after many years i'm glad to still have this gem around, i know its difficult to keep a business open in this area so im grateful it's still here and thriving! i love trying out their seasonal drinks like their different matchas. the inside is always kept well cleaned and i like how they have their to go trays up front free to grab so you don't have to bother anyone. my only complaint recently would be the customer service of a certain employee, she is tall with dark curly hair and glasses. i haven't had one good interaction with her yet. i get up to the register to order and i never receive a "hi" "hello" "how are you" "what can i get for you today" all i get is a stare, and when she gives me my food she doesn't say anything either not one "here you go" "have a good day", i've also noticed she doesn't greet the customers in front of me either‍ not sure if this is her first job but greeting your customers truly is the bare minimum on a better note, this place has the best fries and tater tots!! super crispy every time! i'm also a fan of their chipotle or spicy ranch? i'm not sure what exactly it's called. and just like every other review i also really like their breakfast burrito, i normally get full off of just half! read more

I've been coming to butter cafe for a while now. I either come to dine in or I'll just DoorDash when I'm feeling lazy. Their crispy potato things are so good and the portions here are huge. My go to meal here is their breakfast burrito. I get the chorizo and sausage. I love their hot sauce, salsa and sour cream that comes with it. It always hits. Never have I had a bad burrito here. I also like their honey matcha. It's so darn delicious and refreshing! When I do dine in the restaurant has great lighting and always so clean. The service is very friendly and attentive. I will be coming here plenty of times as long as they stay open. I know they have another location in Upland, but I live really close by the San Dimas location. Keep up the great work. Food is always amazing when I come here. read more

Butter Cafe... HOW do you keep doing this?! Came back again and had Kevin's Breakfast Sandwich (pictured) and WOW--this thing is next level. Stacked with prosciutto, pesto, garlic mayo, arugula, provolone, and egg... every single bite hits. That pesto + garlic mayo combo?! Absolutely ridiculous--in the best way possible. Do yourself a favor and ask for extra garlic mayo... trust me. Then I tried the gluten-free "almost flourless" lemon cake (pictured) and I was NOT ready. Mind officially blown. It's light, not overly sweet, and that lemon + almond combo is insanely good. Like... I'm still thinking about it. Butter Cafe does not miss. At all. Chill, cozy ambiance, and the staff always has that genuinely happy, good vibes energy that just makes you want to come back. Already looking forward to the next visit read more

Stopped by here on Saturday morning and it was great. The food was delicious. The breakfast burrito was loaded and had a nice balance of eggs, potatoes and sausage. The French toast were loaded and moist. The restaurant was packed but our food came out pretty quickly. There was plenty of seating inside and a little outside. read more

Get the potatoes!!! These are the best potatoes I have ever had in my life. They were crunchy with a soft center and piled high with my omelette. My kids both got the kids pancake breakfast and the pancakes were nice and fluffy. Every thing is served on disposable dishware and take out utensils. The restaurant has about 12 tables, but not good for large groups. It's pretty packed on weekends, but a table usually opens up fairly quick. 2 adult meals and 2 kids meal ran us about $60. read more

Such a cute cafe and bakery. I can for lunch and had the Adobo Rice. It was SO flavorful, I am craving it again as I write this review! Also got their chai iced coffee and the gluten-free lemon almond cake. Even though not knowingly I walked it just before closing I was quickly attended to and served. They were so kind about it too! Thank you for not pushing me out even though it was almost closing time. Next time ... I want to try breakfast like the Ube pancakes read more

Wow ,,,, delicious ! I had the breakfast sandwich with tater tots . Everything is fresh and excellent. The staff that work there are very nice. They greet you with a smile and are just very polite. Always a plus . This little café is really clean. The seats are comfortable. It has a really cool mellow atmosphere that just invites a nice relaxing time. They have seating outside, so if you want to sit in the patio area and just enjoy the day. I totally recommend checking this place out if you're in the area or you haven't. (side note) I drive past this place almost days because of my job and I was feeling like a breakfast sandwich and this one came up on yelp in my area.... And I was not disappointed at all. just some good food nice atmosphere and the price is reasonable. (crunch crunch crunch) me eating tater tots read more

