Our party tried their everything bagel (which came with a garlic butter dip) along with a variety of lattes. There's so much seating both inside and outside, the baristas are incredibly sweet, and the prices are TERRIFIC! I can't remember the last time I paid less than $7 for a latte, yet I paid a little over $5 for a flavored latte with an milk alternative. Speaking of dairy alternatives, one of their options was pistachio milk--I had never heard of that prior to my visit, and they were kind enough to let me try it before I committed. Safe to say, I'd happily return if I ever find myself back in Madison!

Recently moved to Wisconsin. Me and my boyfriend tried Graces as it was recommended to us. We went…read morea few times and the staff was always unwelcoming and rude, besides one employee. One particular issue we had was asking about them grinding our own personal beans. Our previous visit, we asked the employee working if we could bring in beans from our shop back home, and if they could grind it for us. The employee told us we could. We went today, and the cashier, visibly just annoyed with us all around, said they don't do that and was very short worded. So not only is most of the staff here pretty rude, they also just lied to us for no reason. On top of that, the coffee just tastes very artificial. Super disappointed as I had high hopes for this shop. I just feel uncomfortable being in that shop. Won't be coming again. :/.

This was one place I definitely wanted to try. I decided on drive thru and ordered an iced cold…read morebrew. I asked about cold foam and the person who I was speaking with only gave me an option of mango lemon cold foam? I asked again, as I know cold foam can be vanilla or salted caramel and maybe I miss understood. She again said mango lemon? I then said to just give me a splash of half and half. As I went to the drive thru window the girl asked what cold foam I wanted? I told her I didn't order the cold foam because the flavor was odd to me and didn't sound good in cold brew. She told me that they do have vanilla and salted caramel and asked me if I wanted her to add that and the charge to my order? I told her no thank you and paid for my iced cold brew ( honestly the cold foam at that point should have been no charge with all the confusion ). She handed me my drink and then I asked if they have a loyalty program and then the girl ( named Shirley) said that they do and I asked if she could add me. She took my phone number and then I asked if the drink I just purchased would be included in my reward loyalty program. She said that it wouldn't be because she had already rang me up and I paid. This was not a good experience in my opinion. Lots of misses How does the cold brew taste you ask? Meh, It is bitter and I am sad to say that

The barista was friendly and helped me pick out a drink, which I appreciated. My coffee tasted smooth and was made just the way I like it. It was also nice to have a quieter environment where I could focus without feeling crowded. Parking was simple and the whole visit felt relaxed and easy. The only thing that would make it even better is having a few more drink options, but I still had a great experience and would definitely come back.

In addition to that, the locals that were at the event couldn't stop talking about how good they were and even asked where I had gotten them. Sad that I didn't snap a picture but they were fantastic.

The staff was exceptionally friendly and made us feel like regulars, even on my first ever visit. I didn't order a meal, but they offer a full menu, plus the baked goods looked delicious. There are art and pottery for sale, made by local artists and a young potter. I picked up two pieces of pottery, for a great price. The art was out of my budget, but was truly stunning! I wish there was a Java Cat in every town. So lucky to have found it on my visit to Madison last weekend. I'll definitely return!!

We split a club sandwich and Husband added a cup of broccoli cheddar to his order and I added a monster cookie. The sandwich was delicious. Fresh ingredients and lightly toasted. The monster cookie was delish as well. So fresh and chewy. You order at the counter then find your table and chat til they call your name to pick up your order. The place was packed. With a home dining room vibe, there were tables spread out throughout the area. Parking is rather limited but several parked across the street. Great stop.

You don't need to ask for samples, she'll just start handing them out. Their flavors are inspired and unique but still have classics available. The mint cookie crunch was exactly what you would expect, they don't have smaller cups so no matter what size you get the same one. I got the cherry almond which was good, but could have had more almond in it. It was very distinctly almond extract flavored. Otherwise, I didn't love all the flavors but appreciated all that they were trying to do

We jumped right into a scoop of the campfire - a smokey, non-marshmallow-based ice cream with chocolate and a cold brew blackberry chip - a caffeinated, not so bitter, sweet with blackberry chunks ice cream. The people who were helping us (who we also presumed had owned the place) were incredibly sweet and had us sample a ton of ice creams without asking. I guess in the same vein would recommend the salted vanilla bean!!
