$10.99 for my everything bagel with lox Seems pricey but there was sufficient quantity (they are not skimping on the spread). tasted good I've seen pigeons creeping into their doorway (health code violation???) read more

It was our last day in Toronto and we wanted to satisfy our bagel cravings before leaving. We were still reminiscing about our time in Montreal a few days prior and Yelp brought us to The Bagel House. The worker was busy with the fire brick oven making fresh bagels so you know they are legit. I got salmon lox with a sesame bagel. Although it was pretty close I feel like it was missing a bit of the sweetness of the bagels I had in Montreal. I decided to buy 6 additional bagels (3 cinnamon raisin and 3 sesame) to take home to freeze so I can enjoy it later. They will pack it for you in a plastic freezer bag. I finally had them recently at home just with cream cheese and toasted, and they were still excellent! read more

Was recommended this bagel spot for some Montreal-esque bagels. I got the everything bagel with pesto dill cream cheese with lox, onion, and capers. Its a very old school bagel house - a counter to order and just a few tables. The bagel was really good, they stack the cream cheese and the its a small bagel but it is very filling. They have a lot of variety of cream cheese and bagel options. We also got the potato latke - it was warm and pretty good read more

This review was originally written on 2022-10-04, but forgot to post my review until now. I came back again on 2022-12-16. This restaurant sells Montreal-style (from Fairmount Bagels). I was curious if it were truly made the same way so I bought two bagels to try. They also sell many bagel cream cheese spreads. There are day-old bagels for $5.00 in a bag. Update 2022-12-16: The day-old bagels are in bigger bags now and cost more. There are all-day breakfast bagels, sandwiches, and salads. They make many other baked goods like turnovers, strudel, cream puffs, patties, knish, samosas, and latkes. There are also jams. The two bagels I had, Simply Sesame and Exciting Everything, had the same texture of Fairmount Bagels. It wasn't as fresh but that may be because I bought them at 17:00. The bagels at Fairmount Bagels constantly get purchased so you always get very fresh bagels. There are a few tables for indoor dining and a large screen TV. There are 5 locations in Toronto, with this one being the third. Many years ago, a baker from Montreal's Fairmount Bagels came to Toronto and started The Bagel House. He has since returned to Montreal and now owns Fairmount Bagels. There is free WiFi. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible. There are washrooms in the basement, hence not wheelchair accessible. There is paid neighbourhood street parking. Review 2022-134 read more

I've been meaning to try the Bagel House for a few months now since I started my internship back in January at an office nearby and finally got around to trying one of their breakfast sandwiches this week! I ordered the Turkey Breast Sandwich on a plain bagel, which was $6.75 and comes with an egg, cheese, turkey breast and mayo. It was delicious! A nice crunch from the toasted bagel, and each bite had a perfect mix of the egg, cheese and turkey breast. I didn't feel super heavy after eating it but it was also filling enough. The service was quick and while the store was a bit on the smaller side, they have a ton of menu options, including samosas, that I'm excited to come back and try when I'm in the area. read more

Outstanding Montreal style bagels at this 24 hour store. Featuring several varieties of bagels baked fresh. Day olds are available sometimes at a discounted price. I drive here from Bayview and Major Mackenzie......it's worth the drive! read more

I went there to get Montreal style bagels while visiting in Toronto. I got sesame and cinnamon raisins. The bagels were very good! This place was open for 24 hours, so I expected a brick oven was still on fire and there would be so many customers. I visited around 6pm and the brick oven was out of fire and there were no customers. And the light looked dark, it looked sad a little bit. The lady staff looked very tired and no smile... It would be different if I visited around noon. If I don't mind the store atmosphere, I'll go back for the delicious beagles. read more

Quite disappointed. I've gotten (plain and everything) bagels from the Bayview location multiple times and they have been delicious. This time, I visited the st. Clair location and got an onion bagel with butter and they skimp on the butter - it was dry. Also got a potato latkes and it was bland read more

