A Journey of Perseverance

Behind every great café is a great story. For Elsa M. Escobedo, founder of Bread & Butter Café, the journey is one of resilience, hard work, and an unwavering love for the culinary arts.

In 2016, Elsa turned her dream into reality, opening Bread & Butter Café—a welcoming spot for the Palatine community to enjoy great food and make lasting memories. Despite challenges like the pandemic, Elsa’s vision, perseverance, and passion have kept the café thriving as a beloved neighborhood destination in Palatine.

Today, Elsa continues to focus on growing the business, creating exceptional dining experiences, and strengthening the connection between Bread & Butter Café and the community it serves.
