It may be a bit bright inside but it's also beautiful. It is hard to find a staff as good as this one who are always attentive, friendly and helping each other out in an effort to help you. The food is fresh and just plain good. I haven't had chicken fried steak this tender and fresh in years. Everything I've had there is exceptional and you'll find their cinnamon rolls one of the best around. I highly recommend this place for all of the right reasons. read more

One star for the service (which was actually 5-star). The food was disgusting. The biscuits were cold - as was the bacon. The biscuit had been reheated so many times in a microwave that it was brick bard - and still cold. The bacon? Well it was so old that the meat was dried-looking and the grease on it was actually cold and thick on the meat - like after the grease in the frying pan gets cold. Who gets by with serving this food-poisoning-waiting-to happen? I saw a customer there who was obviously going thru chemo treatment. Her immune system was probably very compromised. I hope she didn't order the bacon. read more

We came here yesterday for the first time and had breakfast. The service was excellent. The food was fast and tasty. We came again today and had lunch this time. I had the tuna melt which was perfect. Very yummy comfort food. read more

We ordered lunch. The mediocre lunch was made up for by a delicious cookie dough pie a la mode. I may come back for breakfast, which hopefully receives more effort than their lunches which tasted like canned green beans, boxed mashed potatoes, canned chicken salad, and all entirely unseasoned. Bland and boring. Why the three stars? Clean, friendly, edible if overly plain, and AMAZING pie. Next time I shall plant myself on a bar stool and eat just pie. read more

The food is good the place is clean however I saw the cook touching and placing his bare hands on the food accommodating the food on the plate he was also touching a kitchen rag with the other hand so I told a manager about it that's not right he shouldn't happen also they charge for the salsa $1.19? Never heard of that one before plus the salsa was supposed to be hot and tasted more like catchup I do like the place and the food but I'm not sure if I will be returning Too bad read more

If you want to know what grease, butter, and oil tastes like, I guess this is your place. Otherwise, don't waste your time. You couldn't taste any of the chicken fried steak between being covered in mediocre at best gravy and and being deep fried. Hash browns were as bland as possible and so were the eggs. I guess the good news is that they can manage to scramble some eggs. The sourdough toast tasted like nothing but oil as well. They're only getting two stars because the place was clean and the waitress was friendly. I won't be returning. read more

Folks who have given this place a bad review have obviously not tasted their pie. They bake all their own pies, which are the best I've tasted in Tucson. Coconut cream is sinfully rich, Dutch apple can't be beat. They also have pecan, rhubarb, chocolate cream, peach cobbler- lots more. Come for pie and coffee, but don't miss this place. read more

If you only want desert, come here. Everything else is admittedly frozen. Why would I pay $8-9 for a chicken fried steak that was frozen on purpose. Come on guys, some of your customers still have tastebuds. Waitresses very friendly and kind, but just not worth it. Denny's already perfected eggs and hashbrowns, so make it really worth it to visit your place. Tucson trend, charge more for less. The snow birds and college kids will pay for it. No more. read more

Not too fond of this place. Just okay, would be the right word. Service is nice and friendly, but for the cost = portion size is a bit small. Nothing fancy, just basic and minimal food. Ordered the French toast and it was made from one of those Sally Hanson white bread ( not allot of excitement ). Otherwise, if your tired and just want to go somewhere on the east side with your family this is your best bet. Not too busy, fast food. read more

Love love love local places like this! So tired of Village Inn and IHOP here on east side. Fast service even on Sunday and food is great. Good coffee too, nice and strong and pleanty of it. read more

Best breakfast place in town - at either of their 2 locations. Food is consistently good, service is friendly and the restaurants are locally owned. Best sausage gravy in town. You can't go wrong with anything you choose from the menu. And, to make things even better, you have to try their new steakhouse dinner restaurant next door - Garrett's. read more

I came here for lunch not really knowing what I wanted and wasn't really impressed when I left. The menu is American Standards and fairly short, one page for breakfast and one page for lunch/dinner. I had the meatloaf which comes with mashed potatoes and gravy, some corn(just the kernels), and a roll with butter. I ordered Iced tea to drink. It really wasn't much better than a Hungry Man TV dinner. I was still hungry after finishing but the waitress slapped the check down on my table before I could order anything else. The service was pleasant but the cook constantly calling out the waitresses name from the kitchen was annoying, this combined with the bland furniture made for a pretty ho-hum experience. On the plus side the price was ok, the glass of iced tea and meal ran me about $10 before tip. read more

