St-Viateur Bagel is a well-known spot for authentic Montreal-style bagels. These bagels are smaller and flatter compared to New York-style bagels, with a subtle sweetness from honey in the dough. They are often served at room temperature and are popular for a quick breakfast on-the-go. Customers can buy half a dozen bagels in varieties like plain, everything, sesame, blueberry, onion, and rosemary sea salt. The bagels are hand-rolled and baked in a wood-fired oven, making them truly delicious. Visitors appreciate the friendly staff who ensure customers get fresh bagels straight out of the oven and enjoy watching the unique process of making bagels in a big fire kiln. The shop offers a variety of freshly made bagels, perfect for a quick stop. They also sell cream cheese and other toppings, all available for purchase.
Many recent visitors highlight the amazing bagel sandwiches that can be enjoyed with an assortment of bagels such as smoked meat, traditional, and WOW! bagels. The all dressed bagels are especially popular, with a crunchy exterior and soft, chewy inside, making them a must-try. Despite the long line, the service is quick, and staff are helpful and courteous, ensuring a fast-paced but pleasant experience. The location operates on a cash-only basis, with an ATM available in the shop, and has no seating inside, so many customers eat outside while juggling their bagels and cream cheese packets.
While some find the bagels can get hard and stale quickly and the shop can be crowded and expensive, the tradition of Montreal bagels is kept alive here. Overall, it remains a great place to buy several varieties of bagels and enjoy the authentic process of baking in a wood-fired oven. Visitors love the atmosphere, the freshly baked bagels, and the quick service, making it a top choice for a bagel on-the-go.
