We had a really good experience. It's a very traditional all-day breakfast spot with classic decor, which gives it a cozy local feel. We ordered the Super Breakfast and the Northern Grill. The service was very friendly, and I really liked the French toast -- super fragrant and tasty. The bacon was also really good. We went around noon on a Saturday and it wasn't too busy, and it seemed like a lot of locals come here. read more

The Buttery - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Newmarket, Ontario

We stopped by on a Saturday morning and picked this place on a whim, and it turned out to be a great choice. The restaurant has a cozy, old-school traditional feel, which we really liked. The breakfast was exactly the kind of classic breakfast we were hoping for -- bacon, toast, sausage, eggs, and coffee, all simple and satisfying. It was not too busy around midday, so the whole meal felt very relaxed. The service was also very friendly, and that made the experience even better. We really enjoyed our meal and would gladly come back again. read more

Great service good food nice environment very clean, nice staff very inviting environment

The Buttery is the restaurant located in the lobby of the Best Western Voyageur hotel. The owners are Greek and super friendly. They also do a killer Mousaka. It's the best Mousaka I've had since Greece and I've tried quite a bit in the GTA since then. The Mousaka comes with a large side of Greek Salad for $15.99. It was so delicious that I had it three days in a row! It was so soft and warm and delicious - the perfect comfort food. The Greek Salad was also very fresh and would be great if you're feeling for something lighter. The meal sized Greek Salad is $11 and you can add $8 for Grilled Chicken or other meats. Their breakfast menu is pretty standard and is good as well. They offer a brunch buffet on Sundays for about $22. It's a little pricey so I didn't try it (I don't eat a lot in the mornings) but there was so much variety and it looked amazing. I believe that normally if they have the buffet going on, that's all that they offer. However, since we were a group and we all wanted the Mousaka, they were able to make an exception for us (so nice of them!) The French Onion Soup is always on the menu but they also have the soup of the day which changes daily (duh). Since I wanted something lighter, they offered to make the French Onion Soup for me without the cheese. Of course it would've tasted 100 times better with the cheese, but it was good enough to warm me up :). I'd also recommend the Roasted Cauliflower soup (soo good and creamy) if they have it. They told me that it was the first time they were doing it the day I had it. If you're looking for some caffeine, try their cappuccino. It's delicious and creamy; I'd recommend this over the coffee in the hotel. If you're staying in the hotel, I would recommend trying The Buttery vs. searching for another restaurant in the area. If you're in the area looking for a new restaurant to try, definitely give it a try! read more

We went for breakfast. Great food, reasonable prices and wonderful staff. Will definitely be back! Overall nice experience-

They've had the same owner since it opened, their staff is incredibly warm and welcoming. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone looking to support local and wants a delicious meal that feels homemade by your grandma but elevated. read more

I only found out about this restaurant 2023 while looking for "the best restaurant in New Market " and it made me curious way is it on the top of the list. Since brunch is my favourite meal of the day, my "appetite" to try this new place was even greater. So, I went expecting a good meal and service but what I didn't expect was such warmth and kindness from the ALL staff there. I went with my mother a few times, who doesn't speak English at all yet she felt she had such a connection with the staff who went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and happy with the meal and the experience. Their attentiveness, charm, and genuine care for their guests made us feel like royalty. They had an incredible ability to anticipate our needs, making sure that our cups were never empty and that we were completely satisfied with every aspect of our meal. I will certainly invite more friends there and I will also bring my husband as soon as he returns from oversees! Thank you! Cristina read more

Bang for the buck! Love this old school humble and tasty resto. Went there for breakfast and always amaze. Service is top notch. Ambience is old school grams house! read more

Excellent food and the staff are so friendly. Reasonable prices. Great spot for breakfast or lunch

Very friendly staff, delicious and affordable breakfast. With coffee and juice ! Loved seeing fresh cut flowers on the tables.

