| - My friend and I were looking for a place to do work, but all of the coffee shops on the Capitol square were filled. Fortunately, Ancora is a little ways off of the main square, so even on the Saturday morning of Winter Fest, there were still plenty of tables (and outlets) available.
I'd only ever had Ancora coffee at the Madison airport, so I was excited to find that they had an actual storefront in Madison as well. The decor is very homey and centered around a fireplace, which definitely made studying on a Saturday a lot more enjoyable.
There is a 6 hour limit on the wifi, which is an interesting concept (why not offer unlimited internet?), but, I, personally, would never require more than 4 hours tops of internet at a cafe (I just can't sit still for that long), so it doesn't really bother me.
The chai is a little too foamy for my liking, but otherwise it tastes fine. My friend got the house coffee and seemed to really enjoy it (he's not a huge coffee drinker, I don't think, but he had two cups of Ancora coffee during our three-hour work-session there). I think I'll be sticking with the regular coffees next time!
