Myer's Bagels

Made it a point to visit while in town for a reunion. Did a little research ahead of time for Montreal-style bagels and Myer's definitely delivered. Loved the smoky smell of wood-fired bagels upon entereing. Large selection, though, go early if you're looking for variety. Fresh and frozen available to bring home. Menu is extensive. The building is small but doesn't feel that way once inside. Counter, booth and table seating available. Will definitely return when in town again.

First timer here. Simply….WOW! I got the Bloody Mary and the 408 on a Rosemary Sea Salt Bagel. Best bloody and best bagel sandwich I’ve ever had (and I’ve tried many!)

We are Montrealers and we have strong opinions about bagels 🥯😅😂😂 This was not as good has fairmont or st-viateur, but a real good bagel! We tried 2 sandwiches and one with cream cheese The bagels we tried Montreal spice, everything bagel, sesame. The mtl spice was strange to me, not the mtl spice i am used too. Sesame was the best, simple is better! Everything bagel was also great. They had so many spreads and bagel choices, i would love to come back and try more! Hot cider was also a great surprise! I loved it 😋

I don't know what kind of luck I had to have to get two tops on my bagel this morning, but it has ensured my return 😂 Also the staff is super nice and complimented my outfit in a non creepy way. Anyways, between the Lox and the Latte, it's a win.

First time 5/5, second time 4/5. Myers Bagels made a strong first impression with fresh, delicious bagels and great cream cheeses. However, during my second visit, the Maple bagel seemed undercooked but somehow also dry, which was a bit disappointing. That said, the cream cheeses were consistently excellent and definitely a highlight. While Myers is solid, I'd rank Willows Bagels slightly ahead. Still, it's worth a visit, and I’d return the next time I'm in Burlington. Was able to sit outside with our dog and enjoy our bagel. Dog friendly!

The bagels are awesome and they name an incredible breakfast sandwich. The staff is friendly even though they are busy. The place is inviting and clean. The only weak link is the coffee game. The coffee is in the weak side and if they just had the option of a little stronger coffee then the whole experience would go from 8 to 11. A place that serves such good breakfast can't have a weak coffee game.

Very good "Montreal-style" bagel, this time topped with egg and cheese. Tasty, nicely done, very enjoyable. I think next time, I just stick with cream cheese. This is not a laptop hangout, which is fine. Enjoy the bagel and the refillable coffee!

I had a lox bagel gluten free the man that had waited on me was extremely rude. He had an attitude immediately I had asked if the bagel was gluten free and all he said was sesame or plain I asked again all I wanted was a yes if it was gluten free. It was quite embarrassing he gave me attitude and made me feel dumb with the questions he asked next. Do better with your service otherwise bagel was good

Don't love Montreal-style bagels (I'm from New York City)! But this place is cozy. The lox bagel was way better than the chorizo egg and cheese bagel. They also put very little schmear in all of our sandwiches.

Plenty of parking. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating. Food is fresh and delicious every time. Especially love their veggie cream cheese and sesame, everything, and cinnamon raisin bagels. Service is typically good but they don't always have someone manning the cash register (because they're helping with something in the back) and so that can slow the line down quite a bit. Low key vibe and sometimes music playing but it's not too loud and so easy to hear/talk if you're with someone inside the place.

Located Myer's while they were still on the lakefront when my family planned on moving to town and needed a go-to bagel place. So glad I did! We're native New Yorkers and weaned on old school New York traditional savory bagels (and Kossar's bialys) ... before Cinnamon, Everything or (yikes) Rainbow bagels existed. That said, we're open to other combinations to go with our smoked fish.... which is mostly whitefish salad or lox. Myer's offers a range of savory Montreal-style bagels that we've certainly ended up preferring to that city's "too sweet for us" Fairmount or St. Viateur Bagels. Myer's still uses Montreal techniques for hand-rolled, honey-boiled and wood-fired, with a comparable size - but they do it sooo much better!!! Without a doubt, truly artisan. My favorite Myer's bagel varieties are Montreal Spice, Rosemary Sea Salt, and Kitchen Sink! Especially always bring back Montreal Spice to my NYC home or have an outstanding order with my Burlington-transplant kinfolk when they come to visit. This awesome new location on Shelburne Road is a great setting. Everyone there is also super friendly, including the manager Chris. Highly recommend making Myer's a destination to eat (or pick up eats) when in town!

