LOVE this place like no other! Best biscuit and best chai in the entire Twin Cities metro area!
Butter Bakery Cafe
612-521-7401
The brunch at Butter Cafe has been a tightly guarded secret whispered amongst neighborhood residents and commuters on their way to work in the morning. Unlike most coffee shops, Butter has a full menu that includes sandwiches, soups, omelettes and pancakes made to order. They are also especially known for their biscuits and a few unusual items like the beet burger. Butter has sidewalk seating available, which tends to fill up fast in the mornings.

Butter serves a very good selection of Fairtrade coffees, fabulous pastries, and other tasty menu items. Dan and his staff are always friendly and helpful...AND the business strives to be "green" in all ways. What more could a neighborhood want!!

This place is a gem. I will patronize Butter as long as they continue to provide fabulous coffee and pastries (I won't buy a scone anywhere else!), support local farmers and sustainable practices, and enhance the sense of community in southwest Minneapolis. The staff is friendly and the experience is always enjoyable. Kudos!
