Easily one of the jewels of this fine city. Located behind the University of Wisconsin's Memorial Union, the Terrace faces one of Madison's four lakes, Lake Mendota. Stop by here any evening in the summer and you'll find about 1000 people sitting around drinking beer and eating brats. Free live music (Violent Femmes and Yo La Tengo were two recent highlights), fantastic mix of people, and excellent scenery, no visit to Madison is complete without at least a stop here.