You place your order at the counter, and they call out your name when it's ready. The pandan French toast caught my eye, so I got it as part of a breakfast combo with eggs and spam. Unfortunately, it was just regular brioche bread with green food coloring--there wasn't a hint of pandan flavor, which was disappointing. I met up with a couple of friends who had a breakfast sandwich with crispy potatoes and a breakfast burrito, which looked like better options. My friend also ordered a side of tater tots, and it came in a huge, bucket-sized portion! read more

First time here, I love to try a different coffee places that I've never been to before and this place is exactly that. I went with the house favorite the cookie milk however I'm not a big fan of whole milk, so Maria suggested the oat with mocha, which was honestly very good. She offered great suggestions was very friendly and attentive, and even her suggested sounded really good when I let her know what I was looking For. Coffee taste, fresh and ready to order. I would definitely come back as she suggested the breakfast burrito. read more

5 stars for service. I clicked and re-clicked the stars- 4 or 5, 4 or 5?! I ended at 4 because I'm not judging service alone. Let it be said again though, that service is 5 star. Sometime there's a line, but it's worth the wait. I've been responsible for that line. Twice. Long story short: I placed a seriously convoluted order, on one occasion twice back to back and on another occasion once by itself. Staff was incredibly accommodating. I'm talking, incredibly accommodating with an incredibly convoluted order, for pickup at different times at different dates. Vegetarian review: Tots: good. Crispy, nicely done. Standard tots. Chilaquiles: slightly soggy. It's partially my fault, since I should know better than to order them to-go. The sogginess isn't really the issue- it's the cardboard-papery to-go box that goes gross rather quickly. Yes- they have plastic containers that they use for baked food. The chilaquiles themselves were also just ok. Not great, but ok. The experience is enough to bring me back, try something else, and render judgement again (how terrible does THAT sound? 'Render judgement'.. who I even think I am...). Snickerdoodle: soft and chewy, with just the right amount of sugar and spice. Single gripe: I placed a to-go order that included soda, and it was for pickup in about am hour. I watched them put the soda in cups as I was there and leave them on the counter. They were watered down and I had to ask for new ones. Parking was easy. read more

I'm so happy I finally got to try the food at Butter! This was my first time having breakfast tacos and they were delicious. They were properly filled so you had more substance than tortilla. I also really liked the side salad. Not many places serve salad for breakfast so I applaud Butter. The last item I ordered was a latte which was okay, nothing special but nothing bad to note. There is plenty of seating. I looked around for outlets because I think this would be a great spot to work from but unfortunately could not easily find some. I docked one star because this meal was quite expensive. I understand they use high quality ingredients but it adds up. I don't agree with charging customers $0.75 for milk alternatives when organic milk is used regularly and which probably close in cost. All that said, I will be returning but just not as often! read more

I love coming to Butter! They have a good variety of breakfast entrees, pastries, and Filipino/Hawaiian breakfast. Also creative and tasty coffee drinks, like a cookie milk latte. On this trip we got the coffee cake which has a tasty streusel topping, Oreo cookie (which is like a chocolate chip cookie with Oreo pieces in it), and the kalua pork hash with rice, eggs, and gravy. Everything was tasty! In the past I've had the French toast which comes with a yummy scoop of vanilla cream and fruit. They also have French toast with passionfruit and another one with pandan. I really like the tropical flavors they offer on the menu. You order up at the counter and they'll announce your name when your order is ready. Servers have always been friendly. They have a decent amount of indoor seating and a little bit of outdoor seating. It can get a little busy (like any brunch place) on weekends, but I've never had to wait super long. I'll definitely be back to try more! read more