GREAT BREAKFAST FOR A GREAT PRICE! Stayed at the Best Western so decided to check it out. I believe I ordered the Super Breakfast. Very big portion and very reasonably priced. Everything was delicious! Great coffee too! If your staying nearby, highly recommend! read more

I hold the Buttery real close and dearly to my heart. I adore this place immensely; from the food to the service and the price. Two big thumbs up. This resto holds my one true love, the spicy caesar salad, house made of course. Each night they have a special board which features a few items at a reasonable price. I've had many items including the beef medallions, the lobster tails, the rainbow trout - all were excellent. If you're lucky enough, you'll be served by a man who is the reason I go. I wish I had caught his name but each time I forget. Not because I can't be bothered by because I am so distracted with his kindness and his wunderbar comments. I know it's German but it gets me every time. If you're in Newmarket looking for a nice restaurant that's different from your usual Keg experience, come here. It's WUNDERBAR! read more

Came here for breakfast on a Saturday morning. The restaurant was quite busy. We got seated promptly. Our waiter was quick to check up on us for any hot or cold drinks and our orders. I had the Eggs Benedict ($11 + tax) which came with peameal bacon and home fries. The food was excellent. The hollandaise had the perfect consistency. It was rich and creamy. My friends ordered the more traditional breakfast options and I have to admit that it was really good value for money. Not only are the portions big but the quality is great. The service was impeccable. In fact our waiter was quite funny. It was a nice to have such a wonderful meal and service together. I will definitely come back here for their other brunch options. read more

I understand this is a wonderful place if you know the password to good service. If you don't, then prepare to wait for poor service and lacklustre food. I was at the front of the line, waiting for someone to notice me when the maître d' rushed up and greeted the people behind me and ushered them into the restaurant. I was outright ignored and didn't even get a glance before he left me standing there, wondering if I have to know the secret handshake to get a seat. Eventually I was noticed and given a seat, and it was a real trip down memory lane because it was the same decor I remember from when I last visited in the 90s. I got to enjoy it for a long time, too, because the waitstaff couldn't be bothered to take my order. Eventually I did get some food a while later, but it wasn't worth the wait or my time. Honestly, I wish I'd never walked in the door. I will add that my senior dad will bring his senior friends here, and they LOOOOOOVE it because they get great service and enjoy the food. I don't know why my service was so poor, while everyone else seems to have a great time. read more

Very good place! Very cozy, good food and excellent service! Brunch is definitely recommended!

My favourite restaurant in Newmarket for years. Sunday brunch is always a hit with the kids, and their holiday menus are special every year. read more

The Buttery - a plate of bread and a bowl of soup - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Newmarket, Ontario

Had a really nice breakfast here. The service was just wonderful, very fast and friendly. Food was fresh and tasty. I liked that in the morning time you are not forced to get breakfast items only and if you want a burger, you can get one. Coffee tasted good and was bottomless. We enjoyed our visit here and will be returning in the future. The restaurant and bathrooms are clean read more

Every so often I just need a nice Eggs Benedict. Or a nice place to meet up for breakfast. Or a decadent desert. Or great service. Or the world need more restaurants like the Buttery. Located in the Best Western hotel across from Upper Canada Mall in Newmarket, you can expect a consistent performance at this full service restaurant and its comfortable lounge. Hotel restaurants can be a crap shoot, but this place has been there for decades, likely managed by the same owners for the whole time. The meals are always nicely done, the surroundings are comfortable, and the treatment is always homey. read more

The restaurant is not recommended at all. If I could give minus star I would give! I had a chicken parmigiana the meat were smelly like a kind of a meat that had been kept out of fridge for longtime and had been ruined! I was about to threw up after taking the first bite. When I told my server, she frowned like someone crazy talking! She left without apologizing! Came back and said it is OK you don't need to pay for this. This is not a kind of response you expect from a server and a restaurant! The manager didn't show up. Feedback was given to the front reception however they also didn't receive feedback properly! Very rude personnel! Bot recommending at all! read more

I had breakfast there with a couple of friends during Easter and even though service was awesome and friendly, my pancakes tasted like they were too much pre-made. The croissant was ok, but not as flaky as I would expect. Portions are on the bigger side, so it's filling enough for a good Sunday brunch. I would return there to taste the other options they offer for breakfast. read more

