Strengths:
-easy parking
-outdoor patio
-vegetarian-friendly menu
-attentive service and unending coffee refills
-air conditioning
-proximity to bike paths
-lots of comfy booths
Weaknesses:
-they could only *almost* find the gluten-free menu and weren't sure what was in some of the sauces
-the women's bathroom was about 120 degrees and stuffy
-desert options looked non-existent for the gluten-free crowd, though I didn't look very closely
It was still a fun place to have brunch with a friend, even if I ended up drinking way too much coffee. I had an omelette and it was fairly standard. Apparently people say it's overpriced for Madison, though since I live in San Francisco, I'm not really one to say.
I would have happily given another point if only the staff could have found the gluten-free menu.
