This rustic homey feeling coffee shop is unassumingly located off the south shore of Monona Bay. From the seating arrangements to the lake views to the menu and baristas, it gives off a very hip vibe, which is a good thing. Came here to work on some writing and it proved to be a good environment for that. There is a large variety of different seating types and environments, you can sit outside, in a large room near the lake where the service counter is, downstairs, or in the secluded room nearer the road. The staff was friendly when I was there and the iced coffee with light caramel flavoring was excellent. There are plenty of outlets for plugging in your electronics and it wasn't very loud at all, perfect studying environment. From the outside you wouldn't think it but this place can get pretty packed. Bathrooms are decently well kept up but there is only the one gender neutral one. Didn't try any of their food options but they sounded good. One downside is they were out of soy milk when I ordered and they offered no discount or suggestions in place of that