Excellent value and service. Basic food very tasty. Two hot cakes 3 pieces of bacon and 2 eggs for 6.25. Hubby had a fish sandwich and cole slaw for 5.85. Nothing fancy but good value for breakfast and lunch. read more

Amazing breakfast, speedy service, friendly staff and a comfortable environment. Our favorite breakfast restaurant. Biscuits and gravy ROCK!!!! Chicken fried steak is great, home fries are awesome. I would highly recommend!!!! Have been here several times and never once had an issue. Huge portion sizes, I always feel full!! We love bread and butter cafe!! Keep up the great work. Thanks for an wonderful filling breakfast with great staff!!! read more

This was a wonderful place for lunch! We all ordered something different and were all extremely pleased. I had the best tuna melt on rye that I have ever had. Homemade potato salad that was delicious. Homemade pies, too. The fresh apple was the best I've ever had. EVER. Excellent service from our server. Highly recommend this gem. read more

Portion of food is right for the price. Not the best decor inside the restaurant. Service was nice but our server was trying to get us out faster than letting us take our time. Food was ok, not as amazing as Biscuits but good. Over all I would like to give a 3 1/2 stars. read more

This is the BEST place in Tucson to get a fast, easy simple breakfast or lunch. The service is amazing, the food is amazing and everything about it is awesome. I found this place when my mom came to visit me at school. The service is so friendly and very attentive. They have everything from classic american to mexican style food. Lots of flavor and the servers always listen to picky request and make sure it comes out to your table right. 100/10 would recommend, it's also fairly cheap and there's something for everyone. read more

I stumbled on this place when I was going to get groceries. Walking in someone greeted me with a happy friendly voice. I was seated right away and the waitress Julie came over and was amazing! Coffee is refilled frequently and fast. The food was so Delicious and portions were plenty! I was so pleased by her service that I come back a few times a month and ask for her table. I've also been to their other location which is also very good with food and service ! read more

Best breakfast place in town. Great staff with several fresh choices. Desserts are all made fresh daily

I'm just a basic breakfast eater. You become complacent when ordering eggs. This place made my eggs perfectly and absolutely no brown. 2 eggs over medium no runny whites, it was just like it was made at home on a clean pan. Thank you read more

We've been stopping by Bread and Butter for 10 plus years. The one near Columbus... Figured we'd try the new location. The tradition continues: Great service, great food, always consistent. Warning, this is not a fancy high end snooty place to eat. It is warm, welcoming and homey. Love this place! Local treasure! read more

Great food, great prices. good service, friendly staff, clean, and the best coffee in town. This is our go to breakfast spot and we are never dissapointed. read more

Great place. High energy staff everytime my wife and I have been there( 6/7 times). Food has always been very good with fast service and good prices. read more

Atmosphere was good, as was the friendly service. And the food came incredibly fast but was just sub-par for my palette: got the daily special, Cold Turkey Sandwich, which came non-toasted and with very little turkey. The french fries were the "school cafeteria" skinny variety and the side salad was mostly just a bed of lettuce with tomato and carrot shavings. Again, nothing was "bad"...just not very good. read more

PROS: Food was all prepared perfectly, price wasn't bad, love that they have daily specials, homemade pies, staff was very attentive and polite. I seen somebody complain about the pie but we tried the peach and banana cream and enjoyed both. CONS: I might have to edit this later after trying them a couple of more times because our first time there we didn't have any. OVERALL: I will be frequenting them again. Nice little stop after a Target trip :) read more

1st time I was really annoyed! I ordered the Pecan Pancakes and my wife ordered a chicken salad. She brings two pancakes and tells me "the other pancake will be here in a few minutes." What? Then we get the bill and there's an extra charge on the bill because my wife had asked for chicken strips with the salad, and no mention of extra charges! I've eaten here before with much success but this time I felt like I was being rushed and spent about $20 for very little food! Next time I will choose a different place! read more

Love this place. Never disappointed. The corned beef hash is among the best I've had. The green chiles omelets are terrific. Service is always great...even when very busy. read more

