Old Bagel House is a hidden gem and a true neighborhood staple. I love places where you can just grab a really good breakfast and go -- and this one nails that vibe perfectly. It has a traditional, homemade feel that makes it stand out from chain spots. The bagel breakfasts and knishes are incredibly satisfying -- fresh, hearty, and full of flavor. It's the kind of spot that quietly becomes part of your routine. If they ever added an espresso machine, it would take things to the next level, but even as it stands, this place is one of my all-time favourites. Highly recommend it if you're in the area and want something authentic and quick. read more

Walked by and hubby got bagels and cream cheese to take home. He said they have Molly B's gf bagels and Humble Seedz vegan cream cheese. I will report back on the gf bagels once I try them but I love the vegan cream cheese. My fam loved the regular bagels and regular cream cheese. read more

Go here. If you are anywhere near Mississauga / Port Credit or Toronto, go here. The Montréal style bagels we had here were delicious. The owner apparently came from Montréal and really is known from great Montréal style bagels - we were not disappointed. Bagels were slightly smoky, which pared well with the lox / cream cheese that most of us had. The "everything" bagel was the best, but all varieties were tasty. They make them on site, and you can tell. Staff were super friendly, especially for how busy they were early on a Sunday morning. People just kept coming in - in the 30 minutes we were there, we saw at least 10-20 more folks meander in and get breakfast. Totally worth it! Made us want to explore this genre more - will let you all know tomorrow after we hit another place in Montréal, but we were all greatly impressed! Would DEFINITELY return! read more

This is the first time that we have been to The Old Bagel House. We have been wanted fresh bagels that day and there are not that many options in Mississauga, so we thought we would give this place a try. We arrived at about 9:15 AM on a Saturday. There were a few tables that were occupied and a person completing his order. We noticed that they were also pulling fresh bagels out of their wood fire oven. We decided to order a dozen bagels, 6 onion and 6 everything. There was also a selection of cream cheese available for purchase by the gram, so we decided to add 100 g of the Herb and Garlic Cream Cheese and 100 g of the Chives Cream Cheese to the order. After placing our order, it was assembled quickly. When we arrived at home, the bagels were still warm, so we started eating them immediately. In addition to being warm, they were nice and chewy yet dense. They were also sweet on the inside and a bit salty on the outside. The cream cheeses were also very good, seemed to be home made as they were softer and creamer than the ones found in a grocery store. So, I'm not an expert in Montreal-style bagels, but these seem to be the real deal. The only complaint is the lack of parking since you must find a metered parking spot on the street, but I will still return. read more

I was introduced to Montreal-style bagel a few months ago when I visited Montreal. When a friend in Port Credit told us that there is a Montreal bagel shop nearby, we decided to get breakfast there. Montreal style is denser, less fluffy, and sweeter than New York style, which is what most of us are used to. Our favorite here is the big bagel twister, which is a gigantic bagel made with twisted dough looped into a ring. They have cute names for the other varieties: Simply Sesame, Only Onion, Proud Poppy, Exciting Everything... They also have cheese bagels shaped like a horseshoe, and they can do sandwiches too, but personally I don't like them too much, the sweetness feels weird with savory stuff, and takes some getting used to. It's a small place with about 4 tables, should you want to eat in. read more

I am a native Montrealer and grew up with Montreal Bagels from St.-Viateur and Real Bagel. The Old Bagel House claims that they have experience working at those two as well as the famous Fairmount Bagels and as soon as I tasted one of their poppy seed bagels, I knew that they were telling the truth. I was standing outside in late June but if I closed my eyes, I could've been standing outside of St.-Viateurs in Monkland Village. Like any self-respecting Montrealer, I just ate it as-is because you don't mess with perfection! It was a perfect taste of home! read more

So so so this place definitely lives up to its ratings!I have been wanting to try this place for a while and decided to go on a weekday around 11am.I am so used to the New York style bagel so was desperately wanting to try Montreal style which are slightly smaller, sweeter and denser, and are always baked in a wood-fire oven. As I walk in i'm the only customer in the shop and was well taken care of by the lady at the front.She was friendly and briefed me with the selection of bagels and cream cheeses. As a savory lover I ordered my all time fav the Lox bagel(of course toasted).It was def a 9, perfectly toasted and not overly lathered with cream cheese it was topped with good quality capers and red onions.I was in food heaven. There is a large selection of cream cheeses and bagels along with more savory goodies.I to-goed some sun dried cream cheese and chicken liver spread both were fantastic with plain bagels.They also keep mini bagels which are great for someone like me who has a small appetite. Overall the service was great, the place is very neat and clean.There is seating for about 15/18 ppl I would say.There is also a huge selection of sodas/pops/drink.There is plenty of metered parking next to them which is nice for Lake Shore. I'M COMING BACK FOR MORE! read more

