Directions

Bubby's is a beloved neighborhood brunch spot in Tribeca known for scratch-made American comfort food with a homey feel. The James Beard-winning pancakes are fluffy and filling (sharing encouraged), and the fried chicken and spicy chicken burger are standouts. Expect significant weekend waits of 30-45 minutes for smaller parties, though larger groups of 6+ often get seated faster—reservations are recommended.
