Montreal-style wood-fired bagels rolled, boiled in honey water, and baked hot. Multiple locations make late-night bagel runs possible.
A Toronto institution. Super light, super soft, and famously squishable. People buy them by the dozen and freeze.
Hand-rolled, wood-fired bagels baked at both Queen West and The Beach locations. Good chew, nice blistered crust.
Primrose Bagel Company on Oakwood Avenue rolls and malt‑boils hand‑made bagels daily with chewy, flavourful crusts and rotating schmears in a cozy Oakwood Village bodega-style shop that sells out fast
Inside St Lawrence Market (and some mall kiosks). Montreal roots show in the smaller size and sweet, malty dough.
Family-run chain across the GTA turning out fresh boiled bagels and over-the-top bagel sandwiches. Reliable crowd pleaser when feeding a group.
