Lox + Schmear

Lox + Schmear is a Sunday staple in my house. Everything is divine -- and I mean *everything.* There is not a single item on the menu with which you can go wrong, but my personal favourites are the tuna salad, chopped egg salad, and lemon + pepper lox.

Lev has built a truly incredible business, and I cannot recommend it enough!

The smoked salmon here is so good! Really tasty and great texture - not slimy at all like some smoked salmon can be. Also the smoked trout salad is amazing - on a bagel, on crackers, or just on its own. We ordered for the first time the other day and I'll definitely be back.

Your life won’t be complete without Lox and Schmear. I am never without several packs of their smoked salmon, smoked trout, and pickled onions and capers. Their smoked trout salad is my favourite afternoon snack, and their freshly baked babkas are mind blowing.

It’s obvious how much love and care goes into their food. Lox and Schmear will allow you to step up your brunch game, and will bring so much joy into your life.

Also, Lev is a wonderful human. So it’s a win win!

This is seriously the best salmon I have ever had!!!! (Don't tell my grandmother). It's tastes unbelievably fresh and you can tell that it's prepared with such care and attention to detail. If I could I would eat it every day.
Even though the lox is clearly the star of the show let's not forget to appreciate the scallion cream cheese!! Without it my life would be significantly worse.
Here's my personal advice on how best to enjoy this place: Order for Sunday pick up, get a pack of bagels of your choice (they're all good), a pack of the original house smoked lox, some scallion cream cheese, and a can of cold brew or a pack of coffee beans. Just like that you have the perfect mid-Sunday feast. If you're feeling spicy get the pickled jalapenos as well they're really good! I don't think you could actually go wrong with any item on the menu.
