A rare gem of a coffee shop. This place quite literally has it all. The service is top notch. They go out of there way to talk to you and genuinely show interest in you. The coffee, fantastic. Best I’ve had in Madison area since moving to the area 4 years ago. The food, terrific. I’ve had their scones and breakfast sandwiches and both had me wanting more. Lastly, the vibe here is truly wonderful. Feels like you’re stepping into a museum but where you get to hang out and drink lattes. They also have outdoor eating and life concerts in the warmer months. Go out of your way to come here. Make a date out of it. Whatever it takes. You won’t be disappointed!

Love, love, love this place. Too bad I live on the east coast. I was in town for 3 days and visited 2 days!!!

Pulled off 94 for gas and saw this while heading there. Convinced the fella to stop and I'm glad I did! Good coffee, a few gluten free treats (along with a ton of straight ones)and awesome energy. Service was quick, perfect for an on the go cup of coffee. I told him we need to stop there every time we come through. Love the building, colorful nostalgia all in one.
