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.

The location is tucked into a quiet neighborhood, right across the street from a park and beach on the lake. I walked in and was immediately greeted and served, and all the while, the staff member was chatting with me like an old neighbor about the different ice cream flavors. What an awesome, unique experience. I went on a 90° day in July; I decided to take my waffle cone and check out the lake across the street. Phenomenal. Absolutely phenomenal.

As a peanut butter lover, the peanut butter madness flavor was perfect! I don't think a lot of the places that carry Babcock ice cream regularly have this flavor and I didn't know what I was missing! So good. We sent for a walk in the adjacent neighborhood ice cream in hand. Service was quick and friendly! Couldn't think of better way to spend an evening in Madison in the summertime.

A great alternative to going in campus to get the Babcock ice cream. Parking is much easier (street…read moreparking) and there are no lines. The prices are a little higher than the campus locations. The majority of the same flavors are there.

Service is also a featured item at this location; warm friendly staff. Seating is nice little tables not too close but still can seat a nice group of patrons and a back room if you have a larger group or a small special event. We've been to this locations years ago and now that we are back in Waunakee, WI. We stopped because of great service and food. While things have changed, nothing has changed. A definite stop on your travels.

First time here. We were on our way up north and stopped in for a hot beverage. It's part of a…read moresmall strip mall on the west side, with a few metal café tables for outdoor seating. Inside is a large area with plenty of seating, plus some additional rooms for groups to meet. We received a friendly greeting and helpful service at the counter. I ordered my usual London Fog (little lavender, little vanilla, extra foam), and they did a great job preparing it. I also ordered a Cranberry Orange Scone, which they warmed up. After a few minutes (to allow the tea to steep), both items were ready. The London Fog was excellent -- flavorful, balanced, and not overly sweet. The scone, however, was disappointing; though warmed, it tasted dry and stale. Two other issues detracted from the visit. Much of the furniture looked worn and past its prime, and there were flies throughout the space that were a constant distraction. Overall, the experience was underwhelming. While the beverage was very good, the food quality and atmosphere would keep us from recommending or returning.

Plenty of seating for everyone. Parking out front. Outstanding selection of wine and spirits. Today I had the breakfast sandwich for the first time which was delicious. The cashier told me that they make their own roll and it was outstanding. Really enjoyed the French toast cold brew, which was a seasonal item. Just an all-around great experience.

They didn't have a lot of flavors but I did feel like they had pretty unique flavors so I loved that. My mom & I split a flight.

This is my must-go spot when I have friends visiting from out of town. The flavors are constantly rotating, but if you follow their Instagram they update it with whats in stock. There is some indoor seating and outdoor as well during the summer months. I don't think I've ever had anything I *disliked* here. But the stand out flavors for me includes: lavender honeycomb, harvest moon, and fluffy the mint slayer!
