I recently placed an order from Butler, and I was thoroughly impressed with the quality of both the food and the coffee. Every item I tried was outstanding, showcasing a high level of craftsmanship and attention to detail. The coffee latte was exceptional—rich, smooth, and perfectly balanced. The flavor profile was well-rounded, and each sip was as satisfying as the last. It’s clear that great care goes into crafting their coffee. The breakfast empanada with bacon, egg, and cheese was a standout. The empanada was perfectly crisp on the outside, with a savory and flavorful filling that hit all the right notes. It was a delightful and satisfying breakfast option. Equally impressive was the ham and cheese croissant. The croissant itself was beautifully flaky and buttery, with a golden-brown crust that was both visually appealing and delicious. The ham and cheese filling was generous and well-balanced, making it a truly enjoyable treat. The overnight oats were another highlight. They had a pleasing texture and just the right amount of sweetness, offering a wholesome and refreshing option that complemented the other items perfectly. Overall, my experience with Butler was exceptional. The quality of the food and coffee was top-notch, and I would highly recommend Butler to anyone looking for a well-crafted and delicious meal. I’m looking forward to my next order!

A cute little walk up coffee shop located in the heart of Williamsburg. Perfect for dog owners or people on the go. I enjoyed my coffee and absolutely loved the cute pink cup it came it, it is all the little details that add up. I did try to walk into a barber shop next door thinking it was a seating area, but heads up, it’s not! Haha - just walk up available at this location. Perfect for the sunny days ahead.

I love Butler. The coffee and the sticky dates muffin. But most importantly, it’s Muji who makes my morning coffee and always brings a smile!! He is the best! Always asking about my day. I’ve seen him dealing with a lot of people in the line and custom requests. He’s always cool, collected, and calm!! Love Butler! Love the baristas!

Butler offers a delightful coffee experience in the heart of Williamsburg. Its connection to a barbershop adds a whimsical touch. The coffee is top-notch, making it a must-visit for caffeine lovers. A perfect blend of charm and taste!

I absolutely LOVE this little coffee window. Not only is the coffee delicious, the service is spectacular! The barista Muji is the best! He always is so fun and welcoming. I walk out of my way to get coffee here, because I love the experience so much!

Coffee is good but mainly my favorite local everyday spot for the barista Muji. Very chatty and friendly which really adds a lot to the community in the neighborhood!

Veggie empanada was tasty, and not overstuffed with many ingredients, it would take away from the crusty, well prepared dough. To drink, I had a iced chai latté with liquid sugar because they don't carry flavors, as a heads up. I enjoyed both items so much, and the customer service was great. Food was prepared quick! If you need somewhere to sit, there is inside and outdoor seating. Outdoor seating is covered by umbrellas, but if it rains, well, you should probably head inside.

A really cute coffee shop in Williamsburg. I was really happy they had a window ordering service since I was walking my dog. I got a flat white and a veggie breakfast empanada. The flat white was great and the green sauce that came with the empanada really added to the flavor. I just wish there was something else instead of just egg in the veggie breakfast empanada. I would go back to try other coffees.

I found this walk up coffee window while browsing on Yelp. It was super close to our hotel, so Nate and I grabbed a latte one morning when we were visiting New York a few months ago. There was a bit of a wait when we arrived, but plenty of sidewalk space and dog watching to keep us occupied while waiting for our drinks. There was some outdoor seating available too, which people were utilizing. They have a pretty basic, limited menu with your standard coffee options and a few pastries. The latte we got was good, smooth and creamy and not overly acidic. I'd stop by again if in the area.

I love me some nice espresso or cortado after a meal and we pottered over to Butler and had a regular coffee and a cortado. Smooth as can be. I loved it. Service was so pleasant made up for the place we had been to lunch in the neighborhood before. I will definitely be getting some cortado when I'm around.

My friends discovered Butler just over a year ago and we've been huge fans since. The pastries are fresh and tasty. The matcha is my favorite brand, matchaful. Their coffee is great. Their milk alternative options are bountiful, like every other cafe in the area. Their breakfast sandwiches are addictive. Their avocado toast always has seasonal vegetable that levels it up. Their indoor seating is comfy and great for cafe-work time, including outlets. However, they do restrict when you can use a computer, based on their most popular times of day. Overall, great spot to stop by, especially on your way to Domino park.

My ultimate FAVORITE coffee in New York. Iced Oat Milk Lattes are chefs kiss. My go to spot basically every morning. Also the friendliest staff at North 8th!

I had the chance to pick up an oat milk latte while meeting a friend to hang out at Bushwick Inlet Park nearby. They only have take out service and a small seating are for you to enjoy your beverage. However they were extremely efficient and fast with their service even though there was a long line once I arrived. The latte itself was super tasty and well made. They didn't burn anything (which is easy to do with something like this). Service was friendly and I left super satisfied with what I got. I'd definitely recommend trying Butler if you're in Williamsburg, near the water, and looking for a tasty caffeinated beverage.

I didn't realize this place was only to go. The coffee was good for what it was - I got a iced latte. They don't have flavors? Which is fine just surprised.

I love every Butler location- they have great pastries and an amazing Chai Latte.

Stopped by here Saturday while visiting Brooklyn. Best coffee I've had in years, really a stand out. The barista was super friendly and cool. Did not try the food on this visit, but looked good. Will be getting coffee here every day of visit!

The only thing that slaps harder than Muji's jokes at the crack of dawn are his lattes. Whether or not Butler serves the best coffee in Williamsburg may be a point of contention, but if you're grabbing a cup as a reprieve from solitude, then Muji is your guy.

This is a cute stop to make if you're strolling around Brooklyn & need a delicious mocha! Barista was friendly and the service was great. Will be coming back for more mochas!

My day doesn't start off without the best coffee, dog treats for our Frenchie Mabel and morning conversations with Muji at Butler on North 8th. Hands down their best barista since Tull went home to Australia. They need more people like him at this location. Highly recommend

This is my favorite coffee shop in Williamsburg. Coffee is great and the barista Muji who is there most days is super nice and friendly. Highly recommend!

Love this spot! Had always noticed the pink window on my walks, but didn't stop for a coffee until a few weeks ago. I'm so glad I did, because the coffee is great, the barista is so friendly, and there's a punch card system that allows you to get your 10th coffee free! Will definitely be back. :)

Horrible service! Coffee "sales clerk" was an asshole immediately after me and my wife walked in (we're an interracial couple btw). Apparently they'd just closed and he said there were signs all over we "should've read". He wasn't wearing a mask either. AVOID AT ALL COSTS, in times likes these a place like this deserves no business...

My wife and I grabbed two lattes and two of their breakfast empanadas one afternoon last week. The lattes were very good and the empanadas were amazing. I had the eggs and bacon one and she had the veggie. Guy at the window was very nice and friendly- we will definitely be back.
