The most mind blowing bagel experience ever. Watch them make the bagels fresh in a wood fired oven. The flavor combinations are truly unique & delicious. Cranberry coconut. & carrots with pineapple are my favorites. My wife's breakfast sandwich was incredible. We took a dozen home.
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!
If you don't come here you're doing a disservice to yourself. You owe it to yourself to come here & not the other "famous" bagel shop. Discover some real local delicacy at MTL Bagel. Absolutely worth the trip out. The spicy all-dressed/everything bagel is amazing & you can find other fun flavors as well like banana & chocolate or cranberry & coconut. I literally come all the way over here from Chicago, just for these bagels. OMG
Love MTLbagel. My favorite Montreal bagel. Shiva & Shaahida are great & always so happy to see the customers. I also love coming to MTL Yardie for their lunch plates. Best fried chicken in Montreal.
We are visiting from the US & my husband said we have to try the bagels we picked here & they are amazing!! Best bagels I have ever had. Plus the staff was awesome!!
I'm visiting from the states & been here three times! The bagel here is fantastic & delicious! Make sure to ask Tommy! He makes the best Tuna bagel! Must try!!
