The Buttered Tin

Hey Travoodies Let me say the say the atmosphere definitely local, friendly and yum. I just hate I couldn't sit to enjoy it. If you didn't see the reel, broken glass and my finger had a tussle. This neighborhood restaurant and bakery bustled with smiling faces from staff to patrons. What I ordered: The Biscuit Sammie! A cheddar buttermilk thyme biscuits with a maple fennel sausage layered with delicious was everything. My only disappointment was that with the situation occurring I was not able to eat it hot. I believe it would have been chefs kiss. So I have to do a redo... I also ordered a cinnamon roll, which I later enjoyed. It was a lot bread but yummy all the same. I would share it next time because it was alot for me! Overall it is a place I want to try again.

I've eaten here several times and it's one of the places I know consistently has amazing tasting food. I've tried almost all the breakfast items and there isn't a bad thing on the menu, but the biscuits and gravy are the thing of dreams. The gravy is the perfect amount of meat to sauce ratio with layered flavors. We like the counter service. It's close to the farmer's market so it's fun to grab a bite then shop the local products. Staff is helpful and knowledgeable about the menu. Portions are sizable and priced well. They have expanded their seating a lot, but on weekends it's still very busy. The only downside to this location is the lack of parking. It's mostly metered on street parking.

Super friendly staff, and a cosy location for a coffee meeting downtown Saint Paul. Many tempting bakery items and full menu for breakfast & lunch. Self serve water and coffee refills! Can't miss with this place.

I think this is the perfect lunch spot in downtown St. Paul. The baked goods are excellent, and it just has an amazing selection of soups, salads, and egg dishes that look simple but are really next level. I just love eating at this place. I would definitely recommend going on a weekday rather than weekend because it tends to get crowded, especially during Farmers market season. But if you're near downtown St. Paul and hankering for breakfast or lunch, stop here first.

I got a Walleye Benedict with poached eggs, arugula, salad, a lemon hollandaise sauce and potatoes. I didn't know there wasn't any carbs and the walleye was essentially the bread of the Benedict but I didn't mind because it was very meaty. It was well seasoned and I loved eating it with the arugula and pickled peppers. Eggs were perfectly cooked but the potatoes were overcooked and soggy with a little too much oil. Flavor was good though and so were the crispy edges. Overall a solid and unique dish.

Great spot in down town St. Paul for breakfast. They have a variety of baked goods or you can order off the made to order menu. Small spot but always busy and not surprised because the food is delicious! Stop in for a coffee and biscuit or the banana French toast!

It reminded us of cafeteria style eating. The parking is off street in downtown St. Paul. We happened to find rock star parking across the street by the Gopher bar. But you go in, grab a menu and get in line. Place your order, pay and find a seat. It's not a super big place, so it was like find a seat, or get in line...You see what we ordered and the food was good. Not really loud in there. Service was good. There was a heart in top of my Mocha. Eggs tasted a little different than what I'm used to. They were organic and tasted really clean and good once I got past the taste. Everyone enjoyed their food and there was extra to take home. Bread was think and buttery. You do need to put salt and pepper if you want on your food. They don't do that.

This is such a cute breakfast/ brunch spot. Great location on the corner and the vibe and atmosphere inside is so fun. You go up to the register to order your meal and then wait for it to be called out so you can go and grab it. They have lots of dining/ seating space. I got a club sandwich it was amazing I also tried the chicken tortilla soup which is also very great. For dessert I finished off one of the cinnamon rolls, they're to die for a must have. I would highly recommend this place! P.s. try the lavender lemonade you won't regret !

This is my go to everytime I stop the twin cities. It's always a good fast service and good food to have while you're catching up with friends and family. They have free water served and free coffee refill.

The food is outstanding. The service is efficient and accurate. The ambiance is comfortable. A great place to have a tasty meal before or after visiting the Farmer's Market on the weekend.
