Buttermilk Cafe - Cobourg, Ontario

Was at the Buttermilk Cafe for breakfast a few days ago. The restaurant may be showing its age in terms of decor, furniture and atmosphere, but that does not stop people from lining up for their delicious food. We had blueberry pancakes and a smoked meat hash topped with a fried egg, ... both of which were delicious Good value too for the amount of food. Highly recommended. Read more

i absolutely love it here. the pancakes are unlike any other anywhere else, and the bacon is one of the best bacon i’ve ever had at a breakfast place. the atmosphere is amazing both inside and out on the patio, and it’s always somewhat busy which makes sense, because it’s ... such a great place!!! i love coming here.

Food - 5/5 (Only tried Carrot Cake) Service - 1/5 Ambiance - 5/5 **UPDATE** Service - 1/5 Went there again for the carrot cakes. The server gave us 3 glasses of water with ice, we asked her to get 2 glasses without ice and her reaction was not something you'd usually see. After that we ... asked them to pack us a takeout for 6 cakes, and they refused saying they had a group coming in later. They only gave us 3 instead of 6. She packed all 3 of them in the same box, and I asked her to get separate boxes, and she again said that you have to tell all that before packing and it was just absurd. Because we did mention to get it packed separately. It was a really unpleasant experience, if you have something which sells good, don't be rude. May not come here again, at least for dining in. *OLD* Ordered Carrot Cake, and have been visiting this place multiple times just for the cake. It's worth a visit if in town. The carrot cake is just amazing here. Read more

First time visited this place, food was amazing and a quick service even during the rush lunch hours. We tried chicken pazano flatbread (the one in the picture) and chicken walnut quesdilla. Portion was pretty good, flatbread on the side was seriously fresh. Ended with a lemon pie which was ... perfect with the right amount of tangy and sweet flavor. Very reasonably priced compared to other places. Will be coming back for sure. Read more

Great little cozy spot for breakfast. We stopped here on our way to Montreal. Anytime were on vacation we always make a point to stop by the independent restaurants and this one didn't disappoint. Food was great, service was friendly and I am looking forward to the Triple R pudding ... we got to go! Big breakfast and eggs Benedict was our order. I love how the big breakfast comes with double meat portions 😁 and the blueberry pancake was a perfect finish. We arrived 20 minutes after opening and they were already somewhat busy with a few tables already reserved. If you want a spot between 9 and 11, you might want to make a reservation as around 10 I saw a small lineup. Read more
