This review is taken from the current (2011) edition.
With an NYPD cruiser and a yellow taxi parked outside, Tribeca promises to bring the great breakfasts of the Big Apple to Partick. The cosy interior, decorated with original artwork inspired by New York, is tightly packed with tables, high stools at the bar, and tables outside for more optimistic diners. The portions are huge, in true American style, buttermilk pancakes stacked with maple syrup and crispy bacon are each an inch thick, the omelettes are made with five eggs each and the Manhattan – Tribeca’s take on the full breakfast – comes with hash browns, bacon, sausage, tomatoes grilled with oregano, three eggs and enormous slabs of granary toast. And of course, eggs Benedict and florentine are present at the head of the menu, poached eggs resting on a toasted bagel swimming in home-made hollandaise sauce. If you have room after that, to finish there is warm apple pie with ice-cream, chocolate fudge cake with whipped cream or the quintessential NY baked lemon cheesecake.
- High point: Huge and delicious American-style brunch
- Low point: Tables a bit cramped

Brilliant breakfast every time. Would recommend the french toast with syrup and bacon as well as the manhattan full breakfast. Good coffee and orange juice. Only downside is the prices.

Like the new refurbishment, but have just come back from lunch at Tribeca and will not ever return. I ordered the pancakes and syrup and the pancakes were inedible slices of rubber, and the syrup was a cheap sugary disgrace, despite being initially told it would be maple syrup. But all that is forgivable if the manager had simply refunded the pancakes - but despite my comments and disappointment, no such offer was made. Disappointing.

Don't go here if you are in a hurry! Although the food was really good, tasty and large protions. Service was very slow and both waiting staff didn't seem very with it, think they'd had a heavier night than us the night before! It took 20 minutes for our table to be cleared, another 10 minutes before they took our order because the waiter couldn't find a pen! Our drinks arrived after the food, as did the cutlery! Luckily we weren't too hungry when we arrived, but by the time the food actually came, we were starving! The cafe only has about 8 tables and with two waiting staff, the wait was really ridiculous.
