One of my all time favorite spots in Ottawa. Amazing collection of classic bikes + excellent cafe serving a perfect espresso. Prefect combination. I brought my 1986 Panasonic road bike up from Maryland up to Ottawa to get a full restoration. Armand did an amazing job. He clearly takes tremendous pride in his work and has a passion for classic retro bikes is reflected in his work. The bike looks better now than it’s looked in 30+ years. Thanks Armand and Alex for the outstanding service...

Pretty neat place! I went there with no appointment looking for an Allen screw to replace the one on my seat post tightener. It was an emergency and they got me what I needed with zero fees. These small gestures makes me a long time customer. Will definitely go back The place is very unique, serving some speciality coffees and snacks in the front, and bike shop in the back.

Absolutely love this place. I've had two separate bikes serviced here and they did a fantastic job. The bike mechanics are knowledgeable and friendly, and tell you how it is, what you need, what parts you should consider replacing, but never trying to force it on you. I also really love the interior decor. The places has a cute hipster cafe that also serves beers, and I could even see myself coming here to study or casually chill.

Fantastic place for service. They are a small but knowledgeable shop. They cater to all bikes but specialize in beautiful retro mid-80s bikes. This is my go-to place for small parts and for service when I can't do it myself. Their staff is very polite and courteous. If you need to wait, you can also order a coffee and chill.

The place to go for anything bike related. They are very knowledgeable and their customer service is amazing. Got my bike tuned up by Alex and it rides like new. He also took the time to make sure my seat is at a good height for me. They also have a full cafe with food. Matcha latte was delicious. In the summer they have a really chill outdoor patio.
