The idea

It began with a cake

Every cake, mousse and pastry in the case is eggless and fully vegetarian, with no shortcut on flavour.

How it started

Cake came first. The café followed.

Buttercrème opened as a cake maker with one rule kept ever since. Every cake, mousse, and pastry in the case is eggless and fully vegetarian, with no shortcut on flavour.

The room grew from there into a cozy cafe for sandwiches, espresso, and colourful house drinks. People settle in for an afternoon slice or stay late over a Midnight pour.

Come sit a while

We are on Dresden Row near Clyde, the warm yellow corner Halifax has been talking about. Stay for dessert, stay for the vibe.
