Jason BrewOctober 18, 2015Bagels here are a bit different as they're smaller than typical and not crispy on the outside, but they are very good!
The Corcoran GroupSeptember 12, 2014Bagels are on the small side, but still worth the hefty price tag. Go with the beet-cured salmon on a bagel, or the #11 if you're in more of an egg sandwich mood. Can't wait to try their pizza bagels!
Mark O'NeillApril 27, 2014Really enjoyed the specialty sandwiches. Bagels are a great mix: Montreal-sized w NYC doughy texture.
Can't go wrong with the egg salad on an everything bagel 😎
Andrew ShumMarch 18, 2016One of the few places in the area where you can eat a bagel and simultaneously dutty wine to a tasteful selection of dancehall
Believe the hype! Have to come back here to try all the different spreads and options!
They’re back and their lines are shorter than ever. Did people discover somewhere else? I DO NOT CARE!
Emilie FuttermanMay 26, 2015Expensive, but worth it. Grab a bagel and then walk to the park at Lafayette to enjoy it.
Matthew SpectorFebruary 15, 2015Impressive Montreal-style bagels. Top with whitefish salad or beet-cured salmon. Winning.
Scott WJanuary 20, 2016These "Montreal style" bagels are out of this world. You just gotta get the Ham, Egg & Cheese!
Jen ShinJuly 10, 2016tobiko cream cheese is surprisingly good. small bagel, but well worth the price!
Ben K.November 24, 2014Amazing Montreal-style wood fired bagels from Noah and Rae of Mile End Deli. Everything is amazing but first timers should try the beet cured lox or chicken salad.
Lyndsey MAugust 9, 2017Halfway between small Montreal-style bagels and giant NY-style bagels. I get their freshest bagel w/ cream cheese: fancier options like sandwiches always feel underwhelming and overpriced.
Poppy seed bagel with scallion cream cheese and tomato slices, don't forget the iced coffee!
TingJuly 21, 2015A lot of choices and be prepared to queue. Should have better options than the roast beef with arugula though.
Anuj MathurMay 21, 2015ask for what's warm and get your cream cheese on the side (plain + scallion for me).

Leroy TellezAugust 13, 2014Egg, avocado, and tomato sandwich is delicious! Kind of messy, but worth it.
Yes- they are expensive. But where else can you get tobiko cream cheese and watermelon radishes on your bagels?
Red FabbriAugust 8, 2014Small and expensive but just incredible. I still prefer an Ess-A-Bagel but these Canadian hipsters know what they're doing.
David HuJuly 31, 2014At up to $13 a bagel, this place is very pricey. Probably won't be your "stop here everyday for breakfast" place unless you just roll like that- Learn to tolerate a mass of hungover couples who all know each other and are unspeakably well to do.
Nicky K.September 6, 2014Small and expensive but that horseradish cream cheese is worth it! Get there early.
Ricky SherrillSeptember 8, 2014Don't miss the late night pizza bagels. A perfect way to wrap up an evening.
These Montréal-style bagels are small & will cost you more than what you're used to, but you can't resist trying the tobiko spread, salmon, & butter lettuce on an everything bagel. Worth the wait!
Tom WangJanuary 4, 2016Hi this is a nice and trendy bagel place great if you have money but suddenly painful when you don't
If you're thinking about choosing this over the near by Russ and Daughters, don't.- Andrew DavidMay 5, 2014Looking at the line, you'd think they'd be amazing. They're just good. Not worth staying in line for more than 10 minutes unless you really have nothing better to do with your day.
Choose your bagel based on whatever is fresh and warm from the oven.
Matt DorvilleAugust 10, 2014Great bagels but don't get an egg baked bagel to go. It'll go everywhere.
Steo SAugust 2, 2014You gotta be crazy in you head to pay 16$ for tiny bagel. Having said that: it is soo good... Yhummmm
