Adorable and lively cafe with an amazingly delicious brunch menu and a super friendly staff. I would definitely return again!

Came up to Jersey for a basketball tournament at Hoop Group Headquaters and needed a place for breakfast. The Buttered Biscuit had high reviews and was extremely close. This place is located on the corner and parking appears to be street parking only. I stopped by around 11:30 and was able to be seated immediately. They have bar seating which is first come first serve as well as tables throughout. Bar seating was much quicker. After about 5 mins my waitress came and took my order. Challah French Toast, Homefries and Bacon. 15/20 minutes go by and my food came. The Homefries are a good portion. They are seasoned well. The bacon was warm and crispy as well. The challah French toast was delicious. I enjoyed my meal overall. Overall this is a good place that met my expectations. The food was as expected and the portion size was good as well. They do charge a fee for using your card as shown on my receipt. A tad bit tacky to me but I understand. read more

Enjoyed a nice breakfast here with my pup. Staff was very kind and even brought water out for my dog. Service was fast and the food was delicious. My husband and I both enjoyed our omelettes and the breakfast potatoes were nice and seasoned. The outside seating area was nice and covered with some shade. Would definitely come back! read more

Lively little cafe near the shore with a fantastic menu. I ended up getting the corned beef hash which comes with a large biscuit. Hot chocolate had less chocolate flavor and was sweeter than I would have liked, but at least it was made with milk instead of water. There was enough food in this portion to take leftovers home too, a nice plus as I now get to enjoy this hash again for lunch during the work week Would love to come back again at some point! read more

Buttered Biscuit is so cozy and welcoming! Dave the owner is awesome and Gabby who took our order was just as fabulous! Things to know: - Counter is first come first serve. We got lucky and 3 seats were waiting for us - Street parking - No reservations so wait patiently it's worth it - Get a savory and sweet dish We love starting with the Hot Off the Grill Crumb Cake - this is a must! My favorite was the Copenhagen especially if you like smoked salmon-get your home fries crispy yummmmmmm! Lemon Zest Mascarpone French Toast Delishhhhh Dave's Homemade Corned Beef Hash - this I could have done away with the asparagus but overall very tasty! And they fill you up with coffee the entire time! Great service! Wish this was closer to home but always worth a trip. I'll be back! read more

While the portions of food were abundant, quality was average at best. Biscuits were dry and semi hard. Sausage gravy lacked flavor and seasoning. Fruit for the fruit bowl was picked and cut too early with very little sweetness or flavor. The deal breaker was the HAIR found in the fruit bowl and not receiving a side order. Service was just ok, but honestly felt like I could have walked off without paying and no one would have noticed. Hostess was a Stronza and had an attitude problem when asked about paying the bill after waiting 12 minutes. She acted like she couldnt be bothered. I will be back to the NJ shore, but will not be frequenting this establishment. In fairness they did remove the side and the fruit bowl from the bill. read more

My wife and I haven't been there for quite a while , but the last time we were there we had a great breakfast as I had the corned beef hash with eggs over easy , homefries, toast and coffee. My wife had eggs benedict. A great place with great food ,friendly service and a nice atmosphere. read more

I had wanted to try someplace new for brunch so I found The Buttered Biscuit on Yelp. The interior is cute/cozy with a nice long counter and merch for sale in the front. We ordered the corned beef hash benedict dish and blueberry pancakes. Food is good along with their coffee. A nice stop for brunch or lunch. read more

I love the food and the service, although I only ate there once. Time for another visit.

