If you already have a good pedestrian vehicle: a good bike lock.
I (and lockpicking lawyer) recommend the kryptonite evolution. Good balance of price and protection.
For a step up I recommend the kryptonite fahgettaboutit.
Either way, bolt cutters aren't getting in, and portable angle grinders will take a little while because the chain is annoying to grind.
I see too many expensive bikes chained up with thin little locks.
The evolution costs as much as my very good MTB...
Yup! That recommendation is at best for those >2000โฌ bikes at best
This is the one I'm talking about, $75

If your bike is worth over $300 then imo it's worth it, now that every douchebag has a mini bolt cutter in their backpack (around here)
