The cutest brunch place in all the world. I only wish it were open more than saturday and sunday
WHY SO MANY STARS:
1. The cafe is in the downstairs of a house and it feels like you are in your grandmother's kitchen. You can see them make all the food. The coffee is delicious and plentiful. You grab a mug (all different varieties, non-matching, so charming) and fill your own.
2. The seating forces you to share tables with strangers giving it a communal atmosphere
3. THE COFFEE CAKE! I've never had such a simultaneously creamy, fruity, tangy, crumbly coffee cake. INCREDIBLE.
4. The omelets are so delicate and rich. Ever-changing ingredients--fresh mushrooms, fancy cheese, arugula, chorizo. mesmerizing.
5. It's off the beaten path a bit so you get a different crowd/feel than a lot of places in madison.
They are expensive but well worth it for a weekend splurge
