    I stopped on a Sunday morning for take out. I just wanted coffee. I ordered outside service was quick and kind. It was around 1 and inside was super busy. Very cute location the cup colors are nice. Coffee was delicious and warm. If in the area I would stop by again

    16oz Iced Latte (~$6) with Real Vanilla Syrup (+75¢)
    Aya E.

    Ordered: 16oz Iced Latte (~$6) with Real Vanilla Syrup (+75¢) Aya's take: I've always heard good things about Butler and was in the area needing a midday caffeine boost. It looks like they have plenty of pastries, sandwiches, and baked goods but I got the Iced Latte with Real Vanilla Syrup. Now the Iced Latte itself was pretty decent. The espresso was bold and balanced and the ratio of milk was just right. My only complaint is I could barely taste the Real Vanilla Syrup that I paid extra for. It was so subtle in flavor that I could've just gotten a regular Iced Latte and not known the difference. I was intrigued by the fact that they had real vanilla to begin with but unfortunately I wasn't able to really taste or enjoy it. The drinks might be hit or miss but their cups are cute and the space is bright.

    Easy to find, plenty of seatings inside and one table outside. Inside is chic and lots of baked good at the counter to order right away or you can order on the menu. I was a in a rush so I didn't get to order much but the breakfast empanadas (5/5), perfectly toasted and flavor along with the awesome spicy sauce! I would definitely come to try other items.

    Stopped in on a Monday morning at 10:40ish and there was a line but it moved pretty fast. Iced Honey cardamom latte was excellent, and the Petite French toast was good. Would come back for breakfast!

    Cute coffee shop with pastries in Dumbo! I ordered the empanada which was good, but didn't love the pasty! I'll be back to try other items on the menu!

    A cozy brunch/breakfast spot located in the heart of dumbo. I love a place that does an iced vanilla latte well and this place does not disappoint. I also ordered a breakfast sandwich on biscuit with sausage and egg and it was super tasty. Additionally, I recommend sitting by the window so you can get cute pics of the Brooklyn bridge in the background.

    I stopped into Butler when I was in Dumbo a few weeks back for a QSR breakfast, and it was a great experience! Not too busy, but never not busy, once ordered food came quickly, and the view of the Bridge is excellent, and a lovely way to start a morning if you want to sit quickly. Prices are super fair as well! Cozy inside, and kind Brooklynite staff. I ordered the breakfast sandwich, which I totally recommend! it's made with truffle aioli on a scallion brioche and completed with a sunny-side egg, bacon, and cheddar. The truffle aioli plays off of the other ingredients quite effectively. On the side, I ordered the corn muffin and also had a taste of the sticky date muffin. Both of these were pretty good, though a bit more moisture in the muffin would've been preferred for my palette. Cute spot to pop into - recommend for sure!

    Coffee was worth the wait. If you are trying to do tourist things come here very early order a coffee to go and take pictures here. The ice coffee hits the spot before work always, or if you have time to work from home and want a good place to enjoy an espresso with something light on the side this place is worth it.

    Cute spot, front cashier service was good-- I'm lactose intolerant & just ordered the avocado toast (not having anything previously or after this) I hate giving out bad reviews but I got a really bad case of food poisoning ... I have been ill and honestly it could have been anything. The presentation of the food was really cute, I asked the cook if there was dairy and he said no so I'm not sure what it was. My friends enjoyed their food ... I however didn't .. I'm sorry

    Went to this place on a whim after watching the sun rise on Brooklyn Bridge Park! You can see Brooklyn Bridge from the windows +for the location Everything Cruffin * , it's a mix of a croissant and a muffin which was both flakey and crispy, also messy. I wish it had more cream cheese and the fennel seeds were quite overpowering. However, it's a good first try

    Food was good. Ambiance awesome. Minus 1 star due to not receiving complete order. Not sure if I would come here again, but definitely a cool spot

    Cute bakery vibes and I liked their pastry and lunch options! The location is nice, so there's a lot of sunlight and view of Brooklyn bridge. Decent amount of seating, but will probably have to wait or grab n go during the weekends. Good food spot around dumbo!

My honest review, not my favorite cookie! It leaned a little too dry and crisp and didn't have enough of that soft gooey-ness for me. Just not my preferred style! They weren't bad, but no where near my favorite. It is fun that they have a few different flavors though including the Korn cookie!

The Jeju Green Tangerine Matcha honestly just tastes like a tangerine selter drink but in the best way, because I don't typically enjoy seltzer or carbonated beverages. I really enjoy the flavor and the carbonation isn't too strong, probably because I brought it home to drink. I don't really taste the matcha but I would definitely still order this again. 2. Matcha Einspanner. This is my first time having an Einspanner so I have no idea what I was expecting but this is DELICIOUS. It's so silky and smooth and the TASTE is just right up my alley. The matcha is light but you can still taste it. Absolutely, would drink this all the time if I could. 3. Purple Sweet Potato Latte. This. This. Omg, why haven't I tried this sooner?! The first sip and initial taste, I almost tasted nothing, just milk. And then all of a sudden, there's an explosion of flavor in your mouth. As a sweet potato lover, I was in heaven. I have absolutely no words for this drink, just try it. 100/10 recommend. This is probably my favorite one out of the 3 that I bought. I went around ... 2:45PM on a Friday and most of the seats were taken, if I remember correctly. There were a decent amount of seats and the space was decent. I liked the minimal aesthetic they had for the design of the interior. Not to forget, the staff at the register was absolutely wonderful, she answered all my questions, she's so sweet. I think I'm disappointed that I haven't tried this place sooner. Y'all get out of your comfort zone and try the Purple Sweet Potato Latte !! Or if not, just try this place out. I will definitely be recommending the Purple Sweet Potato Latte to all my family and friends.

While it was a fun and unique drink, I probably should have opted for something else. The topping was literally like actual tiramisu rather than just tiramisu flavoring, and it felt like there was more ice and tiramisu than latte. Personally, I would have preferred more of the tiramisu flavor without the full tiramisu texture mixed into the drink. That said, it was an interesting concept and I'm glad I tried it. I'd definitely be open to coming back and trying another latte on a future visit.

    I probably never leave reviews in general, especially negative ones, but this experience was so…read moreegregious that I honestly felt like I had to say something. I've worked in restaurants and bars long enough to understand that staff drinking happens, but this was on another level entirely. I came in with a group of friends and one of the bartenders, Will, was so visibly drunk that it made the entire experience uncomfortable. Slurred speech, wobbling behind the bar, taking orders while chewing food with his mouth open -- it was honestly embarrassing to watch. He looked like he absolutely did not want to be there. At one point, my group had been trying to get his attention for another round for quite a while while he stood around talking with coworkers. We then watched staff take a shot together, and when he finally came over he burped mid-conversation and literally had whatever he had just been drinking dribbling down his neckbeard. That was the moment where the whole thing went from unprofessional to just gross. What made it worse was that it didn't seem isolated to one employee. Throughout the night we watched staff openly taking shots and drinking behind the bar like it was a house party instead of a business. There's a difference between bar culture and complete lack of professionalism, and this crossed that line hard. One of the friends I was with actually frequents the DUMBO location and said that the last time she was there, the same bartender also seemed intoxicated, which makes this feel less like a bad night and more like an ongoing issue. The DUMBO location itself is in an amazing spot, which makes it even more disappointing. But ownership seriously needs to get control of what's going on there before someone gets hurt or the place develops a reputation for having drunk staff on the clock. Unfortunately, the experience was uncomfortable enough that my girlfriends and I won't be coming back. I genuinely hope the employee mentioned gets help if this is a regular thing, because nobody should be working service in that condition.
