What A Bagel

This 4 star rating is exclusively for their deliciously fresh and soft bagels that I pick up early mornings almost every weekend. I buy my bagels literally straight from the oven when they are warm and melt in your mouth. Add a little smear of butter and it’s a great way to start the weekend.
I’ve become so accustomed to the consistency of their great bagels that I refuse to buy anything else from this place, lest I be disappointed. Perhaps their challah bread is not the best? Who knows?
The proprietors are great people too: very friendly and hospitable.
Thank you What A Bagel for helping me start my weekends right.

Bagels here are pretty good. Soft yet crunchy but 4 stars bc a small everything with vegetable creamcheese turned out to $ 4! A little over priced but the person that made my bagel was very generous with the creamcheese. I would def come back!

Very over priced and products are not baked properly, under baked at times. Only when there is no alternative do I go in there.

I do like this place. Their bagels are decent, and they are always fresh out of the oven. Their other baked goods are not bad either.
But there’s a big problem. Some of the counter items are very pricey. Case and point: small container of egg salad: -$ 8.
small container of tuna salad: ~$ 10
Yikes.

OMG, best… tuna…sandwiches…ever! I ordered mine on a small challah roll and made record timing devouring it. They have a great selection of bagels, rolls, etc and a simple yet satisfying menu. The staff are really friendly and it’s conveniently located on Eglinton W.
The only thing is that because of its size, this place feels more like a bakery, where you order something and take it home. It does offer a small section with tables but probably can’t seat more than 6 people at one time. There is a picnic bench conveniently located right outside, which is seasonal as you can imagine.
I haven’t been to their other locations but I’m sure their bagel/​sandwich selection is just as good. If you’re ever in the neighbourhood and fiending for some good eats then make sure to pop on by to this little bagel hotspot.

Generally, I like the components of the «What A Bagel» chain. Decent, fresh bagels, good traditional (Jewish) pastries and great stuff for the bagels. A variety of cream cheese, and above average tuna and egg salad. Some have an excellent salad «bar». (Not self-​serve, but made to your preferences.)
This one, however, seems like a stock room for one of the nicer ones. It’s small, cluttered and a bit frayed around the edges. The basic ingredients (bagels, toppings) are of the same quality, but just in much smaller quantities and selection.
The moral? Don’t come here expecting the WAB at Leslie and York Mills or Yonge and Eglinton. If you want some bagels to go or a quick tuna sandwich, this place will do.

They have fairly good bagels, and decently priced if you take them to go.
However, if you get condiments and cream cheese the prices go up like crazy.
I’ll stick to Tims until I can afford this place.

This is what my family gets for our bagel brunch tradition after we fly in to visit relatives.
This Los Angeles native and Jewish kid LOVES what a bagel!
