Top tier farmers market. For sure would recommend. Definitely get the spicy cheesy bread on the corner of state or an empanada on East Mifflin. It’s on Saturday morning. FYI some places are cash or Venmo only.
Go hangout and enjoy the lake at one of our favorite parks in Madison. Great spot to read. They also have a volleyball net and lots of room for spike ball if you have the setup.
Rent an e bike (they’re all over) and follow the signs for the bike loop around Lake Monona . It’s about 13 miles and not super hilly. Grab a sandwich/cider at Alimentari or ice cream at Monona Bait and Ice Cream Shop (cash only) along the way - it’s delish

Grab a pitcher and enjoy Lake Mendota! You might even see some of us racing some sailboats if you come in the morning.
Some of our fav places are Ancora, Merigolds, Coopers, Lucille’s, Red, Tavernyaka - you can’t go wrong wherever you choose.
