Ryan Horne+FollowMontreal bagels land in AllstonMontreal-style bagels are now a Boston reality, thanks to Park Bagelry & Café opening in Allston. After two years of perfecting recipes, the team is serving up hand-shaped bagels with a sourdough tang, baked in a wood-fired oven for that signature chewy bite and hint of maple. With flavors like jalapeño cheddar and blueberry lemon jam, plus locally sourced flour, these bagels are made to be savored—no toaster needed. The café’s bright, welcoming space is perfect for lingering with friends over coffee and a fresh bagel. Who’s already tried them, and what’s your go-to flavor? #Food #AllstonEats #MontrealBagels00Share
