Great place for breakfast, this was our first visit. This place is so Madison. I never had an eggplant omelet before and it was wonderful fresh and delicious. The scones were really good as well, some of the best bakery I have had. Friendly helpful staff, parking available on the side of the building.
Great staff, excellent food. Had the Cuban special, good combo. The salad had bits of basil, very tasty. I’ll go again. Highly recommend.
It was about 10am on Sunday and there was a line out the door, but it was worth it. Not a huge scone fan, but the pumpkin chocolate chip was very good. Something for everyone, but maintains a home cooked meal feel. Sunny side eggs were cooked perfectly. I will recommend and go back.
Great scones. Great chorizo scramble. Good French toast. Cute place with good food and nice folks.
Perfect! The food, atmosphere, staff...it was all perfect. I will not be looking any farther for breakfast when in Madison. And they even have gluten free breads and scones!
The only scones I eat are Lazy Jane's.. Scones are typically not my favorite because I usually find them too dry. I'd rather have a donut or bagel over a scone almost any day of the week...UNLESS those scones come from Lazy Jane's. Lemon cream has my heart.
A place for everyone. Nothing embodies the Willy St mantra better than Lazy Jane's. It truly is a place for anyone. The staff is amazing, the cooks are swift and skilled, and the atmosphere is eclectic, stimulating and cozy all at the same time.
I like to give the cooks a fake name to shout out when my food is ready. Try it! (Topical references and cartoon/sit-com characters are some of my favorites... also celebrity hybrid names like Brajolina or Bennifer)
And yes, you must get a scone.
I would move to Madison just to eat here.. I was spending a night in Madison on my way back to Chicago and put out a call on Twitter for suggestions of places to eat breakfast while I was there. When all four of the people I specifically asked suggested Lazy Jane's, I knew that was the place to go. I was absolutely won over by every aspect of this place.
The cafe itself was totally adorable, and the staff was super friendly. I loved the mismatched plates and silverware. The whole place had a very cozy, eclectic feel to it. And nothing makes you feel more welcome in a new restaurant then when they give you free food!
The food was delicious. I played it safe with the eggs, potatoes, and toast, but in retrospect, I wish I'd been a bit more adventurous. The breakfast potatoes were fabulous - and I'm VERY picky about my breakfast potatoes - and the scones were absolutely out of this world! We actually stopped at the bakery next door to pick up a couple to take back to Chicago with us.
I hear this place gets pretty crowded on the weekends, and I can understand why. However, it was only about half full, and there was no line, when we arrived about 9:30 Sunday morning. I chalked this up to fate, luck and the fact that the street is totally torn up.
I definitely understand why it was a unanimous suggestion among my friends, and I will certainly be returning next time I'm in the Madison area.
Kitchen Kitsch is Neato Keeno!. It's true you may have to wait a bit if you head to Lazy Jane's for breakfast at peak times, but the fantastic decor- something like a tasteful hippy's garage sale collage- keeps you comfortably entertained. I highly recommend the tomato bisque soup!
Best breakfast in town by far. Everything here is great!
Scones. Best scones I've found and I'm a scone enthusiast....
Go on off hours. The food is always good here, but I only go on off hours as I don't want to wait a half an hour for breakfast. I prefer wait service to self service so I don't frequent this establishment. A good place if you want to read the paper, don't care about waiting for your food, don't mind the staff calling you to the service area, and don't mind waiting on yourself. Good food and bakery!
