This place!!! The food is outstanding. (Eggs benedict was perfect, sausage egg and cheese on french bread was delicious, the pancake was insanely good, homefries were the best we've had on Cape. Baked goods were fresh and amazing and worthy of a review all on their own.) The staff are all genuinely so kind, it felt like we were old friends catching up, like they welcomed us into their home. Conversation overheard with nearby tables confirms the kindness extends to everyone. The space is bright and cheery and CLEAN, the atmosphere and music is fun, the vibe is generous and welcoming and hip and inclusive, and we can't wait to come back.

DISCLAIMER: I WORK AT THE BUTTERCUP CAFÉ AS A WAITER, however I came in on my day off to have breakfast, and afterwards I decided I wanted to leave my honest review. So here we go.... Upon walking into the restaurant on a semi-busy Monday morning I told my coworkers to treat me like any old customer. I sat at the bar, and quickly was greeted by Samir, who was working front counter and host for the day. Samir reminds me of a hotel concierge from another century. His pleasant demeanor, thoughtful use of language, clean cut aesthetic, and professionalism started my experience on a high note. He quickly made me feel comfortable, grabbed me a coffee and menu, and was receptive and cordial when I corrected him on a small portion of the procedure. Samir is newer at the restaurant than I am and in general is just a great person to have on your team. Seeing him from the perspective of a customer, rather than his co-worker, still it is crystal clear that he is eager to improve, learn more each day, and provide the best dining experience for each customer that he possibly can. Samir is a 5-Star person. After being seated and given my coffee I was given 3-4 minutes to look at the menu, and as soon as I had the thought "okay I'm ready to order", in popped Mellissa, the owner of the Buttercup Café. I have nothing but great things to say about Mellisa. Speaking frankly as an employee of hers, I specifically took this job because I believed in her: as a business owner, as a manager, a multifaceted human with a life outside of her business, and I knew pretty quickly we'd soon become friends if I were to work for her. Anyways she took my order in a kind and friendly manner, and the food came out exactly as I ordered it. How else does one judge the work of a waitress?? (technically she is the owner, but she literally does every position at her restaurant when necessitated). 5 stars. In the kitchen today was Howard, who is as loud and full of character as he is a great line cook. I ordered the "Go to Breakfast" and the eggs were cooked and cheesed to my liking, the sausage patty was evenly charred, the gluten free toast was delicious (especially when combined with the aforementioned sides), and I elected to skip the home fries solely because my appetite didn't require any more food than received. The portions, especially scrambled eggs, are big here. It is important to also note that Howard was being assisted by Darlene, a new line cook at the Buttercup, today. I don't know her involvement in my meal, but if she was involved it's clear to me she has a future working as a cook here or in any restaurant. 5 stars. The food is reasonably priced for the portions, and the quality is great. This is not a greasy spoon restaurant, it is a tasteful, and thoughtful menu designed to provide a great meal to anyone who walks through the door. If I had to make one gripe, it's only that juices are a bit expensive for not having a free refill. I think as a waiter that's one of the reasons we serve so much water :) With love and respect for my friends at the Buttercup Café Zack

Whenever I'm on Cape Cod I stop here for something to eat delicious food good prices and very nice waitresses
I stopped here for breakfast and had a great one. Food and service were wonderful. I had heard many local people speak of The Buttercup as just The Buttercup. Mistakenly in my recent review of it I called it a diner. Whatever you want to call it it certainly is worth a stop if your looking for a good breakfast and friendly people. I haven't tried their lunch yet. If I want to encourage my wife to join me I'd better say, how about The Buttercup Cafe? I liked it.

Great breakfast spot in Cape Cod. We always think there's a bee in their restaurant name. Bee's are everywhere in their decor. Bee that as it may their breakfast selection is great & coffees should not be passed up. Friendly wait staff, consistent quality, good prices, equals repeat

On January 1st discovered this quiet little spot open.Stopped in for a cup of coffee and delicious cinnamon bun not hidden in sugar frosting, and loaded with cinnamon. Noticed they have the type of smoothie you can meal replace with so I'll be back to try. A slight wait as there were lots of orders being picked up.
