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.

I got "Le Coco" bagel & was very disappointed. No flavour at all. They put a slice of tomato, a piece of lettuce, egg & a spoon of mayonnaise. Not worth paying $10+ tax.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

So there's a lot of good things about this place. The service is really good, quick moving lines & very efficient. They do two different line ups for people purchasing sandwiches & those that are getting just a bag of bagels which manages time really well. We got the traditional bagels, all seasoned with smoked salmon & cream cheese & the "Joe Bagel" with ricotta & fig jam on a rosemary & sea salt bagel. The Joe Bagel was really different, the ricotta was light & creamy albeit a little messy to eat. The traditional was good too but lacked a flavour punch. It is also a pet peeve of mine when a bagel isn't cut down the centre & these weren't! Overall, I would say the vibes are definitely there. Is it worth waiting about 30 minutes in line for moderately good bagels? I would say it's subject to personal preference but if we are on the matter of amazing traditional bagels I would highly recommend Cafe Felice that uses St Viateur sesame bagels but have a ton more flavour.View more

Non-Canadians: They do not accept foreign cards! Bring cash. Delicious bagels! Get the iconic salmon 🍣🥯 bagel. I love that they serve it with a lemon. A perfect citrus touch 🍋💛 Expect a line. We waited about 20 minutes to get our bagels.View more

We went out of our way to get these bagels on our last day in Montreal. We ordered 4 sandwiches for takeout. The breakfast sandwiches were supposed to substitute the meat for cream cheese. Both were missing this & just came with dry bagels instead & the fried eggs had no seasoning. The bagels overall were tough & chewy even though we ate them within half hour of purchasing them. Not worth the hype or the lineup outside.View more

Best bagel I've ever had! Soft, chewy, not too dense. Had the "Le Steak on Ble Entier".View more

Ricotta with fig was too sweet, everything bagel was charred. Not for me. My husband liked the lox & cream cheese bagel.View more

Cash only bagel place with lots of options & English service/menus. Sandwich was really good. To note, it's not really a cafe where you can sit & enjoy a coffee. It has seating but they are turning the tables quick!View more

Great bagel sandwiches. One star off for being cash only despite being a large, busy cafeView more
Vanessa
Grosse déception... Nous n'avons rien trouvé d'extraordinaire dans les bagels de cet endroit, au contraire, ils étaient durs & fins. La garniture était bonne. Je ne comprends pas le buzz.View more

Ca semble être le lieu incontournable pour manger des Bagels à Montréal. On les voit fabriqués sur place. La file est longue car le lieu est très populaire, mais l'attente en vaut la chandelle: les bagels sont délicieux!View more

Très bon bagels, le service est rapide mais il y a souvent la queue. Attention, ils ne prennent que le cash ou les cartes de débit (pas de crédit & pas de cartes internationales)View more

AMAZING bagels 💜🥯☕️ absolutely worth the wait! The line moves quickly & theres indoor & outdoor seating; you can also get takeaway & eat on the street thats closed to traffic in the summer. Id recommend the salmon spread instead of cream cheese, & be sure to take away a few bagels on your way out! No gf options but they do have vegan cream cheese & sandwich options.View more
