Lazy Jane's Cafe and Bakery — Restaurant in Madison

Romantic & life shattering. It was like taking a step back in time. Adorable cottage backdrop admist a wide range of delectable breakfast selections. I had a London Fog Tea with a vegetarian grilled cheese special that came with chips & a salad, complimentary of the chefs. Yes, the food hit the spot & the atmosphere was delightfully charming, but as I was taking in all senses, I was suddenly hit by a 6th. It's not the first time my psychic senses have been activated, but it was my first time having this experience betwixt the throes of a meal. The taste of the food, the original hardwood floors, the cheery kitchen staff - it all triggered a vast array of past life memories to flood my mind. I shook so wildly I unintentionally tossed my drink over the side of the loft in which I was sitting. Patrons who witnessed this moment claimed I was running through multiple languages in a span of seconds as I cried out in pain remembering the stories of lives I'd left behind. Flashes of heartbreaking visions blinded my mind. Charise, the time I was a young girl who passed in the arms of my lover after he had unintentionally shot me in a saloon in the wild west. Garder, the life I lived as a fearless womanizing Sailor in the harbors of old England. "Chet-pa", one of my most tragic lives as an ancient oracle who was endlessly mocked for his nose size in a time before humans were ever concerned with what year it was. All of this, rushing through my veins & interrupting my nervous system on every level. I screamed with the pain of a mother losing 1,000 children. I laughed with the heart of a clown entertaining a million person crowd. I spewed bodily fluids with the power of two colliding locomotives with an endless turbo drive powered by the space time continuum itself. A full body orgasm; the ultimate heartbreak. How many lives? I could never estimate, but I felt & knew it all here...at Lazy Jane's...

ERMAHGERD, the SCONES!!! We went here based solely on reviews during our trip to Madison this weekend. Totally missed the main building where you could go in, sit down and eat. We didn't care - we were too busy shoving scones down our scone hole. I've maybe had a scone... once in my life? Never really cared for them because, well, they're scones. These scones...oh...wow. They are amazing. I had/tried the lemon, cherry and raspberry. Best scones ever. We couldn't stop talking about them the rest of the weekend.

We managed to find the actual restaurant this morning, which was about 30 feet away and stopped in for breakfast. We both had the frittata, potatoes and toast. AMAZING breakfast. The frittata was awesome! All the food was hot, well-cooked and really, really tasty. Decent portion size; we were both full when we left.

Friendly staff, nice atmosphere and great, great food. Nice to see they cater to all kinds of sensitivities, allergies and vegans (though I have no food issues). It was HOT in the restaurant that morning. A fan or two would have really helped.

Very laid back, casual, kitschy atmosphere. No idea why there is an "annex" a few buildings down that isn't connected. Maybe just for to-go stuff? There's no seating in the smaller location a few buildings down.

Place is cash only, which I can understand (stick it to the man and his stupid CC fees for businesses), but in this day and age, well, I almost never carry cash.

Big thumbs up. We'll go back any time we...

Just thinking on their service model makes me lazy to go back. This place is in and old house, you order on the counter by reading multiple menus written on a high wall. The hand written menu is not easy to read and the person taking the order looks impatient. They give you a pager and then you try to find a table. There are not too many tables, maybe 15 or so. Then you seat and wait for the dirty pager to burp and pick up your food, your silverware, your napkins and use the common condiments if you desire. Then seat and try to eat their food. I ordered a hamburger and my companion a Rueben sandwich. Both very bad. My hamburger patty seems boiled. Did not have any grills marks and devoted of flavor but that of boiled meat. The sides were pathetic, old looking store bought potato chips and a salad made with old lettuce with some sore of white looking dressing. We seat close to the stairs that go to the second floor and realize that most of the plates people carry where looking the same. With the same potato chips and “salad”. My companion could not finish the sandwich because it was very greasy and the salad too weird. Should be ilegal to call that a side salad. This was my third time and not looking to get back anytime soon. But somebody likes their food, the place is busy and you may be lucky enough to get a table after ordering your food. BTW, parking is “limited” in that area of town but the restaurant has some parking, the best Lazy Jane has...
