“Delicious food and cute atmosphere.“

“Delicious food and cute atmosphere.“

“We had a bit of everything and everything was so good! Thanks too the lady working, she was patient, fun and quick!“

“I’ve been a regular since the cafe first opened. Everything I’ve tried has been delicious. I love that it is an important part of McFarland history. Such a great place to meet a friend. Very surprised at the negative reviews. Please support this local restaurant owned by a McFarland’s family.“

“We are spoiled for good choices for coffee shops on the east side of Madison now, and Ancora adds another excellent option. We have been several times since they opened, both eating in and the drive through. Workers have always been friendly and efficient, the coffee and food options are several cuts above the big chain coffee shops (they have one of the better breakfast burritos around), and the seating is well lit by giant windows and always clean. The drive through only has room for a few cars, so it fills up easily, but they do a good job of moving customers through it. The pricing is a little more expensive than at national chains, but you are getting what you pay for and more in terms of quality.“

“Yes on a normal day, but don’t go on a holiday day. My daughter ordered and it took over 30 mins plus to get her drink and she was told it would only be 15 minutes. Called and talked to the manger who just apologize that is all.“

“Top notch service and excellent food. Unbeatable value as well. Highly recommend to anyone!“

“Nice little spot in the UW hospital and clinic for coffee and food. Special shout out to Tim: people coming to this Beans n Cream are probably not having their best day since it's inside the medical facility, and Tim was truly a beacon of light and kindness. He went out of his way to improve the days of the people that came to the counter. Remarkable service.“

“I have only visited the Sun Prairie location since October 2023. My go-to is the breakfast sandwich and my son, who is very particular about his French Toast, says it's his absolute favorite. I'm not a coffee drinker but their Chai is my favorite when I'm out and about. Don't forget to ask for the cheesy potatoes!“

“Great food and service! Very friendly atmosphere.“

“Great friendly staff, very good coffee.“

“Great food but the best part of the dining experience was Ian. Please give him a raise. Spoke to him only a short while and he is an absolute sunshine. Came in with a huge smile and such a happy attitude!! Thank you Ian truly for making something so simple so so special. If Ian is your waiter you are truly fortunate. Treat him right!“

“Lovely barista there. I don’t know her name but she had black hair and a colorful face mask. She was super kind and went out of her way to make sure everyone was comfortable- all while taking everyone’s orders and making them by herself!“

“definitely better than your typical truckstop food (Denny's, Iron skillet) excellent food, freshly prepared and good service, clean and (pretty servers) awesome bakery, parking for semis“
