Breakfast On The Go

video

In August of 2016, chef Laurel Burleson launched the Ugly Apple Food Cart. She has been cooking in professional kitchens since high school and has a degree in hospitality management. After cooking for several years around Chicago and Madison, she saw how much was going to waste of this fantastic Midwestern produce. She envisioned owning a cafe that focused on delicious local produce.

Hence, the Ugly Apple was born.

Like the story of the Ugly Duckling, the Ugly Apple might not be bought at market but can still make a beautiful fritter. We lifted off in November of 2016 and love serving the community of Madison, Wisconsin with the cart and with “Breakfast All Day” catering! Give us a call to discuss your upcoming event!

Drinks

We are excited to announce local roasters True Coffee have developed the Ugly Apple Coffee Blend! It is a mix of Ethiopian and New World coffees that is fruity and bright. A great way to start your day!
12oz. for $2 and 16oz. for $2.50
We also feature loose leaf teas: an Earl Gray, Ginger Green and an herbal blend called Evening in Missoula that will knock your socks off!
Or grab some Orange Juice or Milk!

Eats

Biscuit Eggs & Cheddar Sandwich $6
Add Bacon, Ham, or Sausage for $1.50
Steel Cut Oatmeal $4.50
with Dried Fruit and Brown Sugar
Add Apple Sauce $1.25
Market Frittata $5.25
Biscuits and Gravy $5
The meat comes from Sugar River Farm in Belleville, WI. The eggs/veggies come from local farms wherever possible and I make as much as I can from scratch!

Treats

Not every breakfast is savory!
Try some Mini Apple Fritters, they come in a peck (6 pc) for $3 or Bushel (10 pc) for $4.
Seasonal muffins $2.50
Changes weekly, flavors include Strawberry Streusel, Cranberry Oat, Carrot, Lemon Ginger, and Veggie.
French Toast and donuts and more are potential options for specials so check out our Facebook or Instagram page to see what’s baking this week!

Our Mantra/Motto/Theme is to serve a fast and fresh breakfast all day! Breakfast for dinner is fun for the whole family or hip, fresh way to celebrate a special event! I work with local farmers, minimize waste by using their overstock produce, and help Madison’s less fortunate get fed.
