We love it here!! Me and my boyfriend come here all the time. Great service and great food. You can really taste the love at this place!!:)

This place ought to be packed!!! Breakfast items are incredible- their crepes are rich, and delicious. Their sandwiches wonderful. I went their first for their morning buns - which hands down are THE best in Madison. Like former Ovens of Brittany. Hands down the best Latino restaurant in town. Mold enchiladas as good as in Oaxaca Mexico! I never, ever had a bad meal. read more

A Honduran family run business provides more than the typical diner experience. The eggs Benedict was very light and delicious. Served with lightly poached eggs, asparagus, potatoes, and a 'lemony' hollandaise sauce on a croissant. A very appetizing breakfast meal. Maybe a little slower than a diner but I'll take the difference any day. read more

This is a hidden gem!! Locally owned by a wonderful couple that bring the Mexican and Honduras flair to American Food. Not only is there food for everyone's taste buds, but you can see the beautiful painting from Honduras that the wife has created :) Definitely recommend this place to everyone! read more

See all

The food is delicious, the service is friendly and quick, and the prices are low. The coffee is excellent and only $1.50 with free refills. It's becoming my weekend place for breakfast. read more

I had the Eggs Benedict this morning, it was FABULOUS!!! The crescent was light and flakey, and their Hollandaise sauce is completely unique, they add a hint of lemon! The staff was very friendly and courteous. The place clean and bright. They are on my list for new favorite places!! read more

This bakery is amazing, loads of great items. I had the eggs Benedict - wow, the best hollandaise I've ever tasted.

Best crepes ever. I'm not a fan of ricotta cream cheese centers but this was amazing! Fresh fruit, raspberry coulis, & creme anglaise drizzled on top. I thought it would be too sweet but instead it was perfection. I grasped their paper menu & will keep returning until I try nearly every item. It was that good. Also met their daughter Wendy about 16 going on 25. Fun to talk to someone so mature & well thought out for her age. read more

Monona Bakery & Eatery - Crepes - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Madison, Wisconsin

We we're staying in Madison and water a good breakfast. Found them on Yelp and decided to try it out. We we're not disappointed. Good food, friendly staff. You should definitely go here. The food is very good. read more

The eggs Benedict are delicious. Lemony hollendaise covering perfectly poached eggs bacon and asparagus on a croissant. Yum!

Their coffee mugs and drinking glasses were not clean. You could smudge it around. Food was good tho. Props to the waitress for OFFERING napkins- something I wish every restaurant would do. read more

We have gone into this place twice now.... So far we are pretty impressed!! I had their breakfast tacos the first time. The eggs were very flavorful and their salsa has really good heat to it! The second time I got their Eggs Benedict... it is definitely not traditional eggs Benedict but I did really like it. It is served on a croissant and with asparagus, YUM. my husband wanted to try the salmon omelette when we were there but they were out of salmon, so that was a bummer.... but he also enjoyed his meal both times. Since it's so new there's not a ton of sit-down business in there yet but there was a ton of traffic for their bakery. We are yet to try their baked good but I heard some folks raving about them. I like that they have a water cooler out with cups so you can help yourself to water. They do need to work on watching their coffee levels though, they ran out twice while we were there and didn't have backup done, it had to be made... Not cool when I want my coffee! Overall we are impressed enough that we will stop back again! read more

Monona Bakery & Eatery - The Eggs Benedict, Monona bakery style. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Madison, Wisconsin

This place is going to be my new neighborhood go-to. We sampled the chilaquiles, bean and cheese pupusas, a baleada, scrambled eggs off the kids menu (super cheap!) and a vanilla concha. The concha hit it out of the ballpark. I used to live 5 min from US Mexico border and this concha was orgasmically good! The pastry was plush, fresh and delicious! The chilaquiles were unique, as they are served with feta, which is not typical, but makes sense as an alternative to queso cotija. The pupusas were enormous and simply well done; the curtido was fantastic. I'm so happy that this place opened up. It's great for brunch, as it's menu is more breakfast/brunch/lunch. Great cafe, I hope it stays open because I'm addicted! read more

The friendliest people! I've only tried one menu item- the eggs Benedict-- and it's pretty darn good! Their pastries and sweets are really good too! read more

Great little bakery with all fresh authentic ingredients. The bene and breakfast tacos were amazing.

The breakfast tacos were incredible! Cute little diner with generous portions and great service. We'll definitely be back!

We just left! Service was great! Food was yummy! Can't wait to eat our danish tomorrow!! Also, check out one of the owners story telling thru painting. Really outstanding! read more

Went here after being disappointed with Rosie's and was very pleased with cinnamon roll and wonderful customer service at counter, thank you. read more

The food was OK but the service was awful! I went on Sunday for breakfast with son and maybe they didn't think they will have more costumers but they had . Most of the people like to have breakfast outside on sundays, so they should have think about it. There were just two people for 20 around. They save my food after 25 minutes and my son's milk at the last. I didn't have a good time ! read more

Great selection of food! Friendly staff! The horchata and the chilaquiles are phenomenal. I have loved everything that I've eaten there.

