Original Bagel, Vernon Hills

Original Bagel describes itself as "a good old-fashioned Jewish-style deli." And its menu proves that. Diners can stop by for bagels, and rye and challah bread baked daily. Those breads are among those that form the eatery's enormous sandwiches, which are filled with corned beef, turkey, or brisket—all cooked in house. And if those hearty handhelds aren't enough Original Bagel also makes its own salads, soups, and desserts.
