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.

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.

Great taste.

But today morning, I ordered three bagels & three cups of coffee, & two bagels & coffee were served. I said that one bagel seems to be missing, & the staff seemed to recognize that. but it didn't come out for a long time.

So I said it again & it only came out. Even No Apology.. Am I sensitive?
