CycleChatters' Cafe Recommendation Thread

Anne's Pantry, Moelfe, Anglesey.
A bit off the beat and track but lovely home made cakes and scones and a dozen types of tea. I found this 1946 photo, they must have served a few cuppas over the years

The cafe at Beeston Marina in Notts is very popular with cyclists, hosted by the owner Tony you can see why. Bacon or sausage cobs with a huge mug of tea seems to be a favourite, enjoyed sitting next to the River Trent.

Eden Cafe/Bistro 4 Orrell Lane Burscough. Currently open from 10.00am Thursday to Sunday in and hoping to be 7 days/week when "all this is over!"

Used to be called Infusion, or similar, but has changed dramatically. Completely refurbished last year. Great staff, excellent food and the social distancing measures are spot on.

I hadn't been for 4/5 years and was very impressed.

Take a lock or sit outside, there is no secure cycle parking.

Whilst riding the South Downs way on Friday we stopped here http://dinebytheriver.co.uk/find-us/ which is basically the halfway point, lovely riverside location Riverside Tea Rooms Amberley. Great service and a really nice bunch of people.

The National Trust have Nostell Priory at Wakefield, stopped off there today, cycle friendly, theres a rack to lock your bike to, decent coffee & a cracking flapjack

There was a discount for arriving by bike, according to a couple of members of Wakefield Triathlon Club
Not sure about that though??

If you are riding to Scarborough or Bridlington try the Seaways cafe at Fridaythorpe.
A166. It's a motorcycle haunt really but they cater for us and the parked bikes are always good to look around if you like bikes with engines in them too.

Yes, always seems busy whenever I've had the requirement to drive past it

Oh dear!!!!
Someone had told me about this closure

This was always a nice little stop, if with a fraught approach along the A59, if you came from the east
(for a lot of years, it was a 3-lane road, with the 'suicide lane' in the centre)


We were last in there, in January '19

Delayed anyway, as I understand it's a fairly new shop/cafe

No mention of a discount on website, other than the governments eat out to help out scheme.

It's understandable as the stocking of a new cafe will be a nightmare to get right at the minute, as not many will know they're open, so will probably end up loosing money due to wastage from sell by dates etc.

Pre-Covid days, I assume?
