    Fried eggs, hash browns and a biscuit. Yum!
    Eileen R.

    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.

    Great homemade food that was hot and fast. We called ahead and got on the wait list and was seated right away. Local friendly place with a great menu. We had the Irish skillet that came with 2 eggs over easy, hash browns, onions and a side homemade biscuit or English muffin. They have a great menu with a variety of breakfast & lunch items. We're looking forward to coming back.

    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!

    The food was delicious, really good with a incredible staff . We were seated quickly even being on a weekend. They have books and crayons to keep Kids busy . Will go back when in the area for sure definitely recommend . The ambiance is family friendly.

    Delicious delicious, we were passing through town looking for a good breakfast spot. Came across Butterfields and so glad we did. I truly enjoyed my breakfast which was full of flavor. If you live in the area or is passing through please give them a try. You won't be disappointed.

    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.

    Sausage and bacon skillet with biscuit

    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!!

    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.

    Irish Benedict
    Dawn D.

    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

    Corned beef hash breakfast

    Passed this plaza for years and never noticed the restaurant. Now it's a top choice for weekend brunch. The foods always hot and the service once seated is fast. Small place but they're packing every dish with flavor. A hidden gem in Parrish!

    I was not impressed. Not bad but nothing special. Would help if the a/c was higher. With all the other close places I doubt I will go back.

    Ellenton Cafe - Spinach omelet

    Ambiance: 4 stars Staff: 3.5…read moreFood: 2.5 stars I appreciate the fact that it's a nice little hole in the wall restaurant, reasonably priced, plays oldies music, and has definitely been around for a long time. That being said, the food did not hit the spot. My chicken fried steak was the kind that comes out of a frozen bag (and tasted as much), and the gravy was the same. I love me some good chicken fried steak, but this was almost inedible. I just couldn't do it. My daughter's burger didn't look that great either. Can't say much about the waitress because my interactions with them were limited to drinks, ordering and check. I guess I expected more from a place that has been around long enough to get things down to a science. A certain other breakfast place across the street has MUCH better food.

    Dawn was our server on our 8a visit during this past week…read more Nice seating out front so I can't speak for inside. Drinks amd food came very quickly. The omelets were a generous size for us. We tried the spinach feta and the farmer's. Holy spinach in that one! Def took over the flavor with how much spinach. I asked for crumbled sausage to be added but it was so minimal I could barely taste it. Nicely toasted home fries though. Overall, quick joint with decent meal. Nice outdoor seating. 2 omelet meals and our bill was about $30. Will have to go back and try lunch.

My favorite Hungarian dish chicken paprikas. Honed in on that..... and then she asked if we would like a homemade lemonade, of course, why not! Let me tell you, that was such a refreshing drink. Perfect for the smothering heat. Food came out and I was intrigued. A little different looking than I'm used to but knew it looked delicious. It was!! Mixed all that yumminess together and added a touch of salt on top and it melted in my mouth! No they did not pay me to write this, yes we paid for our food. Next is dessert! I can't remember the name of it but it kind of reminded me of tiramisu with chocolate syrup at the bottom, walnuts and grapes, light fluffy cake, and whipped cream with chocolate syrup over it. It was heaven! Nothing felt heavy in my stomach and I felt very satisfied leaving. We will return!

The waitress was very nice and answered my questions about the different dishes. It was difficult to make a decision because everything on the menu sounded like I wanted to try it. The food portions are large and the dishes are presented like in a gourmet restaurant. I tried the chicken paprikash and my husband had a pork steak. Everything was fabulous! You can tell the food is freshly prepared when you hear the schnitzel being pounded in the kitchen and ten minutes later, it is served at the table next to you. It was a great dining experience and I will be back for sure.