So many bagel choices of both gluten-free and gluten full varieties. I was so thrilled to give this place a try. I got the gluten free sesame bagel with bacon scallion shmear. Omg! It was delightful. Had the perfect amount of chew and texture. This place is legit when it comes to good bagels. I wish I lived closer, I'd get bagels from here on the daily. Service was efficient and the bagels came out quickly. Prices were decent, gluten-free bagels do cost a little bit more than the standard, however, that seems to be on par with most places these days.

Based off shipping order. Places an order on Monday evening for 2 dozen bagels. $40 all in delivered via UPS Ground to SEPA. Very quick turnaround to ship. Arrived today. Excitedly tossed 2 in the oven with some butter (Rosemary salt and Sesame Sunflower). All done and besides the rosemary, these are quite bland and borderline flavorless. They will be more of a vessel to add items to and will not be enjoyed simple with butter or cream cheese. Bummed as I have been following them for some time now and wood fired sounded like a great way to add flavor. Sadly, not the case.

3.5 stars. Being a self-proclaimed bagel foodie, while on vacation we saw 'wood fired' bagels and had to try. Came on a cold cloudy Friday morning. Place had a line to the door. Only one person taking orders, so it took a bit to put in our order. While good, it was not great..to me. We love NY bagels, and these are small, a bit thin, and honestly to us didn't have a ton of taste. We even bought some extra bagels to try (and munch on in the car) and the Maple one didn't have any flavor. I liked the place, was warm and saw people taking their time reading the paper and enjoying the coffee (which is great, so as long as others ordering can get a seat).

Great bagels! Crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. Staff was very friendly and even recommended some nearby hikes to us out of towners. Also only took about 5 min to get our food even in a busy Saturday morning. Highly recommend

It is SO GOOD! The bagel itself tastes amazing! I also got a Sesame with Sunflower seeds one with veggie cream cheese to go! Their cream cheese is so good too! The service is awesome! You can see they are making fresh bagels in front of the wood fire! You have to come and grab their bagels if you are in South Burlington!

Nice local store. Loads of selection for bagels and cream cheese. The sandwich selection was also tops. AND they have an Impossible sausage and egg sandwich. The inside was cool with loads of seats as was the outside patio. Really nice personable staff. This should be a definite stop in your day.

I went here for breakfast. Huge variety of fresh bagels on tap. Lots of different sandwiches and you can build your own. Lots of state looking spreads available as well. I got a bottle of Montreal Spice to bring home.

Cool ambiance and even better bagels I was traveling for vacation and discovered this gem. The bagels are wood-fire baked and the Montreal seasoning is flavorful. Staff was friendly and overall happy with experience.

They were busy and stayed busy. So I knew they were going to be good. Staff was hard at work but friendly an very attentive. You get to watch them make the bagels right in front of you.

Just heard about Myer's. Loved their bagels, which are lighter and tastier than others we've tried. We had one each including a bagel with lox and cream cheese- incredible. The home made veggie cream cheese is rich in flavor and very spreadable. The owner was working right along with the staff, which gives this place a family oriented vibe. The location is very pleasant and very clean. On Friday afternoon- evening they feature pizza so we had to go back to try. We're glad we did. The pizza is very tasty with just the right amount of sauce and cheese. The crust is perfectly baked and not too doughy. We'll definitely be going back. Check out Myer's - you'll be happy you did!

I love Myers prior to them moving to the new location, and I love it even more now. Bagels are still delicious ( I love the sesame bagels with scallion cream cheese), but the new location is much more convenient and clean. There is a good amount of seating inside and outside, the service was great, and there is plenty of parking spots in comparison to the old location. Would highly recommend if you like Montreal style bagels.

