Broque Madame
- “Could you try? Do you know...zee massage arts?”
- —Broque Madame, Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story
Broque Madame is a character in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story. She appears to be of the same species as Broque Monsieur. She runs an Enemy Attack Challenge House in Blubble Lake, which is the equivalent of the Cholesteroad inside Bowser, under the conditions of needing a massage to sooth her aching back. Bowser must keep his special attacks going for as long as possible without failing. If Bowser does well enough, Broque Madame rewards him with coins and equipment. Bowser's score is saved if he gets the high score. However, Broque Madame only saves the score for the minigame, so Bowser still must save at a Save Block for the game to be saved, as Broque Madame warns him.
If Mario and Luigi visit Broque Madame, she immediately regards them to be weak but politely asks them to return to talk with her again as she is lonely, and to also request a "burly" guy (Bowser) to come to her house for a massage. If they do return to talk with her, she tells them stories about the Shroob Invasion and the fact that someone (Bowser) kept some of them, a reference to the cold storage in Bowser's Castle. She also says that if they have a special one that they need to care for them, because she once had her own special person that gave her up for blocks. She also mentions Kuzzle, who used to come to the lake, but now no longer does so ever since Bowser took his Star Cure.

Trivia
- Like Broque Monsieur, her name appears to be a pun on a French sandwich dish, called "Croque Madame".
- In the Italian version Broque Monsieur has a French accent, while Broque Madame hasn't.
- There is a recurring mistake in Broque Madame's speech. She often says the words "cherí" and "cherís", but she should be saying "chéri" and "chéris". The accent is in the wrong place. It's the French word for "dear".
