| - We've been coming to the Butler's Pantry for a long, long time, usually for Brunch. The food is good, not amazing, but good. It's not the food that brings us back though. There's something about the place that is casual, cozy and comforting. The staff is warm and genuine, the coffee is good, and it's in one of our favourite neighbourhoods.
Our last dish there was the Lamb Mussaka - a Greek casserole made up of eggplant, cinnamon, lamb, scalloped potatoes and tomato sauce. To be honest, it could have used more of the tomato sauce and the scalloped potatoes needed some salt - but after adding salt ourselves, we enjoyed it.
Their scones are amazing! They're big and dense and they're served warm. They come with an unsweetened cream and a lovely jam.
It's a great place to meet with friends for an unrushed and casual bite to eat. In a city and hood where everything is always changing, the fact that Butler's Pantry has been there forever just warms our hearts in a way.
