Info & Location
Since 1957, St-Viateur Bagel has been a central part of the culture and daily life of Montreal. Its legendary landmark bagel shop operates 24/7 and sells over 1,000 dozen bagels a day. St-Viateur Bagel was founded by Myer Lewkowicz who brought his now famous recipe from Eastern Europe. The art of bagel making means hand rolling each one and baking them in a wood-burning oven. The current owner, Joe Morena, with over 45 years of experience in the bagel business, ensures that the traditions at St-Viateur Bagel continue to be respected. Over half a century, this family business has grown to include 4 bakeries and 2 Bagel Cafés in Montreal. Come and visit us soon or order online today. St-Viateur Bagel & Café Mont-Royal is located in the bustling "Plateau". The avenue is lined with trendy cafés, restaurants and specialty food stores, which contribute to the district's European flair. The café menu offers a number of bagel sandwiches, salads, and a wide variety of specialty coffees.

Classic Montreal bagels didn't disappoint. Super tasty, fresh bagels made in house. Fast, friendly service. Price is a bit expensive but I think it's worth it. Their merch is cool.View more

There is a line at the door, but it moves fast. The staff are friendly & direct everyone to keep the flow moving. The bagels are fresh & flavourful, just on their own. Can add to make a sandwich based on your preference. We tried the all-dressed with cream cheese, the traditional on sesame & the rosemary & salt. A stop to try if you're in Montreal & take some to go as well !View more

During our trip to Montréal, we stopped by St-Viateur Bagel & had an amazing experience! These weren't the typical oversized bagels you find elsewhere - they were the perfect size, just right for a hearty but not overwhelming sandwich. Every bagel was incredibly fresh, soft, & packed with flavor. Each sandwich had its own personality, from the turkey & bacon to the grilled chicken with pesto, & even a veggie one with creamy cheese - all so tasty! We loved them so much that we ordered extras to take home for the kids to enjoy later. St-Viateur really lived up to its reputation - fresh, delicious, & a must-visit if you're in Montréal!View more

I have to admit my visit here the other day while good was slightly disappointing. I got a half dozen sea salt & rosemary bagels which are absolutely delicious (though I expected chunks of salt on the top like I have got at other premium bagel places), however if I had to wager a guess these were made the previous day. I ordered quite early in the morning & the bagels were not even warm & didn't seem very fresh. The service was good, store was cute but sceptical if those bagels were made the day before & for the price that is unacceptable if the caseView more

St-Viateur Bagel is a cozy spot with friendly, kind employees who create a welcoming atmosphere. The bagels are fresh, flavorful, & perfectly baked-truly some of the best I've had. A great place to enjoy a delicious bagel, genuine service.View more

I was just so shocked when I looked at the line in front of the restaurant. I waited nearly an hour to get the bagel but when I had the first bite, I knew exactly why it is so famous. I got the all dressed bagel but sesame bagel is one of the most popular bagels. From what I know, this bagel place is one of the oldest in town & serves fresh bagels. This place is worth the hype. Must visit when you go to Montreal.View more

Came here as a recommendation to compare to see how they compare to NY bagels. Place was super cute & everyone was really nice. I had a cinnamon raisin bagel. It was crispy & fresh but less fluffy than NY. Glad I went there for the experience though!View more

This place was phenomenal. The bagels are super fresh & so much variety. We travelled in from downtown Montreal to come try these bagels & it was worth the time. Highly recommend this place.View more

Must try breakfast if you're in Montreal! They have a huge variety on bagels, lots of combinations, & everything is super fresh. We tried a few different types, really depends on what you prefer, but can't go wrong with anything here. Try out the maple bagel with jam😮💨👌The line moved fast, & service was very attentive, making sure we got a good table, cleaning it for us, bringing our food/drinks, & asking how it was.View more

The traditional sandwich is tasteless. Of all the places I've had a bagel lox this is by far the worst. I came here expecting a wow & aside from maybe picking up some fresh bagels I'd never eat their version of a sandwich again.View more

Being from Texas, of course, this was at the top of my Montreal list. The "Traditional" did not disappoint. Fresh bagel with salmon & cream cheese. I seriously could have this almost every day.View more

Not only the bagels are fresh all the ingredient they use are fresh. Friendly staff. They only accept cash or debit. Parking was hard to find in the area.View more

Excellent bagels. Getting them fresh makes a difference. Seeing the oven & how they were flipping it was pretty neat too. Note that it's cash & debit only.View more

As a devoted acolyte to the divine altar of the bagel, I relish the opportunity to take the pilgrimage to St. Viateur Bagel & Café. This sacred journey culminates in the divine experience of savoring their heavenly bagels, where each bite is a taste of perfection. They emerge fresh from the traditional wood oven & warm not just my body but my spirit. There is no smell like that of the boulangerie, no taste like the sweet bagel, & no solace like a bag of warm bagels from St. Viateur.View more

Felt like the staff was more trying to get through their orders than actually putting some effort into their bagels. This huge chunk of onion was in my bagel not even the end of it being cut off where to root was attached. The cream cheese was only spread on one side which made it go everywhere from the amount they put in. Spread it on both sides in my opinion would easily resolve the huge mess that came with the bagel. Friendly staff! Everything was freshly made, you can see the bagels being made in front of you & put in their bagel oven so you know it's fresh. Huge line for an ok bagel. Also make sure you have Canadian cash or Canadian debit card only. They don't accept visas. 2023 surely with the amount of business this place is generating they can afford to pay for credit card service.View more

Ordered bagels set with customized flavors, & luckily the blueberry flavor just came out of the oven! So amazing the texture! Please try the fresh one if you get a chance! Even bought a jar of salmon sauce! So happy experience! Also the staff here are all friendly!View more

I must've gone outside of peak times (around 4pm) because I didn't have to wait at all to place my order & my bagel came out really fast. Only issue is that, probably because I came outside of peak hours, the bagel didn't feel very fresh. I ordered Le Coco & the bagel only had mayo on one side as opposed to both, which made it feel more dry. The filling weren't seasoned well/were lacking flavour or salt so I was a little underwhelmed. The bagel rotation during busy hours probably makes for fresher bagels so, although there's a longer wait, it's maybe worth sacrificing time for freshness. Service was nice. They do in fact only take Canadian debit or cash, which was no problem for me but just something to keep in mind.View more

Wow crazy good bagels. Fresh out of the wood oven & lots of options. A bit expensive for a small scoop of cream cheese (generic brand made), but the combination of the fresh bagel & cream cheese is unreal. A must try when in Montreal! Remember that this place doesn't take credit card, debit & cash only.View more

Amazing bagel. I love the bagel here the most. However, service & cleanliness that what deduct the overall rating. HOWEVER, do visit. I came here everytime I visit Montréal (which is very often. I tried all the bagel with all spread, well not gonna lie, all of them are good. Heads-up with the size of each sandwich, quite big. I hope this place has a better selection of drinks. Maybe a milkshake, fresh juice or better selection of coffee.View more