Good morning Yelpers! I'm back at it, back at it again in the lovely community of Hurontario and Lakeshore. After my doctor's appointment... got that hungry feeling haha. So you know, I scoot my way down and saw The Bagel House. Thought I'd check it out and damn I love it. It's cute and small. Small little place that's warm and inviting to sit and have some good carbs and a lovely coffee with friends. However there isn't a lot of space okay? I got a lovely bagel with roast beef. With this option you can use any type of bagel. I opted for an everything bagel with toast beef. I believe they use sea salt which gave it a lovey flavour, plus pepper, plus mayo, lettuce and tomatoes. The beef taste hella good for me. I think next time I'd opt out the tomato because it's acidity is too powerful and you couldn't taste the beef much with it. Also, lay low on the mayo. I also got half a dozen bagels for home cause you know my family loves them carbs. I got Pumpernickel, Onion, Poppyseed and a Multigrain bagel without sugar and low cholesterol. I don't think they have vegan friendly products but they do have vegetarian options. On my way back home I could not help but munch on one of the bagels. I tried the Pumpernickels and it tasted real good, fresh, and it had that dark sweet savoury rye flavour to it which I like. The cost for the bagel with toast beef was $6.49 and half a dozen bagels I think was $6.99. Not bad. I'd definitely return if I'm in the area for a morning fix. Service was fair. Slow but that's because there was only one lovely woman at the front counter. Parking is side road if you decide to drive here. read more

While driving home couldn't resist the urge to try the still warm Montreal bagels! They have a sweet taste and kinda remind me of a pretzel! Sooooo delicious!!! We ordered 2 dozen.. won't last 2 days in my house. Also ordered Latkas, kishka and samosas! Because why not!? Was a steady flow of people when we went in. A lot of single people ordering bagels to have inside to eat. Pretty small place. Clean. 17$ for 2 dozen read more

Old Bagel House - Bagels Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

I've had this place in my bookmarks for quite some time ever since I've read the review of a fellow Yelper (Barbara D) and seen her photos. While I'm not that far from Port Credit, I'm not exactly nearby either. The fact that bagels I consider to be a morning thing I would most likely just want to eat them in the morning so unless I'm going on a day off or a weekend I'm most likely going to go all the way to Port Credit for a bagel. I did however just go yesterday and I'm glad I did. Bagels can be found so easily in southern Ontario. Why? Well it's one of those things Tim Horton's sells. You know that place that's as ubiquitous as the Canadian flag? Well Bagel House isn't Tim Horton's, thankfully. There are a variety of choices here and they look far more appealing than anything I've ever seen at a Tim's. They can serve their bagels as sandwiches and put things inside such as smoked meat, lox or basically other things that Tim's just doesn't have. That in itself is a big plus. Now you can get to the variety of cream cheese that they have. I don't know where they get it from but it kind of reminds me of the long gone Daiters that used to be on Bathurst south of Wilson. Choices of bagels, choices of cream cheese and choices of insides. In all of it I just wanted a bagel and lox. I had asked for that and was asked if I also wanted onions and capers. That would be a yes! My wife just wanted a pumpernickel with plain cream cheese and cucumbers. For a small and light breakfast, this was exactly what I was in the mood for. A fresh, tasty onion bagel and lox. The inside is rather small in that there's only 4 x 2 person tables. While there's a couple large, stocked cold drinks fridges, you'll need to excuse yourself to gain access to them if people are sitting at the tables. For the two bagel sandwiches and two drinks the breakfast came out to under 15 bucks for both of us. The parking along this stretch of Lakeshore is in fact free before 10am. This place opens early (7am) so you should be able to snag free parking nearby otherwise there's pay stations on the sidewalk. read more

Definitely the best bagels around. Great staff too. Sometimes you have to get there early as they may run out of a particular flavour. Really glad they are in Port Credit. But they are so good I would travel to pick them up. As close to a Montreal bagel as you can get in the GTA. read more

This is a tiny little place in Port Credit. My mom recommended it so we went this morning. They have a pretty extensive menu. I ordered the cream cheese with lox on a sesame seed bagel with capers and red onions. So yummy! I loved it. The bagels taste the same as the ones I've ordered from Montreal. Chewy and sweet and so tasty. Totally coming back! read more

