I posted this on Chowhound, but I thought I'd take a stab at posting here as well...

I'm looking for a good brunch place near a PATH station (in NYC) that can accommodate a group of 5-6. Two of the members of our party are coming in from Hoboken, so it would be most convenient for them if we could find a place near the PATH.

It would be an added bonus if the restaurant takes reservations. Price isn't too much of an issue, maybe $20-$30 per head including tax and tip. Any suggestions for reservation-accepting locations near the following stops?

Christopher & Hudson
9th & 6th
14th & 6th
23rd & 6th

I know that Tartine in the W Village (probably closest to the Christopher/Hudson and 9th/6th stops) does not take reservations. However, the fresh, baked-on-the premises breads and pastries, plus the Provencal-inspired breakast/brunch are really very good. It's also a BYOB, no corkage, in case you want some good stuff to quaff with.

Blue Ribbon Bakery on Bedford, also in W Village, is just OK. Some like, I'm not that impressed, it's not as good as the Sullivan Street dinner place. No reservations.

I think there are lots of choices. Village is right near the 9th & 6th location.

North Square in the Washington Square hotel isn't far from that same location and the Garage with live music is a few blocks away and a bargain brunch.

Tartine is YUM for brunch and worth the wait!

I love Tartine, and I would definitely wait, but 6 people could be a problem. Thank you all for the great suggestions!

Blue Ribbon Bakery does take reservations for parties of 5 or more. It's a 5 minute walk from the Christopher Street stop.

I'd also recommend the Cornelia Street Cafe, which is around the corner.
