Rotunda Cafe

I had a really nice time here this morning. This was my first time inside after passing by here often. The two staff members at the bar were very kind and welcoming. I had a nice mocha and sandwich. The place was clean and beautiful on a sunny morning. Great seating, and there are community rooms and conference rooms available too. I’m really glad I stopped in and I’m excited to go back!

Wherever Pauls Pelmeni goes I will follow. Great tranformation of a beautiful bank rotunda. Work very close by and was pumped to have a good local coffee shop so close. The dumplings are simple and perfect, probably a top 10 meal of mine that I will enjoy until the end of days

I love working from this place! Such a neat building. The food and coffee are delicious!

Really great place for food, coffee, beautiful atmosphere and you can actually bank there too! What could be better?

Great building. Good coffee. Not really a place for vegan food so I have no idea if the food is any good. Perfect for business meetings for small groups or study sessions with friends. Good outside seating.

This is an amazing business! The coffee is good, espresso is good, bakery is good, AND they serve breakfast and lunch? If you have cash, they also have self-serve coffee if you’re in a rush.

I had a breakfast melt and it was huge! Great service and prices too.

Beautiful deco. Delicious Paul Pelmeni dumplings and sandwich.

What a neat place! Monona Bank has done right by the community restoring their historic building. The Rotunda Cafe occupies the majority of the extra large lobby, with plenty of space to spread out. The friendly staff serves tasty local coffee and has a good looking good menu that I haven't tried yet - but I'll be going back to change that!

Had a summer special-lavendar honey iced latte- just the right amount of sweet and coffee. Hope to be back for food!

The Paul's pal'meni served here is delicious!

Review edit 9/17/2022:
It seems like this place is having ongoing management issues. They can't keep consistent staff and are constantly having to close down during their weekend business hours or aren't staffed enough to make food when they are open. I wonder if they are not paying their staff enough or aren't treating them well. Their website let us submit an order today and said that the restaurant confirmed it, but I went over there to pick the food up and they're closed due to staffing issues! Hopefully we can get a refund. In my opinion, the quality of the food has decreased as well, probably because they can't maintain good staff.
