I love family owned restaurants, and this one was no exception. The place is bigger on the inside than it looks like on the outside, and decorated in typical diner fashion. We snagged the last table on a Saturday morning, although it looked like nobody really had a long wait as the tables were constantly turning over. They have an extensive, reasonably priced menu, and although I was torn between a few items, I finally decided on a feta and spinach omelet, add tomatoes, with well done hash browns, and their house biscuit. Food didn't take long to arrive, and the portion was generous. My omelet was perfect, the hashbrowns super crispy, and the biscuit was buttery and to die for. Coffee was good, and the server was friendly if a bit swamped. I would definitely come here again if I were in the area. read more

Great place for breakfast. Very busy and I can see why. My bestie and I snagged the last table when we arrived at 10 on a Saturday morning. Everyone's food looked great. The server was very friendly and got our coffees out quickly. My decaf was good. I ordered 2 eggs over medium with hash browns and a biscuit. The eggs were done perfectly - no squooshy whites - the hash browns were good and the biscuit was big and very tasty. Definitely try this place out if you're in the Ellenton area. read more

We're looking forward to coming back. read more

Hit this small breakfast/lunch spot on a Monday morning with my father while visiting him over a long weekend. We were seated quickly, server was very friendly, and offered a few suggestions. The menu is pretty hefty, offering a lot of options for both breakfast and lunch. They've got a good variety of omelets, (2 or 3 egg), skillets, and a la carte options, as well as many hot and cold sandwiches, burgers and a huge salad selection. Being early in the morning, I went with a 3 egg sausage and cheese omelet, which I got with hash browns and a biscuit. This thing was no joke, when it came it out, it honestly seemed like a hell of a lot more than 3 eggs. They did not skimp on the sausage or cheese filling. Everything was delicious, and very filling, much more food than I could eat. One thing that stood out though, living in the south I've eaten my share of biscuits, but this is the first time it's come out sliced in half and toasted...it was a nice touch, and helped add to a delicious meal. I'd definitely recommend this spot, but again it is a small diner, so I assume it probably gets pretty busy and full on weekend...proceed with caution, but enjoy! read more

My wife Martha and I love Butterfields and have been going for years. Food: I give a solid 9 on breakfast. Have not had lunch yet. I usually get eggs Benedict, or hand beaten eggs for ham and cheese omelettes. Don't like my omelettes fluffy and full of air. They accommodated me and are good at that. Hash Browns well done and crispy. Biscuits and Gravy...yum. All good. Reasonably priced. Go Hungry!!! Service: has always been excellent. Service gets a 10. Very nice people. Willing to accommodate you to make it like you want it. Get your food pretty quick and the waitresses are always pleasant and sweet. Ambiance: It's what you would expect from a family diner. Butterfield's is open and airy, and our top go to place for breakfast. We highly recommend this Diner especially for Breakfast. Go hungry. read more

If you're in Parrish and looking for a simple but delicious country style breakfast, this is the place for you! It's a small dining area in a strip mall with that home-y feel. You can tell this is the friendly neighborhood breakfast spot. I came with my mom and nephew while visiting since he loves their pancakes with butter. I kept it simple with 2 fried eggs, crispy hash browns, a waffle and coffee. Everything was cooked to perfection! Even the hash browns were exactly how I wanted them. The waffle was delicious and had some whipped cream and cinnamon which was a nice touch. The server was really sweet and attentive and had all of the crayons and coloring books ready for the little guy to be entertained. I'll definitely be back on my next visit. read more

This place is such a perfect breakfast spot in Parrish. It's a nice quaint restaurant with very friendly and helpful service. The owner is frequently helping at the register. Their menu is large with many options for breakfast and lunch. They are typically busy but I haven't had to wait more than 20 minutes tops for a table for 2. My partner and I both got the sausage and bacon skillet with their famous biscuits - delicious!! read more

The food and service at Butterfields is amazing. Every time family comes to town this is the first place we want to go. Love this place!

Great food. Great service. Good prices. Definitely a number one spot for breakfast. Good old fashioned breakfast and some surprises too!!

