Review from Basimah S.
Toronto, ON
Ended up going there after a late night concert because it was the only thing open that late, except for the 24hr Mcdonald's in the area. What an awesome idea! Really hit the spot. Had a egg salad bagel (9-grain) and my boyfriend had the montreal smoke meat on everything bagel. So fresh so late at night, and even the egg salad didn't taste stale. I'll be making it a regular!

Review from Mariko M.
Maybe I just don't care enough about bagels?
I came here yesterday to grab a bagel and I'm perfectly fine not having one today.
I ordered an everything bagel with chive cream cheese.
Salty and good.
What brings my rating to a three star would be the service.
I wasn't really sure where the line started or ended; it seemed quite disorganized.
BH was quite busy, but the way in which orders are taken can be better organized imo.
Anyway, I'm the last person who needs a bagel so I'm not sure when I'll be back.
For now, it's an a-ok bagel joint found in Leaside. -

Good bagels. Amazing cream cheese. Quick and in a great location, customer service is bland.

Review from Rosie S.
OH. MY. GODS. (a.k.a. bagels)
The Victoria Park Market Loblaws now brings in FRESH Bagel House bagels EVERY DAY. All varieties.
Heaven.
No more having to drive across the city on long-winded, long-awaited bagel missions. THEY HAVE COME TO ME!!!
It's the small things in life, I suppose, that make me happiest. One of them is the everything bagel from Bagel House. And now it's a two-minute drive from my house.
The bagel gods have smiled upon me, and it is goooood.Listed in: 24-7

Best bagels ever. Will never by at the grocery store again.

Review from Amanda N.
Scarborough, ON
These bagels are awesome!!!! Always warm and fresh from the oven, and even the day old ones they sell in packs taste good.
I thought I would never find a bagel to rival my Montreal obsession in Toronto, but I was wrong! I moved away from this area and PAINFULLY MISS THESE PILLOWY MOUNDS OF DELICIOUSNESS.
Note: I just discovered that Pusateri's carries these bagels! Not as good as getting them from the source, but it'll do in a pinch! -
Review from David M.

I agree with the previous bagel reviews and have nothing to add on that front, but I wanted to recommend the big pretzels.
You know those ball park or street pretzels available around the city? Well, Bagel House pretzels are nothing like those. Like the bagels, these are wood oven baked! They are delicious, and have spoiled my enjoyment of the other tasteless wonders.
They make a limited amount each day, and they could be gone by early afternoon.
Enjoy, and thank me later.
EDIT: Head's up. I visited yesterday and had a prune hamantaschen. (It is Purim, after all.) I discovered their weak link. It was undercooked and a huge disappointment. Stick with the bagels/pretzels...their pastry disappoints. (I previously tried the rugelach and was similarly disappointed.)Listed in: Breakfast places

Review from Chris H.
Toronto, ON
Sure, if you want a Montreal bagel and you are on the Bayview strip, this is the place to go.
But
the staff epitomizes the 'I don't care' attitude that often prevails in Toronto. They are surly, unhelpful, and generally rude. Beyond the bagels, there is little to recommend, and even less in terms of value for money.
And the coffee is wretched.
There is never any excuse for poor customer service. -
Review from Hailey E.
Toronto, ON
Lately I've taken to hosting Sunday brunches chez moi & no brunch is complete without a trip to Bagel House for fresh, wood oven, Montreal style bagels! They melt in your mouth when they're still warm, and go extremely well with lox and cream-cheese! Short of driving all the way to Montreal, The Bagel House is where it's at!
If you decide to eat-in, Bagel house makes great breakfast sandwiches with egg and cheese or lox and cream-cheese on a bagel. Seating is limited (about 4 tables) but on nice days you can find a near-by park to picnic in! -
Review from Greg F.

If your into mouth watering bagels, this is your place. This morning I stopped in for a pretty standard Sesame bagel with cream cheese.
As per usual, the bagel was extremely fresh, strait out of the oven and the cream cheese was evenly distributed (I hate places that over do the cream cheese distribution, and leave the centre filled!).
There coffee isn't the greatest (bitter and not hot enough), but the bagel makes up for it! Service in under 5 minutes, and for $3 its hard to beat!
The Bagel house is a must for the morning Montreal style bagel fix! -
Review from Dan P.

I just moved back to Toronto after 3 years in Montreal and brought a cute french girl with me.
We rented a place off Bayview not really knowing what a great restaurant scene it was here, and we were very pleasantly surprised with Bagel House.
Montreal's known for their Bagel's, and my girlfriend was seriously talking about bringing them in by the trunkload when we moved. After having these though we agree that these are on par or better than most Montreal bagels (with a few exceptions).
The guy comes from Pierrefonds (just outside Montreal) and it shows. Great taste and texture, always fresh, usually still hot, and great spreads to go with them.
Best bagels I've had outside of Montreal, and better than most that I had there. -
