Bonsignour

Around Greenwich Village, takeout fast-casual spots cluster along tree-lined side streets. Bonsignour at 35 Jane Street stakes a claim in the lunch-and-coffee fray, offering a short list of prepared dishes and beverages within minutes of Central Park’s southern edge.

Walk north from the West 4th subway station and you’ll find the brick storefront just past Seventh Avenue South. Orders are packed for breakfast alongside an organic salad bar, quick salads and vegetarian daily specials; grab a coffee to go or linger at the wraparound counter for a small plate.

A fast bite around midday is as simple as dialing (212) 229-9700. When you need the map, use the directions; the blue awning stands out on the block.
