Really? I ordered a latte and paid $4.25 for it. It got cold and I wanted to warm it up. So they charged me another four dollars to refill my half a cup! This is the first place that has ever done that! Really? If you order a cuppa coffee for four dollars you get free refills! Other than that, the food is good.

Butter Café is hands-down the best breakfast spot in town. From the moment you walk in, the cozy atmosphere and friendly staff make you feel like you’re part of the family. Their breakfast menu is a masterpiece. The coffee is another highlight. They brew locally roasted beans, and the flavor is robust and smooth. Whether you’re a fan of a classic drip or a frothy cappuccino, Butter Café has you covered. Service is quick, attentive, and cheerful, even during the morning rush. The prices are reasonable for the quality and generous portions, making it a fantastic value. If you’re looking for a breakfast that’s comforting, delicious, and a little indulgent, Butter Café should be at the top of your list. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Would I return? I’ll probably be back tomorrow!

Outstanding! If you have only one ability to go, then you must go here. It was one of the most enjoyable meals of my life. The attention to detail is supreme. The place is beautiful and the most efficiently run restaurant we have ever been to. When the served my freshly squeezed orange juice ice cold in a frozen glass I knew this place was different. It only got better from there. Our food was incredible. The menu is expansive. The coffee was delicious and the price point is wonderful. Our server was so good that I thought she had ESP. Before I could ask for something she was pointing it out on the table because she had already brought it. I wish we had a Butter's where I live. I'd go every day.

We had a great breakfast at the Hayden Rd location — whole hog skillet was recommended by a local and was hearty and very good, including the link sausage we shared. My wife really enjoyed the Swedish pancakes and their excellent hot chocolate. A few days later we had lunch at the Mayo Blvd location with equally great results - chorizo burrito and the berry crepes were very good! This is our new favorite when visiting Scottsdale.

I heard a rumor about this place. I heard that, if you arrive just as they open (6:30 AM) on a weekday, you might not have to wait in line. Otherwise, be assured that there will be a waitlist; I've been told that the wait on weekends here can be two hours long. Butters does serve lunch, but I'm not sure why you'd bother with that when you can go for such a great variety of omelettes, French toast, Benedicts, crepes, and pancakes. Speaking of the latter, order the Swedish pancakes. Three enormous, thin (almost crepe-like), eggy, slightly sweet pancakes, complemented perfectly by the tart wild Swedish lingonberry sauce. Delicious! The staff here all seem to be young, which is helpful given how much they have to hustle to keep up with the crowds. This location is in a shopping mall. Watch yourself in the parking lot, as people zip through it. Parking spaces close by can be tough to find.

The food here is the best! My husband and I went for breakfast and we both thought it was excellent. A lot of food items are on the menu. Definitely there is something for everyone here. I had the avocado toast which came with 2 poached eggs and a side of choice. I chose the homemade hash browns and so did my husband- hash browns are the bomb here! My husband ordered the eggs rojo with chicken and it was great! The sauce was perfectly flavored. The fresh squeezed orange juice is good and so is the coffee.

We were at Butters on November 17, 2023, for breakfast. Our server, Adriana S, was excellent. She was personable and friendly. Because of my gluten and dairy intolerance, she went out of her way to ensure that the food I ordered did not affect my sensitivities. She had to check with the manager so that our “to-go” box was not Styrofoam. She should be in charge of training others in customer service. The food was excellent, also.

Really delicious breakfast. We arrived at 10 and there was a long line. Told us 25 minutes but it didn’t take that long. They were quick about cleaning tables. I had a veggie omelette with grits and pancakes. Delicious. My friends ordered hash browns which were more like thinly sliced potatoes and really good. The lingonberry Swedish pancakes were crispy around the edges. Sooooo good! Highly recommend.

I wish this was a chain restaurant that would make it's way to Ohio. This was the most amazing breakfast. The best pancakes I've ever had. They were so light and fluffy and there were so many options. The orange is fresh squeezed and so sweet without the acidity you get with store bought OJ. I suggest getting the pancakes as a side. You can try one of the other amazing dishes and still enjoy these amazing pancakes. They are pretty big so one was enough. I got the Santa Fe Skillet with Banana Cream Pancake and my husband got the Corned beef hash skillet with cinnamon roll pancake. Everything was amazing. The service was great too. Attentive and knowledgeable wait staff that took the time to explain the menu. The service was fast so we were in and out in no time. It was reasonably priced.

Always like to find a good breakfast place when visiting this area. We have never had a bad experience, but this could possibly be the best. Recommended by a friend, four of use tried it out. About a 45 minute wait just past 9, but well worth is. I'll start with the fresh squeezed oj. A small was plentiful, a large would be better it ws so good. All of the food was cooked well, and there was no shortage of it. Omelettes appeared to be either three of four eggs. You can build your own or order from many varieties. You can choose toast or pancakes as a side, or for $2 more really fancy up the pancakes. One of us choose the banana pancakes. He ate only those, which was a breakfast by themselves. He took the omelette home for two more meals. The regular pancakes were light and fluffy, and very flavorful. Irish Egg Benedict was wonderful. Don't think you can go wrong with any of it. The friend who sent us told about a plate size waffle with a side of thick sliced bacon that was great. Next time.

Early Saturday morning visit. It was fairly busy at 0700, however was seated immediately. Staff were very friendly, coffee and water received promptly. Large variety of breakfast items…….seems to have everything one could imagine for breakfast, eggs benny, omelettes, bowls, waffles and pancakes plus more! I had the Mexican omelette with hash browns and toast. My companions ordered a bowl with pancakes instead of toast, the other had scrambled eggs with pancakes. I was impressed with the size of the portions, large and therefore very filling. The food was good although I would have preferred the omelette to be a bit “spicier” I added hot sauce to the already added green sauce. Companions were happy with their meals too. Coffee was good, and when ready to leave we were offered coffees to go at no extra charge, a nice touch. Reasonably priced as well about $15/pp ($70 with tip for 3 )

We had nearly an hour wait on a Sunday morning, but it was worth it: You definitely will not leave here hungry! The cinnamon roll French toast sated my usually insatiable sweet tooth, and my companion, who's not much of a breakfast eater, consumed most of her baked potato omelette because it was that delicious. And despite the restaurant being busy, the service was efficient and friendly.

Hey y'all I ordered the harvest chicken salad sandwich from the location off of Hayden in Scottsdale and there is a fly in my chicken salad sandwich. I can not tell you how nasty and just plain wrong tht is. Never ever will I ever eat at Butters again.

I told my server Ashly I didn’t want to sound dramatic, but this was the best pancake breakfast I’ve had in my life. The eggs were over medium cooked to perfection and incredibly tasty. Another reviewer recommended the Swedish Pancakes, and he was so right, delicious!! I’m a perfectionist and this place is buzzing with activity yet the servers are all working in concert and taking care of customers at a quick efficient pace. The latte was rich, smooth, and full bodied. I can’t think of one more thing they could do better. There is a reason that this place is Number 5 restaurant in Scottsdale. Ashly was an awesome server!! Bravo.

We arrived a little before 8:20am and it was perfect timing. We only waited 3ish minutes. Our waitress was friendly and efficient. The coffee was hot, and they used real cream. The food was delicious, hot, and just as we ordered. Watching the waitresses interact with each other, saying thank you and serve another table, or bring coffee to others was heartwarming. Team work at its best! Kudos to the crew for setting the bar high! You won't be sorry eating here. There is something for every taste! We will be back.
