Lakeside St. Coffee House

The coffee was incredible! I got the "To Infinity and Pecan." Their customer service was really great, they brought my oatmeal to me. The staff seemed very kind. The location had a pretty view of the water. The atmosphere was like a cozy beach house. I will definitely come here again!

Fantastic coffee shop in general, and one of the best around if you have young children with you. Lots of seating in multiple rooms, including some nice views. Extensive menu in addition to coffee and other drinks, from bakery items to a full lunch. For kids a SEPARATE, downstairs play area with plenty of toys - and plenty of adjacent seating for parents and groups. There's also a small park and beach a stones throw away during nice weather.

This is officially my new coffee place in Madison. First off, the friendly service. Everyone is so nice. Secondly, good coffee and drinks. Today I got a Golden Milk Latte (or something like that) just for kicks. Great drink. The atmosphere us perfect and there's PLENTY of space to plop down for a chill time. I will be here a lot more. Seemed like a really good community coffee shop without being a bit pretentious like some other places. Really stoked about this place.

Really good coffee and friendly people working inside

I've been a dozen times before and the dining room is a gorgeous wood interior with a beautiful view of the lake coast, it really is one of the best locations in the city. Miles does the sandwiches and I recommend the capicola if it's still there, it's sourced from Fraboni's and the pickled mustard/garlic aioli is damn good. Please give compliments, idk if there's a sandwich scene here but he's doing some good work in it.

This place was amazing!! The seating options are endless it seems. There was a small "bar" area at the front of the shop for purchasing wine, and beer too I believe. The coffee and food ordering area is at the back of the building (layout like and old school house, but open conception the two areas.

There is a seating area downstairs with a kids section. Tables and chairs outside in the front and the back. Plus for an added bonus...a small park with a small beach a very short walk out the back door!! Yes you can get to go cups if need be.

My wife and I order french vanilla iced lattes, a sausage and gouda quiche and a veggie breakfast sandwich. The quiche was hands down the best one we've ever had. Not dry at all and loaded with flavor!! The breakfast sandwich was good as well! The iced lattes were the perfect addition for this hot afternoon 😊

The staff was excellent and very helpful. We are definitely going to go back in the future!! 😀

Always a Great Coffee House & Great view. Bonus Saturday morning live music.

Cute shop with decent food and coffee but every time I'm here the wait time is very long. Last time here I waited 30 mins (after a 15 minuet wait in line) for a scone and coffee and left my sandwich behind because the wait would be even longer.

Delicious specials and quiche with lots of space for larger groups and a beautiful backyard view of the lake. It seemed far too understaffed for a busy lunch hour which required a 15 minute wait in line to place an order, plus another 25 minutes to have an already-cooked quiche delivered to our table.

Still a great spot when you need to waste time and find a spot to meet.

Had the most amazing turkey, egg, cheese, aioli breakfast sandwich and tea today. What a great way to start the day! Plus Madison Sourdough cookies, are you kidding me?! Yum!
