M-N-M’s Coffeehouse

I feel compelled to write an updated review about MNM’s. My opinion has changed since my original review.
I’ve been to MNM’s now a handful of times, and all experiences have been lackluster. I’ve reached for salt/​pepper during my last few visits because my breakfasts have been incredibly bland. Most recently, my «grilled veggie» breakfast sandwich was so dry that it was almost inedible. The sandwich was on dry toast and included a dried/​fried egg, one slice of tomato, one slice of provolone cheese barely melted, and four spinach leaves. No sauce. In my opinion, this was more or less toast with some unexciting things — not a sandwich.
The service also has not been very good during my past few visits. The staff people, who all seem to be college-​age girls (I sound so old! I’m only 30) are not friendly and not welcoming. I receive the same negative/​angry vibe from the girl ordering behind the counter to the girl bringing food out to my table.
I don’t think I’ll visit MNM’s for a while. I’ve visited a handful of times over the course of a few months, and those visits have been disappointing.

Always great food and service. Excellent coffee and sandwiches.

A nice and cozy local stop in Waunakee! In a town filled with fast food chains, MNM’s is a breath of fresh air. I don’t know what the building used to be, but MNM’s has done a great job creating a warm rustic/​industrial flair inside the coffee shop.
The quiche at MNM’s is divine. I’ve never eaten a quiche with such light and fluffy eggs. The crust was also prepared and cooked perfectly. MNM’s now is no doubt my one and only stop for quiche.
The scones (I tried the blueberry lemon) are quite tasty. The array of coffee blends available was very nice. I also liked the warm mugs that the cashier provided us for our coffee. :-)
My husband ate the pancake special in which the pancakes were the hero — as they should be – but with lackluster eggs and bacon. The bacon was very thin, and the scrambled eggs were old. My hunch is that they were scrambled and likely just sat for a while before being added to his plate. Thus, my reasons for four stars.
I’ll definitely go back and try MNM’s again.

Awesome! Love the seasonal latte flavors and everything we’ve had to eat there was very good. It’s not fancy but the coffee is outstanding, staff is very friendly and the inside is very comfortable.

This is the cute coffee shop a cute town like Waunakee needs! It’s not in the adorable, but mostly vacant downtown, but in a strip mall past the round-​about, but don’t let the outside fool you.
The atmosphere is cozy, lots of ladies of different ages chatting or working, when I was there. There is even an enclosed play room for kids to keep nose down.
Coffee is from Collectivo (everyone had their own feelings on this — I am underwhelmed), but the quiche was tasty, and there is a lot of seating, without feeling crowded.
Best place to hang out in Waunakee.

Surprisingly charming. From the outside, this place does not look very inviting. The parking lot could be a little bigger.
However, when you step inside, it is warm and cozy. There are several types of seating options. A faux fireplace, a counter, a reading nook and family style seating.
The service was wonderful. It was my first time there and I had LOTS of questions. I ended up trying the house specialty Chelsey sandwich. For $ 7.50, I got a bowl of soup and half a sandwich. The «half» was easily a WHOLE. The sandwich was delicious. Hot, fresh and flavorful. I am not 100% sure what was in it. Chicken? Cheese? Spinach? Delicious goodness? Yes and yes and yes and yes.
I definitely plan to return.

I had the breakfast burrito and it was very good. My girls had muffins — we all liked the lemon poppy seed better than the chocolate chip. Nice selection of brewed coffees and the inside is really cute. It’s a lot bigger inside than it looks outside.

Friendly people, great coffee and relaxing atmosphere. For food they have a tasty looking menu-I’ve had a blueberry muffin so far and it was yummy! I also like the music they play:) I would recommend swinging by if your in town!!:)

This coffee shop was perfect! I love that there’s an assortment of coffees to choose from, and the food was also great. The atmosphere was welcoming — I love sitting next to a cozy fireplace! I’ll absolutely be back.

Great atmosphere, coffee and a fun staff make M-​N-​Ms my new favorite coffee shop! Many flavors and types of coffee to chose from.
Updated: 27 Dec — I tried the Black and Tan blend this morning. Yum. Smooth, bold goodness. Who’d a thought?

Love coming! Great breakfast options! Coffee is always hot and good! The kids love coming for the play area and IceCream!

Been here a couple times. Sometimes the people behind the counter are nice, and sometimes it takes them an eternity to even say hi. I stood at the counter for nearly 5 minutes before anyone acknowledged me. And no, they weren’t swamped.
I had the tuna sandwich. Nothing special. It’s over priced and you can make it at home.
Their breakfast sandwich on a croissant was really good though. And I like their blended coffees. That’s why they get 3 stars instead of 2.

Favorite local coffee shop. Have tried nearly everything (coffee, tea, smoothies & food) on the menu and have enjoyed it all. Comfortable setting, friendly staff, well priced, high quality. Daughters enjoy the smoothies, food & ice cream as well. Wifi. Couches & soft chairs around fireplace settings. Back room for meetings or small gatherings. Never feel rushed to leave on the days I need to work out of the office.

My husband and I stopped by today for lunch. He had the Chelsey Special (grilled chicken, bacon, tomato, spinach, provolone cheese, ranch dressing on grilled sourdough bread). I had the Sun Dried Tomato Turkey Wrap (sliced turkey lunch meat, provolone cheese, hummus, tomato, spinach in an herb wrap). Really delicious and fresh! I also got an iced latte that had bold, smooth espresso.
The new location is nice and spacious, with a relaxing, casual atmosphere. There is plenty of seating – about 7 or 8 tables that eachseat 2 – 7 people, a few couches near a gas fireplace, two counters with stool seats, and two enclosed rooms with tables for meeting or quiet time.
Overall, I would highly recommend M-N-M’s Coffee House as a wonderful local place to relax and have some delicious food and coffee.

Best small town coffee shop in the area. Family owned and friendly. Oh, the coffee and breakfast is great too!

Cutest place to hang out and read, work, or chat. Love the rustic tables and chairs! Yummy coffee drinks, too!

Great local place & their food that’s homemade is quite good. They just seem to try a bit harder than the chain places and their coffee is just as good if not better.

I dropped by the opening of M-N-M’s new location and came away impressed. They converted what was an old water softener manufacturing plant into a cozy space for finishing a work project or catching up with friends over coffee.
Things I like:
* There are four or five varieties of Colectivo coffee to chose from, always served hot and fresh. Bags of whole beans are available as well for the DIY crowd.
* Free refills
* Counter staff are super friendly, whether you are a regular or infrequent patron.
* The fireplace, with a sofa and comfy chair strategically placed nearby.
* The tables are not densely packed, allowing you to have a conversation with your tablemate and not the neighboring tables.
* Chocolate Shoppe ice cream
* Free, fast wi-​fi (but you’ll need to ask for the password)
Things I don’t:
* The baked goods are lackluster. The scones are far too soft — no exterior crust to provide contrast. (Note to self: Try to foster a strategic partnership with Batch or 4&20 or Bloom to import their baked goods into Waunakee.)
* Their hours change seasonally, leading to an occasional unfruitful ice cream or caffeine run.
The customer loyalty program is through Belly — twenty visits gets you a free coffee.
M-​N-​Ms also has a light breakfast and lunch menu, but those items did not factor into my rating.
Kudos to M-​N-​Ms for converting the old Hellenbrand Water storefront into a great gathering spot for the community.
