The seats aren't that comfortable and it can be very crowded at peak hours, but the Dean & Deluca at Time Warner Center is worth a stop. The counter staff almost always have smiles on their faces, they pull a nice espresso and there are goodies from Balthazar and other NY bakeries. What more could you ask for? Oh, right! It is inside of Borders, so you can grab a sneak peek at a bestseller before you buy it. Settle in with a book, a latte and a snack for about $6. Try to score one of the booth seats as they are more comfortable.
