Bagels Restaurants near Vancouver, BC

“Favourite spot for authentic, wood fired Montreal style bagels in Vancouver. I’ve visited Montreal and do feel that Siegel’s is authentic. Basically has legendary status amongst locals, a real family/community like feel. I moved to Vancouver this year from abroad and funnily enough, Siegel’s has become a staple for me especially when feeling home sick just because of the welcoming and friendly atmosphere (and of course the amazing bagels).“

“I love this bagel spot! The lady that runs this place is the sweetest. You’ll get the best classic breakfast bagel sandwich - my ideal combo is the breakfast bagel sandwich (with bacon and egg) and some butter on a cheddar jalepeno bagel. I could have it everyday! There’s so many different options to choose from as well. I’ve had the tuna bagel once and that was simple and good as well!“

“I saw the sign. Or rather, the signs. And not in an M. Night Shyamalan way. But in a Blue's Clues leading you to some yummy treasure kind of way. Suffice to say, if you know, you know. And if you don't, that's what the gigantic signs are for.

Buried in Corporate Wonderland aka Park Place, a home to high powered lawyers and financial advisors, is this unheard of novelty: A Japanese Bagel Shop. Let that sink in. You've probably never considered this combination before. It's about as unlikely as With Love Meghan winning an Emmy or Meghan Markle finding any semblance of success. But I digress.

Where the Sussex Duchess is in the midst of a free falling failure, Wa Bagel is ascending in the world of niche cafés. It boasts the title of being Vancouver's first Japanese Bagel and Sandwich Shop. And I'd also like to throw in that Wa Bagel is under the Aburi Umbrella of which Miku (the extravagant Waterfront Restaurant) is also a part of. No doubt, Aburi knows how to sell Japanese Culinary Luxury.

So it's no wonder this flagship store lives in the heart of Vancouver's financial district. It's a place where people have money to burn and won't bat an eye at the $16 savory bagels. And in fact, will probably smirk at the $4.75 regular bagels.

Wa Bagel usually boasts a lineup that leads out the front doors, has amazingly efficient and super friendly staff, and carries an eclectic, albeit limited, collection of goods such as imported drinks, shredded cheese, fruit gummies, pre-made oshi salmon sushi and cream cheeses.

The Japanese influence manifests in the form of exotic bagels like Ume Bacon, Sweet Potato and Black Sesame, Mochi Matcha, and Red Bean and Cream Cheese, just to name a few.

For you less adventurous connoisseurs, don't fret. Universally familiar bagels like Apple Cinnamon (sweet as pie), Garlic Butter and Cream Cheese (to die for), and Pacific (salmon with a Japanese Twist) also share this small exclusively curated menu.

For a quiet gem of a café where Tokyo meets New York, walk the plush carpeted floors and head down the shiny steps to your Bagel Heaven.“

“first time there today! so good!!!!! already shared on fb!hahhahaha“

“Visiting for the weekend. Shop was bright, clean and lots of seating. Latte was just right, not too sweet. Pistachio croissant was excellent. Most of all the young man who served us was eager, polite and enthusiastic. So many kinds of pastries and bagels with many kinds of toppings.“

“Always heard the hype about this place but have never tried it until today! Ordered the Rosemary rocksalt bagel with cream cheese and I was impressed. You could really taste the Rosemary it was very nice. And the cream cheese was applied generously“

“Mount Royal Bagel Factory is the best! Fresh, delicious bagels every time. But what really makes this place special are Golnaz and Mitra — they are truly the kindest and loveliest people. Always welcoming with a smile and amazing service. They make every visit such a positive experience. Highly recommend this place!“

“Always gotta grab a frozen blended mocha and a peanut butter chocolate dipped cookie! Best all around coffee shop 👌“

“There’s only 1 Tim Hortons. 👌👌“

“Rosemary Rocksalt bagels are a type of Montreal-style bagel known for their distinctive flavor and texture, made with a unique combination of rosemary and rock salt. They are boiled in honey water and then baked in a stone-hearth, open-flame oven, resulting in a crispy exterior and chewy interior. The Rosemary Rocksalt brand is particularly known for its rosemary and rock salt flavored bagel, which is a popular choice.

Rosemary Rocksalt is an evolution of Siegel's Bagels, another well-known Vancouver bagel establishment.

The bagels are fresh and delicious here.
I think I’ve tried everything on their menu so far 😬🙌

It’s also really nice that it’s across from the Starbucks too.“
