Lunch near Bryant Park?
Greetings!
Will be taking mom and friend to the holiday shops at Bryant Park on Sunday. The Grill is booked for the timeframe we need unfortunately. Looking for a good, casual place to have lunch nearby (i.e. close since they are seniors). Mom's not a hugely adventurous eater - a good soup, sandwich, piece of pie (in a upbeat atmosphere) would be her choice.
Any suggestions?

I just read about someone really having a bad time at that Le Pain. I've eaten there and liked it but I think they're not able to handle the crowds coming from Bryant Park. The Cafe or the restaurant in the Morgan Library is an idea if you can get a reservation (and you like the looks of the menu). http://www.themorgan.org/visit/dining.asp
The Cinema Cafe at 2 east 45 st. is not a bad option. http://www.cinemarestaurants.com/cinema45.html

Hale and Hearty is a local chain, lots of different soups, sandwiches and salads, soups average about $6. for 16 oz size. Bread or oyster crackers come with. The food is fresh the soups are good, the menu rotates. Most locations are very busy lunch places, mostly take out with a few seats.

cinema cafe may fit the bill. it's reliable, and in fact has a couple of locations, but somehow escaped that chain-ey feel. i eat at hale and hearty frequently, but always take it back to work as it's not really a sit down place.

Hey - thanks so much everyone. Any of these could fit the bill. Because its a Sunday in December and I expect it will be busy (understatement) we'll have options!
Thanks again.....Zoome
