Does butter.fly serve breakfast?

We serve à la carte brunch rather than a classic breakfast: sweet and savory signature dishes with a global twist, daily from 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.

Do I need a reservation?

We recommend one, especially on weekends. Parties of 1–6 can book online; for 7–15 guests, send a group request. Walk-ins are welcome depending on availability. Reservations are for brunch tables only – bar seats and coffee-only visits can't be booked.
