Mickies Dairy Bar

Great coffee, good food, and throwback atmosphere--old-school diner style. Plentiful portions. You won't find anything truly healthy here, though--it's all comfort food. Fantastic service. Limited seating and the line to sit gets super long on the weekends, so get there early. Cash only, but they have an ATM inside.

I love this restaurant. My friends and I have a Saturday tradition, and the staff even recognize us at this point! They're always bright and chipper and make make funny jokes. Though a couple friends grumble about the cash onlyness, I think it adds to the charm and ambience of the restaurant. I hope they never change

One of my favorite breakfast/brunch places in Madison so far! It’s a cute diner with a wide variety of food options. There was a 10-15min wait, but it was well worth it. I got the scrambler (includes yanks, eggs, toast, etc) and absolutely loved it. It was delicious, quite a large portion size (you will have leftovers), and reasonably priced (12 before tax & tip). They only accept cash but do have an ATM inside for convenience.

Had breakfast here many times. They have a few different choices for coffee cakes each time and they are all great. Blueberry coffee cakes is probably my favorite. We've also tried their veggie omlet, french toast, and pancakes, all were very good. Our servers have always been friendly and efficient.

Mickies is a local institution. It's a classic diner with traditional breakfast and lunch dishes. I always order the cheddar melt with fries. I can't get past it. The patty is always juicy and correctly cooked. They use good rye bread with a strong flavor. The onions are nicely grilled. It's always a winner. And here's the kicker: It's not that expensive. The only catch is they don't take credit cards or ATM cards. You have to bring cash. If you don't you'll have to get cash out of one of those standalone ATM boxes which charge you a big fee. So bring cash.

Well- my family loved the cinnamon rolls so much I didn't even get to try one. So....I'll definitely be back! I called so many places looking for icing vs cream cheese frosting (picky dad ) and I FOUND IT HERE! Fresh cinnamon icing on fresh cinnamon rolls. I could tell they were delicious just by looking at them! Yum my dad use to frequent here often and the food is delicious too! Prices are amazing and the staff could not be better!! Parking is street parking only and it's cash only also. They do have a ATM available for use inside (1 fee)

This place was amazing! First impression -- we were greeted outside the door and told how long we had to wait. Admittedly we had a big group (12 people) and came at the most popular Sunday time (10 am), so we waited for a good 45 mins, but the staff was very good and constantly kept us updated. Normal wait for smaller groups was 5-15 mins. Once we got seated, the staff was efficient in collecting orders and bringing the food out. The prices were amazing and the portions were humongous. Definitely coming back again! Tip: this place only takes cash, so make sure you have that handy when you come.

Best breakfast in town, all home cooked and delicious! Impressed, they greeted everyone that walked in and seated quickly. Price was awesome too. The staff was constantly hustling and super friendly. Will definitely be back and recommend. Thanks fir a spectacular experience.
