This Short North cafe is a bagel shop that combines New York and Montreal styles: their options are boiled and then baked over fire for a crispy exterior. You can get the usual flavors and while there are plenty of sandwiches to choose from, the pastrami, egg, and cheese one paired with crispy fried potato wedges is a sure bet. For something lighter, opt for The Lox’s namesake sandwich with zesty capers and crisp onion—they make a vegan version as well. We also love stopping by for lunch when they serve cubans, egg salad sandos, and weekly specials like spiced Moroccan lamb sandwiches.
