Review Summary

Le Trou is widely regarded as a standout destination in Montreal for its fresh, crispy, and chewy bagels that frequently draw comparisons to the city's most famous institutions. Many patrons praise the delicious, high-quality ingredients used in their sandwich selection, highlighting the breakfast deluxe and smoked salmon options as favorites. While the atmosphere is generally described as warm and cozy with friendly service, some guests note that the shop can become uncomfortably hot due to the baking process and that seating is limited. Feedback regarding value and portion sizes is mixed, with some customers feeling that certain sandwiches are overpriced or lack sufficient toppings. Despite occasional inconsistencies in service speed or ingredient availability during busy hours, the overall sentiment remains positive, with many visitors considering it a must-visit local spot for an authentic bagel experience.

We were told we had to try Montreal bagels while we were there & this place didn't disappoint. We each got a bagel sandwich & they were great. The staff was super friendly & even gave us an extra couple of bagels to try...all super great. My husband really enjoyed the smoked salmon. Highly recommend!