Back again and I wasn't disappointed at all. Service was perfect. The staff were welcoming, attentive and the wait was not too long. This time I ordered from the lunch menu, and I was happy with my choice - Daddy Dave's Maryland Crab Cake Sandwich (Homemade Crab Cake sautéed & served on a Grilled Bun w/ Lettuce, Tomato, Red Onion and a side of Herb Mayo) everything was fresh and tasty. We also ordered the Ho Cakes - a southern-style corn pancake topped with butter and raspberry jam. Oh my goodness that was delicious. This cafe feeling atmosphere with an amazing selection of breakfast and lunch to choose from, was the perfect start to my day. read more

Such a cute cafe in a quaint town. We were here after Labor Day and the restaurant and shopping strip were still hoping! They offer outside dining as well as 2 sides on the inside. We called ahead to get an idea of the wait time. It wasn't too bad and we only waited a few minutes to be seated. They have a great menu and our meals were delicious!! I wasn't that impressed with the biscuit that was given with each meal. It was a little dry for my liking. I expected more from it due to the name of the restaurant. And the butter could be more sweeter. But with that said my meal was absolutely delicious!!! I had the Cali crab omelette. AMAZING!! I definitely recommend this restaurant. read more

We came here both mornings for brunch during the Sea Hear Now festival. Everything was delicious. I loved the caramelized grapefruit with strawberries, veggie omelet, biscuits and cinnamon butter, and side of pork roll one day and crispy bacon the other. I loved the mix of sweet and savory. Everyone loved their food and raved about the crab cakes and French toast varieties. It was easy to accommodate our groups of 5 and 9. I would definitely come here again. read more

Overall such a good experience here. We went on a cold day so the wait was 0 minutes. They are BYO! liquor store nearby for proseccos for the mimosas. OJ is great. The food was really solid. Copenhagen hit so hard with the lox! The only thing I didn't love was the biscuit itself, it wasn't very flavorfully unfortunately. Would absolutely return though. Great prices too. read more

This is the place that other places want to be. They are the real deal. They don't fry their french toast in oil like other places, it's griddled. The biscuits are also fabulous as is the honey butter and grilled crumb cake. Great coffee, too. read more

One of the cutest spots in town. Nice staff, decent food. On the town green and near the train station and a quick walk to the beach - it's a great location. Worth a visit if you're in Bradley. read more

The Buttered Biscuit is my favorite breakfast spot in Bradley Beach! The food is consistently delicious, the staff is friendly, and the atmosphere is always warm and welcoming. I stop in every day whenever I'm visiting Bradley Beach. I've tried the other places, but why mess with perfection? Great food at reasonable prices--I highly recommend it! read more

Good menu, great food, friendly service, nice atmosphere for inside dining. Food was served quickly. Menu had a nice variety. Iced coffee was surprisingly good for a restaurant. We had high expectations for the biscuits given the restaurant name but found them dry and flavorless (except for the cinnamon butter that was served with it). Everything else was fantastic - eggs, bacon, French toast, breakfast burrito, pancakes. Highly recommend! read more

BEWARE! The waitress was extremely rude and abusive towards me. We were at a table for two and the table for six next to us. She kept pointing her rear end right in our faces instead of taking the order from the other table, from a different position. then she almost burned me with a pot of coffee by just suddenly jamming it in front of my face without warning me, ( she made a sarcastic comment about my reaction). then she removed my plate without saying anything just kind of putting her elbow in front of my face very rudely and abruptly. Passive aggressive or just aggressive. The biscuit was dry and crumbly ( it sucked) which is odd given the name of this restaurant. read more

I have had this spot on my bookmarks forever because I have been dying to try this famous grilled crumb cake. Thankfully I finally ended up in this area. We got a nice table for two under a big umbrella so even though it was over 90 degrees we were still comfortable. Our server Lori brought us over some menus along with some ice waters and I also ordered an unsweetened iced tea. They had so many good things to choose from but I figured since I was definitely getting some crumb cake I should choose a lunch entree for myself. We were there on a Sunday around 1:30 so it could go either way. They had some really tempting French toast on the menu too. So I decided on the grilled pastrami and Swiss on rye and that came with some coleslaw and a pickle and of course the Homemade Crumb Cake grilled in butter and sprinkled w/ cinnamon sugar. My hubby went with one of his all time breakfast faves Homemade corned beef hash. They had a special that was served with grilled asparagus, Swiss cheese, poached eggs, and hollandaise served with a homemade biscuit with cinnamon butter and jelly. We had our crumb cake first... now I see what everyone raves about. It just melts in your mouth. It's so moist and delicious. I love crumb cake and I think this was the best I have ever had. Then our entrees came out. Everything looked delicious. I put some coleslaw and mustard on my pastrami sandwich and took a bite. It was so good. I was happy with my selection. I asked my hubby how his food was and he said the corned beef hash was some of the best he's ever had and he said the biscuit was great too. So of course I had to sample the biscuit with some of that delicious cinnamon butter and he definitely wasn't wrong. I'm so happy I finally made it here. Our server Lori was so great and friendly and all of the food was so delicious. I'm definitely going to make it a point to be back in this area just so I can try more of their delicious food.

