St-Viateur Bagel

NPS = 8
What a delightful place!
Many say this place’s competitor has better bagels, but that place doesn’t even deserve to mentioned alongside St Viateurs!
We went to both bagel places while in Montréal and St. Viateurs is the clear winner.
The customer service is top notch. The gentlemen at the counter helped us out and even gave us an awesome cream cheese spread to try made here in Canada (we almost bought the Philadelphia stuff just from brand recognition).
The bagel with all the fixings is the best. Try a little cream cheese (it tastes a little more like sour cream than the U.S. version) and some smoked salmon on it. Delish.
The black cherry cola (by Stewart’s) is not to be missed.
The bagels are cheap ($ 0.80 per bagel) and this is definitely a place to get them to go.
There is nowhere to sit but there is a table where you can make yourself a quick sándwich and head out.
The chocolate strudel is amazing as well. Definitely a must see while in Montréal.

The quintessential Montréal bagel. Why go anywhere else? Really why?
