Apple Butter Cafe has a varied menu, cute decor, and a great service attitude. My son and I enjoyed a good breakfast. I ordered the Meat Lover's Bowl ($14) and my son tried the Monte Cristo Sandwich ($12.5). Both dishes had large portions and were excellently presented. Beware of the booze. They don't have a full liquor license so their version of a Bloody Mary is served with what they call "Wine Alcohol". Fortunately our waiter warned us when we were ordering, so we skipped the Bloody Mary. read more

Stopped by here for a quick coffee before lunch elsewhere Truth be told , the restaurant looked very cute and insta worthy from the decor and the line of people waiting to get in We didn't have to wait too long for a table maybe about 15 mins The menu looked very enticing as did the food that I could see being served- definitely would come here again and try the breakfast items Our coffees were delicious- on the sweet side but pretty and average prices Staff were fine- it's a busy place read more

This was our second visit to Apple Butter Cafe, and once again it was a wonderful experience. I ordered the Apple Butter Grilled Cheese without the apple butter, since they provide jars of it at every table and I figured I could add it myself. The sandwich comes with Gouda cheese, bacon, and Granny Smith apple slices, such a delicious combination. I did try it with a little apple butter, but personally preferred it without. My husband ordered the Buffalo Chicken Wrap, which was tasty, though it came with a lot of tomatoes that weren't mentioned on the menu. The service has been consistently friendly and attentive on both visits, and we really enjoy the relaxed atmosphere and the fresh, homemade food. read more

Best breakfast in St Pete! Waffles, potatoes, chicken....all top notch! This spot is a must try.

Apple Butter Café in Seminole, Florida, is a true hidden gem that delivers an exceptional breakfast experience from start to finish. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with a warm smile and attentive service that makes you feel right at home. The staff goes above and beyond to ensure every detail is perfect, creating a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere that's ideal for starting your day. Once upon a time ago, Apple Butter was part of the 3 Trip's restaurants that were sold locally. Two were bought together but the restaurant now known as Apple Butter Café was bought separately by Shannon, one of the servers there. I believe that's accurate. The homemade apple butter that sits on every table, is fresh made from one of here mother's recipes. I ordered the two eggs your way with home fries and toast, and everything was cooked to absolute perfection. The eggs were exactly as requested--fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. The home fries were golden and crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and the toast was thick with a side of butter, completing the plate beautifully. Every bite tasted homemade, showing the care and quality that goes into each dish. The service at Apple Butter Café truly stands out. Our server was friendly, attentive, and made sure our coffee cups were never empty. The staff's professionalism and genuine hospitality made the entire experience feel personal and memorable. Apple Butter Café is the kind of place that keeps you coming back--not just for the delicious food, but for the exceptional service and cozy, welcoming vibe. Whether you're a local or just passing through Seminole, this café is a must-visit for a breakfast that's done right in every way. read more

A really nice non-chain diner ... had a great breakfast! Lots of seating, booths and tables on a checkerboard floor, and a counter you could sit at as well. Their bowls seem popular.. I had one of their Benedict choices... although not technically a Benedict, the "Cowboy Benedict" combines biscuits and sausage gravy with poached eggs (plus sausage patties). My wife had an omelette with Swiss and Spinach. The home fries are nicely cooked and not at all greasy. Everything was well prepared and flavorful. Oh, and the Apple Butter is fantastic on sourdough. Service was what you would hope for in a diner.., swift, professional and friendly. Coffee mugs never went empty! read more

Apple Butter Cafe is wonderful, except for their apple butter! I was excited to try it but was saddened in disappointment. It tastes like apple sauce... My biscuits and gravy were tasty though! The biscuits were fluffy, and the gravy was definitely "the gravy on top". You can select your protein, and I chose the Santa Fe sausage. The home fries, OMG, the crispiest. Probably the best I've ever had! My friends enjoyed their classic benedicts. The interior reminds me of an old school diner. Lots of red and black and white. I dig it! Our server was welcoming and did a great job. Must try if you're looking for a classic diner style meal! read more

Mighty Fine Breakfast Apple Butter Café is comfortable and friendly. My server was very pleasant and attentive. Prices were fair. This was my second visit. I always judge my breakfast at any restaurant by ordering the same 5 items. My eggs were reasonably fluffy and had flavor. So many places serve eggs that are flat and bland. Here they had obviously been cooked with a decent amount of butter and salt. Surprisingly, the grits were very good. I've become jaded about finding good grits in Pinellas County. They're usually a sticky clump or soupy and with no flavor. These were very good. The large piece of ham was nicely seared on the grill and was very tasty. Same goes for their biscuit--cut in half and nicely seared. The French toast was a little weaker than the rest. It had nice flavor but was not fully cooked through, so it collapsed in the middle when cut--another common problem. They could do a better job on the exterior of the restaurant. The same dead plant has been in the pot near the door for months. The walkways and parking lot should be swept. Fortunately, the first impression of the exterior doesn't carry through to the interior. I'd happily return, trying more items on the menu. read more