Fantastic wood-oven bagels and pastries here. Their everything bagel is perfectly seasoned with all the regular fixings along with fennel seed and salt, bringing it to the next level. Their danishes are also very tasty and the spreads are fantastic. One of the gems of Yonge and St Clair. read more

Fresh bagels. Can't complain. Sometimes they have the oven going and you can get them super fresh but I've never had a problem with any stale ones. Usual standard sandwiches like Blts and Lox plus lots of spreads. Good choice for a quick lunch. Not a lot of counter space so grab and go. Recommended read more

Tasty bagels and great cream cheese selection. Would recommend this place. Great place to walk to if you live in the neighborhood.

the worst bagels i've had i my life. they were hard a rocks... im pissed cause i ordered from uber eats... so no returning. the salmon lox was slapped together poorly and very very fishy. an dthe other 3 bagels i got were obviously stale.... very dissapointing! read more

Bagels themselves were really good. They are pretty authentic for the montreal style. We got two Black Forest ham sandwiches. They did however run out of the type of bagel we wanted by noon which was surprising and disappointing. Service was not very welcoming. Menu flashes on and off on their computer screens making it inaccessible to people with reading impairments. They did not have a hard copy or paper menu as an alternative. Also disappointing. read more

A bit confusing on how to order but you go to the back and order first and then pay afterwards. I got the everything bagel with their house made cream cheese and I was not really a big fan of the cream cheese unfortunately. The bagel itself was not as bad though. I would definitely come back and try one of their other specialty bagels. read more

Don't bother going late at night, we went at 11:30pm and all they had was 4 choices and they were the ones no one wants. Don't get why they are open 24hrs when they had no bagels. read more

Went to the Avenue Rd & Lawrence location. The place is so dirty (walls, floor & tables). Shocking that they have a green pass. Pretty sure some city inspector's pocket is being padded. Had a sesame seed bagel, had to be the worst bagel I have ever had. Had the chicken liver on the bagel, seems like they added sugar by mistake. It was so sweet, it should be savory. Will never go back. That is for sure. read more

Another off shoot the bagel house. I am quite familiar with the original spot and the mid town location. This one is decent as well. This was a spur of the moment purchase as I am partial to their liver sandwich. The oven wasn't running on this visit (I think the original runs 24/7 if I recall) but the bagel was decent nonetheless. Nice chewy texture with a sweet finish courtesy of the honey water. I am by no means a connoisseur for bagels let alone Montreal style. Good stuff for what you pay 3.5 stars. read more

I schlepped across the city to get a decent Montreal bagel in Toronto, and I have no regrets.

Their bagels are chewy, light and packed with flavour!!! Must eat within two days otherwise they get hard and stale. I loved their everything, sesame and poppyseed. They're not very thick or doughy so one could probably eat two to equal one regular bagel. They aren't filling. read more

Food: 3 Stars Service: 3 Stars Ambience: 3 Stars Fill Factor: Snack Needed a quick bite for breakfast and stumbled upon this place. I am usually not big into bagels but I have got to say after this experience I may start getting bagels on a more regular basis. I ordered the BELT (Bacon, Egg, Lettuce, Tomato) on I think the flax bagel but I cannot be sure as I was not paying attention when I selected the bagel. The bacon, egg and such were fairly regular tasting but I did enjoy the bagel itself immensely. I am not sure if I am using the correct words to describe it but the bagel itself was pretty chewy and tasted fresh. I also got to taste the salmon spread and personally I found it to be way too fishy for me. I finished my order off with a chicken samosa which I would not recommend. The shop itself is not very big and I found the setup a bit confusing. When you first walk in you will be by the cash register but do not stop there as you need to go to the back of the store to order (look for the big order here sign). Service was just average which I do not mind as long as I get my food. To sum it up, I would come here for the bagels and not much else. There were about 8-10 varieties so I would not mind coming back and seeing if the other flavours are as good as the one I had. read more

