A pleasant foodie surprise in San Angelo!…read more I had to come into San Angelo for work and going into the trip, I was not too excited about my food options available to me as a vegetarian...but I did find Buttercup online and it seemed close enough to those "hip, city coffee shops", meaning I should be able to get some decent food! Unfortunately, a lot of their hot sandwich options were off the table since they seemed to have a broken toaster, but I was able to order a hummus veggie sandwich that came with seasoned potato chips, a side salad, and a stick of chocolate. I also got a vanilla cake bite (pop without the stick) and everything was about $18 with tip. I didn't feel like trying any of the drinks, but some of the coffee flavors sounded interesting and they have seasonal flavors too. The ambiance is inviting, and definitely feels like a cozy place for the community to come hang. If you ever find yourself in this part of west Texas, definitely keep this spot in your back pocket for close to healthy eats!

Love visiting Buttercup. The vibe in the shop is welcoming and calming. Like any good coffee shop,…read moreit makes you want to stay. The coffee options are plentiful and they do their own take on both custom and traditional coffee drinks. You will find all your caffeine needs here. They also have a good menu. It ranges from custom toasts to toasted bagels and even extensively crafted charcuterie boards. Service is friendly and knowledgeable and they have a drive thru if you are in a hurry. There are a few good coffee options in San Angelo and if you are in Buttercup's part of town, this is your stop.

Only my favorite drive thru in San Angelo! The iced coffee is by far one of the bests as well! Plus…read morethe speed of this line is amazing, it can be soo busy yet they still knock it out in a reasonable time! The pretzel sticks are pretty good, the coffee is great, just looking to explore more options soon!

Great service and great beverages! If you bring your dog they may even offer you a pup cup!read more

My friend was really disappointed in the flavor of his dark chocolate mocha. He threw it away without drinking more than a few sips. I appreciated the cleanliness of the restaurant, as well as proximity to the river walk. Service was fine - the coffee was started promptly, the coffee matched what we ordered, and the servers were distant but respectful. There were no food options here. While this location looks nice, I don't plan on coming back here for my coffee/breakfast.

This place must've had a name change to Free Rein Coffee Company. Such a cute little spot! Looks…read morelike an old garage, with ample parking and good coffee! The service was friendly and helpful. They also have a good amount of shirts, hats, mugs, whole bean and ground coffees for purchase. So glad I found this gem.

Had a turkey Gouda sandwich and it was served with the biggest slice of tomato and I loved that. I had the Smokey Mountain smores and the horchata both served hot....to die for. So good! Ate and drank too fast to take a picture. Oops. Definitely going back. It's a good place to go alone or with a group of friends.

Adorable coffee shop and delicious coffee but customer service is lacking. When I asked the…read moreemployee about the gluten free cake pops, he didn't seem to know what I was talking about and simply said well if the sign says it then I guess it is. Not too reassuring. Then the girls making the coffee just stood there and talked about their weekend without greeting or engaging with customers or really paying attention to how hot you are steaming the milk. The cup was so hot I couldn't even hold it with the sleeve on it. Very disappointing.

We were just in town to visit my step-daughter and she recommended this place. It was definitely…read moreworth a detour in the way out of town. They had a huge selection of interesting donuts as well as kolaches and sandwiches. The service was fast and friendly. My step-daughter said she's never seen the case so full [but she's not an early riser] so you may want to go early for best selection. I'm pretty sure the only drinks they offered were pre-made so I knocked off a star because we had to go somewhere else to get coffees

I love the convenience of this Starbucks, because it's so close. However, it has become so busy…read morethat it's not much fun to order my drinks through here anymore. I live a few blocks down the road, and I may place my order well in advance, but by the time I get there, I'm always waiting. There are families, whole groups of families of five or six, all drinking coffee! These guys haven't figured out that they need to add a second barista, and to limit the non-bar drinks to someone else to make. They do have a lot of customers, in their defense, but I just need my coffee ready when I stop by to pick it up. PS I don't see these guys going out of their way to welcome me when I come inside like other STARBUCKS. It may be because they're so damn busy. From STARBUCKS, give them some help!

There were 2 lines that were pretty long but it moved fast and the girl that took my cars order was patient and we paid on her tablet. When we got to the front, a man outside handed us our drinks. I ordered a large German Chocolate (coconut and caramel mocha) with coconut milk and it was the perfect amount of sweetness and creaminess. I love how customizable the menu is and how efficient the employees are!

I am here regularly and Ashley, Nita, and one or two of the other girls were so dang adorable and kind and helpful. Today I just felt like the other girl behind the register was just trying to be a pushy sales woman with no kindness in her words. My rewards weren't working and instead of trying to figure why like Nita was, the other older woman with gray/white hair and colors just made comments that it was because I didn't put it in. It was extremely off putting just the way she was. As I grabbed my straw to leave she walked out and went right to her car in front and began smoking a cigarette. To each their own, but i was very off put by her actions.
