Small establishment. Very smokey inside, definitely smelled like bacon when I left. The client service was great. There was so many staff members there that the line up did not take long. Everyone was pleasant and patient wish was great. Everything was made fresh and they don't skimp out of ingredients. When in the area I would definitely come back again. read more

This is my favourite spot in Burlington; you can dine in, order bagel sandwiches for takeout or pick-up or order dozens of bagels to take home with you and believe me, it's worth it. It's has family-friendly vibes and is always packed with happy customers and the staff are very friendly and patient. The owner, Joe, is very friendly and spends time speaking with customers which goes a long way. They have so many great variety of bagels, freshly baked in-house and so many breakfast and lunch options. We tried "Smoked Salmon Bagel with Cream Cheese" and "Ham & Egg Bagel". Both of the were fresh and delicious. Would definitely go back to try more of their menu. read more

Easy 10/10 the bagels are loaded. Prices are a bit high but I've never seen another spot give you as much as this place, very nice workers too read more

On the first day that me and my girlfriend arrived to Toronto she wanted to head over to Niagara Falls and as we made our way down there, we had to get breakfast as we had arrived from a redeye flight with that being said she wanted a bagel on the way down to Niagara Falls like I said so we stopped and stumbled upon JC's hot bagels. When I tell you, this is one of the best bagels I've had in my life. I am not joking. I used to live in New York, so I know what a good bagel is and what a good bacon egg and cheese is supposed to taste like this right here was up to par and met every single one of my expectations. The place itself is very nice and classic looking the people working there are very nice and get the order out immediately as you order it and they're making it fresh for you. All in all great experience and I will be back. Setting - 10 / 10 Food - 10 / 10 Service - 10 / 10 Total - read more

I read about this place on Blogto and I was fascinated about it. I wasn't sure why people rave about a Bagel place and people mentioned long lineups sometimes. This got my curiosity. We went there for lunch not knowing what this place is about. The young lady asked me what I would like, I ordered Smoked Salmon. She asked me if I wanted cream cheese, I said is it free. She replied politely there is an extra cost, I said ok. I asked her for her advice on which cream cheese goes well with it. She suggested dill pickle cream cheese, I got all the veggies with it. When I picked it up, it weighed at least 3 lbs. We opened the box and it looked amazing. We took one bite and we were in heaven. It was a perfect balance with the dill pickle cream cheese and the smoked salmon along with the veggies. The bagel was so fresh and soft. I could have eaten 2 more. Normally I don't like dill pickle but now I am a fan. This is my favorite Bagel place. I was about to leave and I saw one of the owners. I told her the food is delicious. She asked me if it was my first time there. I said yes. I told her I came from Toronto to try her food because of what I read. She said since it was my first time there, she had to give me some bagels to take home. I have never received such amazing customer service from an owner. I was in shock, I had a big smile all day. I can see why people keep coming back to them. Thank you to all the staff and owners. You have made a great impression on me, that's for sure. read more

I ordered online because I assumed it would be busy on a Saturday morning. It was incredibly busy. I ordered around noon and it said pickup would be 12:30. When I got there, they weren't ready yet. By 12:50 I asked the cashier about the order and they explained they didn't have it. Then they said it was something about online ordering not getting printed. I didn't end up getting my order until about 1:15. When I did get my order, I enjoyed the egg and cheese sandwich I got. It was huge and well worth the money. The overall trip was a bummer because of the order situation but the food was good. read more

I was pleased to have breakfast here during my trip to Ontario. The staff was helpful "translating" my American breakfast desires (tobassco sauce, lots of ketchup, American cheese, etc.) to the Canadian equivalent for cheese, but they had all the rest of my desires, including everything bagels. I had the breakfast special $10.00 CAD) - bagel of choice, egg, bacon (they give a ton of bacon) and a large coffee or tea as you choose. The food was good and very filling. The shop is very busy and even the Regional Police come here. Seating is comfortable. I recommend this place. read more

I don't know why it's taken me so long to try this spot but I'm glad I finally did. I had my dog with me, so my friend actually went in to order for me so unfortunately I'm lacking that experience an opinion until I visit again (which I'm hoping is soon!). I ordered a breakfast bagel with egg bacon cheese and cream cheese on an everything bagel. I never used to think there was a difference between montreal bagels or...non...montreal bagels but JC's certainly set themselves aside from the MTL. To be honest, I don't think you can compare them so I refuse to choose which one is better. These were massive, and well packed in a plastic container instead of a paper bag - I appreciated this because it would have gone everywhere otherwise. I would 100% come back here to buy bagels to have at home or to try another wonderful sandwich. read more

We bought some great bagels here. Can't speak to the food or sandwiches but the bagel quality is great. Suggest you get there in the morning though as they sell out fast and for good reason. Location is a strip mall. So parking is easy. Weekends they sell out more quickly! read more

Delicious, fresh, legit bagels, bagel sandwiches. Very very friendly and warm service.