We ordered three different omelettes and all 3 were Absolutely Perfect......a daily special southern omelette, a Mexican omelette, and a Greek omelette. Each dish was as good as it gets for Breakfast and this Is a MUST visit! read more

Good service. Good food. All the standards. Im a regular. No complaints. I would like if if they reviewed their gravy on biscuits. The gravy is always grainy. See you there tomorrow for breakfast. read more

Great basic breakfast! I had a huge veggie omelet which I couldn't finish. Really good with lots of cheese. And they grilled the biscuit! Love that. Good grits as well. Hubby had an Irish Benedict with corned beef hash. Great as well. Clean and busy place. A little noisy bit that didn't bother us. I'll be back read more

I love diner like restaurants so when we saw this place, we had to stop. It's very small inside, but they manage to fill up the tables and the staff is hustling. Our server was quick to get coffee while we reviewed the menu. The menu has a great variety from which to choose. I wanted to get eggs Benedict, but it's so iffy everywhere I have eaten that I settled on the ham and cheese omelet!with fruit and a biscuit. Food came out nice and hot. The omelet was a bit overdone, but inside was gooey goodness of ham and cheese. The fruit cup was fresh fruit. The biscuit was amazing! It was huge and weighed a ton! lol Prices are what they are at most other restaurants these days. read more

1st time here from Cali. We came in around 9am ish. Next thing you know, it was jammed packed. Our server was helpful told us about the specials. Got the 3 eggs and meat and the biscuit is pretty legit. And the dessert special a cinnamon roll, it was ok. Wife got the short stack and bacon well done. Definitely coming back before we head back to California. read more

Disappointed in an overpriced piece of chicken over iceberg lettuce with mandarin slices. I assume the long line to get in was for their breakfast crowd as they close by 2. Their breakfasts looked good but would not recommend for lunch. Mom had a BLT club that was a mess. Service was attentive. read more

This is the BEST restaurant in Parrish. The food is great. Service is fast. We love this place. I wouldn't highly recommend.

Yum! Local friends brought us here and they were greeted personally and neighborly when we walked in. Very sweet. Although it was a hustling, bustling Saturday morning, the hostess-waitress got us into a booth quickly. It took minutes for coffee and other drinks to appear and not much longer for the comforting brunch platters to greet our eyes and warm our stomachs. My biscuit could definitely be described as a cat's head biscuit, it was so big! Good, salty, but not too sodium-rich. Perfect. My overeasy eggs were gooey and my fruit cup had firm, fresh pineapple, watermelon, honeydew, and cantaloupe cuts. I was nearly jealous of my husband's blackened grouper sandwich -he shares three bites- but not entirely because I was so happy with my two egg breakfast. Highly recommend. read more

A fully loaded country breakfast - I'm getting that full feeling again just thinking about The Butterfield Skillet a week later. My NYC golf buddy ordered a similar dish - corned beef hash instead of the steak - we both talked about "not growing up with hash in our lives" I made up for that lost time, those lost big breakfast meals, he remained perplexed. All ingredients were layered, thin sliced steak with American cheese were seared to beautiful brown, potatoes possibly cooked thereafter and we're nice and crispy, not really chewy. This was not an overly greasy meal which in the back of my head - there was a hint if thoughtful concern as my eating has become quite clean. Biscuit needed gravy, so I ordered a side of sausage gravy and to jazz it up a bit, they top with two eggs - I'm totally a Sunnyside Up Guy, just not overly runny with that zygote twist. The griddle or cast iron cook top must have been perfectly clean due to the purity and efficiency of the final product - not overpowering in presence but a lot of food for under $15.00! read more

Butterfields Family Restaurant - Butterfield Skillet was a huuuuge meal - all for around $15.00 with coffee - phewww - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Parrish, Florida

A perfect local establishment that is no longer a secret - on the weekends be ready to wait as the inside has maybe 20 tables, but well worth it! Every time we come we are immediately greeted and the staff is always so pleasant. We love to support small family businesses, and this is our favorite! Best biscuits around and their specials are always different and tasty. Very similar to a diner style restaurant but with extra thought put into it! read more

Great food service & LOCAL BUSINESS FOR A LONG TIME. You can't get that down home vibe anywhere else in Parrish!

Worst experience ever at Butterfields southern Cafe this morning, two people one a amputee in a. wheelchair was told a 10 to 15 minute wait after waiting a half hour I checked again inside and was told there was no table for a wheelchair. They are waiting for availability after checking again after 45 minutes I was told still no availability for a wheelchair, but they are very busy and trying to accommodate us, yet we watched multiple people go in and out of the restaurant. After speaking to the hostess, I asked why they were not able to accommodate a wheelchair again her answer were very busy. Butterfields seems to discriminate against the disabled with not making allowances for wheelchair access. read more
