Doug's Soul Food Cafe

Amazing!!! That's all I have to say. We had another small crew together for this dinner, but it didn't matter. Everything was great!

When you walk into Doug's Soul Food Cafe, you aren't quite sure what to expect. We went to this place on a referral of a crew member...so we figured it was good...but you never know. We weren't disappointed. The Cafe is located in a strip mall about a mile off Fish Hatchery Rd. When you walk in you are greeted by an extremely friendly server and sit down dinner style. We sat at a table, but you can also site at the counter just like you could at the old style dinners and grease pits back in the day.

Although we knew we were in Madison because it was exceptionally cold, you would have thought we were transported to the South and were in someone's kitchen at home when the food came. I ordered the southern fried chicken which comes with two sides (mine were candied sweet potatoes and mac n cheese) and a side of bread (your choice). I took the corn bread. I also had to order a side order of hush puppies as I couldn't pass them up. Plus they were only 50cents for an order! The food was exactly what you would expect from a southern kitchen. It was great, the chicken was juicy, the food was plentiful and quickly delivered.

If you're looking for a place to have a relaxed and very casual meal which is guaranteed to be good, this is a great place. They also have take out available which they will make while you wait if needed.