Friendly staff , a bit on the pricey side but quality food. Very good bakery ! Highly recommend

Honduran food, if you know to ask for it! The best, homemade from real ingredients. Check online for daily specials and ask them about their everyday items. Yummy pastries too! read more

OK so taking in the reviews I decided to head on down to this place. When I got there I was surprised how Latin food heavy it was considering the name of the place. Maybe I should have stuck to Mexican food around lunch time but since they had 2 menus I saw something on the American I love. Yeah it was not great, or even good especially for a price of $8.95 . What I thought would be fresh fruit was actually can which was the first turn off. Secondly it was swimming in a very sugary sauce that over powered the whole dish. Sorry really wanted to like this place due to past reviews but maybe it was my fault for not ordering Latin read more

What a delightful surprise! It's everything you love about a great brunch restaurant, but there's also an entirely separate Latino menu featuring delicious looking eggs/rice/beans breakfast entrées. The morning bun that we ate was still warm from the oven and completely delightful. The poached eggs on my Eggs Benedict were cooked to perfection, and my husband's berry crepes were quite tasty. Can't wait to come back soon! read more

Best breakfast spot in the area, incredible Honduran food, super lovely family, and the bakery is GREAT! (try the carrot cake)

Really a great local place run by a hardworking family, besides the quite good bakery items there is a full array of breakfast and lunch items, including American diner type dishes and Mexican/Central American cuisine. Most recently had the excellent veggie omelet, but everything I and friends have had here has been freshly prepared and tasty. Little ambience but comfortable and not noisy, friendly service. read more

Best Central American food in Madison. The owners are Latin, so you have to ask them for the "hidden menu" since these plates are not listed. I've only been once but will definitely be back again. read more

I order via Uber Eat's, and I've never been disappointed with Monona Bakery and Eatery! Their eggs benedict plate is very special to me. It hits the spot. The luscious, creamy lemon bernaise sauce is what brings the whole dish together. SO DELICIOUS! read more

OMG the breakfasts here are wonderful including my husband's crepes which he gets almost every time, the veggie breakfast burrito, and the Eggs Benedict. The scones are to die for. This is Monona's undiscovered foodie treasure. read more

Recently had breakfast with friends on a Saturday morning- everything was outstanding. Very difficult to narrow down what to have as every item sounds better than the one before. Friend had the crepes with berries- both beautiful and delicious. I had the mushroom and Swiss scramble and it was outstanding. We all agreed that we will be back! And bring more friends and family next time.Yum! read more

The eggs benedict here are the best I've ever had. The service is excellent and the baked goods are amazing as well. Thid is a great family-owned business that i highlh recommend. read more

Great breakfast spot. Don't let the bakery cases fool you, the egg dishes were amazing! I had both the crepes and the veggie burrito and both were incredible!! read more

This neighborhood storefront cafe has fresh and delicious sandwiches. I had their pesto bacon sandwich-- pesto, bacon, fresh mozzarella, thick slices of tomato and arugula on multigrain bread; my wife had an equally good tuna salad sandwich. The rest of their menu looks equally delicious. Pleasant and bright atmosphere. read more

As a large family I understand orders can get mixed up however our order was mixed up not once but four times. If you are there to taste a bit of ethic food from Honduras you are mistaken, take your money some where else, not this place. At first we walk in and it has a good present feel tables to your left order to your right. There is no friendly hello or you must order here first and sit down. We took a seat and presented ourselves to the cash registers where we ordered. After waiting 22 minutes we was presented with two plates of three pupusas with cheese and beans and another order of two of the same. They did not have a good presence to them. The masa was way to thick, there was no flavor and the cheese was of the cheap mozzarella that left a bad after taste. We the. Got our order of yuca fries that had a lack of flavor not even salt which was accompanied with some type of humus mix of garlic and mayonnaise this is not a traditional plate. We waited still for 7 more pupusas for are other guest in which the waitress kept bring the wrong ones out not once but four times at one point we got so annoyed me left the plates there and walked out. To pay $3.25 per pupusa that is not traditional when it's typical to pay Around $2 for one that is ten times better. Maybe it's the fact they are the only establishment that is selling pupusas in Madison they figure they take advantage. If you really want to taste a true pupusa head to Milwaukee where the mix of culture and soul and love gets out into one. This business my friends is not good for anything but there bland breakfast and dry pastilitos save your money and go to the real deal! read more

My small children, husband and I had dinner there tonight and, oh my goodness, every bite was just deliciously perfect. We all tried each other's dishes, so here's my review: My husband had the "baleadas" (homemade tortillas, refried beans, avocado, eggs, cream, served with a type of pico de gallo), they were delicious. For our children we ordered their french toast (made with homemade bread, served with strawberries, blueberries, caramelized bananas and drizzled with this cream sauce that was just out of this world) and scrambled eggs (topped with cheddar cheese and served with fresh fruit). I ordered the "Plato Tipico" (rice and beans cooked from scratch in coconut milk, a soft plantain, a side of something like pico de gallo, and two large pieces of carne asada cooked with garlic that left me speechless). Their horchata was also very, very good! We want to go back and explore the rest of the menu. The staff was super friendly, the place is clean and roomy enough for my family of five. Restrooms were clean as well. We're definitely going back! read more
