Crema's Take

Butternut Bakehouse is a warm, welcoming spot where the real stars are the house-made pastries and baked goods—think pillowy egg sandwiches, exceptional egg tarts, and blueberry cake that'll make you forget to take pictures. The staff here genuinely cares about every customer, creating a genuinely kind atmosphere that keeps people coming back, though the coffee itself is solid if not extraordinary. It's the kind of place where thoughtful baking, attentive service, and a comfortable space to linger make for a memorable breakfast or brunch experience.

What to expect

Strong matcha and tea selection. Slow-sit spot. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu.

Absolutely loved my recent visit to Butternut Bakehouse! This place is a total gem, and I just have to share how awesome it was. First off, the blueberry cake there is out of this world. Seriously, it's like nothing I've ever tasted before. The cake was super moist, and the…