I had a bagel board which is a super crispy common square bagel with lots of sesame seeds. With the side of Dill cream cheese. I love the crunch of the bagel but it was extremely too salty. Places a lot of cream cheese topping options and other offering such as potato latkes, pattus and knish. Mostly a takeout place. read more

Walking south to St.Clair I was craving a bagel & while bagel shops are few & far between these days we found one on the west side of the street, The Bagel House. A small tight space with some seats in the front window & a few tables packed tightly together, it is reminiscent in size of a New York deli or a bodega. The bagels are made in a kitchen in the back, while the service counter runs along the south wall of the place. They had a good selection of Montreal-styled bagels & we opted for a couple of onion bagels (why do Toronto places not have good onion & garlic bagels?) with some lox & mustard. There was a generous portion (at least for Toronto) of lox & the bagels were really yummy. They also have a good selection of other deli type foods, including latkes & knishes. The place was busy not only with Uber pickups but also people picking up their morning snacks & is a definite plus for the neighbourhood. read more

I had lunch today at The Bagel House. It's a small place with a few tables jammed against the wall. I ordered a sesame bagel with tomatoes and bacon. With a can of pop, it was $6. The bagel is apparently "authentic Montreal-style". Though the bagel was on the small side, it was chewy. The sandwich was good. I'd go back the next time I'm craving a BLT (minus the "L") and even a toasted bagel with butter. read more

Easy breakfast with quick delivery. I usually go for the breakfast sandwich with no bacon and the onion bagel are great too! decent bagels and service definitely recommend for connivence. great local staple (^‿^) read more

The only thing worse than their food is their service. This was my second time here. I was hoping I'd be happier at the end of the ordeal but I wasn't. Firstly - the owner should fire the staff. Rude, slow, chatty (with each other but not the customer) and did I mention slow. Stop chatting and start serving. Food: ordered the egg salad on the flax bagel. Bagel was under toasted. Egg salad was sloppy. Packaging was abhorrent. I needed a spoon to eat my sandwich. Coffee was also run of the mill. Self serve coffee that was barely passable as coffee at best. Save your money and don't eat here. I'd love to give you a recommendation (like Aroma) to go to in the area, but there's not much happening around here. read more

The Bagel House - Sloppy egg salad sandwich on an under toasted bagel. Blahhhhh. - Bagels Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Best MONTREAL STYLE bagel in Toronto. Better and more authentic than Toronto's "St Urbain" bagels. And whoever included Gryfe's on this list doesn't know what they are talking about. It is indeed the best bagel in toronto when fresh and hot, but it is not remotely Montreal style. If anything, it is unique to Toronto, and beats all when bought fresh. read more

Recommended by my training staff for this Bagel House. Very popular in the place. I tried BLT and Roasted Beef Sandwich, both on Everything Bagel. Very deicious. Compare to Fairmount Bagel in Montreal. This place is great to replace the selection. Only downside is a bit less selection. read more

DAMNNNNNN SOOOO GOOOOOOOOD! Went in there this morning to grab something to eat before I went to class and DAMNNNN! It was amazinggg! I bought the turkey breakfast sandwich; it was wonderful! I had it on an everything buttered bagel and the bagel was really fresh and soft! I enjoyed that the bagel was buttered and there was egg and a thick slice of turkey in it. It's close to the gym that I work out at now so I will definitely be coming back here! The employees here were also very nice as well! I went in there for the first time and I was very undecided but they didn't get mad that I was taking too long to order. She prepared by food perfectly and she even gave me a stamp card. Every 7 breakfast sandwich that you buy, you can get a free breakfast sandwich the next time you come back. I didn't even know that was a thing here but she was nice enough to ask me if I wanted one. Would I come back? YES! It's an amazing breakfast place even if it's small but the food is amazing. I ate it so fast that I even forgot to take a picture of it LOL read more

Meh. I have bagel in my DNA and this place didn't do it for me. They were ok but not awesome; that borderline sweet taste of the dough does not do it for me. The feta and cheese bourek was awful; embarrasingly bad. Have I had worse bagels? Yes. Were these great? No. read more

