Think Montreal Bagels for School (or Your) Lunches
Anything can be put on a bagel for a lunchtime – cold cuts, tuna or salmon salad, hummus, cream cheese and jam, pizza sauce and mozzarella, pb&j and on and on. St-Viateur Bagel, the famous bagel store open since 1957, is still churning out a constant stream of white (sesame seed) and black (poppy seed) bagels. Wherever you are in the city, there is a St-Viateur Bagel location near you: downtown, the West Island, Laval, Montreal North, NDG, Ville St-Laurent and in the Gay Village.
You can also buy multigrain, cinnamon raisin, flax, rosemary and sea salt or whole wheat bagels, matzoh boards, lox, cream cheese, challah and rye bread and more. Once you bite into a hot one straight from the oven; you won’t be able to eat any other bagel again.
You can now order bagels across Canada and the US through their web site www.stviateurbagel.com
