Concord's family diner since 1988

Our Concord diner sits along Clayton Road in South Concord, an easy stop for families heading toward Six Flags Hurricane Harbor Concord or Clayton Valley, and a regular breakfast spot for Diablo Valley College students and staff commuting through the area. We're also a short drive from downtown Concord and Todos Santos Plaza, so you'll see everyone from weekday regulars to weekend visitors in for the farmers market. Like all four Buttercup locations, the Concord kitchen makes nearly everything from scratch, from the soups to the pies — the same recipes David and Debbie started with in 1988, served up in a relaxed, family-style dining room built for groups, kids, and long, unhurried breakfasts.
Parking: Free on-site parking lot directly in front of the restaurant, with plenty of spaces even during busy weekend breakfast hours.
Breakfast is on the menu from open to close. Regulars come for the Extra Omelette, our most popular, and the corned beef hash and eggs, which we'll put up against any in the East Bay. The Denver Omelette has been a 49ers pick since 1988. There are benedicts, from the classic to the Linguica and Biscuit Benedicts, plus chicken and waffles, Banana Foster French Toast, and biscuits with sausage gravy. Don't leave without trying a Frosted Cinnascuit, our cinnamon-sugar biscuit with cream cheese frosting.
After the breakfast rush, the kitchen turns to diner comfort food: Mom's Meatloaf, the All American Turkey Dinner, fried chicken, and prime rib. Burgers and sandwiches include the Hickory Cheddar Burger, the Patty Melt, and a Prime Rib French Dip. Start with the Jumbo Mozzarella Sticks; they're one of the dishes we're most famous for.
The P in ButtercuP is for pie. Our signature is the upside-down apple-walnut pie, finished with a crunchy brown sugar and walnut glaze. Our pumpkin pie was voted best in the San Jose Mercury News and Oakland Tribune taste-off. Whole pies are available to take home.
Our Concord dining room hosts birthdays, family celebrations, team breakfasts, and corporate lunches, typically for 12 to 50+ guests. We can do breakfast, brunch, lunch, or dinner, with vegetarian options and other accommodations arranged in advance.
