Great little corner bakery / cafe that serves up good pastries and desserts. Their prices include tax, so what you see is the price you pay! This shop supports locally sourced vendors and really has a family type vibe to it. Give it a try and you won't be disappointed.

Coffee is great here and they offer free refills! Espresso drinks are great as well. Bakery items are pretty good and the eclairs are a local favorite. I love the carrot cake sandwich cookies too!

You're best bet for food is the biscuit sandwich. Unfortunately, I find a lot of the other food ...

I really want to give them 5 stars, but I can't.
Lovely people, they pay a living wage so no tipping. The atmosphere is great, service is great, but the food is always disappointing. Bland, Midwestern boring. I was excited to see beautiful biscuits in the display case, only to bite into unsalted th...

I only did a takeout order but the cafe seemed pretty cute on the inside. In a great location with a lot of street parking (though I went at a non busy time).

The biscuit sandwich was pretty good for how inexpensive it was. They've also moved away from a tip based format which I really like. I fe...

Great place to meet friends, responsible business owners, fair wages for workers.
Good job practicing physical distancing.
The only critique I can give in that regard, is that when I tried to order online, the payment field where I was to enter my card's expiration date information.
Most of the ...

The food was delicious and reasonably priced (1$, not 3). They don't make their employees rely on tips, that money is included in the menu. The staff were great and the patio was lovely. The atmosphere was focused on the local community and socially conscious.

I can't believe people and their bad reviews. I am have never received anything less than great service. Once I had to wait awhile for my food, hmm, who knew that a great cafe would be busy on a weekend morning in the city? No the place More

Everything on the menu is great, according to several friends of mine. I started with the spicy hot chocolate and recommend it. I also had quiche and a pancake which were very tasty. True to their name, they are generous with the delicious butter. I will certainly be returning to try more of the...

What a cool spot! This cafe is community-centered and great for meetups. The atmosphere is bright and engaging and the menu is quality. They serve food and drinks in actual dishware of plates and mugs. They are well-staffed, but the wait can be somewhat long at times. There's a lot of seating. The f...

This place has delicious coffee and food. They use high quality, local ingredients which taste delicious and give the place a leg up over other cafes in my opinion. It seems very community oriented and has been one of my favorite spots since moving to the neighborhood a year ago. I love their daily ...

Update since becoming tip free. With the price increases and the increased time it takes to make food now for some reason, Butter is no longer a good place to go on the weekends. The food is pretty much the same. Time is everything. And waiting 30 minutes for something that used to take 8 minutes ...

I absolutely love this local cafe. All the foods are made from scratch from local farms & sources. They have a homemade breakfast buiscut to die for. The butter buiscut is fluffy & always fresh, comes with egg, avocado, sprouts, tomato & garlic spread if you like. Delicious bakery, just tried their...

Can I give this place a 10 out of 5 rating? Butter bakery is seriously one of the best places I've ever eaten at. I ordered the turkey sandwich and the bun was still warm! All of the ingredients were fresh and absolutely delicious. Keep up the great work!

I recently went back for the first time in several months, and my impression now is the same as it was then: superior food, inferior coffee. Yes, I know their coffee is peacefully grown and fairly traded, and delivered by virgins riding low-carbon bicycles -- it still doesn't taste very good, at lea...

Butter Bakery Cafe was a delightful surprise! I had the tofu scramble and my friend had the breakfast burrito. Delicious- but the apple honey scone topped it all! I did wish that it had been a little warmer in the dining area, the metal chairs are chilly. But all and all, a great meal and atmosphere...

Last year the owner abolished tipping and marketed that he was paying his employees a living wage. It turns out that he just raised his prices and is paying poverty wages to his employees. The service is terrible and the business is failing. Do not support this greedy business owner.

We usually have a lot of out-of-town visitors at our place, and we always bring them here or pick up goodies for their first morning with us!

My favorites are: the carrot cake whoopie pie, their biscuit sandwich, or their rotating scone choices. Their coffee and cold brew is also top notch.

Can I spend multiple whole work days here? Yes! Refillable coffee and hibiscus berry tea, I'm gonna be here for a while. Food is fresh and great--no tip establishment so you know they pay fair wages. Great community feel...love my neighborhood coffee shop.
