About this location
New Stand sits near gate 506 on Terminal 5's level-three row, a news-and-reading stop rather than a place to sit down and eat. Snacks share shelf space with magazines and books, the only reading-focused stop among the gate-500s counters — Melt Shop, Revolucion and Park Ave Emporium don't carry one. Hours aren't posted, so a traveler heading to gate 506 for a quick browse before boarding should treat it as a stop to check on arrival rather than plan around.
