I had checked out Basset Street Brunch Club online before my boyfriend and I went to Madison, and it was the perfect place to go our first morning there. After getting up late and walking around campus for a couple of hours, we knew this place would still serve us brunch around 1pm :)
I was a little skeptical when we arrived and noticed the restaurant is located in the bottom of a hotel, but shouldn't have been. Everything was awesome! The indoors were nice and comfortable, and our server was great. I believe his name was Lindberg (I remember since it was such a cool name). He was prompt and friendly without hovering.
The best part was the food. I got the savory french toast which was one of the best breakfasts I had in a long time. The hollandaise was delicious, and the combination of bacon, an over easy egg, and the side arugula salad was perfect. I wish I could have this dish delivered to my apartment every weekend. My boyfriend enjoyed his breakfast burrito although I think he was slightly less excited about his breakfast than I was. The coffee was delicious, and the entire meal came in just over $30 without tip.
I would definitely make a point to come back if I'm ever back in Madison just to get the savory french toast!
