Don't let the strip mall exterior detract you. The inside is a cozy place with a little bit of modern country house vibe to it. I ordered a medium mocha, no whip and whole milk plus a sourdough breakfast sandwich with bacon and american cheese. I usually order a quad americano but will get a mocha if I am trying a new place since the sweetness can slightly redeem a poor bean, grind, machine or barista. After ordering and paying with Apple Pay I was happy to see they use Colectivo beans so I knew at least the bean would be good and fresh. The barista seemed very knowledgeable as she was helping out a newbie espresso drinker at the time I was ordering (she may have been one of the female owners actually). My food and drink was brought to me with a smiling face which is something that usually doesn't happen in the big Madison cafes. The drink was well made and the breakfast sandwich was surprisingly large. They hit all the bases on the sandwich as far as the eggs and bacon were cooked well and the cheese was melted all the way through. If I had to criticize them on one thing I would say the level of salt was on the high side. It might have been from the bacon though. BTW, there is wifi you just have to log in using security credentials found on the table tops (or ask). All in all, a good place and I will be back.