I thought I had reviewed this place before and not given it 5 stars. I took a date, someone I really connect with and wanted to impress, here because it's not far from where she lives and just seemed like someplace she would like. I don't remember being a spacious, but the place looks very inviting once you enter. The staff is friendly and efficient. We took our time ordering because we were talking. The coffee was better than I remembered it. My date had the crab omelette which she gave me some of and was absolutely delicious. Crab was light and cooked just perfectly and so were the eggs very fluffy not overdone. She also had a biscuit with the cinnamon butter. I eat some of that delicious. I'm not a big fan of that style of biscuit, but it was very good. We had bacon also cooked perfectly. I did not try any of her potatoes, but she ate them all so I'm assuming they were good. She also ordered the corned beef hash as a side. I had some and is was very good. Definitely not out of a can. I had the Challah French toast, with just butter and syrup, excellent. Probably one place in my life, down in Florida was better and that was it. She took most of her food home, but overall a very pleasant and delicious dining experience definitely will be back. read more

You're not supposed to judge a book by its cover, and you're not supposed to pick a restaurant because of its name. Oh well. The Millennial Chum and I stopped here for brunch after a weird/uneven town-wide yard sale in nearby Ocean Grove (which had like 10 yard sales despite the fact that that town was tailormade for such an event; maybe they'll figure it out next year). I can always get down for a buttered biscuit, and both of us were in a plant challenge that required us to eat 30 different plants in a week so the app section promoting the grapefruit and pineapple helped seal the deal for us. The location is super convenient though it was definitely busy midday on a sunny, hot Saturday. We secured parking about 100 yards away (we initially parked near the train station but weren't convinced that we wouldn't be towed during the meal despite it being the weekend) and were pleased to find zero wait for either indoor or outdoor seating. Since some of the outdoor tables had shade, that's where we went, right on the sidewalk for some primo canine chum viewing. We split the aforementioned appetizers, the grapefruit and pineapple. Great optics, especially for the pineapple, and there's something about cold fruit during a heat wave that hits differently. That said, both of us felt the grapefruit was an unfortunate miss; the caramelized sugar is burned, basically like a Creme Brulé situation, and the tang of the burn doesn't mesh well with the acidity of the grapefruit, in my opinion - it basically doubles down on a really intense flavor. I'd suggest they maintain the sugar to balance it out (it's the right idea), but leave the mini blowtorch at home. The pineapple was better; little on the tougher side but I'm not sure there's a way to avoid that when the pineapple is made-to-order like this. The inclusion of the strawberries on both was clutch though. In the least surprising development of the day, the biscuits were the star. I got the Eggs Oscar (Eggs Benedict with crabcake and asparagus), which was decent. I wouldn't have gotten the asparagus if we weren't in the plant challenge, especially if I'd known they were chopped into the dish like this, but they weren't bad, just crunchier than I prefer (and that's on me). The almighty biscuit was perfect, and the hollandaise wasn't utilized too heavily, which to me is always the downfall of that dish. Surprisingly, the crabcake was kind of a non-entity here - I could barely taste it so I'm not sure if it wasn't a big portion comparatively speaking or if it just got drowned out by the other flavors. But by far my favorite part was when the Millennial Chum last minute ordered a single biscuit to split, which we applied with cinnamon butter. Heavenly. The service was very good. Our waitress was clearly busy (understandably so) but stopped by regularly and was friendly/engaging, good-naturedly teasing us from time to time. The food came out pretty much immediately, and I don't recall a wait time for really anything; a well-oiled machine in most respects. Also, we were both visibly stunned at the bill - $4 apps? In a Jersey Shore town during summer? Truly wild. Lot of solid intangibles here, and at the very least I've found a biscuit that rivals Roy Rogers (RIP) for the best all time. read more

