St Urbain Bagel

Verified by N49

Pretty underwhelming.

I had the smoked salmon on pumpernickel and everything bagel. The cream cheese was smooth and generously spread. But the bagels themselves were rather disappointing. No chew, no warmth, no real texture. They felt flat— more like something you’d grab in a grocery aisle than from a place that specializes in bagels.

On top of this, the wait wasn’t worth it for the quality of food we received. There wasn’t a line, but it still took too long for only two bagels to come out.

It’s not terrible, just forgettable. If you’re already nearby and craving a bagel, it’ll do the job. I wouldn’t go out of my way for it.

4.5/5

If you like bagels, this is your place! We ordered the lox bagel (I recommend the chive cream cheese) and it was so scrumptious. The wait was a bit longer but it was worth it. They don’t chintz out on the lox; the flavours and textures came together so well. We were pleasantly surprised!

I see comments here complaining about the price… this place offers quality over quantity. We bought a stack and cut & frozen them so we can eat them during the week.

We’ll be back!

The craigel is worth the hype! First time trying to craigel with egg+BLT and it didn’t disappoint. The staff is friendly and everything is made fresh. Be prepared to wait 5-10 minutes for your order, and the items are definitely on the more expensive side $$$$. If you want a unique breakfast sandwich- I recommend giving it a try!

Breakfast here is truly unmatched. I usually go for the Turkey BLT with fried egg and cream cheese. It’s absolutely worth waiting in line for. I tried their sweet bagels once but didn’t enjoy them much though I know many people love them, so it’s just personal taste.

The only downside is the customer service. It’s often rushed and not very friendly, likely due to how busy the place gets. Still, I love their breakfast options so much that whenever I’m near Lawrence Market, this is always my go-to spot.

Opened in 1986 St. Urbain Bagel Bakery in St. Lawrence Market has been serving up tasty sandwiches and bagel delights. We've been going for years but heard about a 'craigel' that is a croissant/bagel mix and it's so delicious! We also saw a chocolate chunk cookie dough croissant and that is so next level we had to restrain ourselves haha. Time to eeeat! Had yet? I ate it as is while watching everyone in line get more haha! 😆
