Mike's Bagels — Restaurant in New York

Mike's is the quintessential New York City bagel joint. No frills, all flavor, and lightning fast. It's always packed during the morning rush and at lunch, which is why they've never added seating -- literally just a counter and a fridge to the side with juices and sodas.
