Like AAnthony said. If I'm lifting heavier with less reps and more sets I tend to rest longer from 60-90 seconds. Where as if I'm lifting lighter with more reps, I rest for about 45-60 seconds.

As some of the previous people have posted, it really depends on YOU, your workout and your goal. But keep in mind, don't go off having a 5 minute break between sets. As I see this a lot at my gym when people like to chat away with and take 25+ minutes on a bench press, etc.
