Butch n' Nellie’s Coffee Co.

I know the girls that own Butch n Nellies I'm sure they are just trying to get business and stay afloat in this economy. I'm sure they did not know it that their distribution staff was conducting business illegal. Now that you posted this negative review they know! And I'm sure you will not receive another flyer in your mail box!

Anyway have you been to Butch n Nellies lately? They have added TV's and special events! And they are adding more all the time.

The staff is super friendly and the food is made in house and yummy! Oh and the best news of all they have beer and wine now!!!!!

So come in and support your locally owned and operated independant coffee house/ lounge!

Butch N Nellie's has been placing mailers into people's mailboxes. The latest I received was a "Join Us For Footbal Sundays!!!" flyer. Personally, I don't want people opening up my mailbox and I  think the operation should be directing their distribution staff to conduct business legally.

Section 1725 of Title 18 of the United States Code states:

Whoever knowingly and willfully deposits any mailable matter such as statements of accounts, circulars, sale bills, or other like matter, on which no postage has been paid, in any letter box established, approved, or accepted by the Postal Service for the receipt or delivery of mail matter on any mail route with intent to avoid payment of lawful postage thereon, shall for each such offense be fined under this title.

Recently I was driving through Sac with my 10 year old son and 13 year old niece in tow.  I was jonesing for coffee like you wouldn't believe!  Being from the 'burbs (sadly), I was headed towards that ever-pervasive coffee shop where everyone wears a green apron...you know the place...  Suddenly, I saw it!  Like an oasis in the middle of the city:  Butch 'n Nellies!  Hard right into the first parking spot and we were there!

The kids loved their sorbetto (though the mango was not a good first pick) and I loved my soy latte (the foam was perfect!).  While the kids played chess (the board is painted on several tables), I flipped through the News and Review. 

Later that same week, we happened to be in the area again and, this time, hungry.  Kids got more sorbetto (raspberry is heavenly!) and I tried the veggie panini...to die for!  The bread was amazing and the innards of the sammy left my tummy more than satisfied!  Again, the kids played more chess (there are other board games, toys and books for all ages), while I caught up on some reading.

A lovely little place!

Yeah, yeah, yeah -- good coffee, interesting gelato, free wi-fi, yummy sandwiches, blah blah blah... The BEST part of this shop is its amazing assort of FREE LEGOS to play with!! Build a pirate ship and attack your friend's half spaceship, half aztec temple command post!  Mix and match, because all the parts come in a big treasure chest and who knows what you are SUPPOSED to do with them (and who cares!).  Its fun, meditative, and worth the buck or two you can throw into the Lego fund to keep the whole thing going.

Butch and Nellie's is one of my favorite stops. There is always a parking place close by and there are all sorts of different places to sit. I might perch on a stool in the window if Im by myself and have paperwork to do, or curl up on the couch to chat with friends. There are tables outdoors and a couple of surprisingly private tables toward the back. The coffee is good, the coffee drinks are good and the pastries are divine!

I'm so proud to say that I was there when this dream was in its infant stage!  The place looks warm and inviting, with what I'm sure I can say they're regular "grind" of customers who frequent daily. Now I live across the country in the south, but was born in California so I have an intimate connection with ya'll. I must impress upon everyone to check out the local art in Butch-N-Nellies, I know one of the artists and her work is AMAZING. Gotta love the Volkswagon! you go girls!!

Great coffee drinks, good Panini’s, gelato!, games, a private room, outdoor tables… Pretty darn nice all the way around.

Walking into Butch N Nellies on 19^th and I St., you will sense the aroma of fresh brewed espresso and grilled paninis as people maneuver their fingers over their laptops or share special news with neighbors.  Butch N Nellies doubles as an art gallery as the walls are covered in local art. 

Known for their organic coffees and baked treats such as scones, keish and delightful muffins, Butch N Nellies is also famous in Midtown for their unique flavors of gelato.  If you haven’t tried gelato before, it is similar to ice cream yet whipped in such a way that the air is pulled out of it, creating a dense, creamy delight.
