Butter Bun
About Butter Bun
Coeliac customers get gluten-free bread toasted in its own dedicated toaster with separate prep, one of the ways Butter Bun works through its order-to-order approach at this independent, locally owned sandwich shop on 22A Belle Vue in Bude. Sandwiches, baguettes, wraps and rolls are built fresh to order from a choice of breads and fillings, with veggie and vegan options among them, and salad boxes alongside hot and cold choices. Cooked breakfasts run in the morning, and cheesecake is made in-house and sold by the slice. The drinks list covers tea, coffee and hot chocolate, plus smoothies and milkshakes, with a Cappuccino Coffee and a Club Sandwich on the short menu. Orders are taken on a walk-in basis at the counter, with no reservations. Dogs are welcome with their owners. The shop trades Monday to Saturday during the daytime, closing on Wednesdays and Sundays.

Customer Review Summary
Sandwiches made fresh to order are the main draw at this Bude cafe, with reviewers praising generous fillings such as a tuna mayo sandwich with salad on thick-sliced brown bread, plus a chicken tikka roll and a chilli beer burrito. Close behind is the homemade cheesecake, which one reviewer calls possibly some of the best they have tasted, alongside coffee described as great and tasty. Reviewers also mention Yorkshire tea, smoothies, milk shakes and a hot chocolate topped with a chocolate heart. Veggie and vegan fillings get a mention, and a good choice of breads including baguettes and rolls. Diners repeatedly describe the place as spotlessly clean, with friendly staff and an owner called lovely. No complaints appear in the reviews. Dietary care is a recurring theme: a coeliac reviewer says the kitchen takes safe preparation seriously, uses a separate toaster for gluten free bread and never makes them feel like an inconvenience, and another says an allergy was handled well on their order.

“Such a lovely cafe. Excellent local business! I have coeliac and they are always so careful and attentive. They take the safe prep so seriously and their gluten free bread is some of the better I've had. They also have a sparate toaster so you don't have to have un-toasted gluten free bread. I always feel so confident eating there and they never make me feel like an inconvenience! Thank you.”
