Review Summary

St-Viateur Bagel offers a classic Montreal bagel experience with wood-fired bagels baked right in front of customers, a crisp exterior and chewy center, especially the sesame classic, and reviews praise fresh and hot bagels and quick in-and-out service. Some say the place is cash-only and takeaway focused, with lines that sometimes test patience, while others note the atmosphere can be minimal or unpretentious but the craft and aroma shine through. A few reviews mention bagels not always fresh or a bit hard, and a handful caution about the no seating policy, but most celebrate the iconic status, consistent quality, and the ability to watch the bagel making process. Many travelers say it is among the best bagels in Montreal, with others cherishing the experience enough to stock up for a long drive home or to share with family, and a note that a second store exists nearby to choose if something is not hot out of the oven. Overall, the place is seen as a must visit for wood-fired, freshly baked bagels, with devotion to the craft and a reliable, if sometimes crowded, performance.

Absolutely delicious bagels! Light, fluffy with a crunch, a mild sweetness which invokes a deep flavorful beady flavor - like standing in a wheat field.

Competes with NYC bagels - arguably one of the best I've ever eaten… (as a New Yorker, from Brooklyn… shhh they're gonna get mad at me.)

They only accept cash. With that out of the way, they do serve fresh bagels in different flavors & they all tasted great. Service was fast & efficient & they do have some souvenirs for sale too.

[review of my experience for this particular location] Simple store selling one item - MONTREAL-STYLE BAGELS :) This location only sells bagels so don't come here expecting sandwiches or drinks (go to the other locations). Bagels came out fresh - crispy exterior paired with a chewy interior. The sesame seeds on this bagel were deeply toasted, borderline charred, but this gave it an extra depth of flavor which we loved!! (we note other people might have felt this was burnt). Also ordered the maple apple bagel which was cold & a hard skip. Felt a bit stale & the maple flavor wasn't pronounced.
