Dani DevesaMarch 4, 2015Nice food! Lovely breakfasts! And a good place to go with your laptop if you have some work to do. They turn the wifi off at busy times but you always can do tethering and there are plenty of outlets.
Tom CoatesAugust 16, 2017Extraordinarily nice coffee shop and bike shop combined with space to get a little work done and some very pleasant food and drinks
CaterinaMarch 31, 2014Get the pie! Get the pie! The pie is worth your money, leave the side salad which is trying to hard and enjoy a really well made flat white. Only one warning: very rude service ahead.
Danielle JohnsonMarch 14, 2015Bike shop and coffee shop! Fantastic breakfast, loved the eggs, salmon and avocado. Try the mixed berry smoothie for a morning wake me up :)
Sean Olson-RoyAugust 13, 2015Fun, quirky, local hang out where you can have your bike repaired while having a pasty. Enjoy the selection of beer and relax at the picnic tables outside.
Very nice food and excellent coffee. Lovely little courtyard for lunch on a sunny day.
Sophie BakalarNovember 30, 2014Combination bike repair shop/coffeehouse. Free wifi and great coffee. Laptop use is restricted to sofas/countertop but there are tons of outlets.
- ManuelMay 31, 2019great breakfast options, outstanding friendly staff and a very cool cycling atmosphere. 🚴🏻♂️🚴🏻♀️
rosie (siman) yakobAugust 6, 2014A coffee shop with plenty of plugs and delicious coffee! Wifi is free but can occasionally be a little slow. Bike locks available for rent, and many repairs are available on site. Great outdoor space!
Liam HolohanOctober 2, 2014Must visit for any self respecting cyclist. They serve excellent coffee (flat white for me). Have a good selection of cakes and lots of different breakfast and lunch options. Real hipster joint.
Helen HudsonAugust 19, 2018Hidden gem. Cafe, main road location, outside seating in an off-street courtyard. Get your bike seen to by the onsite tech. Fantastic place. Must visit.
New York HabitatApril 2, 2014This unique space is part café & part bike shop! This is a great shop to hang out with friends and enjoy your iced latte as you're watching a cycling race on TV.
Andrew GriffinDecember 23, 2018One of our favorite coffee places for our London trip. Great service, breakfast, and excellent espresso.
Patrick SchneiderAugust 11, 2016Lovely place for breakfast, very special flair due to the integrated bicycle workshop. Food is very good and so is the service
Perfect spot to chill out and have breakfast or lunch. Big cappuccino's & the banana bread is the best I ever tried!
Grab an espresso whilst getting your bike fixed by the friendly and expert mechanics.
Quality of flat whites are a bit inconsistent. But the guinness chocolate cake is heavenly - one of the best. Loads of space for seating and doing work or chatting with friends.
Edward MellettMay 17, 2016Pretty cool place with grumpy staff and intensely hipster patrons. Sit by the window and listen to people talk of 'diversity', 'social mobility' and tap away on their MacBooks.
One of the most hipster places in the area. Excellent espresso blends and great atmosphere. Pies are usually (but not always) pretty good, too.
Evening StandardMay 10, 2012If you're after something healthy, this trendy cafe-bar boasts an array of salads and specials that change daily depending on the season. If not, best opt for their now-famous Guinness cake. Read more
Their continued refusal to bring cutlery with your (very tasty) food is a perpetual mystery.- Lauren KeithFebruary 1, 2019Excellent chai latte. If you're here with a laptop, you get relegated to the bar seats, and you are not allowed to sit at a table. Couldn't see any plugs.
Angus EdmondFebruary 19, 2012Best coffee I have ever had in England, I was beginning to give up hope that it was possible to find great coffee hear ;) beautiful wee workshop and cafe, I can highly recommend it!
Tobias FriedrichNovember 2, 2018Good coffee and food, funny shirts and clothes related to cycling and good events, too!
Brad TSeptember 27, 2016Been wanting to try their brunch for a while and it def did not disappoint. Had one of the benedicts which was delicious.
Gé .March 21, 2015A mix of a bike shop and cafe. Cosy atmosphere, very friendly and cool selection of teas, coffes and honemade-healthy-looking food.
Mogzy LeeJuly 31, 2015Awesome cafe! Airy, bright and spacious. Get your bike serviced while you work and have an ace brekkie.
Ricardo YeowartFebruary 19, 2018Great coffee and good food. Cool people in there. Lots happening. A real community feel.- Reminds me of Mellow Johnny's in Austin but a little more rough around the edges. Friendly staff behind the counter and in the workshop. Beers in the evening while the TdF is on is a must.
- Liam HolohanOctober 2, 2014Great coffee and a must visit for cyclists. Good menu for breakfast and lunch and a decent range of cakes and pastries. Cool vibe.
Nick ChimmunchlamJuly 13, 2017What a venue! The place is amazing, staff are friendly and black americanos' are tasty!
One of my favourites in London. If you can get there early: the breakfast, coffee and people watching is worth it.
Lydia SasaroliMay 31, 2013Excellent fresh food, quick service and lovely outdoor area when the sun is out :) Also, for bikers it's a good place where you can fix your bike.
Julia KateJuly 9, 2016First almond milk coffee I have had in London! Decently priced too! Kudos for London getting healthy at last! 👌🏻
Erin SheaSeptember 29, 2019Great breakfast spot! The Eggs Benny was delicious and the staff was very kind. Cool laid back atmosphere.
Friendly staff, great coffee, had a slice of chocolate cake topped w. a blackberry sauce which was HEAVEN on a plate- Andrea LusardiJuly 8, 2015Great place! Good selections of teas, amazing food and you can also stay outside with 2 plug charger for your laptop:D
Stelios GiannopoulosOctober 10, 2016Coffee ☕️ without a doubt flat white! And pls try the focaccia with Parma ham
Kitsos MitsosMarch 4, 2014Great breakfast and brunch, big portions, fresh ingredients, friendly staff, cosy atmosphere. Is there anything else to ask?
Charlie GERARDFebruary 2, 2017Great coffee and awesome place if you need to get some work done. Lots of power sockets available.
Leven Wenqi LiOctober 9, 2014Lovely to have some cakes and nice coffee. Big place and outside space.
Janine CherrieApril 18, 2015Despite the whole no-laptops-on-tables-and-no-wifi-till-4pm thing, I love this place. Coffee's great and food's good 👌
Kate GomesMarch 19, 2015Liked it here a lot. Easygoing, nice simple food, good beer menu. But hard to get a table among all the laptops!
The food and coffee here's amazing! One if my favourite places. Really quirky with bikes hanging from the ceiling. Try the breakfasts nom!
Heather KnightNovember 17, 2013Great for coffee, cake (the lemon & rosemary cake was delish), and getting work done (free wifi and power).
DFRJuly 22, 2014All good. BUT the smokers outdoors really a nuisance. Recommend go smoke free...so for us that don't smoke feel respected
