Row NYC is located quite close to Bryant Park. There is a Whole Foods Grocery Store across from Bryant Park, if you want groceries, pastries for breakfast, etc.
In Bryant Park, there are some kiosks, including one selling some Breads Bakery items.
I often stay on W44th, between 5th and 6th Ave. It doesn’t have the Disney / Big Mall vibe of Times Square.
The location of Row NYC is fine. It is difficult to find rooms with 2 Queen beds in many parts of Manhattan, and most of the time, when I’ve needed a room with 2 beds, I’ve ended up on W 44th. W 44th is not as glitzy-cheesy as the massive hotels on 7th Ave and on Broadway.
There are a few cheaper hotels in the W 30s that have large family rooms, but the immediate area nearby is not as nice for a tourists, in terms of walking around with kids, on a first visit. My friend stayed at a hotel around W 38, and it isn’t a nice place to walk after hours. I know this because I walked to and from her hotel a couple times from my hotel closer to NoMad and there were a few unpleasant blocks.
There is a diner / coffee shop called the Red Flame, located at 44th W and 6th,
which is a typical Greek-run NYC-style coffee shop/diner/luncheonette, if you want bacon and eggs, an omelette or pancakes.

The food will not wow, compared to a Instagram wow -type breakfast spot , such as https://clintonstreetbaking.com/, further south, but it’s a very typical old-fashioned NYC type spot near Row NYC. Regular locals, not foodies, and tourists.
I end up eating most of my meals outside the Times Square / Midtown West area, I just use the hotel as a base.
Your dollar will go further for your meals, and you’ll likely have better meals, if you travel outside the Times Square area.
If you are watching your food budget carefully, you might also consider some of the Food Halls rather than restaurants with table service, at lunch.
There’s one under the Rockefeller Centre (concourse level), one near Columbus Circle (excellent salteñas at Bolivian Llama Patty, even if that particular Food Hall’s atmosphere is a little depressing) , another under the Plaza Hotel, on under Grand Central station.