Had to try Montreal style bagels. Very good. Still like NY style better but these are a close second. They have several good bagels choices and cream cheese flavors. The Ivan was the highlight.

Was on a road trip and came across this place through Yelp. Loved the bagel sandwiches. Order at the counter and they bring it to you at the table. The bag of bagel chips though was a little too over seasoned. I couldn't eat it and had to toss it.

I feel like Myers is an example of a place that suffers from its success. Not to say the quality has suffered as the bagels feel as good in the new location as they were on Pine St, the large number of people coming in has made ordering a bit more of a hassle. Avoid ordering online if possible as I think they have a lot going on that leads to them being extra slow even if you're just asking for a sliced bagel with shmear.

Love the bagels but the ordering system is awful do not like the person taking my money to also make my sandwich Also we were promised a dinner (pizza) restaurant with a bar never came about been several restaurants in this spot since KFC left liked them all rate this one the second worst afterCST

I had high hopes for this place. Very cute, wood fired bagels. Staff was amazingly friendly. There's nothing I love more than a good bagel and cream cheese. We got a variety of bagels, plain, maple(very dense) everything and montreal spice. They were all very bland but the Montreal spice bagel. The breakfast sandwiches are a hit or miss. Rather that than a bagel and smear.

When I read the reviews I thought it was hilarious how a lot of people were "willing to die" or "sent up to heaven" for these bagels. Traveling here from the south the other night, of course I had to try them. I got the Ivan on a Montreal spice bagel and I can confirm it is death defying, life changing, and soul resurrecting. Just the avocado with the egg and the melted Brie with the sriracha omg. SO GOOD. Well what's in Montreal spice seasoning might you ask? It's literally Montreal steak seasoning mixed with Italian herbs. Ive never had anything like it and it tops the charts higher than the beloved everything bagel. It's more savory and flavorful. The service was fantastic and the staff were very hard at work making those bagels from scratch! I hope they take good care of their hands because I see how they have to dip their hands in the hot water to get the bagels out and I'm worried about burns. They should go to a spa or something and treat themselves because they look like they deserve it.

Great bagels and good variety. Also have breakfasts available and above average breakfast sandwiches. Best bagel shop in the area. Wish all of their bakery items were marked with prices, but not a big deal. Definitely check them out if you want a Montreal style bagel in Vermont!

We were curious to taste what a Montreal style bagel tasted like so we hit M's B B for breakfast today. We ordered breakfast sandwiches with eggs, and bagels with lox, and cream cheese, the bagel and lox had a very generous portion of lox, and also came with capers, onion, and tomato, a perfect sandwich, and very reasonably priced I just ordered a toasted everything bagel, with butter because I just wanted to taste the essence of a Montreal bagel. My take on Montreal style bagels is that they are very small, and are chewier than New York style bagels. I prefer NY style better. We picked up a bag of rugelach that were additively delicious. As an aside, there is a really eclectic, and very cool book store located in the same building next to the bagel shop, you should check it out. It not only has a incredible collection of books, but also a lot of unique curios, and paintings for sale.

This is BY FAR thee best lox bagel I have ever had in my life. I know this may sound dramatic lol, but it's true! Let me start by saying that each staff member was super friendly and efficient. When we got there, the line looked long and intimidating, but trust me, it moved very quickly. Most of that is due to having staff members taking orders while you're standing in the line waiting to get to the register. By the time you get to the register, your food is almost done! Once we got the food, we sat outside to dig in immediately. We both ordered the lox bagels with the Montreal Spice bagel. That spice took the bagel to the next level. Every bite, was just so good, I didn't want it to end. As a visitor, I wish I could have packed a dozen of the bagels and flew them home with me. If you are ever in the area, this place is a MUST!

The bagels at the old place were fantastic. The ones they make at the new place are meh. I don't know what's changed but the magic is gone. I no longer look forward to it.

The bagels here are made fresh in-house and you can actually see them being made. We got our sandwiches quickly which was great because we were very excited to try them. We got the Montreal spice bagel which was delicious. The atmosphere was typical of a breakfast bagel place. I definitely would come back and planning on ordering their bagels to be shipped to me because they were so good!

