Le Trou reçoit les éloges pour ses bagels frais, en particulier le bagel tout garni, avec une croûte croquante et un intérieur moelleux, et pour son ambiance conviviale et chaleureuse; le menu est décrit comme varié et souvent renouvelé, mais certains commentateurs trouvent les portions modestes et les prix un peu élevés par rapport aux garnitures, et remarquent que les bagels peuvent s'épuiser ou le service être lent à l'heure de pointe, bien que beaucoup s'accordent à dire que la qualité et le rapport qualité prix restent solides et que l'endroit donne l'impression d'un repère montréalais chaleureux à revisiter.
Love this little bagel joint. Fresh daily. Obsessed with the Everything Bagels. They're sandwiches are great! Love the atmosphere. Enjoy that they regularly add new items to the menu. I met Raphaelle in December & she was kind, inviting & goes above & beyond for her customers. She has great new & refreshing ideas & she is very passionate. I recommend this place 100%.
Good neighborhood bagels with that fresh, Montreal-style vibe - especially if you're grabbing them to go. The bagels I took home were really good later on, so we got to enjoy them for a bit longer.
That said, the menu is pretty limited, & I felt like the sandwiches were overpriced for what you get (tried the smoked salmon, breakfast deluxe & classic sesame & cream cheese). There wasn't enough toppings to justify the price, & by midday some key ingredients (like tomatoes) were already gone. Service can be a bit slow during busy times too, so be prepared for a wait if there's a line.
Overall solid bagels & a nice local spot (parking is a big plus!), but there's room for improvement in value & consistency of toppings/service.
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.
The bagel itself was fresh & tasted good, but the sandwich portion was really small - definitely not worth $10 for such a tiny meal. Also, the seating inside was uncomfortably hot, & it seemed like there was no air conditioning, so we had to eat outside. Overall, disappointing for the price.
The Bagels were ok. We had the'vegge' sandwich. It would have been so much better if the sandwich was seasoned!!! No salt, pepper or any kind of addition to flavor the sandwich. The cheese was piled in the center & promptly fell out when you started eating. Lost opportunity to make it tasty bite!
I went to the place due to its good ratings & they did not disappoint. They have a good selection of different bagels & sandwiches they can prepare. You can get meat or veggie options so that most people can eat here. If you like to stay inside or sit outside in the sun, they offer both. If you wanna walk a few meters you can also enjoy your food in the park nearby. Keep up the good work.

Ok, real review time.. I don't write many reviews but reading the insane posts here, I had to set the record straight.. The SESAME bagel is nowhere near a "montreal bagel".. I didn't try any of the "sandwiches" which may be fine, but we're talking bagels here.... Sticking with a pure montreal bagel, this doesn't cut it. Take the trip to st viateur, Fairmount, bagel ouest in ddo or even kettlemans in a pinch. This was the second time I got bagels after being dissapointed with texture & taste when they opened. They may look like our bagels but they have the insides of a new York bagel. I knew the second I picked one up. That's fine if you like that, but it ain't what us bagel purists are about.. Please don't consider the SESAME as a representation of a "real" montreal bagel.. It's a hybrid at best.. Also, strangely the only bagel shop I've been to, to give 12, & not 13 (bakers dozen) when you buy a dozen...