We came to this little hidden gem during U of A homecoming weekend last week. From the Google reviews, we decided to check it out. Located in a little strip mall, it didn't look fancy. Small place but once we walked in, I loved the homey and inviting energy. It was definitely a mom pop establishment, but the aroma of the food was heavenly. Our waitress was very friendly and accommodating. I could tell the majority of the customers are locals and I loved the ambience. As for the food.....DELICIOUS! I had French toast, eggs over easy, hash browns and bacon. Everything tasted amazing. Just when I thought I was done, I overheard our waitress ask one of the customers if they wanted a slice of coconut cream pie of pecan pie. I knew I couldn't leave without having a slice; especially since coconut cream pie is my all-time favorite. The slice was big and I could have easily shared it with my husband, but I was being selfish. He ended up getting a slice because he knew I was not going to let him have a bite. Talk about delicious! It was probably the best coconut cream pie I've ever had. All in all, this place is amazing! Much better than the chain restaurants and very reasonable for the amount of food you get. We will definitely be coming back next time we're in the area! read more

Horrible staff. Very rude. Don't take any kind of complaints or input in a professional manner. Owner is very inconsiderate of others. I would never go there again nor recommend this place to anyone. read more

Bad experience at Bread and Butter this morning, it was a bit warm when we sat down so we asked our server if it would be possible to prop the door open for some fresh air, she responded oh no it against the law then walked to the kitchen and mentioned our request to the short order cook as she came out of the kitchen an elderly patron commented loud enough for me to hear him "maybe someone should prop his mouth open" then the cook reciprocated yeah maybe he should step into the kitchen for awhile, not only did I find it rude for the old man to comment in such a derogatory manner but for an employee to reinforce such behavior, I was appalled and embarrassed, I stood up walked over to the old mans table looked him in the eye and said if you're going to talk about someone maybe you should do it under your breath, shut up and go sit down, I politely went back to my table and paid for the two iced tea's and tipped our server for her time, and we went elsewhere for breakfast. read more

positives: the place was very clean, the service was friendly and efficient, and the food came out very quickly and all accurate. negatives: food was mediocre. the veggies in my veggie omelette weren't cooked (still raw), the hashbrowns were bland, and the biscuits and gravy were like paste. My Mom got the pecan pancakes and they were okay. with all the other east side locations for breakfast I wouldn't go to this one again read more

Down to earth, old school feel. Great service. Clean. Food is ok. Nothing stands out to be great.

Great tuna melt. I can't wait to come back and try their pies. The service was amazing as well. It felt like I was eating at a relatives house. read more

This is our 5th time here. The staff is great and food is good and fast! Only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because there is no children's menu. read more

We love this place it's great service, clean food is home made. Try the Swiss and mushroom omelet it is sublime.

Very clean, fast service, friendly, has "specials", home baked cinnamon rolls and pies, and good coffee. Today I ordered an egg over easy and it was barely cooked with runny white. Did not eat it. But most of the time everything is good. Guess it depends on whoa is cooking. I can't quite give it 5 stars for that reason. But I will go back as it is a good little café. read more

Love Love Love Bread & Butter Cafe.Good food...GREAT prices. We go to both locations. Best Burgers & Fries in town.

Called in to place an order, waitress couldn't hear over the din, so she hung up on me.

This place is always great! The food is delicious - from the chicken fried chicken to the daily specials, and everyone in our family loves the French dip! The desserts however are to die for! I always have to leave room and then have to decide whether to go with an old favorite or try one of the new flavors. Best of all though, better than the food, is the staff. They are nice, friendly and make you feel at home! read more

Went here this morning for breakfast with my girlfriend and man do we regret that. I got the chicken fried steak with hash browns and scrambled eggs with sourdough toast. The steak seemed small, the eggs were raw in parts and the hash browns liquified as soon as I put them in my mouth, which was pretty gross. The lady got the bacon and cheese omelette and upgraded to the biscuits and gravy(which it's hard for me to say biscuits because for $2.59, it only came with one... Which last I checked, biscuits aren't that expensive to make so I felt 2 would have been appropriate for that price and apparently there's normally another charge for gravy... That doesn't make sense. But enough ranting) with grits. She said the grits were ok but the omelette was undercooked and personal opinion aside, the biscuits and gravy were good. Although everything was bland. I hope this was just a bad day for the cooking staff... The service was exceptional or else this would have been a one star review. Unfortunately, we will not be back read more
