One of the fun things about New York is that around every corner, when you least expect it you find yet another gem. That happened to me today.

I was out running around the city visiting clients and got hungry so stopped in for a quick lunch at THE PRIMEBURGER. It's located on 51st St, just east of 5th Ave, and in the shaddow of St. Pat's Cathedral.

I ordered a crab salad sandwich and it was GREAT, and really cheap by NY standards. Burgers are supposed to be their best sellers, and I watched a few go by so they looked really good, simple but good.

I was really surprise to see breakfast prices of $4.00-$6.00 which I thought was a really GREAT price, and I'm going to have to try that next time I am downtown.

There are always questions here of where to have a good breakfast, and here's a place I can recommend,......so enjoy~~~~

good input--we were in NYC last month,again, and ate breakfast everyday at ess's bagels across from the Courtyard Marriott.I coulnt believe the price of 2 toasted bagels w/butter and 2 coffees--$6!!I love NY bagels anyway,but these were especially delicious

Yes I agree about Essabagel, I lived next door to the location on 2nd Ave and most of the time, the line was litterally out the door.

I love finding New Yorky places that are good, and won't break the budget, and you guys have got to try this place.

Istopped in there again late yesterday and had a celeb siteing, just a booth away, A list actress, and we smiled at each other,,,,,,,,the owner told me that this is one of her hang outs. Also saw a couple of really tall guys at the back and figured they were NBA, since the NBA store is just around the corner.
