Tucked away in the West End, this cozy spot specializes in hearty, generously filled bagels perfect for a quick breakfast or a leisurely lunch.
"Montreal-style bagels here: for the uninitiated, the dough contains eggs, they’re boiled in honey water, and they’re smaller and denser than the more famous New Yorker. Basic bagels start at £2 and go up to £3.50 for a schmear; hulking lunch affairs might be filled with pastrami and monterery jack, or scallion schmear and hot smoked salmon. Also in Leith and Portobello Beach." - James Hansen
"Bross Bagels, West End. When Bross Bagels opened their third location in the West End of Edinburgh, Canadian expats rejoiced! And they were not alone. A firm favourite in the city among locals and visitors alike, Bross is the place if you’re looking to find a delicious authentic Montreal style bagel. Boiled in honey water, with maple syrup baked right in the dough, and served with an assortment of toppings the results are truly delectable.Try “The Goy”, an everything bagel piled high with scrambled egg, smoked cheese, maple bacon, and a potato latke. Bross also sells their bagels by the dozen so when you inevitably become obsessed with this Canadian staple you can take some home with you for easy devouring."
