I was in Madison this past weekend for the IronMan, and when you gotta carbo load for breakfast, Short Stack Eatery seemed like a good bet. WE WERE NOT WRONG. We tried the sweet potato oatmeal pancakes, the pecan french toast, and the blind special. Literally EVERYTHING is delicious. I had the full stack for the pancakes and it was a LOT of food. Next time, I'd probably get a short stack and eggs or something. But seriously, it was perfect. We tried to come again on Monday after the Ironman, but then were devastated that they're closed M/T/W. Heart breaking.
Warning: It gets MAD crowded on the weekends after around 9. Get there before 8:30 am and you will be much happier!
