Base Camp proved that classic food can be done well! We both got omelets with a side of hash browns which were perfectly cooked. The service was also fantastic! The staff was friendly and kept our coffee warm! But my favorite part of Base Camp was their homemade cookies! Yum!!! read more

We drove out of our way to eat breakfast here based on the fabulous reviews. Ended up eating at 1855 Coffeehouse across the street (everything we had was delicious) as this place wasn't open. According to the Barista this place only opens when they've sent out an email to their selected email list with the date and time they will be open. Truly disappointed this isn't mentioned anywhere on the Yelp listing. You would think with such a restrictive time you're open you would list that somewhere. So, service for us was not good. read more

I absolutely love this little place. It's a nice hometown cafe.. Great food lightning fast. The concept works great. You walk in, pick up a menu and then walk to the counter with your selections, you pay, grab your drink, and you order is brought out so quick. EVERYTHING I've ordered has been wonderful. It is definitely more of a breakfast place but they have lunch items as well. They are usually only open until 2pm. You will love this place. It's perfect for brunch on a Saturday or Sunday Morning. It's great for families or to meet friends. It's very clean and the service is wonderful even with the self service feel this little place brings. They host special events and have an area to have a get together of your own. This place has a piano and at any given time someone could be playing a tune for the crowd to enjoy! Keep up the good work Base Camp Mazomanie and All about appreciate the greatness you bring. read more

We love finding out of the way places on yelp and this was a winner. I had the blueberry French toast with lemon sauce and my husband had the grilled cheese with spinach, feta, tomato on delicious bread. We saw people walking out with homemade pies in dishes they would return. We couldn't resist the cookies for the road. The owners were very welcoming. Be sure to drop by and support these folks. read more

We where so lucky to be staying in Mazomanie. Finding a gem like this is a highlight of our visit. Great breakfast two days in a row. Ready nice people that own and work there. Comfortable place to hang out and drink coffee read more

The staff and food are great. On specific weekends, they do ethnic food nights (like Thai, Vietnamese, Moroccan and German). Seats are limited but the cook is pretty great. read more

The few times we ordered food from here has been good. A simple menu but anyone can find something they like.

We love love love Base Camp and everyone who works there. Our favorite meal is breakfast but you can't go wrong at any time of day. The food is fresh, delicious and always served with a smile and friendly conversation. This is a gem of a restaurant in a small community and we're so happy to support them! read more

Staff opened door late for breakfast and were not welcoming. We had no idea if they had a waitress or if you needed to go to counter to order. After 5 minutes we decided to go someplace else. The place seemed very strange maybe the food is great but for new customers it's not inviting. read more

The blueberry pancakes are a must have. The owner is usually there working and everyone is always very friendly. Just remember that you need to place your order up at the counter. read more

It is very unusual, in my experience, to find a restaurant with so many 5 star reviews so when my boyfriend and I were going to Spring Green last week we visited this cafe right off of Hwy 14. I would give this restaurant 6 stars if I could. I had the pulled pork sliders, kimchi potato salad and beet salad. All were incredibly well prepared, delicious and all for under $6! My boyfriend had a wonderful spinach and feta omelette with a beautiful pile of crispy looking hash browns. Though pretty stuffed, we next ordered the bread pudding with rum sauce and vanilla ice cream. Once again the quality was outstanding. I live in Seattle and so far nothing I have had there compares to the food at this cafe in a tiny town in Wisconsin! read more

The old building makes for a cool atmosphere. The lady at the counter was super friendly and my omelette was good too!

Good food and friendly people. The omelettes were very good. The town is an interesting stop. The restaurant is in an old building which is very spacious and comfortable. It's like a large coffee shop with magazines to read and space to play games. I'd highly recommend it for a casual meal or cup of coffee with adults or kids. read more

Staying in Mezomonie for one day. We were told to check out Basecamp and we're sure glad we did. Delicious breakfast pancakes and omelettes. Friendly service. Nice atmosphere. Cute little downtown area. read more

An amazing historic building turned comfort food restaurant. The staff are so friendly and the atmosphere is great for all ages. There are puzzles and board games to enjoy. The service is fast and the food is delicious. The pancakes are huge and fluffy. The sliders are so flavorful and we love the pizza!! We come back time and time again!! read more

Great food and atmosphere and exceptional prices. The pancakes are delicious and the pizzas are really good. All food is made in house. It's a great place to meet friends for breakfast or lunch and linger over a cup or coffee or glass of wine. Last year we watched several March Madness basketball games on the big projection screen in the back room. read more

Food here has improved 100% since their first month opened. Izzy is a verygoid chef and she's not afraid to try new twists on common dishes. I highly recommend this cafe and most certainly recommend the Saturday night "themed" menu. read more

This is a really cute place in downtown Mazomanie, WI. I have been there about 4 times since it is near where I live and work. Unfortunately 2 of the times have not been a good experience so I won't be going back. This place closes at 2PM. I was sitting there at 1:55 and the lady came up to me and said "it's time to go home". Who does that?? Usually places quit serving at the closing time but you are allowed to finish up while they clean up. I found myself there again yesterday when the other restaurant in town was closed. Ordered French toast. It was so hard I could have broke a window with it. Clearly it had been overmicrowaved. I took it back to the counter and showed the lady that I couldn't even get my fork through it. The lady showed absolutely no concern and asked if I wanted something else. Not really...... No apology or any indication of surprise at the horrible product I was served. And to top it off there are notes at each table telling the patrons to bus their own table after eating. read more

I live on the near east side of Madison and felt right at home. I did not expect the decor of a little cafe in little Mazo to be so modern, industrial, eclectic and groovy- from purple ceiling to wood floor- and you really should check out the bathrooms! I also did not expect such a well rounded and health conscious menu. Among most honorable mention I could choose between buttermilk, chocolate chip, blueberry or trail mix pancakes. I went with one of two quiche options- the spinach, onion and bacon option- with bacon and served with fresh fruit. It was tough to choose over the variety of sandwiches and burgers but you can't go wrong here. What we ordered was delicious and prepared perfectly for my entire party. I was grateful for the opportunity to get up close and personal with the cook, Daniel. It was Daniel's sixteenth birthday and the first day he could cook (and he did a great job!) He also brought our dishes out and was very friendly, eager and accommodating by giving me a tour of the back room where recreational activities are held. We also had the opportunity to converse with the owner who was warm-hearted and an overall joy! When you stop their ask about the car wrapped in purple rain! read more

Base Camp Cafe is fabulous, fun and friendly. Mom and I were treated to free veggies - the day's selection was a beet salad, sprinkled with feta cheese. We followed our veggie treat with dessert - bread pudding with rum sauce, topped with butter pecan ice cream. A definite 5-Star experience. read more
