The story of Buttercup begins in 1988, when David and Debbie were just starting their family. At the time, David worked for an upscale dinner house. They had a hard time finding a restaurant that offered fresh food, yet was casual enough to bring their children. Fast forward to today, we now have four locations in Oakland, Walnut Creek, Concord and Vallejo.
