1 | As everyone in Madison knows, there are no doughnut chain stores around. No Krispy Kreme. No Dunkin Donuts. Although I know that the best doughnuts in town are from the Greenbush Bakery, sometimes it's just easier to go with the place down the street. \n\nThat basically sums up the People's Bakery.

3 | The doughnuts are good (and pretty cheap!), but I really love this place for a quick, cheap lunch. They make their falafel and gyros fresh, so be prepared to wait a few minutes for them to put 'em together. There's a small dining area, or you can take your food to go.

2 | I am pretty disappointed with this place. After it being described as the best gyro in town, I was let down. The gyro is good and it is only $4.50. However, best in town?
