Venerable, no-frills stop for hand-rolled, wood-oven bagels plus cream cheese & cured meats.
"Ottawa isn’t lacking for Montreal-style bagels thanks to Bagelshop. Since 1984, the shop has been turning out sesame seed-coated, rink-shaped dough, boiled in honey water, and finished in a wood oven. The bagels are similar to options at St-Viateur Bagel in Montreal, where the shop got its recipe, though Bagelshop does claim to offer the only wood-fired sourdough bagel in Canada, as well as tasty sandwiches and babka." - Joel Balsam, Tim Forster, Eater Staff