Bagels can be complex. At Myers you have tattooed bagel bakers flipping wood-fired concoctions from oven to baskets, which seems straightforward. But when you reach the front of the line for your order (15 minutes max even on a Sunday morning), you realize the the potential combinations of bagel flavor with topping is expansive. You'll be tempted to hit the Montreal style basics--sesame, everything. But I ask you to consider Rosemary sea salt because it's unusual and so good. Pair that with garlic herb cream cheese and you're in shmeer heaven. Other combos: Rachel's whitefish; or improvise, as daughter did: egg, garlic and herb cream cheese, pickled jalapeños, spinach, roasted fingerling potatoes, on everything bagel. Thank you Myer's for making the simple complex and the complex so very delicious.

I WOULD honestly give them at least 4.5 stars if I were averaging out my experience with the food alone. What to expect when you arrive at Myers: A beautiful, newly updated location (previously Mimmo's and a bunch of other ill-fated concepts) from their old...mmmm let's say "rustic" location on Pine St. I have lived in the area for almost 8 years and have been a frequent customer of Myers since then. I am a native New Yorker so I'd rather have a completely different Montreal-style bagel than someone's interpretation of a proper NY-style bagel. The wood fire WILL leave char on the bagels at times. Certain ingredients like onions and garlic do not fair well in the high temperature. All that being said, it's kind of why I like them to begin with. Their Montreal Spice bagel, fresh at opening with a schmear of veggie cream cheese is a savory, salty and soft circular piece of divinity. Counter service has been consistently friendly and helpful! The two owners (who have to be brothers, if not twins) are always very pleasant and are definitely hard working dudes. Nobody seems "miserable " so to speak and genuinely happy to be there. They are so close to being a five star hands down joint if they polished up their flow. The counter worker will take your order then disappear to the back to make your bagel after you pay (obviously this doesn't apply if you're buying by the dozen and taking out) and you kind of just wait by the bar or I suppose you can sit but if they're busy you wouldn't want to take a table if you're leaving ... I digress. Sometimes the wait is long when you only order a few bagels with cream cheese, nothing fancy. Sometimes if you order online, you can wait past an hour to get your food. I feel a lot of the things could be improved if they reorganized the way orders are received and fulfilled. I'm definitely a picky food consumer as I am a chef/foodservice professional for a couple of decades and it definitely makes dining out with me a nightmare. Anyways great job Myers!

Gotta get the Montreal spice bagel. I prefer it as a bagel sandwich with bacon egg and cheese. Best bagels in all of Burlington!

Picture this... I'm in Burlington on business, had an early 5am gym session, don't have to be to UVM Medical Center until 0830, it's -12 degrees outside, and my hotel's 'continental' breakfast is lukewarm coffee and granola bars (I've done my share of international travel, but I still can't tell you which continent that's from).... you're with me? I decided I'm hitting Yelp to find a place for some hot breakfast! I ultimately decide on this place. I'm not sure why, there were a couple bagel places rated highly, but this one drew me in, and I am so glad it did. It's a bit out of the way, but not too far from city center. I pulled in to an unassuming parking lot in front of some unassuming industrial buildings (it reminded me of the waterfront fish warehouses in Portland for some reason), and head inside. The SMELLS! It was like heaven for my nose. The coffee and the bagels cooking (which you can see happening by the way) turned me into a cartoon, I started floating through the air to the ordering counter. I ordered my coffee and a turkey sausage, onions, peppers, egg and cheddar on a poppy seed bagel. Then I waited. It only took a couple minutes, in which I got to witness many bagels heading into the oven. Mine came out, and COVID still being a thing, I head outside to my nicely warm car to eat. The coffee was tasty, nice and bold. The sandwich was sooooooo good, when I tell you I was sad it was ending, I mean there may have been a literal tear in my eye as I popped the last bite into my mouth. If I didn't have work to get to, and didn't think they'd have judged me, I would have gone right back in and ordered two more. The sausage was deliciously salty, the veggies still had some crispness to them, the cheese was nice and melty, and the egg was nicely over easy (which I LOVE), everything was perfect. (Though if you don't like runny eggs, make sure to ask for it to be cooked through!!!) So why only four stars you may be asking? And a worthy question it would be! Well, as I stated before, the runny egg. I enjoy that quite a lot, but it doesn't say anywhere it will be runny, nor do they mention it. Not an issue for me, but I can just imagine my wife's horror as she bit into it (now I know to order hers well done if she is ever with me). Not a big deal this trip, but I think it should be something that's mentioned. And the main reason, the service was lackluster. A young girl seemed annoyed that she was taking my order, there was little assistance with where the cream/sugar was, and she seemed annoyed that I wanted to switch the sausage out for veggie sausage (even though it's an option!). I get it, we all have bad days, and this was an icy day to be sure. Her service was as cold as the wind outside! But that still won't stop me from coming back! In Portland, Maine we are spoiled by an amazing array of delicious bagel locations. Rose's, Forage, Scratch, and Maple's to name a few, but this place stood above them in my mind. The ability to customize my sandwich, the onions and peppers, and the availability of turkey sausage, wins out. Whenever I am in Burlington, this is now my go to breakfast spot!