JC's Hot Bagels is decent for a neighbourhood bagel joint but also very overpriced. I had to grab quick lunch on my way to an errand and was craving a smoked salmon bagel. Google maps directed me to JC's Hot Bagels and it was my big mistake for not checking Yelp first. I ended up paying $46 dollars for four bagels that were very mediocre. The restaurant itself was very busy--given that it's the only bagel place in the vicinity (other than maybe Tim Hortons). The only exciting part of my experience was getting to choose from the different types of cream cheese. The dill cream cheese was especially good! The bagels are pretty good, soft and a bit chewy--just how they should be. Long story short, it was my only option for a smoked salmon bagel in the neighbourhood which seemed to briefly satisfy the craving. Was it worth it? Not exactly, but my options were very limited. read more

The best bagels. Whenever we visit Toronto we come straight here and I take a dozen home. They are delicious and soooo fresh! Toppings & lunchmeat is quality too. read more

I love coming here for breakfast at least a few times a month. Bagels are great. One of the best places for my fav poppy seed bagels. They are overpriced and do love to charge for basics like lettuce, cucumber, tomato. Things that you would normally assume would be included. Still, the bagels are amazing and I do enjoy coming here. Tried the coffee and didn't like it. read more

Pathetic Food! I tried the corned beef wrap and it had everything except corned beef. They would put just 3 or 4 thin slices of corned beef and "beef" (pun intended) the wrap up with tomatoes, onion and other stuff. Come on folks! I wanted to eat good meat and not some raw veggies. I am really disappointed by this place, guess this is in my 'never visit again' list now and I hope you can take a cue as well. read more

JC’s Hot Bagels - The meat forms 10℅ of the overall mass of your wrap or sandwich. I guess they should rename it and call it lean corn beef sandwich. - Bagels Near Me - Burlington, Ontario

There is a reason you ONLY have cinnamon and raisin left, it's an awful bagel. Closes at 3 and you only have cinnamon raisin at 150 pm, lazy and poor mgmt. Drove 25 minutes for that. read more

Great local bagel joint and reminds me of one close to my home where I grew up. Bagels are soft and chewy on the inside and nice and firm on the outside. When good weather hits, grabbing a coffee with a bagel while reading the paper is bliss. read more

JC’s Hot Bagels - Bacon and egg with cheddar on a plane bagel. - Bagels Near Me - Burlington, Ontario

If you're craving a bagel, you better head over to JC's! The BLT bagel is my go-to and the Cheddar & Herb bagel is delicious. There's also a great selection of flavoured cream cheeses to choose from if you're just looking for a bagel with cream cheese. Everything is reasonably priced and tastes delicious--you can even buy a dozen bagels to go. There's a good amount of seating inside and there are even a few small tables outside that you can sit at when the weather's nice. It's a great spot to catch up with friends, never too loud or crowded despite its popularity. read more

The best place to go for bagels but only when the right people are working. Otherwise the girls will just skimp on the cream cheese on your bagel and overcharge you. My step father and I came for two pineapple walnut cream cheese bagels and he barely got any! So sad :( read more

I usually come here to pick up some bagels for the road. They are great, and very filling. Love the bagels and they are priced well - Around $10 for 13 Check it out! read more

Really high quality bagels but customer service is horrible. I was cut off by the male cashier and was treated like shit. Don't go to JC's bagels unless you really love bagels cause being treated shit has to be worth it read more

Best bagel you will ever have in your life! Best thing to get- BLT on Cheddar & Herb bagel. They give you tons of bacon for what you pay.

They love the up sell on the cheese slices!! Ok if you don't know any better. The bagels are fresh but are not Montreal style but rather doughy and dense. I had the BLT on a poppyseed bagel for $5.69 plus tax. I was shocked when the lady serving me only put 2 ripped pieces of bacon on my sandwich, 2 small slices of tomato and a partial piece of lettuce. The bacon is kept warm in a soup dispenser and the strips are entangled. Staff just rips off a chunk so you don't even get a nice full slice of bacon. For this price, I would expect better attention to detail and a bit more bacon. Also they will ask you if you want cheese on your sandwich about 20x before you get to the cashier - they must be on a cheese commission program. And when the cashier asked if I did have cheese, which I said no, he still double checked with the staff. I guess my integrity can be called into question when there is a cheese slice involved. I did bring it to the attention of the owner who gave me a blank stare and didn't seem interested in my feedback. Will not go back ever again. Try Bagel House PS- the coffee is weak and overpriced. Get your food to go and grab a coffee from Tim's, 3 doors down in the same plaza. read more

Good bagels, poor staff. Went in there and one of the staff came off really rude with attitude, definitely not coming back.

We made a special trip to JC's Burlington on Friday the 12th and I was really disappointed. These are just bread buns with a hole and various toppings. No crunch. No sweet. Blech! Patrons have been hoodwinked into believing these are bagels. Better bagels are @ Fortinos (montreal style) JC's seem to be a version of NYC bagel...... OK.... but in MHO not a true bagel. read more

Place is in a strip mall. Ordered Vegetarian bagel with veggie cream cheese. It was ok but pricey for a $7.90 bagel sandwich. Service was ok. The pizza/ bruschetta bagel sandwich which appears on menu was not served anymore but still appears on the website and the store. read more
