Montreal is internationally recognized for its many festivals, its nightlife, its poutine and especially its bagels. Many a tourist has planned a stop at the renowned St-Viateur Bagel because of its impeccable reputation, both here and abroad, for having some of the best-tasting bagels around.
Whether it's a plain, cinnamon or sesame seed bagel served with cream cheese, butter or on its own hot out of the oven, this round roll with a hole is a tasty delight for both young and old.
Ce sont VRAIMENT les meilleurs bagels à Montréal...Et ceci résume très bien pourquoi ils sont très reconnus, même à l'extérieur de Montréal! Vaut le détour!
St. Viateur Bagel may not be a restaurant, but there’s nothing stopping you from picking up a bag of freshly baked bagels with something to spread on them (if necessary), whatever the time of day or night. The place never closes, and probably never will either, we hope!
The legendary Saint-Viateur Bagel Bakery needs no introduction; its homemade bagels baked in a wood-burning oven have been setting the standard since 1957. Its famous recipes and techniques come from Eastern Europe. Emblematic of the metropolis, the place attracts many tourists and even celebrities.
If you’re still having the Montreal bagel versus the New York bagel debate, stop at the St-Viateur Bagel & Café on Mont-Royal, and it will all be settled once you have a bite of one of their bagel sandwiches. We recommend the traditional smoked salmon and cream cheese bagel as well as the À la Coque Deluxe: omelette, grilled ham, cheese, lettuce and tomato with pesto or mayo.
