I’m in Madison often for work, so I’m frequently looking for coffee shops. This place in particular checked the following boxes for me - good latte, scenic, cozy, friendly, and not overly busy. It’s street parking but I had no trouble finding a spot. The staff is friendly and I found no signs of uncleanliness around the coffee shop. This is definitely going to be a place I return to.

Have only been here a few times but always enjoy it. More seats than you can fill but it still manages to get busy before lunch. Great view of the lake and has outdoor seating as well.

Lakeside continues to be a great place to start your day. The staff is top of their game serving up great drinks and food. Masks are still required, which I appreciate. Always a friendly environment for all the patrons, young and mature.

I normally don't write reviews, but I was so impressed by this place that I have to leave a good word. The shop is pretty spacious and very homey; I loved the basement with the sofas. The coffee was fantastic, and they have options for sandwiches and wine as well. Very friendly staff, and beautiful location next to the lake (and a small beach, which I'm sure would be lovely to visit in the summer). I'm definitely planning on coming back here!

I don’t know if I have encountered nicer, more friendly staff anywhere. We asked them to surprise us with a bagel of their choice, and they went above and beyond and certainly did not disappoint. The drinks were delicious as well and the presentation of it all was fantastic! We will be looking for reasons to visit Madison again just so we can come back to this coffee shop!

This cafe is absolutely beautiful. The service is fantastic and the food and coffee was outstanding, and you really can't beat the location. I drank a seasonal latte and had a breakfast sandwich on their back deck overlooking the lake, and listened to and watched the birds. It was such a pleasant experience.

This place is cozy and makes you feel like you're at camp not in the city. Though not in the best way. Tables felt a bit random and chairs felt like old cafeteria chairs at summer camp. So much potential is there, just needs some love put into the space inside.
I can't speak for food as I didn't have any.
