Breakfast & Brunch

Ease into each and every morning with a fresh-baked breakfast--no matter where you are in the Madison area!

Central/Downtown
The Madison Concourse Hotel is often a gathering spot for brunch (even for locals!) as part of the Dayton Street Grille's contemporary menu offerings. A short walk around our capitol blocks will take you to Marigold Kitchen which features in-house baked goods and coffee to-go. For a brunch with world flavor, try Samba for a taste of Brazil in an elegant, historic location. The Eldorado Grill provides a Mexican twist on brunch while the Essen Haus adds in German influences with their weekend morning specials.

East
Madison's east side offers plenty of places to tempt your tastebuds, including Daisy Café and Cupcakery where you'll find baked-from-scratch cupcakes and muffins to pair with fair-trade espresso. If a family-style, 50's breakfast is more your taste, Monty's Blue Plate Diner provides all-day breakfast, every day of the week.

West
Head west to find a fabulous breakfast at Bluephie's, including scramblers and other specialty items. And don't forget about dining options that overlook our lakes, including the award-winning brunch at the Nau-Ti-Gal on the shores of Lake Mendota.