Downgrade by a star, probably closer to 2.5 and that only because they're always open. Price per bagel almost doubled in a year. Freshness & selection not up to previous years' standards and the new night clerk provides indifferent and demotivated service. OK so $1 a bagel is not expensive these days but keep in mind they sell by far the smallest bagel anywhere and if they could do it at .60 last spring you'd think the next couple of years would be .75 or 80. More disappointing is that they no longer make batches around the clock. The evening & night selection is sparse with only a handful of whatever varieties are left, and bagels were hard & dry like day olds at a supermarket. Last couple of visits ovens were obviously not working. Used to be whatever time of day or night there was always the smell and heat of next batch being baked. It's probably still up to standard for breakfast & lunchtime - but then there's plenty of good alternatives during business hours (with bigger bagels in a nicer shop...) the unique selling point of fresh bagels 24/7 no longer applies and it's not worth walking or driving an extra block if you're closer to a Tim's, Rabba or supermarket. read more

The begals that we ordered were stale and hard; we paid 35 cad for three bagels and weren't even able to eat them. There are better places to order bagels from. read more

Oh my goodness. I am not a bagel person, but this spot will turn me into a convert. I had the best bagels - plural - in my life thanks to Bagel House. I happened to pass by it during one of my midnight runs. It's located south of St Clair on Yonge Street. It's a small shop and the sign is easy to miss; about 2 minutes walk from the subway station. The place sits about 10 people; it's very small. I do not think that people come here to sit and socialize like they would in coffee shops - you'd come here for the bagel and leave with a bag of bagels. They offer cheese spread because calories from bagel isn't low enough. I tried the salmon cream cheese spread and sweet jesus, it's delicious. It doesn't have the Tim Hortons cream and cheese price, a bit pricier than that, but it has the taste of a higher end cream cheese. The bagel is pricier than factory-produced bagels, but they are fresh. At least I think they are. The Bagel House also have pastries and samosas if bagels aren't​ your thing. They also sell pop and juices are a ​reasonable price. I can say that after having these bagels, I will never go back to buying at supermarkets. I'll make the trip because it's worth it. read more

Really surprisingly good for such a small location. Their bagels and cream cheese are really good. And they're always open, so your cravings never go unanswered. read more

I discovered the Bagel House last year when I really wanted some carby goodness during lockdown, and this place quickly became my new favourite. Everything I've tried so far has been fresh, warm and made with love. Friendly service, friendly vibes. The pumpernickel bagel with their homemade chive cream cheese is my current fave. Try their pastries too. So many reasons to keep coming back. read more

I ordered from Doordash. I forgot to order lettuce, but I called them directly and asked if they could throw in a couple of pieces. They were so nice on the phone and they included a full container of lettuce in my order! I've both ordered online and been in-person and I'm impressed every time. It's my go-to bagel place! read more

Came by for some bagels as this place is conveniently located on the subway line. Order half a dozen of bagels. The bagels are soft on the outside and chewy on the inside. They also have day old bagels that come in a dozen for half the price. Looks like they group together the same kinds in those bags. Pretty good deal you can store them in the freezer and put it on the oven the next day. read more

Wanted to find a "real" Montreal-style bagel after tried Fairmount bagels. Friend told me this is the place. They look like it............ they are smaller and with a larger hole! Tried the onion, and it's good!! It smelled great! Yup yuppp.... it is sweeter, denser, and I can tell it is wood baked. Finally found a "real" Montreal-style bagel in Toronto!!

It was our last day but i had to try a montreal style bagel twister with lox and cream cheese. It definitely didn't disappoint. I loved the bagel which was lighter and less dense than American bagel with one side poppy seed and the other side sesame seed. The bread itself also was a little sweeter. I loved it the bagel but just be aware that the twister is more expensive than the regular bagel because it bigger so 1. You can share 2. It was a little pricey around $9.50 Canadian for the twister with cream cheese There street parking on the side and they do take carda. read more
