Walking into Butch N Nellies on 19th 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.

Gridsters visit Butch N Nellies to study, conduct meetings, utilize the place as a resting ground when they are out walking their beloved pet or a place to relax all while enjoying an espresso and scone, grilled sandwich or gelato.
