Chuck Lane, owner of Lane's Bakery, a popular gathering spot for the over-60 crowd, shows off some of his creations from the height of last season's Super Bowl frenzy. This is a convenient spot by the Capitol Square for breakfast and lunch on weekdays. Take-out is another option for downtown workers. The dining room is attractively furnished, and service is cafeteria style. For anyone seriously pressed for time, there's a good selection of packaged to-go items to take back to your desk.
Lunch includes hot and cold sandwiches, salads, soups and a changing selection of hot entrees.
For something sweet after lunch you can have cookies, brownies and pies. Breakfast selections include eggs and grilled coffee cake. Anybody who has lived in Madison very long and has never tasted a Plaza Burger is deprived, by our standards. Second on the list of favorite sandwiches is the grilled tuna and cheese. Open for lunch and dinner seven days a week, the restaurant features a prime-rib sandwich on Monday, Mexican cuisine on Tuesday and pasta on Wednesday.
