Is the ice cream good? Absolutely. Every scoop delivered. We went with the Espresso Bean Latte and…read moreMadagascar Vanilla...both smooth, flavorful, and exactly what you'd hope for on a hot day. With a wide variety of options, there's no shortage of flavors to suit just about anyone. At 91 degrees in San Angelo, it hit the spot perfectly. The shop itself has a cute, inviting ambience that adds to the experience. That said, the service left a lot to be desired. It felt rushed and impersonal...no warmth, no smiles, just a "get you through the line" kind of interaction. Not quite the friendly small-town vibe you might expect. Unfortunately, that lack of hospitality overshadows the positives, and it's enough to make us think twice about coming back, which is a real shame.

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.

I picked up banana pudding, their dirt cake version and two unicorn cupcakes for my kids. They loved it! I'm giving it 4 stars only bc the girl checking us out didn't seem to know much about the items while I was asking questions.

So when I called Carters they informed me that they indeed make them fresh I was so excited. It was a last minuet order and they still managed to accommodate me, I was so thankful because I was ordering all the way from California. They had them delivered on my Dads birthday .. he was just over the Moon. Both of my parents couldn't believe they were sugar free.. THEY WERE DELICIOUS!!!! I just wanted to give the shop a huge thank you for such great customer service and for making these cupcakes so delicious..

I walked in expecting pie. I don't know why. Would this place have cake; does this guy bake?…read more Perhaps Creme Broulee, oh what the hay! To what did my wondering eyes then appear, the familiar face of a chocolatier. A smile so bright, and a charm beyond measure. We had just tumbled in to some Texas style treasure. All the rhyming aside I'm totally wondering why no one has told me about this place. As a person who enjoys eating regularly (ok 4 or7 times a day) I am always looking for something delectable to top my meal off. Something decadent, a dessert that makes me feel like I've just had an out of body experience. The sign out front had the word CHOCOLATE capitalized and so I decided it was time to take the plunge after driving by at least 10 times on the way to school and going to the grocery store. A jovial young man comes out and starts telling us everything. Explaining what this is and what that is. Truffles, Brittle with BACON IN IT (er, uh Squittle that is) and peanut brittle with red pepper flakes in it (Bronco Brittle is what it's called here pardners). He handed me a small white peanutty explosion of flavor that had my eyes rolling into my head. This guy had me. Oh I was totally and undeniably chocolate candy whupped! So as I'm trying to decide what I'm going to buy the candies are still gliding across my taste buds. Is that my leg moving? No I just thought it was. I'm having a reaction of pure bliss and of course this man is totally doing this to draw me further into the chocolate abyss from whence there is no return. Gotta think now. Can't spend my whole paycheck here. I steeled my emotions and I bought a couple of things and took them home. NO I haven't eaten them all yet! HMMMMPH! Of course now I have to find a secret place to hide all this stuff. I wonder if the attic is cool enough to keep these this time of year? Shhhh, don't tell my wife. Everything here is Texas themed and is in no way just a regular type of candy. Yes he makes candy other than chocolate but I'm a chocolate fiend and it is hard to focus on anything else. There was that one piece of candy with the bacon in it though. Now I'm of the opinion that you can add bacon to just about anything and it will be good. Peanut Brittle called Squittle with bacon in it is masterful offering of piggy peanut perfection. I purchased some Tumbleweeds too: a concoction of chocolate and coconut that a put a look of unadulterated ecstasy on my wife's face. Hey I thought I was the only one that could do that?!?! We also bought the Texas Buckshot truffles and they were amazing. These were beyond excellent but the one thing I truly enjoyed was The Original Concho Caramel. Chocolaty coating around a chewy caramel center with pecans. This is 7th heaven kind of stuff. The familiar face I saw there was James Crowder the proprietor. I recognized his face from the countless times I had seen him as salesman of the month, year, century at a realtor many years ago here in town. I wondered where he had gone and now that I know where he is and the amazing talent he is sharing with us here in the Concho Valley I am a customer for life. I've had chocolate brought to me from overseas: Italian, Belgian, French, and Irish and they were great but James has taken chocolate to the next level. He's made Chocolate Texas' next big thing to brag about! Now you know. So go get some! Support your local chocolatier!

Small, medium, large, cup or waffle cone, fancy chocolate cones, and the cold marble slab where they mix in candy and extra calories for you.

Friendly service from college-aged kids, and kinda high prices, but hey, if it's really house-made ice cream, then I guess that's cool.

They don't have seating so be prepared for that but there was a ledge outside that my friends and I plopped down on. We also didn't only go in once, we all ordered headed outside and enjoyed our orders but then after a few minutes, we all went back in one by one to order something else. Each of us got multiples of orders. Also, they offer a pretty hefty military discount which is nice for those in the area. Definitely recommend checking this place out. The elote is delish and their strawberry banana smooth was good, just needed some extra blending. Their agua frescas were also refreshing.