The service is terrible, I gave this place a couple of tries and the waitresses just aren't good. I got ignored the first time and just got a what do you want, never heard specials. Next visit, my food was given to another table and there was zero acknowledgement of the mistake or apology for my food being 20 minutes late. read more

I got the southern style biscuits with gravy. It tasted so bland and I felt like i was going to vomit. The table also had stains and was dirty. I did not enjoy my experience here. read more

I was in the neighborhood across the street looking at the open market event when I saw this place. Popped over and was seated right away. Not only was I seated right away the food was there within literally a minute of ordering! I was really hungry but even that did not stop me from being disappointed. The omelette was okay with the goat cheese in the middle along with spinach and dried tomatoes. Threw some hot sauce for some taste. The home fries was good really hard to not like potatoes in my opinion!! And now for what they are supposed to be known for. The biscuit. This was good. I think I have eaten one too many biscuits from Popeyes as I expected them to be salty. But nothing some butter won't fix. Over all I expected more. Maybe some other dishes may be better here. read more

Service of this place was great! We got seated quickly, outside, comfy seats. Our server Gabbi was so nice, didn't rush us at all. We ordered the pineapple wedge, Lorraine ho cakes, BELT and I got the country style Benedict with a biscuit instead of the English muffin. Food came fast. I think that was the problem, biscuit was kind of dry and the poached egg was way over cooked and everything felt a little underseasoned. Good portions. It was a busy MDW so maybe that's why. read more

I wanted brunch this particular day and I found this place on the map, so I asked my MIL if she wanted to join me and she did. She subsequently invited my SIL and her BF which was fine. When we got there, we put our name on a waitlist and they told us 30min wait. It was more like 20min because some people weren't there when the hostess called their names. So be there to make sure you hear your name otherwise, your table is given away. My SIL and SILBF had returned to the house for something and so my MIL and I waited outside. When they called us, we were seated and my SIL and SILBF came shortly after. Everything on the breakfast menu looked amazing. But since this place is called The Buttered Biscuit, I knew I had to try their biscuit, but I wasn't in the mood for something overly heavy like benedict or carby like flapjacks or french toast, so I went with the Big G, so I could get the eggs and the biscuit and sausage patty. Their biscuits are very good - soft, moist, buttery, and goes well with jam. Kind wish I had butter but it's fine. The others liked their omelette and french toast. The french toast is really to die for. It's obviously a busy place so get there early and put your name down. But have at least one person from your party stick around. Service is super quick and waitress is super energetic. You can't go wrong this place. read more

Thank you Yelp! When I'm on the road looking for a good place to eat and have no idea where to go, I find little gems like this restaurant. The food was fantastic and considering it was a holiday weekend when we went they were a little short staffed but still providing good service. The food was delicious and came out hot! Those biscuits were HUGE and moist. We sat outside and it was brunch time in which it was very busy. Will return next time we're in town! read more

I came here years ago and remembered it being really good so I came again when in the area. We were seated right away, ordered, and our food came out super fast. The food was okay--the egg part of the omelette was a bit thin and the ingredients kind of just stuffed in there. A few home fries, that tasted like a lot of butter. The biscuit was crumbly but we had to ask for regular butter as they only offer sweet cinnamon butter and jelly. It was an okay meal, though probably on the level of a diner, definitely not what I remembered. read more

