Speaking of someone who's been going to this place since I first came into my neighborhood in the 2000s, it was right down the block from where I live. Overall, I've always had mixed feelings about this place. It was definitely well kept and well decorated with a nice little solarium-like eating area. The eating environment was pretty clean and the staff was approachable for the most part. Food wise? That's...Where I tend to break on the matter. You see, while it was good with sandwiches, everything else was pretty mediocre; a lot of their traditional Greek dishes tend to have little flavor or be a bit watery, and they frequently relied on the microwave to serve it hot which is a huge no-no in the restaurant business. In my personal opinion, where Bread and Butter's strength lies, aside from sandwiches, was international products that it would sell on the side like authentic Turkish delights, pastries that were actually pretty tasty to eat and kept cold, and soups that would always be kept heated and guaranteed to be good. Ontop of that, their pastries were actually really impressive and I'm surprised just how little credit they got for that. I'm going to miss all that very much, and in truth I regret not trying their sandwiches instead. Although Bread and Butter wasn't my favorite place, nor would I consider it gourmet, it had its charm and it was definitely an iconic staple within Tarpon Springs and its community. To see it go is honestly saddening but no good thing lasts forever; That it was there to begin with is what matters the most.

The fish & chips was a generous portion of fish perfectly cooked - crispy exterior & steaming moist fish inside. Grilled Grouper sandwich was not as generous on the portion but was very well seasoned with a nice sauce with a little bit of heat/spice on the back side. Nice selection of 12 taps of Florida micro breweries. All in all good place for lunch but have to try dinner here sometime.

Drinks are pretty pricey but you get a bottle of water when you eat in. Everything is tasty and pretty fairly priced, but because they are small, food comes out staggered, so everyone at your table gets served at different times- which is nice for ensuring you get hot food when it's hot, but not exactly convenient when you are being respectful of your table mates. So- be sure you know that when you sit- eat when it comes out, or it will get cold when you wait.

The service was excellent as always, but I just was not thrilled with the food this time. We tried the crab eggrolls I think is what it was called. Maybe it was lobster. I don't know. I ate half of one and gave the rest to my friend. I tried the three pepper crab soup I could not finish. It did not like it at all. I had the standard fried fish platter with grouper, scallops, and shrimp. This was actually delicious and so was the sweet potato fries and the macaroni salad and I typically do not like macaroni salad at all, but this was delicious. I took home smoked salmon, fish spread, and a large container of the lobster bisque. The smoked salmon spread definitely had more cream cheese than fish not bad tasting just disappointed on the amount of cream cheese. First time I've had their lobster bisque and it will be the last time. This is more like a lobster soup. It has so many chunks of celery in it and I've never had a bisque with large celery chunks before it wasn't bad tasting necessarily, but when you're thinking you're about to eat some bisque and it taste like this it's quite disappointing. I don't think they use Sherry in this particular bisque.