I just wanted the people at Butter Cafe and Bakery to know that my husband said that his breakfast burrito was the best he's ever had. He talked about it for several days, and told everyone he came in contact with that it was great and "very compact -- there were no air pockets in it." This is very important, apparently. In any case, the breakfast burrito looked great on his plate, but I never got to taste it because he devoured it. Avocado toast was what I ordered, and it, too, was delicious. The toast part was unique. It's challah bread dipped in custard, so basically a piece of French toast. On top is mashed avocado, eggs, arugula and a lemon vinaigrette. You get a choice of side (fruit, tots or home fries), and I got the home fries and they were amazing. Honestly, these fried potatoes were the best part of an already excellent meal. The home fries were perfectly fried, with mealy centers. I'm still thinking about these potatoes. My children shared a kids' pancake breakfast. The kids' pancake breakfast plate is big, even though it's meant for one child. It's three small pancakes, two scrambled eggs and two pieces of bacon or sausage. My oldest child said that his pancake was his favorite thing that he ate while we visited the area, so there you go. Also, FYI: The kids' pancake breakfast is the only kid-related thing on the menu. They have no other kid things. I even tried to order a kid-sized burger, and they told me they don't do that. We were initially a little put off because the prices were a little high. But after eating here, I know why they price the way they do. It's because their food is amazing and worth it. read more

Came here to see if the reviews were correct. Surely this place did not disappoint my taste buds. Service was a big long but worth to wait a while.

Always loved coming here. Been a lot of years now and although I miss their waffles, I was pleasantly surprised at their new menu. Lots of good Filipino and Hawaiian choices along with their staples - breakfast burrito and lattes. I had brunch with my Aunty today and we both had the tocilog bowl - hers with pork longanisa and mine with pork tocino. Had my usual vanilla latte - still good after all this time. read more

Visited Butter Cefe for the first time for breakfast. The buttermilk pancakes were fluffy, and the poached eggs were good, but the fruits were soggy and tasteless, and it felt like they had been sitting in the fridge too long. We informed the employees on our way out, but they just stared at us like this was something to be expected! No reaction, no sense of ownership, nothing! read more

First time visitors. The place is very nice looking from the outside and inside. It is a good size, very clean and well organized l. The menu board of food items available is clearly listed on the wall behind the counter. The delicious looking bakery goods are all on display in a glass case on the front counter which makes it super challenging to say "NO" once you take a peek to see what is available. The staff here were very friendly, helpful and welcoming. The reason why we were here was the food and it was DELICIOUS!! The chilaquiles did not disappoint. They were fresh, soo tasty and loaded with nothing but goodness. I definitely became a fan today This was definitely a positive dining experience. read more

Love going to Butter Cafe and Bakery. Everyone is always so nice. It's cozy and family oriented. My sister and I like to split the breakfast burrito, it's big enough for us to split it so that we can also have a pastry, and a delicious matcha latte or chai latte. Their French toast is very tasty and their chilaquiles too. Yes, I recommend it read more

I've been coming to this spot for years, and it never disappoints. Now that my boyfriend lives just around the corner, it's even more convenient to swing by and grab a little snack on my way to work. The pastries are always fresh and delicious (at least in my experience), and the vibe is super chill. The staff is always very sweet, and most of them are young, which gives the place that fun, hipster café feel. The plates can definitely get pricey, meals range from $15 to $25, and coffee alone is $7. For two people, it's easy to spend $50-$70. That said, the food is genuinely delicious and high quality. If I could afford it, I'd eat a full meal here every day. Most days, I keep it simple with their tater tots. For $6, you get a full box, and they're always crispy and satisfying. They do charge $0.50 for a small side of house salsa, which sometimes feels a bit steep, especially since the portion is so tiny and the flavor isn't always consistent. One thing to note, they're only open from 8am to 2pm, so plan accordingly. Overall, it's definitely worth checking out at least once! read more

The biggest pancakes you ever saw! Great service! Friendly staff. Been coming here for a long time with my grandkids.

