We’ve featured RJ Julia Booksellers before — this beloved Madison institution is heaven for bibliophiles. It’s a two-story bookstore that is great whether you’re looking to browse or know exactly what you want. But did you know there’s a tasty cafe tucked right behind the bookstore? RJ Cafe and Bistro is a little hidden eatery that’s got amazing coffee, sandwiches, salads, and cupcakes.
This is quite literally a hidden gem: from the road, all you can see is RJ Julia Booksellers! You’d have no idea of the tasty eats obscured right behind it.

RJ Cafe and Bistro is a great spot for a quick bite. There are some indoor dining tables and they also have a lovely dog-friendly patio area. The patio is shaded, so it’s great for sunny days.

There’s quite the selection of sandwiches! You can’t go wrong with one of their delicious grilled cheeses, but there’s also a variety of paninis.

Flatbreads are RJ’s take on a pizza and they are absolutely delectable. This pear, bacon, blue flatbread is drool-worthy.

You can also get salads, and, if you choose, top them off with a scoop or two of tuna salad, curry chicken, or egg salad.

All the food here is fresh and there are plenty of healthy options from which to choose. The space is a little small, but you won’t be disappointed with the meals. There are plenty of vegetarian options for those who don’t eat meat.

They’ve got tons of coffees, teas, and sodas on tap, but there’s also an option to bring your own wine!
