One of my favorite coffee shops in Madison! Delicious coffee and food! I would give Lakeside 6 stars if I could.

very cute coffee shop & brunch place! there are a few different areas to sit - but finding seating can be tricky if it’s busy. room 1 has great lighting and plants, while room 2 has a great view of the lake! the basement has games and a cozier vibe. coffee and service are excellent :)

Great vibes and neat interior space. I got the seasonal brown sugar cinnamon latte and sat next to the window. Would love to come back in the summer.

Enjoyed the lake view and great coffee! Just a heads-up, some old damaged furniture affected the interior vibe. Overall, a good experience.

I've never been to this coffee house before. I was out walking my dog and wanted to get a latte. Con entering the building. I walked up to the coffee bar about 2 minutes. I was acknowledged and told to go back to the hostand to order and waited at the host stans for about 5 minutes. Finally, someone took my order. And I waited about 20 minutes for a single cup of coffee. The attitude of the staff was not pleasing. Not very friendly at all. My experience of the restaurant atmosphere was loud with screaming children everywhere. I will never set foot in this place again

Super lovely cafe, the food and service were great.I had the turkey sandwich with a small green salad. The food was fresh and tasty and the coffee was great. When you order coffee (drip) you have 3 options to choose from, and all three of them tasted right.

Get the pesto melt. Simple but soul warming. This is what a coffee shop should be. Love this
Hidden gem! This coffee house backs up to the cutest beach and park! It has beautiful views of Monona Bay and lots of gorgeous artwork throughout. There are tons of seating areas between at least 4 separate rooms. Each is unique (the store front bar area, the open floor plan coffee shop, a room in between, and at least 1 seating area in the basement). There is also ample seating outdoors, although the weather kept me indoors. There is street parking for cars, and lots of bike parking. The staff is friendly. My dirty Chai tea latte was delicious!

Great coffee shop. Most places in Madison are always packed, but this place usually has seats available. Great coffee, good food, beautiful view of the lake. Can’t complain here.

It's ok. Nothing special here. Solid coffee and limited bakery items, only cherry scones. Went with the toast and jam. Side is the best way in and out.
Cozy neighborhood coffee
