My husband and I went to Barriques to do some work while visiting family. I was disappointed that they were out of yogurt but the wrap I ordered was delicious as was my mocha! However, I was a little annoyed that there were not more outlets to plug in our computers. Overall, I would come back.

Though my food was good, my companions was forgotten. After I brought it to the staffs attention they seemed to take their time to whip together the four ingredient salad. I would expect an establishment of this price to at least deliver the lost meal. Not this slow business day. My name was yelled and the sorry salad sat on... More

We stop here every time we pass through Madison. We choose to avoid the busy roads at rush hour by parking it downtown and enjoying coffee and food before we head back out. We travel between Wisconsin and Iowa often. On the way down it's Friday evening and we always stop here. They have a wine tasting if you want... More

I dream about coming back to Madison for the coffee at Bariques! Try their menu items too :) Wine at night, nice local feel, not big chain and fabulous coffee

I have no problem with the coffee. Usually very good. But, what is wrong with their staff. I go to either the Middleton shop or the Old Sauk Rd. shop and the staff at both places are unfriendly and taciturn. I know they don't make much but managment can still do things to make the staff customer friendly. I just... More

Barriques is one of the few coffee shops that I go out of the way to spend a morning, afternoon or evening connecting with friends, getting a quick bite, or spending hours working. It has been one of my top hangouts for nearly 8 years. The atmosphere is Barriques best asset. The two-story open loft concept allows for easy people-watching,... More

Love the atmosphere and fast wireless. Just wish the staff, especially the cooking crew, were more welcoming. They seem to be having a bad day or rushed whenever I go there. If they fix that, they at least a 4 from me.

I love Barriques, especially the new one on Park Street. A special thing I like to get is the French Sodas.

The drinks are great with a little extra, depending on what Barriques you're at. Love the market atmosphere in Fitchburg, the wine selection on Monroe, convenience on Park St, and downtown location/atmosphere of West Washington. Needless to say, this is my coffee stop of choice. The bakery is fresh daily and if you're there past 6pm, it's 1/2 priced. The... More

This is a review for the Barriques on Monroe Street. I havent been to the other ones, so I wouldn't know. Stay away from the one on Monroe Street. I got food poisoning from their greek salad. I puked right in their bathroom half way through the meal. The lady in charge gave a funny look when I told her... More
