"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." - erin edwards, kindra peach

"The Lox Bagel Shop in Columbus serves hand-rolled bagels blending New York and Montreal styles. They offer a variety of sandwiches, including The Lox with capers and cream cheese, vegan options with nori-cured carrots, and unique creations like a cauliflower melt and mustardy pastrami."
"A Short North Arts District spot making hand-rolled bagels that blend New York and Montreal influences and pairing them with an expansive, imaginative sandwich menu—classics like the Lox with capers, onion and cucumber sit alongside vegan nori-cured carrot versions, a cauliflower melt, a Cubano take, and a mustardy pastrami. The shop keeps the core bagel selection intentionally small to prioritize quality, and sides like crispy croquette-style fried potatoes are recommended." - ByBon Appétit Staff & Contributors
"If you want to know what locals are lining up for right now, it’s the bagels at the Lox Bagel Shop. Run by industry veteran Kevin Crowley (Northstar Cafe, Third & Hollywood) with some help from chef Silas Caeton (Cosecha Cocina, Veritas), the cozy blue-tiled and oak-accented cafe serves live-fire baked bagels. Fittingly, you can’t go wrong with the house-smoked lox with perfectly biting pickles. But the tender pork sandwich with salsa verde crushed into the cream cheese is no slouch either." - Beth Stallings
