My son had visited Montreal and loved this bagel bakery. So when he travelled with my husband and me to the city - he insited that we purchase bagels here. I am glad he did.

No place to sit and no cream cheese, just whole bagles to go. While perfectly fine, the bagels are npt your typical Montreal variety. Much closer to New York.

This bagel bakery is open 24 hours a day 7 days a week so you would figure the bagels must be good. They are excellent. We have been there twice in the last 4 days. The first time was a Saturday at 4 pm and there was a line of about 8 people ahead of us. The line went very... More

The bagels were warm and fresh. The line moved quickly. We liked our sesame and chocolate bagels so much that we went back half an hour later to try more. We were not disappointed. Had the poppy seed and onion ones next. Yum! Incredible that the shop is open 24/7. Guess you can have a craving for their bagels anytime... More

Along with St-Viateur, Fairmount really are the best bagels in Montreal. A must when in the area. The smell of fresh hot bagels is worth the trip alone.