Good food,and good service with classic dinner vibe. I got the chicken fried steak and it was tender and tasty. The poached eggs were perfectly cooked. My son and wife got a southern Benedict which they both loved. Parking is the only downside. read more

My favorite breakfast in Florida! My husband and I came here on the last morning of our vacation and it did not disappoint! We immediately noticed the homemade apple butter sitting on the table. It was more of a sauce-consistency but great flavor regardless. For my breakfast, I ordered the cowboy omelet which was stuffed with plenty of sausage, onions and melty cheese. My favorite part was the country gravy it was topped with. If you put it in a bowl, I could eat it like a soup, it was that good! And those grits!! I'm from the northeast where we do not have these so I decided to try them and OMG; I absolutely loved them!! I already want to come back here on our next trip to Florida! :) read more

I went here because I loved the former owners and food. I was happy to learn a former server was now the owner! The service was great and the food was excellent!

Stopped in for a mid-week late morning meeting and was pleased with so many things! Great selection reasonably priced food. Portions were filling and well prepared - I had a Benedict, companion had an omelette. Both had fresh veggies (type chosen) & nice side of hash browns. Service was attentive but not pushy, we spent time on business discussion & never felt rushed. He checked on our coffee refills multiple times. My first time here, but not my last! read more

The coffee was so weak, watered down to a consistency of light brown water. I eat out a lot, I've never had such weak coffee. Great service though. read more

The omelet here was amazing! The fruit wasn't the best, but not bad either. The potatoes were a bit too greasy for me, so I wouldn't recommend those. The biscuit with apple butter was good! The service was incredible and the atmosphere is cute, but nothing special. It's a nice place for breakfast, very much a casual little diner. read more

gave try with 19 month old son and was asked if we were ok sitting at the bar. Half restaurant was closed off I guess they only had two waiters working. Lost our business read more

This was a disappointment. I read the reviews and insisted on spending with the locals. I was excited to see That they have outside seating but as I got closer I realized that the space was unkept and looked like a last resort option. Tip: if you're going to have outdoor seating make it look inviting by keeping it tidy and welcoming. Once seated inside we noticed how filthy the window sill was with lots of little dead flies and Ketchup splashed on the sun shade. We looked at each other and the vote was unspoken "Let's Go". It was unfortunate but a no for us! read more

My first time here. I decided to go big and order the country fried steak and eggs and it was absolutely delicious! The country, gravy was one of the best I've had with the right combination of sausage and black pepper. You can have the fries either with caramelized onions or without. I chose the caramelized and was very happy with my choice. Sherry, my server, was so friendly and awesome and recommended the marbled rye toast, which I bought. Definitely coming back! read more

Wow! I have ordered from here for pick up a few times, and finally just had the chance to eat in person. I am blown away. This is great quality, delicious food, at great prices.

First time here was absolutely amazing so we decided to go back. Not sure what happened the food was cold and we did find a hair in the food. We told the server and they handled it with excellence and did everything they could to make our experience better. We all got breakfast and other than the minor issues the food was great. We appreciate how attentive the server was so make sure we had a good time. Maybe a fluke but will try again soon. read more

Threw me for a loop when I saw the new sign up and Tripp's was no more. So I swung in to see if anything changed. A lot was similar but different enough where it felt like a new restaurant. The rumor is an employee bought the place and revamped it, and I love that storyline if true. The thing you get right away is that they really nail the basics. Perfect bacon, over medium eggs not too runny, etc. First visit was a success, looking forward to exploring the new menus more. read more

Very happy we chose to come here! In the same location where Trip's Diner used to be, one of the waitresses bought this building to open Apple Butter Cafe. It was so packed when we got there (noon on a Saturday) I had to park next door! But we got seated right away. Menu is huge, lots to choose from, I had a hard time deciding! The breakfast menu alone was very big, which I was happy with, I like selection! Every table has a jar of apple butter on it, which I thought was a cute touch and it was yummy. The bacon was thick cut and absolutely delicious. Have to go back and try their lunch menu. Only open til 3 so make sure you get in early! read more