We never really ventured out to San Dimas before, so this definitely a nice place to try when you're in the area! We were looking for something brunch and I had this place bookmarked for awhile. I actually liked how casual of a spot this is compared to other brunch restaurants, where you wait 60+ minutes to be seated lol. At least this wasn't the case! You go to the cashier to order and then you seat yourself. There were also plenty of seats available indoor and outdoor. I got the chorizo breakfast tacos with potatoes, and my bf ordered the breakfast burrito with a side of bacon. He was really close to get tater tots on the side, but he realized there were tots in the burrito lol. We didn't wait too long for our order tbh, so the service here was pretty quick. Once we got our order, the portions were pretty huge! Great serving size for the price. I tried my breakfast tacos first, they were pretty good, but I didn't like how the tortilla fell apart so easily. I wish it had more salsa in it because it felt like it was lacking a bit of flavor? I added hot sauce but it didn't really help too much. Although, I enjoyed the potatoes very much! They were so crispy and thick, so good! I took a bite of my bf's burrito and it was really good! They also gave a generous amount of avocado in it so i was pretty gooood. The salsa was also pretty good too, I used it on my tacos lol. He ended up not finishing his burrito since it's that massive. We would definitely visit again if we're craving brunch in the area! read more

I've been to this spot three times now, and it's definitely a favorite! The quality brunch food, great price point, and consistent service make it a must-visit. The portion sizes are generous, perfect for sharing or saving some for later. My top recommendation is to always get some form of potatoes with your plate. Their potatoes are incredibly crispy, flavorful, and delicious. Be prepared for a post-meal nap because the dishes are quite carb-heavy, but no complaints here! I've tried the breakfast mulita, burrito, sandwich (which is reminiscent of a burger), avocado toast, chicken fried steak, and French toast. Everything has been consistently incredible! A standout favorite is the French toast. They use thick slices of brioche toast topped with a huge scoop of whipped butter. We opted for all the sweet condiments on the side (syrup, chocolate, and caramel syrup). It's like dessert for breakfast--my absolute favorite. On the savory side, the breakfast sandwich is a winner! It features toasted King's Hawaiian sweet buns with savory mayo, eggs, meat, and veggies, served with a side of potatoes. You'll be full for half the day! The countertop also offers a variety of pastries. We tried the blueberry cornmeal cake, which I highly recommend. It strikes a perfect balance between crumbly and moist, and most importantly, it's not dry. read more

Brunch at Butter... really cute, clean and bright. Order and pick up your food at the counter. Menu is really diverse and interesting. All American breakfasts, burritos, sandwiches, rice dishes, etc. Hubby had a loco moco which is a homemade hamburger patty over rice with gravy on top with and egg over it. Typical Hawaii(?) meal! Gravy is not the typical brown gravy but okay. I had the breakfast burrito. HUGE! The food is a little bland but prepared very healthy, not greasy at all. Would go back again and try their sandwiches or sweets. read more

Even though my last review of this place was over 2 years ago, this is still a place that me and my wife would visit regularly. The food has always been consistent and it seems like they have worked out staffing where there is more people to make sure things run smoothly. The line can definitely get long so improving on this was great. We recently have started trying some different dishes, and discovered their custom omelette and their Eggs Benedict. You get to choose 3 different ingredients you want inside the omelette and you get to have it with a side of your choice like salad or tater tots. Same thing with the Benedict you also get to have a side, and as always they have pretty generous portions. I always have to get an oat milk latte here, they definitely use a different type of oat milk then other places, it is quite smooth. Just thought it would be a time to refresh my review, and I can happily say this place is consistent , and continues to bring a great experience each time. read more

Best breakfast burritos!! I love the crispiness the tater tots bring to the breakfast burritos. It's probably my favorite part of the burrito. I found it super unique that they included beans in the breakfast burrito too. The seating is very spacious, open, and inviting. If I want to spend the day eating breakfast with my best friend, aka my dog, then they have plenty of outdoor seating for both of us. The loud speaker makes it easy to hear when my order is ready. The staff is friendly and helpful and gave me options on which type of meat I wanted for my burrito. The cookies are amazing as well! I tried the Oreo Chocolate Chip Cookie, but would love to try them all. Until next time! read more