I really enjoyed this place! For me, probably the best bagels in Mississauga and I'll definitely be coming back for more. A great feature in the Port Credit neighbourhood. First, parking. We visited on a Saturday morning and it was surprisingly pretty busy. Street parking in front of this place on a Saturday is free, and we were able to snag a spot. Second, the environment. The Bagel House isn't fancy - think diner-esque, with 4 plain tables, limited spacing. But it's very clean, and the bagels, pastries, various cream cheese options, are nicely organized and laid out. While it isn't a fancy shmancy Starbucks, you still feel comfortable enough to settle in and grab a bite. Third, the bagels. Yum. So, my personal preference: I prefer Montreal-style bagels over New York-style bagels. I love the thinner, denser texture and hint of sweetness - I like how it isn't as dough-y and thick and chewy (I know it's all in my head, but it makes me feel like I'm not eating something as carb-y). Here, we ordered: a) an Everything Bagel with Chive Cream Cheese and b) a Cheddar Chocolate Bagel - this was shaped like a horseshoe and stuffed with cheese and chocolate. How good does that sound, right?! It was flaky and crispy, sweet and delicious. A really nice morning treat! The Everything bagel was pretty much everything I was hoping and expecting it would be. Salty and sweet, generous toppings, and the great Montreal-style texture. Prices were also quite reasonable - I'll definitely be back! For our two bagels, we paid around $5.00. read more

Ever since I saw the sign for this place opening soon I've been excited for it to open. As a rabid fan of Fairmount Bagels in Montreal, I've been hoping for a legit wood oven bagel shop to open in this area and finally it has arrived. My girlfriend bought some coming home from work the other day but I wanted to experience it myself so we went back again this morning. The place: It's a small shop and most of the area is eaten up by the baking area & counters. There is four or five small tables for two as a seating area but this is not that comfortable given the amount of people waiting for service (the shop was plenty busy when we arrived at around 10am on a Saturday during the Jazz festival). Thankfully they also have a few tables outside so you can enjoy the beautiful streets of Port Credit. The back wall is full of drink coolers which even contain items like jars of pickles & cheeses to take home. There are a couple display areas showing off their custom flavored cream cheeses & desserts and of course the main containers for their bagel selection. The service: Despite a lot of foot traffic they were able to move customers along fast as you would expect. The bagel sandwich production was snappy and customers were taken care of quickly. The bagels we wanted (onion) were not available so the manager offered us some free coffee while we waited for the next batch and managed to up-sell us on some breakfast sandwiches for the wait. The food: The breakfast sandwiches came first. My selection was a sesame seed bagel with egg/cheese & bacon (at a 3.99 tag). The egg is cooked in a microwave with a dish that shapes it to the bagel and despite being nuked the egg was quite nice. Topped with some fresh ground pepper this is one of the best options I can think of for a good breakfast sandwich. They have other offerings of standard lunch sandwiches including ham, roast beef and of course Montreal style smoked meat. After the sandwiches were finished I was called up to select my mixed bagels. So far we have sampled the pumpernickel, onion & everything bagels. There are perfectly textured, not too hard or doughy and the flavors are lovely. The onion is a must-try and there is no wonder this one is constantly sold out! I will most certainly be back here often. Excellent bagel shop. read more

Old Bagel House - White tuna bagel - Bagels Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

Figured I'd visit this place before going to work today (yes on a Sunday..ugh), to see what all the fuss was about for "Montreal bagels". From what I hear, they are supposed to be heavenly. So my expectations were quite high. Were they met? No. But did I like the place? Yes. It's a small shop in the Port Credit village and they have about 10 different types of bagels that are all cooked in a wood oven as opposed to a normal oven. I had a breakfast bagel with bacon on an everything bagel and coffee for 6.50. The bagel itself was crispy/toasty on the outside and soft on the inside. I can say that I enjoyed it, but my expectations were much higher. I would say that this place for bagel shops in the GTA is more of a 4/5 for quality, where as Bagel Stop is 3/5 and What-A-Bagel is 4/5. So it's a decent choice for fresh bagels if you're in Mississauga, but not worth a long drive from anywhere else. read more

Authentic Montreal style bagels. Crispy on the outside and moist in the inside. Really good flavor of the dough. I had the lox and cream cheese bagel ( fresh salmon, the capers were not too briny and plain cream cheese had good flavor) it was the best one I've had so far. Definitely recommend! read more

