Butter it Up

How did I not try this place sooner? First of all I thought the Butter it Up thing was just a coffee shop. I was very wrong. I went with family for breakfast and was blown away. I ordered the Carnitas breakfast and it was one of the tastiest and original breakfast dishes I have ever had. My sister ordered a veggie omelette with sweet potato. She said it was amazing and it looked like it. Now that I know where and what this place is I will be a regular. The whole place has a Brooklyn hipster vibe with cool décor and feel to it. It certainly doesn’t feel or taste like our normal fare. Excited to learn they are open for lunch and dinner as well.

I just moved to WV from California & I’ve been trying to find little nice breakfast/​café place and I’m so glad I found this place it’s literally right by my house I love the staff they are super welcoming & friendly :) I really can’t wait to come here more often and basically try the entire menu lol

First off the staff was super nice and enjoyable to talk to. The food was great and full of flavor.

Cozy little spot — address makes it hard for GPS to find (it’s across Midland Trail, not on Putnam Ave). Food was very tasty! Try the carnitas!!! Seriously tender.
If you eat in, grab a table, then walk up to the counter to order. Breakfast is only until 11, then it’s the lunch menu. I got the carnitas platter with steamed greens and potato wedges. The greens — Swiss chard — were decent, though could have used a bit of seasoning. The potatoes were very tasty. And I can’t rave about the carnitas enough! My mom got a beef stew which was excellent — not very soupy; just the right amount of broth! Dad got the pot roast, and it was perfect — the big danger with pot roast is it being too salty, and this was just right.
There is limited seating, and it is a bit hard to find. The food probably won’t be for every taste — it’s a little trendy for the area. Some of the seats looked pretty uncomfortable as well (rope chairs were a bit weird…) but overall, this is a nice little spot. Come in with a slightly adventurous appetite, and I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.

Amazing service and amazing food. I will most certainly frequent this establishment. The breakfast is simply amazing, I highly recommend the sweet potato pulled pork pancakes, or an omelet with everything in it. I’m not much of a coffee person but I gotta say if anyplace can convert me it will totally be this place.

Best little Breakfast/​lunch rest. i have been to in awhile. A must try. quality food at a reasonably price. I usually do not give 5 star ratings, but this is my favorite spot. Bacon is the best I have ever tried. thick cut and cured on site at the rest. fresh home-​made sausage. Fresh eggs. you cannot go wrong if you like breakfast. I will try lunch next time. this is a BINGO MUST GO!!!
