I dined in breakfast after 12 on a weekend. I specifically choose lunch time to avoid crowd. I got a seat right away. Lot of folks were working on laptops. The place was hip. Food was excellent. Portion size was smaller though.B-Fast roast beef sandwich was my favorite item. Grainbowl with avocado was a good one as well. Toast peanut butter was my other item. Both the jam and the chunky peanut butter was of good quality. I tried their special drink - golden milk latte - which was turmeric, ginger and tea latte. It was good, but I prefer a normal latte.

QUITE POSSIBLY THE BEST BREAKFAST SANDWICH I HAVE EVER HAD. I am not joking this is a phenomenal thing to consume I wholeheartedly recommend it! Perfect balance of mozzarella, egg, tomato, spinach, pesto, and wellll toasted bread. Coffee was also very well done

Excellent coffee and a nice place to get some work in. I have to say also that their food is incredible. I got the roast beef breakfast sandwich and it was one of the best I've ever had. Truly unique and perfectly balanced. Threw a side of potatoes in there to round it out and I was a happy boy. Everyone here was friendly and they played cool music to set the vibe. Will definitely come back here!

Visited Johnson Public House for the first time on a Saturday morning (around 10 am). The venue was really cozy and warm. Had heard good reviews about their coffee and had to check it out myself! My party of 2 ordered iced oat milk lattes and they came out to around $5 each which I thought was reasonably priced. The coffee was really good - the espresso / beans used were strong & had great flavor. Also tried their a couple of their breakfast options - a breakfast ham sandwich & granola yogurt bowl. They each ran around $10 which I thought was also reasonable for the price! The granola & yogurt bowl was really good and served with macerated strawberries. The ham sandwich was really tasty as well. We were lucky to grab a free table when we walked in and it was a nice atmosphere to work in / socialize. The staff were friendly and overall the experience was great. Would recommend!

Johnson Public House is a cute cafe in Madison that's great to do work, hang out with friends, or grab a coffee alone. They have free wifi and is well lit. It is on the smaller side but it hasn't been hard to find a table on Sunday mornings. The food and coffee are very reasonably priced. I like their savory breakfast sandwiches. My favorite is the Sunday breakfast sandwich. Their lattes are well made and the iced latte comes in a large glass. I have tried to get the french toast bread pudding a few times now, but they sell out fast so go early to try that! The employees are nice and bring your food to the table.

Great first visit this past Sunday. With the Old Fashioned closed on Sundays, I scrambled to Yelp to find us an alternate and this place did not disappoint. Conveniently located down the street from our hotel and in a very cute area, is the Johnson Public House. Walked into a moderately-filled space with at least a dozen tables or so. A few tables outside. Some folks were in and out and others were there spending their morning inside, reading the paper, etc. The menu is somewhat limited, but something for everyone. I decided on the Sunday morning breakfast sandwich which was fantastic. A fried egg, grilled ham, cheddar, on a muffin that was slightly soaked in Maple syrup. The salty to sweetness balance was perfection. My wife had the french toast bread pudding and it was decent. Sorta boring after the initial bites. Small amount of strawberries added. Needed a bunch of maple syrup.They had some scones, Level 5 vegan donuts and maybe on more item at the front counter.Didn't get adventurous on the drink order, just their standard drip coffee and it was quite flavorful and not bitter at all. Not the darkest cup of coffee, but way better than your standard diner brew. Service was friendly and you order everything at the counter and they hand you a number and bring the food right to your table. A bussing station is right there for you to dispose of your own items when finished. Recommend highly.

Cut coffee shop cafe with the Wille Street upscale neighborhood kinda vibe. It's chic but homey in a sense and the service is wonderful. The baristas and cashiers are always friendly, willing to chat and share their thoughts on the offerings. When dining in you get read silverware and cups, which just makes it even more like home. People stay for dates, meets ups, and even working; so take advantage of the free wifi. Overall, I like it and it's a solid place if you're in the neighborhood.

Food was excellent, the roast beef breakfast sandwich was excellent and they had multiple hot sauce/sriracha options. The basic b smoothie is everything I've ever looked for in a smoothie that wasn't overly sugared down or sweet. The workers were very nice.
