I had the pleasure of experiencing a solid 5/5 star breakfast at Buttermilk Eatery this morning. This new location has a beautiful interior and is much larger than the outside leads you to believing. They've got indoor and outdoor seating, and most of the inside booths use iPads to place your order and pay on. We found this to be interesting and innovative. The server still came by to check in and answer our questions about the menu. Otherwise, all of the extra work is done on the iPad. You can place your order, modify menu items and even order your coffee on there. It prompts a tip which I found to be... interesting, considering you don't receive much service. Even the food is delivered by a robot food runner! I still found our experience to be entertaining and fun. I started with a caramel iced latte with oatmilk and it was superb. The perfect amount of sweetness without being overbearing. I enjoyed the country fried steak breakfast and my boyfriend had the chocolate chip pancakes. The portion sizes are generous and the food was delicious. I'm extremely picky with my country fried steak since I'm from Texas and enjoy it southern style, but I found there's to hold up well to my expectations. It was lightly battered with tons of yummy sausage gravy. Overall, I'd definitely come back here. The management was present and frequently checked in. Don't be fooled by their futuristic design, Buttermilk still offers friendly and welcoming service. read more

Buttermilk Eatery is the BEST! Great food, service and staff! We go every weekend! Highly recommend - you won't be disappointed!

This place is fantastic. Love the tablet ordering, robot food delivery, so futuristic and cool. Mary and Jessica made sure to keep it personal though. The food and coffee was excellent and the place is decorated so cute! Will definitely be back! read more

Busy place on the weekend, trendy but simple design. This location order thru Kiosk at the table and food delivered by robot. Fun for young folks and it's an attraction. The prices may seemed high, but actually not too bad as the ingrediencies are fresh. I have high expectation on pancakes because of their name. Looks good but too dry and crumbly. read more

The overall experience was not too shabby because I went with a group of coworkers and time passed by well due to laughter. The establishment was clean accompanied by great customer service by our waitress. The only problem and the most important problem was that I had to wait an hour because the waitress failed to put in my order after she had taken it. Once my meal came, it was time for us to go back to work. My food was cold and was not as good as would have been if it were hot. I may try them again at a later time, but not right now because the occurrence is still recent. read more

Although the food was somewhat tasty, the menu did not depict what the food items actually were. The market hash came with cheese in it even though it doesn't say anywhere on the menu that cheese part of the dish. The chicken and waffles were extremely misleading based on the menu picture. It was basically frozen chicken fingers. The coffee was extremely overpriced for as low quality as it was, $6 for an iced latte. Lastly there is barely any human interaction. You order either on your phone or through a tablet at the table. It makes it much more difficult to ask questions or make substitutions. The staff also said that the paper menus weren't up to date and pushed us to use the tablet to order but the tablet wasn't up to date either. read more

Cool place, nice decor. Burger was yummy. Little pricey for what it is and you have to pay and tip before food comes out which was weird

Had a late breakfast there on a Sunday with my wife and son. Short 20 minute wait to be seated. Food was hot and fresh egg skillet was what I had with a side of pumpkin pancakes. I left stuffed. Such good service was meh. read more

It's kind of fun to be served by a robot playing the Jetson's theme song. They have an extensive menu. My husband loved his Mediterranean omelette. The potato medley was good. My eggs Benedict, however, was a disappointment. The Canadian bacon was extremely chewy, the Hollandaise tasted sweet, and the muffins were slightly burnt. But it was just one item. It looked like other customers were enjoying their food. read more

This place has amazing food. The Philly cheese steak and chicken and waffles was on point. There is a variety of items to choose from. The service was great. Servers are very attentive and knowledgeable. There are also robots that bring your food out, giving a Jetsons vibe. We'll definitely be back read more

The wait time to be seated is very long, and the server did not really keep track of who came in first, food is very expensive for what it is... the wait time for food wasn't bad at all. The food was pretty good and servers were nice. read more

Food was ok but overpriced,robot servers were cute but ......staff is friendly and efficient

Tried this place for breakfast, I did care for the touch screen ordering , i prefer having a menu. The food was OK. The prices are considerably high for a breakfast meal and coffee. I won't be going back til I see the prices drop. The service was good, though! read more

This place is overpriced for simple food... it took to long to get a cup of coffee! You need to order from an iPad and that is an experience that takes a toll on your nerves... the best part is the food is delivered by a robotic server! The waitress needs to come over to take it off and place it in front of you. Oh wait the robot went three feet to our table and the waitress followed it... the total amount of feet between the kitchen and our table was six feet! I can tell you that this is not worth the price or the experience! Go to a local mom and pop place... read more

The food was very good, but is drastically overpriced. $6 for a side of bacon? You could probably buy a pound for around the same price.$1 for a ranch cup? 75¢ for plastic silverware? I understand that eating out will obviously always cost more than eating at home, but almost $100 for 3 people at a diner like establishment that serves brunch food is ridiculous. There are places you could get a steak dinner for 2 in this area that would be within the same price range. Certain pedantic price points definitely need to be changed if they wish to stay in business in this area when I could go to Bob Evans and spend $30-40 less. But at least the food is good. read more

