Bagels on Greene

4160, rue Sainte-Catherine O, Westmount, QC H3Z 1P4

Although it can't technically be called cozy anymore, what was once a small bagel shop has been transformed into a sprawling café, swallowing up neighbouring storefronts as it has expanded to accommodate its growing clientele. While the decor is reminiscent of a 1980s airport lounge, the food is amazing. In addition to fantastic bagels and coffees, the menu includes full breakfasts, pastries and delicious homemade Indian and Mexican meals. Bagels on Greene is worth the stop, and the steady stream of customers through its doors agrees.

Chez Nick is a Westmount institution. More diner than café, Nick's is nonetheless a fantastic place to curl up with a cup of coffee and a newspaper or to catch up with friends. The atmosphere is friendly and boisterous, and the food is fantastic. Try the generous bagel plate with lox and cream cheese, or order a hearty cup of coffee with a slice of homemade apple pie.