This restaurant is attached to the Best Western Hotel, so it has a bit of a hotel restaurant theme. The decor feels pretty formal and classy, which made both of us a little bit uncomfortable at first, in our jeans and casual wear. The staff didn't care, and everyone else was in varying states of classiness, dress wise, so we were quickly made to feel comfortable. We had really just wanted a standard breakfast/brunch, but on Sundays they only serve a buffet. We decided that was cool, and went with it. They had eggs benedict, which I'd never had from a buffet before. They were well done, on the runny side, which is the way I like them. They also had dollar pancakes, sausage, bacon, salmon, even carved beef. They could have a tiny bit more fruit -- there were really only melon and grapes. They also had a very nice selection of desserts, including a delicious pumpkin pie. They also have great coffee, it was nice and strong and fresh tasting. If you're in the area and looking for a good breakfast buffet, this is a great place to go! read more

Staff friendly and welcoming. Greek salad was yummy - served over lettuce, fyi. I LOVE liver and onions and was not disapointed. Fresh, crusty sesame bread on table was also a treat. Booths for 2 along wall are very comfortable and just private enough fir someone on their own not to feel conspicuous. read more

The Buttery - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Newmarket, Ontario

I have been to the Buttery a few times now and I must say the service has been good and the food great. It doesn't seem like a great place from the outside but once you go in it goes back into a lovely dining room. My favourite part is every time I have been there I was able to have dinner conversation with my fellow diners. The only down side I would say is the parking. The lot is small and very tight. read more

Been coming to the buttery for years. My suggestion is going early for the buffet, for the freshest food, either breakfast or brunch. Service is excellent. I haven't visited in about two years, looking forward to a Sunday brunch one day soon.. my favourite memory? Pre-cut lemon meringue pie slices at sunday brunch! read more

I have to say, I came here because of the stars and man was I disappointed. I just paid double the price for half the food. I paid $10 for a tiny sandwich and had to pay for my side. I have no issue with paying for sides but if I'm paying double what I would normally pay for a sandwich I'd expect at least a decent sized portion. Not to mention the teaspoon I ate my soup with to give you an idea of the size of the soup bowl. Wish I could have said something better and I'm sure there are better/bigger dishes here but I'll probably never find out. read more

Came here on Thursday morning at 9:30am and the place was pretty empty. Decor was dated, but nonetheless formal and yet cozy and welcoming. Servers were pleasant. Nice quiet place with delicous food and very reasonable prices. Will recommend! read more

Wonderful service. Quite pricey. The food was a bit cold. Their dish of the day didn't seem very fresh.

My first visit was on a Saturday morning. I walked in and thought OMG this is not a place I wanna eat in. In a word, FORMAL. I thought this a formal dining establishment. I WAS WRONG. The Buttery is a casual restaurant but definitely gives you a formal dining room type of service. The staff were very courteous and efficient. The room was comfortable and relaxing. I found the coffee to be very good. I had my benchmark meal to rate a breakfast which was bacon and eggs with home-fries and toast. Everything was excellent with a special thumbs up for the home-fries. The toast also deserves a thumbs up. My wife had an omelette which was cooked perfectly, light and fluffy. If I could find a complaint it would the portion size. They were not small but the food is so good there wasn't enough of it. All in all I'm glad I didn't pass by and not give this place a try. read more

Came here from many good referrals and felt let down. Service was good but the food was average and the decor was something out of the early 90's. The four of us all had different things on the menu, and although it was good, it was just ok. Wouldn't rush back. read more

It is a great local place. It tends to cater to an older crowd. The food is freshly made in house and is a family run business. It a great place to go for breakfast on a Sunday morning. read more

Woops, sorry but some of the food is boxed. Apple pie is from Costco. Meals are tasty and well presented. Staff is excellent. You'll be fine here but it's a very average restaurant. read more

Tried to have brunch here and it was... unpleasant. French toast smelled a bit off and was covered in enough powdered sugar to hide something; that thing I suspect was the fact that it was day-old. Everything else seemed like it either came out of a microwave or started life as a powder. Can't say I'd go back - but maybe for a traveler it has a different appeal. read more