Old Bagel House - Delicious lox and cream cheese on everything bagel - Bagels Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

I went here today and picked up 6 bagels: 2 plain,2 onion and 2 raisin. I just had the onion bagel and it's the best bagel I've ever had! It was loaded with onions I had it with cream cheese and it was amazing I would recommend this to any bagel lover. My daughter had a plain bagel with butter and she complained that it was it wasn't chewy enough. I don't like gummy bagels so this is perfect for me, but if you were looking for a chewy Tim Hortins style bagel this isn't it. The bagels are fresh and home made in a stone oven they taste great and at $5 for 6 bagels a great deal. read more

Best bagels in the 905 west. Finally a great place for real Montreal style bagels made by a Montrealer expat. The aroma of the bagels and wood oven is intoxicating. I have tried all of their bagels but I'm partial to poppyseed. The lox and bagel comes with a generous amount of smoke salmon and cream cheese and the staff is careful to place the capers and onions on so they won't fall off. Wow a perfect bite. Definitely check this place out - you will never eat a bagel from Tim Horton's again. read more

The bagels are very good. I don't like that they charge more for anything other than plain however. They have a slight sweetness, which I also quite enjoy! They keep great in the freezer too. I had one in store. The cream cheese was pretty awful.... Do not waste your money on it. read more

A very solid option for a quick bite if you're in a rush. I checked this place out again after deciding to go on a quick lunch break during work. Because I wasn't too keen on waiting around for the Mentor College kids to clear out of the nearby pizza place and the other restaurants were sit-in venues, I made Bagel House my destination and I'm glad I did. Ended up getting an egg salad sandwich and a apple strudel. The biggest thing I appreciate about this place is that they have their format down pat. It's not the flashiest place or even the biggest (there isn't much room to sit), but the owner knows his clientele well and keeps chit-chat to a minimum. You pick what you want and he toils away for a couple minutes making magic before presenting your sandwich to you in a brown paper bag. The extra napkins and fork (to eat the remaining egg salad) was a nice touch and didn't go unappreciated. Lots of choices here - everything from standards like pumpernickel and whole wheat to more "exotic" fare like Nutella croissants and dessert bagels. There's even several types of cream cheese you can buy for home, though I admit that I'm a Philadelphia loyalist and didn't see the need to spring for a package. Everything was great across the board. My sandwich was packed full of egg, making it a bit of a messy proposition, but I managed all the same. The strudel was also good, although I was expecting a bit more "wow factor" to the whole thing. Regardless, Bagel House was a very enjoyable lunch option and a place I'll likely be going back to whenever I need a change of pace or a quick bite. Well-recommended. read more

The best bagels in town. You can go for walk by port credit, enjoy coffee and a bagel! I usually get the egg sandwich style bagel, so I cannot comment on the smoked meat or salmon options. I would also recommend buying these bagels in bulk and making a sandwich at home with your own ingredients. It is a small store so there is very little space to sit, its better as a take out option. read more

There were alot of choices and flavours. So glad we stumbled upon this place. Everything was freshly made and tasted great! I got the everything bagel with some cheddar cheese and tomatoes. My husband tried a bagel with the jalapeno cream cheese and also tried their vegetarian patty in another one. Would definitely go back to try other flavours of cream cheese. The prices were decent as well read more

Our "go to" spot for amazingly delicious fresh daily bagels is The Bagel House. We are hooked on their "Everything" Bagel as loaded with a wonderful seed assortment and toast beautifully. Love that they brown bag the bagels and provide you with a alternate bag and tie to keep fresh for use. Great assortment of bagel toppings and more at this little diamond in the rough on the Lakeshore in Port Credit. read more

Bringing authentic Montreal-style bagels to Toronto. I have always passed by this location on my way to school and never had any interest to stop because of the awful signage. I learned an important lesson - Never judge a restaurant by it's signage. Over the weekend, I was lucky enough to try one of their sandwiches at the Canada's Baking and Sweets Show. I was very impressed with the variety of toppings they had to make it a sandwich. (Ham, Salmon, Bacon, Turkey, Cream Cheese and more). - Whatever you're craving, they can create. Their bagels are made using simple ingredients - water, flour, sugar, eggs, and oil (No Shortening). They are hand-rolled and boiled in honey water to provide a crunchy sweet exterior and baked in a wood oven fuelled by maple. They are not the big, thick traditional bagels everyone is used to so be prepared for a surprise. read more

