I ordered a "pecan pie" for Christmas and it was delicious! I visit often for breakfast and I have always enjoyed eating the home cooked meals. And the staff is always attentive and in good humor. read more

This is more a review of the phenomenal customer service ... I live on the East Coast now, but had family planning a visit to ButtercuP in Concord, CA. I wanted to be part of their meal in spirit, and by that, what I hoped for was a gift certificate for them. Through facebook messaging, I received such a courteous and pleasant response from a representative of ButtercuP. Jennifer was resourceful and able to work out a method whereby a gift certificate could be created, and would be waiting for my west coast family when they met up at the ButtercuP - SUCCESS!! And from the photos of their meals, all their plates looked plentiful and delicious! Thank you ButtercuP!! read more

Service is always excellent and the restaurant is always clean looking. The menu has something for everyone . My favs include burgers, the entree salads and the steak and prime rib. We also like the home cooked plates such as meatloaf or roasted turkey platter. Our recent visit, my husband had the roast turkey dinner and it was delicious! Served piping hot and a generous serving of thick turkey slices, fabulous stuffing, potatoes and veges. I ordered the chicken pot pie and it was piping hot but not as wonderful as it use to be. so delicious pre-covid. The gravy was watery and under seasoned and there was only chicken and carrots inside the pot pie and little tiny bits of onion and celery- I had hoped for peas and mushrooms and chunkier celery- It has been years since I ordered a pot pie here, and I do think the recipe may have changed. The filling was just not very tasty and not what Buttercup is known for- I will eat there again but I won't order the chicken pot pie. Not too many places offer a great pot pie anymore - read more

Buttercup is my go to place! I go to the one on Treat and Clayton in Concord and it is always my first choice when I go out for a casual dinner or lunch or breakfast. They fit all the categories great service, great food, friendly, and priced right! read more

We came here for dinner after a day hike at the Lime Ridge Open Space. The restaurant was nice and clean. They have a great selection of various food, salad, sandwiches, burgers, fettuccine...The service was super, they helpfully split bills for our group, and the bill came with a QR code that I was able to easily scan and pay. I ordered the Mushroom Onion Burger with curly fries. The meat was fresh but the burger was not very tasty, the curly fries were a little bit too salty for me. Overall, it's a good dining experience. read more

We had excellent service, which was very nicely provided by our server " Ilona" She was so kind & welcoming, and made sure our every need was met!! I hope that Buttercup recognizes her impeccable service to this company & its customers!! Thank you Ilona, happy holidays read more

I have passed by Buttercup several times and didn't even know it existed... Thanks to a friend, she introduced me to Buttercup in which I had a good brunch experience! First of all, don't let the exterior fool you. It does looks a bit outdated from the outside, but I believe they recently renovated the interior. It was nice and clean, and very spacious. My friend and I arrived around 11am and we were quickly seated despite the weekend crowd. I ordered the Buttercup Classic Breakfast, while my friend ordered the Linguica Benedict. I really enjoyed my order. It comes with two eggs, four pieces of bacon (can be replaced with sausage or you can do half and half at no extra charge), choice of hash brown or O'Brien Potatoes, and toast. It's your classic breakfast and it definitely hit the spot! My friend enjoyed her order, as well which also comes with a nice bowl of fruits. Overall, food was good and exceeded my expectations. Prices were reasonable given that portion sizes were hearty. Service was good, it wasn't the best but I don't blame our server as it was busy at that time. All in all, I'm a fan of Buttercup and will definitely return in the future! I can't wait to give their Frosted Cinnascuit a try! read more

First things first. I got the Belgian waffle and added on bacon and eggs. The Belgian waffle was good. But here it is, folks. The bacon (I had 2 pieces and one fell on the floor so the server gave me 3-4 more pieces to replace it) was INCREDIBLE! If y'all have ever seen Ratatouille, this was the part where the critic remembered being a child again. Something so amazing that it takes you back to a time when things were just better. It was the PERFECT crispiness. The eggs were stellar, with the whites done and the yolks runny. Our server was also fantastic. Her name is Pearl and she is just the sweetest person I think I've ever had my food delivered by. I also mentioned about my great experience to the manager. Point is, I'll definitely be back, even if it's alone, just to have the bacon and eggs again!! read more

Good food, good drinks and reasonable prices. The staff is very friendly. The location has lots of free parking.

It closes at 9pm! We used to visit routinely after choir but can't with the earlier hours. Breakfast is on par with most diners around here. Wait staff can be fun and efficient. read more

The service and host were nice. We were seated relatively quick. The bathroom was clean. The food came at the right temperature and not greasy, and the condiments bottles were not dirty ( which is typical on lots of restaurants with their ketchup bottle being dirty from lack of wipe down at the end of the night. Parking was easy and near Safeway. The perfect breakfast and grocery shopping to walk it off. read more

Always reliable...great service, good food....good value. Won't wow you but will jump in your usual rotation!