Seriously ! Who is writing these reviews ? I have been looking for a GOOD SUNDAY brunch place for a few years now. The ones I knew in Toronto are closed. I no of none in South Simone. If you go to the Falls do the Sheraton or the Hilton THAT IS BRUNCH ! I have never written a review before and could not be bothered. I was looking for a brunch place after moving to Bradford and looking online i came upon the buttery. I am STILL trying to find a decent brunch place in South Simcoe. This Buttery is nothing but a JOKE ! Either the people writing are family members or do NOT know what food is. Because of the reviews on here I went in on a Sunday with my wife for Brunch. Waited a couple of minutes to be served and walked to the buffet table. We almost fell down laughing there is at the MOST half a dozen items to chose from. They do not let you pick your own food from the limited selection . We felt like we were standing in a food bank with our plates out almost begging for the chef to put food on the plate. We felt embarrassed to ask for an extra piece of sausage or bacon. The food was HORRIBLE ! How can anyone say this place is good is WAY beyond me and has no CLUE what good food is. When we got the bill my wife and I looked at each other and .................... What did we eat. We nibbled on a few things, left hungry and a heavy bill for nothing. DISGUSTING DISGUSTING DISGUSTING. You have been warned. On a side not my wife and i are STILL looking for a place that serves GOOD Sunday Brunch :( read more

We are not really old but we like to have dinner here. I can't care less about outdated decor . I like it clean, tasty and quick. The soups are usually very good, the ribs are great and Ceasar salad is very delicious. And if you are served by Jesse ,your evening just got better. The deserts are not baked in the restaurant but..so what? The caramel crunch is fresher than in Second Cup, that's for sure. The owners are very professional and polite. The kids love to eat here as well. We would come more often but our dinner for 3 usually runs over $120 so we'll just keep popping in couple times a month or so. Please, keep that cook happy, otherwise we won't have any place to go out. read more

Made our biweekly trip to visit the Newmarket Costco for gas and found the Buttery through an online search for places to eat breakfast. My husband and I were skeptical at first given the restuarant's location inside a hotel (Best Western), but we were pleasantly surprised. The set breakfast options were all under $10 and included coffee/tea and juice plus your standard fare options for eggs, bacon, or ham or sausage and either toast or home fries and tomato. There was also set breakfasts with pancakes or French toast. Plenty of other options on the menu as well like steak and eggs.. Coffee was bottomless and although the glass of juice was small - with everything else the size of the meal was just right for both of us. Service was good and they appeared to have a good mix of hotel and walk in customers. Would definitely visit again. read more

My friend suggested we try out this restaurant and I'm glad we did. I ordered the steak which came with onion rings and vegetables. The steak was a perfect medium rare. The onion rings were perfect and i saved that for last. Unfortunately i was only given 3 rings. The vegetables were seasoned well and were tasty. The service was friendly and attentive. It wasn't busy at all when we went in, around 3-30pm. The washrooms are clean which is a huge plus for me. Will visit again and recommend. read more

Hands down best restaurant in Newmarket. I've been going here since I was a kid, probably close to 30 years. The food is amazing, especially the Caesar salad. We've boycotted chain restaurants because I've worked in quite a few on Yonge st and trust me...they're nasty. All their items are fresh...which you do not get at chain restaurants. The people cooking are actual chefs and not 17 year old, hungover kids who could care less about food quality or cleanliness. I recommend this place to everyone, except restaurant snobs who judge a place on its decor and not its food. Those people suck. The buttery has a great breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner menu. Highly recommend read more

1st Time here, also being Valentine's Day dinner. I was real happy with it being clean everywhere, got a nice booth for 2 not squashed in. The service was very timely, not bothered every time I had a mouthful. I had 2- 4 oz. filet mignon & Lobster tail, Cesar salad that was cut to a size that you could pick up with your fork & not all over your face. My wife had 11 oz. Prime Rib, both meals were cooked to what we ordered. Dessert looked fresh & tasted perfect. Thanx for a Nice Dinner & Time. read more

I shuttered when I saw the name. Vegan business traveling is challenging, especially when you have to get up super early every morning and the only quick breakfast option is The Buttery. I had vouchers for pre-fixe continental meals none of which were veg friendly. Luckily, the restaurant honored the vouchers while allowing me to build my own vegan-friendly breakfast: Home fries, fresh fruit, toast with jam and a bottomless cup of black coffee. Service is curt and professional--the waitress quickly attending business travelers while also lingering over long time regulars. read more
