đ´ Lake Madison brunch - The Statehouse
Edgewater Hotel Brunch (Madison): Lake Views, Sourdough Toast & Top-Tier Vibes đł This brunch spot is hidden inside Edgewater Hotelâand itâs only open on weekends! With floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking Lake Mendota, the view alone is worth the visit⌠though the wind was too strong to open the outdoor patio today (next time, fingers crossed! âď¸). From standout sourdough toast to smooth cocktails, this might be one of Madisonâs best brunch spotsâhereâs why: đ Must-Try: Madison Sourdough Brunch Toast (My Favorite!) âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸ This is the star of the mealâ100% recommend! Thick-sliced sourdough from Madison Sourdough: crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy inside. The first bite hits you with rich wheat flavor, then sweet honey, fruity notes, and floral hints slowly unfoldâplus a strong, creamy cheese taste. The layers of flavor are chefâs kissâeasily the best dish of the day. I couldâve eaten two of these! đĽ Sunrise Benedict â Balanced & Delicious âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸ Perfectly poached eggs with runny yolks (yes, the good kind! đĽ) mixed with herby thyme hollandaise sauceâsalty, smooth, and not too heavy. It comes with fresh spinach and roasted cherry tomatoes, which add a bright, fresh touch. Every bite feels balancedâno overpowering flavors, just classic brunch goodness. đĽ Avocado Toast â Just âMehâ âď¸âď¸ Honestly, this was nothing special. Basic avocado toast with no fun twistsâtasted like every other average avocado toast Iâve had. Save your appetite for the sourdough toast or Benedict instead! đ đš Brunch Cocktails â No Misses! We tried two drinks, and both were great: ROSEMARY PEACH BELLINI: Fresh, fruity, and lightârosemary adds a nice herbal kick to the sweet peach. Perfect for sipping with brunch. IRISH CARAJILLO MARTINI: Coffee and alcohol blend so smoothlyârich, not bitter, and super easy to drink. Great if you want something a little more indulgent. đ Final Verdict: Top-Tier Madison Brunch Between the delicious food, friendly service, and lake views, this spot is easily one of Madisonâs best brunch options. Itâs a bit of a hidden gem (inside a hotel!), but itâs worth seeking outâespecially on a weekend when you want to treat yourself. Add this to your Madison brunch list ASAP! #Madison #UniversityOfWisconsinMadison #Brunch #Wisconsin #RestaurantRecommendation #LakeMendotaBrunch