Great fresh bagels in port credit! Made on an old fashion wood oven. The bagels are always freshly made in the morning. The plain bagels are my favourite toaster with butter. The staff is pleasant enough but bagels are great you fan taste the freshness totally worth the cost. read more

I first found about this place when I had to seek refuge from the heavy showers due to the flood in 2013. The place is quite nice, it is a little small but if you want to eat inside you'll always have a place to sit. They offer many varieties of bagels: Only Onion, Exciting Everything, and Simply Sesame are some of the offerings. The bagels have a nice texture to them, I prefer them over Tim Hortons because they are less chewy and are obviously never frozen. Solely comparing them to other bagel places and Montreal style bagels; I find these the best as I feel they've mastered what a Montreal style bagel should be like. They have many spreads to choose from, they have Cream Cheese in an assortment of flavours or if you prefer butter they have that. They also offer sandwiches made with an egg and some assortments of cold cuts or bacon. I've never had them myself but I can say they are popular because customers are always ordering them when I'm there. Service is also okay, not the best but okay. I definitely feel they are worth the drive, I live in North Mississauga and drive here every week! The only hiccup I've had was when I once found a nail in my bag of bagels. I know that sounds kind of serious but I clearly noticed it when I got home and took it out. It never penetrated any of the bagels, so it was okay. read more

I just came back from Montreal with only three bagels left which my family devoured. I decided to get some more Montreal bagels from a local source. I can tell you the bagels are very different. The bagels from Montreal's St-Viateur were firm and full of sesame seeds like a true Montreal bagel should be. The bagel from The Bagel House was fluffy and was only partly covered in sesame seeds. The disappointment was in the texture of the bagel. The Bagel House bagel tasted like a bagel you buy at your local supermarket. I've had The Bagel House bagels before and the texture was not quite the same as it was a couple years ago. A true disappointment! read more

Ok, I agree with the fact that these are not Ottawa's bagel. BUT the flavour is great, the portions are generous and the price / what you get ratio is very high, excellent value for what you get. The service is very friendly and fast, the store is open from 7am and is not closed until 10 pm every single day! that gives you an extended range in case of a bad bagel craving! I would give them 4 stars but the price and convenience have them the extra star! Keep to good job and try to get that chewy Ottawa flavour! read more

Since relocating from Montreal to the GTA, I have sorely missed my favorite St.Viateur bagels. So I decided to sample the fare at The Bagel House yesterday. I have to admit that I was disappointed with the bagels both in taste and texture. I sampled the sesame and the poppy seed bagels and they basically tasted like a regular bagel. When I have St.Viateur bagels in my car, I can smell the aroma of toasted sesame and something freshly baked. I thought to myself that it is odd that I could not smell anything from The Bagel House bagels as I drove home. I even toasted the bagels in an attempt to recreate the timeless crunchy texture with the chewy center. But alas, this did not happen as the taste did not change after toasting it. I had no issues with the service at all, I was served promptly and with courtesy. The location is small and cozy. I will try again at a later date, but I will stick to having my bagels shipped in from St.Viateur whenever I need a Montreal style bagel fix. read more

Bagels were good, that's not a question. They're full of flavour. I would however recommend grabbing bagels to go and making your own sandwiches/creations at home. The sandwiches to order are slightly overpriced and could easily be made a home with a little effort. The bagels by the dozen are not overpriced. I would strongly recommend the onion bagel (yum) and multigrain. Everything bagel the hubby says was okay. The pumpernickel in my opinion had too strong of an anise taste. We have yet to try the cinnamon, poppy, fennel, poppy, or whole wheat. We'll be back, that's for sure, but just for take home bagels. read more

It pains me to write this because I love the original location but this one just isn't up to par. I've been a few times and at first is was passable but my last trip was terrible. The breakfast sandwich was gross. Overcooked microwaved egg, a piece of bacon the size of dime and mayo oozing out the side (on bacon and egg?). The bagel was even stale. I won't be going back to the port credit location. read more

Closest thing to Montreal-esque bagels in the GTA. Had the lox and cream cheese on an everything bagel yesterday. Still dreaming about it today. Bagels have that lovely honey water crust and good chew. Not that shoddy gummy quality that Tim's bagels have. Only negative thing to note is that the drinks are overpriced. read more

Pretty good bagels here. I used to live between the Fairmont and St. Viateur in Montreal so I am a bit of snob. These bagels really surprised me with their texture and flavour...really good.
