    The owner of this establishment is one of the friendliest on the block. Which makes it hard not to like his decilious bagels. Whether you are enjoying one with butter or cream cheese or even a fancy sandwich there is no wrong answer when ordering at this establishment.

    Had a herb and cheese breakfast bagel, and it was delicious! The bagels are always fresh and they have a great selection. The sesame, and herb and cheese bagels are especially good

    One of my favourite breakfast spots in the market! Great selection of fresh bagel sandwiches with fast, friendly service. Lunch lines can get pretty long, but definitely worth the wait.

    Continental Bagel has amazingly dense and flavorful bagels. I go there on occasion and buy plain ones and just eat them like that. They are, of course, also delicious with cream cheese or whatever your preference, but I enjoy the taste of the bagel itself so much that it feels like a waste to mask it in any way. Highly recommended! Probably the absolute best bagels I’ve ever had, and I know my breads. Would eat as a dessert. Service, I will admit, is quite poor, and it’s not the most sanitary of places, but where is?

    Sometimes, when I am on my way through the Market with a destination other than a restaurant in mind, I like to stop for a bagel. A proper bagel. Boiled in sweetened water, liberally sesame seeded, and then cooked in a wood over. With cream cheese, smoked salmon, capers and a bit of red onion. Sounds good, eh? Continental Bagel Co. does do their bagels very well. They are all that a good bagel should be. Crispy exterior, soft interior. And that perfect taste. So why the poor rating? The service. They have always been hit and miss, but for a quick stop that hasn’t been a huge problem. Until they spectacularly missed today. When I arrived, I was the only one there – weekday, mid morning that is not a surprise. I place my order and the server/cashier starts making it. Only to stop twice to serve people who came in after me. Complete transaction – taking their orders, getting their food, taking their money. All while my lonely bagel and salmon wait, out in the open, for him to return. When I spoke to him, he was polite and apologetic. The owner came around to help complete my transaction since their debut machine was not working properly, and then proceeded to get angry at me, being quite rude, when the transaction failed a second time. So while this is indeed a good bagel, I can’t in good conscience recommend a place where, over multiple visits, the service is middling to poor. culinarykira.blogspot.com

    Let me start off by saying I eat bagels quite often, a Tim Horton’s breakfast sandwich, store bought bagels etc. that is what I always thought a bagel was, that was until today when I had a Continental bagel, they have ruined all other bagels for me for life, they are amazing. I didn’t think bagels could be this good. I had the smoked meat bagel sandwich and after one bite I knew I would never look at bagels the same again. I ended up buying a dozen right away and went home and crushed 3 of them.

    Fresh bagels are best bagels. Stopped for a breakfast bagel sandwich, right when the sesame seed bagels were coming out of the oven. The egg (which there was a lot of) was heated in the microwave, but the sandwich was easily the best bagel sandwich I’ve ever had. Having the fresh bagel (still steaming when sliced) with melted cheddar cheese was just awesome. My spouse got the vegetarian sandwich and liked it, but the breakfast sandwich was better.