My friends and I headed to the Buttered Biscuit because of their extensive interesting menu. We were greeted by their very nice staff and owner Dave who was a fountain of information on the genesis of many of their menu items. Dave gave us many suggestions on his favorite items. We decided to try his favorite corned beef hash with asparagus and hollandaise. It was loaded with meat and very tasty. I must admit, I was the one that wanted the next menu item which was lemon blueberry French Toast. Unfortunately it came to our table lukewarm and we sent it back. They returned the item to us, same as we sent it back reheated in the micro... ughh... The waitress was kind enough to take it off our bill. If I am back in the NJ area, I would like to give them another try.... read more

The Buttered Biscuit - New American Near Me - Bradley Beach, New Jersey

Every once in a while, you find a place that instantly feels like home--and for me, that place is The Buttered Biscuit in Bradley Beach. I've been coming here for years, and no matter how many brunch spots I try around the Jersey Shore or beyond, I keep coming back to this cozy, welcoming little gem. From the warm hospitality to the comforting, flavor-packed food, it's everything you want in a local favorite. Let's start with the atmosphere. The Buttered Biscuit is exactly what a neighborhood café should be: quaint, inviting, and full of charm. Think exposed brick, vintage signs, chalkboard menus, and fresh flowers on the tables. Whether you're sitting inside the snug dining room or enjoying your meal out front on a sunny day, the vibe is laid-back and genuine. It's the kind of place where you don't feel rushed--you're encouraged to slow down and savor the experience. Now onto the food--the real star of the show. The menu at The Buttered Biscuit takes classic comfort food and elevates it just enough to make every dish feel special, without being overly complicated or pretentious. As you'd expect, the biscuits are next-level. Flaky, buttery, and perfectly golden on the outside with that melt-in-your-mouth softness on the inside--they're everything a biscuit should be. Whether you get them plain, with gravy, or as part of a sandwich, they never disappoint. One of my go-to orders is the Biscuits & Gravy, which is rich and flavorful without being too heavy. The sausage gravy is well-seasoned, not overly salty, and the portion is generous without being overwhelming. Their breakfast sandwich options are also top-notch, especially when served on a biscuit with fluffy scrambled eggs, cheese, and crispy bacon or sausage. But The Buttered Biscuit doesn't just shine with the basics. Their specials often include thoughtful, seasonal items like lemon-ricotta pancakes, blueberry stuffed French toast, or an avocado toast with a unique twist--each made with care and bursting with flavor. The sweet side of the menu is just as strong as the savory. The pancakes are light and airy, the French toast is perfectly caramelized, and everything feels homemade in the best possible way. I also have to mention the coffee--strong, smooth, and served with real cream if you want it. You can tell they put effort into even the little things, like offering different coffee options and refilling your cup with a smile. Their fresh-squeezed juice and seasonal beverages (like hot apple cider or flavored lemonades) are another nice touch. The service at The Buttered Biscuit is consistently warm and attentive. Even when the place is packed on weekends--and it often is--the staff manages to stay friendly, efficient, and upbeat. They treat regulars like family and newcomers like old friends. You never feel like you're being hurried along or overlooked, which makes all the difference. Yes, there's usually a wait on weekend mornings, especially during the summer. But honestly? It's worth it. Grab a coffee, take a walk down to the beach a few blocks away, and by the time you come back, your table will likely be ready. They do their best to accommodate everyone without compromising the quality of the experience inside. If I had to summarize why I love The Buttered Biscuit so much, it's because it delivers comfort food with heart. Everything they do feels intentional--from the quality of the ingredients to the kindness of the staff. It's not trying to be trendy or over-the-top--it's just trying to do what it does really well. And it succeeds. Whether you're a local or visiting the Shore, The Buttered Biscuit is a must-visit spot. It's the kind of place that becomes part of your routine, part of your memories, and part of what makes Bradley Beach such a special little town. It's breakfast, brunch, and comfort on a plate--and I can't recommend it enough. read more
