The Black Locust Cafe looks a little different than a lot of Madison cafes. We like to think we’re a bit more welcoming than most, too. Proof is in our menu, which is omnivore, vegetarian, and vegan-friendly all at once, and features a selection of bing sandwiches, sweet and savory crepes, breakfasty things, juices, and a rotating mix of baked goods that just doesn’t look like the menu at other cafes in town.
We believe that Black Locust Cafe has one of the coolest and most unique spaces in Madison. They have some beautiful colors working for them with and what feels like three different spaces to work in or have conversations in. They also have excellent seating outside in the courtyard area which is a huge win. The baristas have always been friendly and know how to throw down some nice art which is a cool skill. It's interesting that they use True Coffee Roasters but we love that they're supporting small business and they make some great tasting coffee from it. Really wish they would add pour overs to their menu but we'll see.
