At Kamu Coffee Bar and Bicycle Shop In Breda you can, of course, go for coffee (from White Label Coffee) and cycling equipment, but also cake or lunch. You can also do your own work in the freely accessible workshop.
The best of bike cafés, cycling cafés and more places for cyclists in the Netherlands
For those who have lost track: the best bike mechanics and bike cafes in the Netherlands with a little something extra: trendy bikes and matching bike shops + walk-in living rooms with a handy mechanic on the couch, in-house bicycle repair shops, a coffee counter, a tasty sandwich and occasionally a cold beer. A brilliant idea, a bicycle cafe, that's what it is.
Bike cafés, cycling cafés, and more bike-related items listed. From Amsterdam to Schoonhoven, and we're also going to London and Berlin and more.
One of the first coffee + bicycle concepts in the Netherlands, that is Lola Bikes & Coffee in The Hague. Good concept, very nice execution. You will find Lola at Noordeinde. And not only the coffee is good, but the love for cycling is genuine, which makes Lola's so friendly and not the next hip(star) cafe, although it is nice to sit there.
Just as it should be: that is Cycling café Cyklist. There is no lack of coziness - it can't be otherwise when you put people with the same hobbies together. In the morning they gather for coffee and in the afternoon for drinks. Even if you are not really into the cycling scene, it is still a nice place to join. In the summer you can sit with your nose in the sun on the spacious terrace and on colder days nice and cozy inside. Wooden beams, round tables, racing bikes everywhere and a real collection of cycling clothing. Worn by the real top athletes. Tip: you can also rent bikes here by the way, that will definitely come in handy if you are going to hop around Eindhoven for 24 hours.
Giraffe may be a household name in Rotterdam. At Giraffe on the Hoogstraat they do things a little differently. In this nice building you can get coffee, clothing, bikeware and upgrade your coffee knowledge in the so-called Academy.
The mix of these (all fun) activities quickly turns into a pleasant mess and there is always activity. The shop is open seven days a week - so you won't miss anything. From the Hoogstraat you can walk to all kinds of other nice streets in no time. Perfect place to start your day. At Giraffe the bean is spicy enough, so you can enjoy it all day long.
At COPPI Coffee in Rotterdam you can drink coffee and eat something while the bicycle repairman looks at your bike. In the store you will find all kinds of bicycle products and COPPI regularly organizes all kinds of activities, for example the COPPI Ride. That's about 50-80 km cycling, cruising speed 28-30 km/h. It's one social laughs, so basically you take care of each other. Participating is fun, helmet is required.
(The bicycle repair shop is available on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays and Sundays).
You have to go for a coffee stop in Valkenburg Fixed Fear Coffee are. Ex-cyclist Brian started this coffee-and-all-things-for-your-bike spot here, at the foot of the Cauberg. They also give lectures there, cycle rides are organized and you can use the workshop (as long as you tidy up everything behind you). You also have all kinds of cycling clothing and accessories here.
Valkenburg was such a success that there is now also a Fixed Gear Coffee in the center of Maastricht.
Rapha bicycle cafes can be found all over the world, and fortunately also in Amsterdam's Nine Streets. The ideal escape from the shopping crowds for the cycling enthusiasts who want to check out the Rapha range or just have a cup of coffee and a bite to eat and watch a race on the big screen.
Rapha Amsterdam also organizes all kinds of events, such as lectures and workshops and weekly clubhouse rides
At Crossroads on the Daalseweg Nijmegen East you can have lunch and drink coffee between the bikes. But also: stock up on cycling clothes for your next trip on the two-wheeler, have your bike professionally repaired or meet fellow enthusiasts. Something different from your cup of coffee at a standard coffee shop on the corner.
“Where two or more roads meet”, that's the motto of CrossRoads. Ever been to a place where you can look for cycling clothing from Fit Normal, MAAPen Biehler can peek while sipping a latte? Or that one dream bike of Cannondaleen Cervelo in the store while you dream away with a piece of fresh apple pie in your mouth? Best of both worlds! At least if you ask founders Yannick and Romy. Together they share a lifelong passion for cycling, which they have bundled into a phenomenal cycling café.
In Chicago is by far the most beautiful, namely Heritage Bicycles.
Copenhagen is the cycling city par excellence and yet you will only find one cycling café. But one with its heart in the right place: at Baisikeli – Swahili for bicycle – bicycle rental is dirt cheap while the initiators quietly work on new and used bicycles, many of which are sent to Africa, where they baisikelis desperately need. The cozy café serves coffee from African coffee beans and very tasty lunch dishes.
London turns out to be the bicycle cafe chapter of the world (be careful!). So you have the immensely popular one Look Mum No Hands on Old Street, where they can also serve good beer and coffee and cake. Or cycle on to Rapha CC, in the middle of Soho. A slick business with its own clothing line, a loyal following and branches in London, Osaka and San Francisco.
Berlin is, as always, at the forefront when it comes to hip hang-outs. There it is Keirin Cycle Culture Cafe An undiminished popular spot for years and the place for retro frames, sushi and bicycle exhibitions. You can find good coffee and cycle hipsters at Standert in Mitte. It seems (and is?) a childhood dream: tinkering and having coffee for a living. Naturally, expect a host of hipsters who take not themselves, but their bicycles and certainly their coffee, very seriously.