Loved the bagels here! They were swamped for a Sunday morning (which we expected) but the wait wasn't that long for 2 bagels with cream cheese and coffee...maybe about 15-20 minutes. Our favorite was the maple bagel and the montreal spice cream cheese. We got them to go and I honestly regret not getting another one because it was so good. We also tried the poppyseed bagel with veggie cream cheese but it was just ok. Would definitely go back!

Out of all the bagel places in the Greater Burlington area, this one is my favorite. The bagels are just that good and I love the variety in smears. I only wish their cafe options were better.

The best bagels! Great options and I love that it is so tasty without tons of extra bread in the bagel. I like the location on Shelburne Road with nice parking.

The best pizza and the ceasar salad is delicious. They use the bagel chips as croutons! The drinks are really good too. We love Myer's Bagel!

Top 5 food I've ever eaten in my life. For $7.50, I got the Ivan breakfast sandwich and I literally would die for it. The bagel itself so perfect--doughy on the inside and crunchy on the outside. It was also on the lighter side unlike a lot of bagels. The eggs and cheese were also cooked so well. If I were a local, I would be here every week just for this sandwich. The local coffee is also excellent. The staff is so friendly, too! While we were waiting, they gave us a free bagel to try. You can also watch them cook the bagels right in front of you in the wood fired oven.

Service is excellent, bagels, cream cheese and coffee are all yummy. I would highly recommend!

What A Wonderful Bagel Place , Montreal Style , Tasty - So Many Choices ! All delicious ! All the Staff SUPER Happy & Friendly !

The service is good but I feel the old location on Pine st did much better and since they've moved it hasn't been the same. The bagels are super tiny compared to what I'm used to being a New Yorker, they're good quality for a Montreal style bagel just small. ALSO, their "everything bagel" Is just poppy and sesame, if you really want an everything get their kitchen sink bagel.

The food is amazing We always try to make sure to pick up breakfast when we are visiting family in Burlington Vermont.

Myer's Bagel Bakery is a popular spot for bagels and after having a bagel from here, I can understand why. Myer's Bagel Bakery offers a nice selection of bagels and the usual bagel shop offerings in a pleasant enough setting (you can see the Panera inspiration in their interior design). The staff is friendly enough and the bagel, as I have mentioned before, are pretty good. I am originally from New Jersey and have had a lifelong affection for bagels. The New York City/New Jersey/Long Island area have (at least in my opinion) some of the best bagels in the country and I was fortunate enough to have grown up knowing what a great bagel should be. While these bagels will not make the legendary bagel makers in New York City, New Jersey or Long Island shake in their flour dusted boots and glance fearfully over their shoulder, Myer's Bagel Bakery makes a respectable bagel. They probably could put a bit more cream cheese on their bagel, but again, being from New Jersey, I can say that we have always been excessive with the cream cheese, so much so that the rest of the country probably looks horrified at what we consider a normal amount of cream cheese on a bagel. I had their everything bagel with cream cheese and it was pretty good. These are Montreal-style bagels, a bit more dense than the New York-style bagel, though honestly, it is not a huge difference to me. A good bagel is a good bagel and Myer's Bagel Bakery definitely makes a good bagel. I would definitely recommend here and I give it four stars ().

