“ Great ambiance, fast wifi, and delicious food. Honestly went to get some studying done and it was the perfect quiet place closer to noon. ”
“ Great pastries and coffee! Dumbo location is nice. Near the water for a nice walk afterwards. ”
“ When you go into a coffee shop for a quick drink and have a DELICIOUS squash salad on watercress you cannot keep it to yourself. OMG! SO GOOD! Definitely going back next time I'm in NYC. ”
“ I stopped into Butler when I was in Dumbo a few weeks back for a QSR breakfast, and it was a great experience! Not too busy, but never not busy, once ordered food came quickly, and the view of the Bridge is excellent, and a lovely way to start a morning if you want to sit quickly. Prices are super fair as well! Cozy inside, and kind Brooklynite staff. I ordered the breakfast sandwich, which I totally recommend! it's made with truffle aioli on a scallion brioche and completed with a sunny-side egg, bacon, and cheddar. The truffle aioli plays off of the other ingredients quite effectively. On the side, I ordered the corn muffin and also had a taste of the sticky date muffin. Both of these were pretty good, though a bit more moisture in the muffin would've been preferred for my palette. Cute spot to pop into - recommend for sure! ”
“ Coffee was worth the wait. If you are trying to do tourist things come here very early order a coffee to go and take pictures here. The ice coffee hits the spot before work always, or if you have time to work from home and want a good place to enjoy an espresso with something light on the side this place is worth it. ”
“ First time visiting Dumbo and stumbled upon this cute shop. Really like how they make their own vanilla syrup here! It wasn't too sweet and definitely gave me a pick-me up. Came in around 4pm and was pretty empty and service was quick. Loved all the natural light and seating inside. ”
“ Cute bakery vibes and I liked their pastry and lunch options! The location is nice, so there's a lot of sunlight and view of Brooklyn bridge. Decent amount of seating, but will probably have to wait or grab n go during the weekends. Good food spot around dumbo! ”
“ If I am in need of a quick breakfast or brunch bite, and I'm by Brooklyn Bridge Park, this is definitely the place to stop. The staff here is lovely - especially the cooks! I had been visiting my doctor in the area this past week, and it was always early mornings. I would pop in here right after, and they consistently made me a delicious meal. I HIGHLY recommend: the açaí berry bowl and the granola parfait. They put a lot of care into the presentation of their food, which I truly appreciate. Additionally, I enjoy sitting outside. They have a lovely outdoor area in the Summer time, with just a few chairs. I enjoy sitting out there just to people watch. Plus you have a nice view of the bridge right behind you. Inside, they have a free water station. The seating is quite comfy and they even have a few outlets for you to go in there and use your laptop. All in all, lovely little place. ”
“ I wanted something other than coffee so matcha latte is was. For some reason I kept seeing the sign thinking it said butter on it and thought to myself, what a funny name for a restaurant/cafe. The matcha latte here is great. Enough sweetness and tasted of matcha, not just all milk. ”
