Mad Hatters made our wedding cake! It was absolutely delicious and the hardest part was deciding which flavors we wanted at our tasting. We ended up picking the lemon cake and chocolate peanut butter flavors. My only complaint with the whole experience is that being out of town, the email communication and paying without being in person was a little difficult. I really a great experience and would recommend! -
Mad Hatter’s can absolutely serve great coffee and baked goods. Their particular strength is the chocolate chip scone, brownies, and the sugar cookies. Croissants are also an excellent choice.
I would recommend skipping their food menu items. It takes forever to get your food. I waited over 30 minutes today and it wasn’t the first time either —It always seems they have 1-2 highly overwhelmed people working the food stations but tons of staff on the counter and pastry sections. I ordered toasted avocado toast and it was stale, with barely a hint of avocado and an actual mountain of dry arugula. If you want hot breakfast just go get something across the parking lot but don’t miss the coffee or pastries! -
I recently visited Mad Hatter (not the first time, but first time reviewing) which serves as a café, bakery, and restaurant all in one, and it was fantastic as usual! The food quality is outstanding, with fresh, flavorful dishes that left a lasting impression. Their baked goods were delicious, perfectly crafted and full of flavor. The coffee was rich and expertly brewed, complementing the overall dining experience. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, whether you’re there for a quick coffee or a full meal. The service was exceptional, very friendly, attentive, and fast. A perfect spot for any time of day! -
Great food and coffee here but unfortunately it is very busy here. I can't say if that'd the case all the time, but for sure while I was there.
Great and unique coffee, absolutely loved the Mexican white chocolate. The spicy chicken quesadilla and fries were also delicious. Took a little while for the food to come out but I'd say the price is worth it and it tasted great. Overall, solid place. -
Haven't been to Mad Hatters in probably 15 years. Mom and I wanted some place to get a quick breakfast as a start to her birthday daughter day. She got the toasted croissant, and I got the spinach and feta quiche with the arugula salad. Both were delicious! The croissant was overflowing with egg and cheese. The quiche was cooked well, and the citrus dressing on the arugula salad was wonderful and tangy. The coffee was excellent. We finished off with a salted caramel brownie bar.... um, so so good! They shop was busy, but they were getting people taken care of fairly quickly. They also have nice outside seating for nice days. Great visit and start to our day.