Fresh food and great customer service. We requested for some face masks and they were able to provide for us during the pandemic. I got the churro waffle and it wasn't soggy or overly sweet. Overall, I recommend getting it. For a Saturday morning, you can still find a spot easily. read more

Came here for dinner on Thursday evening. During this Covid time, we actually felt very comfortable. We sat inside. There were other tables too but they did spread them out so customers didn't feel too crowded. We both had 2 dishes of pasta and the portions were generous, bread and salad served with dinner. Great food! Great service! read more

A few years back I made a five-star review for this place I don't know what has happened since then but their staffing must be different, because they can't cook at all. They burnt all of my food especially my potatoes were absolutely black everything else was hard and inedible. They really can't cook anymore. read more

I absolutely love this place. I have been here many times with my family and the food is also done right, the employees are great, and food is delicious. I normally get the patty melt. But I tried the Mac and cheese...talk about a game changer. I bought only one to try and my kids ended up polishing it off before I could get another bite. The consistency of customer service and food has not changed through out the pandemic. Again, this place is a total gem and I can't say enough good things about this place. read more

Easter Brunch, first visit in 4 years (Fiancée loves it). It was fab! The chicken sausage omelette was huge & Delicious (lasted 2+ days and I'm a big eater). Her eggs Benedict great too! Reasonable prices, good service. Want to go back! read more

Oh my gosh what happened to Buttercup?? We used to love their food. The last few times we have come here the food has been terrible. Tonight was the worst. I wish I would have read these reviews first. Someone else had a similar problem. I was asked how I wanted my burger patty cooked. I said medium. What came out was a charred, inedible burger with undercooked French fries. I was shocked! The time before my chicken was undercooked. My son wouldn't even touch his grilled cheese. Also burnt. They have definitely changed chefs within the last six months. I guess we have to cross off Buttercup from our rotation of restaurants. Sad day for this girl! read more

Always a great place to eat. The staff is great, I've been here multiple times and have never felt anything negative. I've brought my mother and grandmother here and they've always been so sweet. Best place to eat. The food is great! So are the shakes!! read more

This was by far the worst experience I've ever had at a restaurant absolutely disgusting food I ordered the prime rib I had to have it sent back because it was old stinky I ordered medium it was dark and nasty all the way through unbelievable a chef would even put that on a plate for a customer and then I ordered a dessert the blueberry tart with alamode again disgusting was old gloppy you could tell it was sitting out for a long time and it had a bunch of hair on it I had to send that back as well I just recommend nobody come here I'm sorry I don't mean to hold the grudge but it was that bad read more

Came in here on a thursday morning/afternoon, was sat fairly quickly by one of the waitresses. We ordered appetizers and were planning to order more food, but we noticed the waitress who sat us sat a bunch more people parallel to us who came in 15-20 minutes after us - receiving their food before us. We only got wings and onion rings- we were serviced last. We decided to get the check because the quality of service was terrible while the customers sitting across from us were receiving quality service and multiple check ins unlike us. We felt embarrassed because of this and left early shortly after. It was our first time in and more than likely our last. We were looking for a new brunch place in the area so I guess we'll keep searching. read more

I am SO UPSET with this restaurant. I've been going there for YEARS!!! My little granddaughter loves the chicken strips I have never ever had a problem ordering a kids meal for her to go. Tonight, I went in there and was met with the manager, Mickey. I have never been treated more rudely. She treated me like I was a homeless person that was there for a free meal. I told her that I have bought the kids chicken strips many times and she embarrassed me in a lobby full of people telling me that she's never gonna do that for me again. I explained to her that I've been coming there for years. She treated me like I was looking for a free meal. This is our neighborhood restaurant and I will never ever go back there again. Mickey, I hope you're reading this. You are a terrible manager and treat the people of your community like they don't matter to your business. While I assure you we do. read more

Great breakfast spot. Food is always consistent , no matter the time or day or how busy they are. Large portions fairly decent sized menu. A few vegetarian friendly items but not too many "healthy" options. (4 stars) Try the pie!! I'm a huge fan of Costco pumpkin pie, but decided to try ButtercuP's "famous" pumpkin pie this year for Thanksgiving .... AMAZING. The upside down apple walnut pie is delicious as well. I will definitely try a slice of their other pie offerings. read more

This was a cute place but nothing special. The service was nice and my boyfriend had the brilliant idea of getting a Belgian waffle and topping it with a poached egg and hollandaise sauce! The only thing I don't like is when restaurants don't tell you what the up-charge is for a side like a hollandaise sauce. I got the egg burrito which had a pathetic excuse of guacamole on it. It was a smidge and I understand why they only gave me a little..it was bad!! It tasted old that I ended up having to scrape it off :( they could have at least compensated with more sour cream but that was barley on it either. The service was ok but will not likely come back read more

My husband and I frequent ButtercuP approximately twice a week, spending about $200 here, but today will be our last time. While the food is good, the service has gotten worst in the last several months and today, it was just awful. The hostess, a young lady with glasses, never smiles or welcomes us and God forbid if you ask for a different table than the one she walks you to, which is what happened today. She immediately gave us a dirty look, stomped over to the table my husband requested, and threw our menus in the table. This is not an exaggeration either! We were then helped by Alexander who took our order and then disappeared . He's been our server before so we knew this was typical of him but today was the worst. At one point, we asked another staff member if they knew where he was and they replied that he was texting in the back and no he was not on break. I hope Debbie and her family address the horrible customer service so they do not continue to lose regulars but for me and my husband, eating out has gotten too expensive to feel uncomfortable and ignored by staff, not to mention, there are so many other restaurants to choose from. Goodbye ButtercuP! read more

Terrible terrible terrible. The customer service here is terrible. I wish I could give a ZERO star review because the way I was treated by the "assistant manager, " Michelle Nance, was disgusting!!!! She was condescending and rude. She talked to me like I was a child and I could not believe this place would have someone like her be an assistant manager. She blames her "service" on the owner, Benjamin A. Shahvar, and stated that he was the reasoning behind her service. Or lack of service I should say. I highly recommend that NOBODY come here unless they want to be treated horribly. Not only that but the restaurant smells like a bathroom. Gross!!!!!!!! read more