Gets busy so you might have to wait but the food is worth it. Nice spot to have breakfast without loud music and drunk people. And fun little quirk that a robot brings out your food. read more

The place is clean and you feel invited. But the quality does not meet my standards for the price. I'm happy to pay more for an excellent meal. However the food is just okay, and isn't worth $60 (including tip) for 2 people. read more

Bad food shows up on a robot.... Food doesn't taste like real food. Weird and gross. I need 85 characters to post this review so simply writing words so I can post this read more

Me and my family just ate at the linellas park location, great food. Tim really stood out with his customer service! He made sure we were happy & laughing. Definitely coming back ! read more

Your "No outside drinks" policy is horrible- I had a special supplement tea and was told to leave it in the car when I was sure to spend minimum $50 in your restaurant! Horrible customer service! read more

Good food. Attentive service with a modern flair. Loved the robots delivering food along with the server.

I ordered the caramel pancakes and they were terrible! Very sugary and cinnamon drizzled with caramel syrup and whipped creamed but tasted awful. Full of walnuts and thick pancakes. Service was fine staff was great just disappointed on their feature pancakes. read more

Good for pancakes and eggs, nothing else. We Ordered multiple items off of the menu for the family. dissatisfied to say the least.

Ordered crispy bacon, over hard eggs and crispy potatoes and got undercooked everything. The eggs were literally still raw. Food wasn't even hot. There were two other tables and our food still took quite a long time. There is no "service", it's all robots besides maybe two "servers" who literally bring your drinks to you and that's it. No one checks on you to see how food is. Ambiance wise you can tell shortcuts were made with cheap supplies. Manager never came over to apologize for crappy food. Do not recommend. Prices are way too high for such low quality. read more

Everything! So much food could not finish all. We love Buttermilk Eatery. Never had a disappointing meal here

The service and food were very good. We would go back for a second round. The service was really great.

The concept seemed cool, but overall I think Waffle House does a better job with food quality, prices, and customer service than this place. The food is severely overpriced for the quantity and quality that you receive. There were so many dirty tables upon arrival and so many staff standing around. It appeared they had a wait, when really tables just weren't being cleaned for ppl to sit. The staff wasn't friendly at all while we waited over 40min for a Togo order that we placed in the restaurant. We only placed a Togo order(which asked for a tip?) bc there were so many ppl waiting on dirty tables. Will not recommend or be back read more

I drove 30 minutes only to find the doors closed before the advertised time on your website. It was a complete disappointment. I arrived at 2:24, and even though people were inside, the doors were already shut. Please ensure your staff adheres to the hours posted on Apple Maps. read more

If I could give a place 0 stars this would still not be low enough, do not waste your money here

Food was awful. Tasted like it was half-real. The robots were a cute idea but totally impractical. The waitresses had to follow the robot to take the plates off of it. It was horrible food, a very small restaurant with limited space, and poor service. Not a single one of the 6 of us enjoyed our meal. Will not be back read more

Just went there with family and sat at one of the bigger booths, had to scan a QR code for menu which would of been fine if it was centrally located but of course it's at the front of the table so we all had to pass our phones to one person to scan it. Upon looking at the menu, quickly notice that drinks are incredibly overpriced $5 for OJ! And $4 for soda, is this an amusement park? Would add $20 to a families bill to drink something other than water, that ridiculous! I ordered the monte Cristo sandwich and it didn't take too long to come out but it was really blan, I mean almost no flavor to it, I had to send it back and get it removed from my bill. Then, at the end, I'm going to pay it asks for a tip, WHO AM I TIPPING? I saw a "Server" for less than 5 mins, all they did was bring the late waters that were supposed to come via robot, and take the food off the robot try onto the table. Am I tipping the robots? Isn't the point of going with more automated system to make it less expensive? Idk this place lacked flavor, made a simple process more difficult than it needed to be, and was overpriced. I do not recommend it. read more

I never wrote reviews but omg am I at wawa ...got to order from tablet and computer waiter brings your foood...Why????? So stupid sorry if you like to be waited on when you got put to eat then stay away ....so inpersonable read more

I'm glad I read the reviews before visiting the restaurant. We've experienced the VR code, Oder via phone, and food delivered to the table via robot. It sounds like they checked every box to make the restaurant as impersonal as possible. Pretty pricy for breakfast, $7.00 for a side of fruit??????? I wish you success. read more

Can't place pickup order by phone I have to download the an app to be able to order food

I assume based on the other reviews we were just there at the wrong time on the wrong day. We had to wait over an hour for our food after we placed our order. Luckily there were more than one phone options at our table as we couldn't log into the WiFi (too many people on the network). My phone didn't have enough signal to get our order in. We did finally get it in on my son-in-laws phone. Then the 1 hour wait I mentioned above. Now, if the food was really good I might have just said it was a "crazy day" as the manager told us.... However it really was just so-so. I am honestly a little baffled by the reviews. Perhaps everyone is just enamored with the "tech" aspect? read more
