bagels were heavenly!! The bagel shop is not that big & is located in a nondescript lane with hard to find parking. But the first bite into the bagel sandwich put all my doubts to rest. By far the freshest bagels & sandwich ingredients, super soft & flavourful. Every bite was better than the one before it. Coffee could have been better but again I didn't go there for their coffee.
Cute place for bagels in Griffintown. Bagels & sandwiches were delicious. More of a put-together kind of bagel place if you know what I mean. The staff was lovely. No AC so tough sitting inside on a hot day.
