Depuis 1957, St-Viateur Bagel fait partie intégrante de la culture et de la vie quotidienne des Montréalais. La légendaire boulangerie de la rue St-Viateur, qui opère 24 heures par jour 7 jours sur 7, vend plus de 1,000 douzaines de bagels par jour.
Les avis décrivent St-Viateur Bagel comme une institution montréalaise, cuits sur feu de bois et offrant des bagels chauds, croustillants à l'extérieur et moelleux à l'intérieur, riches en saveur. La sélection couvre sésame, pavot, tout garni et d'autres classiques, et beaucoup soulignent le plaisir de voir les bagels sortir du four sous leurs yeux, une expérience mémorable. L'expérience est généralement axée sur l'emport, sans beaucoup de places pour s'asseoir, et le paiement en espèces uniquement à certains emplacements; les files peuvent être longues mais rapides à faire avancer. Dans l'ensemble, les bagels sont loués pour leur fraîcheur et leur qualité, faisant de St-Viateur Bagel une étape incontournable pour les Montréalais et les visiteurs, souvent considéré comme l'une des meilleures adresses de la ville malgré quelques remarques sur la variabilité.
A legendary bagel shop in Montreal, renowned for its hand-rolled, wood-fired bagels. Offers bagels with a perfect balance of chewiness & crispness, available in classic flavors like sesame, poppy, & everything. Definitely, a favorite for both locals & tourists. The shop's warm, inviting atmosphere & the sight of fresh bagels being made on-site make for a delightful visit. For an authentic Montreal bagel experience, St-Viateur Bagel is unparalleled.
There was a small line up but it goes pretty quick. For Montreal bagels lovers, this is a favourite, the bagels tasted good & firm as they're supposed to be. The store front is small & can get crowded especially at busy hours, however the service is excellent & they keep it moving along. I wish I was here when I did love bagels but not so much now. Still compared to bagels you get from grocery stores, these bagels are definitely way above in quality.
I've heard the hype surrounding St-Viateur bagels for years & although it was good, I can unfortunately say that I've had better. I'll start with the good things though, for instance the menu variety. I would recommend the Sesame Bagel without a doubt, easily the most reliable option & in my opinion a must-have. I've tried most of the flavors on the menu & another one that stood out was the Maple Apple. At the end of the day, there is enough variety to please everyone's preference. I would also consider this place as on option for large groups not only due to the menu variety but also for the cost-effective pricing. Taste-wise, for me, it did not live up to the hype. The overall quality was just okay: the taste was good but nothing more; the portion was quite small (big hole) & the texture was mediocre. For info, there was neither room for dine-in nor an outdoor area/terrace. Also, they only accept cash as a payment method. I reiterate that it was GOOD overall, however I expected GREAT considering the hype.
We always go here for our bagels when in Montreal. We went early in the morning on a weekend day (around 8am). We got a dozen bagels expecting them to be fresh, but the batch we got was cold. Bagels were soft, so not day-olds, but they were also not recently made. Warm, fresh bagels are the best! We gave one less star because they were not freshly made.
Délicieux pains à bagels, attention n'acceptent que le cash Il n'est pas vraiment possible de manger sur place mais il est possible de manger son Bagel dans le café d'à côté
