Review Summary

Le Trou is widely regarded as a fantastic spot for fresh, Montreal style bagels that feature a perfect balance of a crispy exterior and a chewy interior. Many visitors praise the high quality of the ingredients and the flavorful sandwich options, often comparing the bagels favorably to the most famous establishments in the city. The atmosphere is generally described as cozy and welcoming, with staff frequently noted for their friendliness and passion. While the majority of guests have a wonderful experience, some reviews mention inconsistencies regarding service speed, occasional limited availability of bagel flavors later in the day, and concerns about the value of portion sizes relative to price. Despite these mixed remarks about temperature in the small shop and occasional order errors, it remains a popular local destination for those seeking a delicious and authentic bagel experience.

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.

Qu'elle belle expérience ! Dès mon arrivée, j'ai été accueillie avec un grand sourire & une attention comme on n'en voit plus beaucoup. La jeune femme qui m'a servie a pris le temps de me poser plusieurs questions pour s'assurer que je commence ma visite de la meilleure façon possible. On sent vraiment qu'ils veulent bien faire & que le client compte.

J'ai beaucoup apprécié de savoir que les produits viennent du Québec - c'est si important pour moi de manger local. Mention spéciale pour le saumon du fumoir Saint-Antoine… un vrai régal !

Seul petit bémol : il faisait un peu chaud dans le magasin. En voyant les employés travailler dans cette chaleur, j'ai eu pitié d'eux… j'espère que ça pourra s'améliorer, car ils le méritent amplement.

Merci encore pour ce beau moment !

Service agréable, bon bagel.
Bagel marqué au Nutella n'est pas fait avec du Nutella! Ceci est une tromperie au consommateur! Révisez votre affichage!

Delicious bagels with a sandwich menu as well. Not much space for sitting if it's busy

Bagel frais & délicieux (testé à emporter seulement)
Service désastreux - ni aimable, ni serviable (j'y suis allée 3 fois avant de donner cet avis & toujours un très mauvais service, dommage)

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 bagel itself was great, but by 3pm the only option left was poppy seed. I found the base price of the bagel to be reasonable, but charging an extra $3 just for butter felt a bit excessive.

D'après moi, certainement le meilleur bagel à Montréal ! Moelleux & goûteux à souhait. Personnels gentils & souriants.

Absolutely delicious bagels! They make them right there in the shop. They are so tasty. Service was good too. It is kinda hot in there due to them making the bagels.
