I can't go to Madison without stopping at Leopold's. The book selections are a little smaller than the other indies around but guaranteed you will find books not seem everywhere else. Then stop and grab a coffee (or like me a cocktail) and read fur a bit. Love this place!

Leopold's is one of my favorite places in Madison. The space is cozy and inviting. The bookstore has a great selection. The staff is amazing. The coffee, food and cocktails are delicious. If your in Madison check it out.

I would give this place a failing grade on customer service. My daughter and I ordered our coffees for inside. They handed us the drinks in paper cups. To top it off my coffee was luke warm at best. The place is chaotic. Staff does not bother to make eye contact. I waited five minutes before calling a staff member who was just starting her shift to get her attention. She replaced my coffee. My daughter and I are never going.

Dan and Alayna are the best duo for the bar. Whenever I see them, it’s going to be a great night that turns into a great week. The drinks are always perfect and Instagram ready.

This Caffe was unexpected. We stopped in after the Badger Game not knowing what to expect. We had no idea it was a Book & Coffee bar that sold cocktails and beer as well. They do offer a snack menu. Very cozy setting with ambiance lighting. I was surprised that it was a book store too. Bartenders were very knowledgeable and friendly. We both opted for a coffee. I had the Nola Cold brew with Carmel and my friend had a latte. Both were delicious and needed.
