You can also use Laravel helper which I'm using. Just create Helpers folder under App folder then add the following code:

namespace App\Helpers;
Use SettingModel;
class SiteHelper
{
    public static function settings()
    {
        if(null !== session('settings')){
          $settings = session('settings');
        }else{
          $settings = SettingModel::all();
          session(['settings' => $settings]);
        }
        return $settings;
    }
}

then add it on you config > app.php under alliases

'aliases' => [
....
'Site' => App\Helpers\SiteHelper::class,
]

1. To Use in Controller

use Site;
class SettingsController extends Controller
{
    public function index()
    {
        $settings = Site::settings();
        return $settings;
    }
}

2. To Use in View:

Site::settings()