It's worth going just to watch the Montreal Style bagels being made. See them cut and rolled (one handed), kettle boiled, dipped in herbs and spices, and baked in the wood fired oven in their open kitchen. My favorite meal is the smoked trout and scrambled eggs (get either as a plate with bagels, or as a breakfast sandwich. Great prices for individual bagels, half dozens and dozens. My only complaint is that the staff seems worn out and it affects the customer service a bit. These guys are so busy, be sure to tip them well! We want them to keep making the bagels!

Came here 2 days in a row, then swung in before our flight home. Really damn good. Freshly made bagels. Watch them work while you order. It's fascinating to see the process. Everything is done by hand and in the Montreal style. The result is a deliciously flavorful bagel with a bit more chew to it. Try the Montreal seasoning bagel. Or the everything. Choose one of The sandwiches that speaks to you most. Nothing is bad here. You can also order online to skip the line, though we didn't experience a line more than 5 minutes long in our 3 visits. The food in Burlington is awesome and this place helps add to the already great food scene.

Phenomenal sandwiches and hot cider. Can recommend highly the Ivan & Henchman. Subtle Sirachia heat

Cute place and very busy. Never had Montréal style bagels. I do have to say at 1st though bland. But the more I ate the better I liked. It is a thinner style one. But very good. I like the vibe of this place as well. Quickly moving. Many great local items ti buy as well. Parking is good but a rough road getting there. Very much enjoy this place.

What a find - Don't let the industrial, gravel drive location deter you! Myer's is worth the bit of extra way-finding. Bagels are all finished in a wood burning oven, impressive to watch while waiting for your delicious sandwiches to be made. The house specials were delicious - the Ivan and Conquistador- avocado perfectly ripe, just the right amount of cheese, fried egg and sriracha / Be sure to grab a few extra napkins !

Boy, this place was crowded and rightly so! We passed by this area and saw someone eat a bagel sandwich that looked too good to pass by! We ordered the Lox bagel and a roasted pork bagel. The size of the bagels is just perfect for a snack. The Montreal style bagel is slightly sweeter from the boiled honey, light, and fluffier than a normal bagel. The pork sandwich was my favorite! The Pork just melts in your mouth. The balance is the microgreens balance the salty pork. It was perfectly seasoned. A perfect bite.

This place was kind of disappointing. I was in town for the day on business. I went to grab a bagel sandwich for breakfast. I got the breakfast sandwich on a garlic bagel with turkey sausage. While I waited, I watched them make bagels in open wood burning oven. That was kind of cool. When they called my name I went up to the register to pay and grabbed what was essentially a lavender muffin. The sandwich was surprisingly bland. I'm not sure how they got a garlic bagel to not taste like anything but they did. The muffin had a layer of powdered sugar on top but was rolled in a layer of regular sugar. I took one bite and realized why it had so much sugar...it didn't taste like anything either.

Still the best freaking bagel sandwiches in all the land. The Montreal Spice bagel...addictive. With house made brisket?! What bagel shop makes their own brisket too? Oh, Myers does. It's all amazing. You can't go wrong by coming here!

Stopped by for a quick breakfast on our way up to the mountains. They have a great Covid set up to keep customers and employees feeling safe. We ordered the Ivan on the Montreal spice & cowboy Dan on the beer bagel. We took our bagels down to the water to enjoy them. The Montreal spice bagel was the star of the show as it packed a ton of flavor! I love the sweet and spicy combo of the Brie and sriracha. The bagel sandwiches were the perfect size the only downside was the amount of grease from the eggs was all over the place. Loved all the unique options!
