ButterUpCakes cafe

Really surprised this spot was rated so highly. My first visit was wildly disappointing. I ordered a black coffee that was weak and lukewarm. To eat, I ordered a Breakfast Bowl, which promised potato, veg, eggs and meat. I was surprised they offered DF cheese, which was great. But, the bowl itself was mostly potatoes, undercooked veg and cheese that hadn’t melted yet. I couldn’t find the eggs.

Decided to give this spot another go as there’s not much else for GF options in town (even at the co-op). Was pretty surprised they were “already out” of GF bagels as they opened. Got a bacon, egg and DF cheese on an English Muffin that tasted stale and again with unmelted cheese.

Staff was nice enough and I’m over masking, but if you’re going to mask, might as well wear it correctly over your nose?

Kind of seems this spot only stays open because it’s the only spot offering GF. It’s not staying open because it’s good. Expensive for what it is.

Its so nice to be able to go to a place and not have to worry at all about what i can have on the menu. Always feel welcome and everything is delicious!

This bakery is amazing. I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease 4 years ago and I have tried many gluten free bakeries. This one is by far, the best of all that I've tried. It's a family owned bakery, that is dedicated to gluten free. It's so nice to have a place to go that I can satisfy my sweet tooth, and not have to worry about being sick later. They have amazing variety, and the prices are great. They'll also take requests if you let them know ahead of time. The only negative thing I have to say about them isn't really negative at all, and speaks to their quality.... Go as early as you can, they might sell out!

Amazing staff! The owners are funny and attentive, and the food is AMAZING! Gluten free beer and a great selection of cider. A must visit for GF!!

Thank you for taking the time to explain all the cider/beet selection. The care of those with allergies is heartwarming. It was so comforting going into a dedicated GF place, knowing I could eat everything.

I couldn't let this pass based on the last 2 reviews. It is *NOT* overpriced for a dedicated gluten free facility AND it is not "snooty" to maintain a safe allergen free environment in your shop! How clueless to walk in to an allergy sensitive establishment with outside food!!! I am going to assume this is just lack of knowledge and ignorance on the previous 2 reviewers. The food is great and it is a huge relief to know my daughter can eat there safely. Thank you.

If you’re celiac, you must stop here. We came for breakfast and enjoyed the stuffed French toast with lemon, and blueberry drizzle, as well as the breakfast sandwich. Our friend had the biscuits and gravy which she hasn’t had in four years. She was in heaven! We took some baked goods to go. Be careful. They sell out early, so don’t show up at noon and hope to access a full menu. Can’t wait to sample our donut. The savoury scones were gobbled up at lunchtime to rave reviews!

The coffee was so bad, basically hot water. When I complained and asked for it to be replaced, they refused in a condescending way. The doughnuts were way too sweet, the scones like glue. A very disappointing experience. Never going back again.

Literally the best sausage egg and cheese on a biscuit that I’ve had in a long long time. And a phenomenal donut as well. And everything’s gluten-free(!) which is not a requirement for me, but so damn good either way! On top of that, attentive, lovely, hilarious folks who own and work there. Do not miss!

Made a surprise 7 am stop here while driving through Maine and it was the highlight of the drive. This place is well worth it and their pastries are incredible whether you are gluten free or not. They change the pastries daily, so my main advice is to order several. This family-run operation is definitely worth a stop, and they are super friendly.

Have been internet drooling over this place for a while & finally got the chance to pickup multiple things off the menu. Thoroughly impressed with the quality, texture, taste & creativity of all the things we ordered. The turkey burger has truly fantastic flavor. Very impressed & will definitely be visiting again.
