Glen Spence has been producing excellent bagels made by hand. Always fresh, its bagels are cooked in a wood oven which gives them their signature flavor sought out by enthusiasts.
Reviewers consistently praise M.T.L. Bagel for fresh, warm, fluffy bagels with a wide variety of flavors and toppings and for creamy, flavorful homemade cream cheeses. Sesame is often the standout, but banana chocolate chip and cranberry coconut are also favorites, and many say the bagels make the best bagel sandwiches in town; some note that a visit is worth the drive and that the shop is a neighborhood staple with a great selection. A few comments mention occasional inconsistency in dough or service and the space being a bit tight for dine-in, but the staff are repeatedly described as friendly and welcoming, contributing to a warm, casual vibe that keeps customers coming back.
I order from here regularly on Uber Eats. I used to LOVE their delicious breakfast bagel sandwiches with an amazing swiss cheese pull that would brighten my morning. Then they slowly started cutting corners: First, they downgraded the cheese from premium swiss to orange cheddar. It sucks but it didn't completely ruin the sandwich. Then, they stopped making garlic & onion bagels. Ok, fine. The last straw: they are now using Miracle Whip instead of mayo. They have adopted the greedy billionaire model of making everything worse & charging you the same price or more for lower quality. I'm done. I hope it was worth losing a regular customer to save maybe 50 cents.
Such great bagels, & don't even get me started on the cheese bagels. But one thing that always stand out to me is the great service. Everyone who works there seems to really like their job, they are always happy & smiling.

I can't say enough about this place. Great service. Delicious food. Honestly, it was THE best breakfast sandwich I have ever had in my life. I had egg, cheddar cheese, & smoked turkey on an all-around everything bagel. The bagel was fresh. The egg was cooked to perfection. The cheese melted perfectly. The turkey was perfectly smoked & mouthwatering. Delicious. A must visit if you're in the area.
We were visiting from the States. Very kind staff. Super professional. I had a spicy all around breakfast sandwich & hubby had a cranberry coconut bagel with cream cheese. Honestly, THE best breakfast sandwich I have ever had in my life!!! Please go there if you're in the area.
Friendly staff. Consistently good food. Always fresh. They sell & serve a wide variety of custom cream cheese like smoked salmon & one of my faves, lemon cream cheese. They have a $4 bagel cream cheese & coffee special every morning before noon! I get mine with Swiss, melted!
Very delicious! The first day I bought a whole bag of sesame Bagel & Salmon cream cheese. They tease so good & make me & my daughter finish so quickly, so I have to go back on the next day to buy more blueberry bagels. My tummy is so happy😃
I drive from Ottawa for their bagels & cream cheese, sometimes multiple times a week. They're that good! Everything is so good, buy my all time favorites are their spicy everything bagels, cheese bagels with sugar & olive cream cheese.
