Brigstow Bike Café

23/06/2026

🚨 The future of Brigstow Bike Café depends on the next few weeks.

This is probably the most important post we've ever made.

Since opening, we've had fantastic feedback about our coffee, food, atmosphere and staff. Most people who visit us come back, which tells us we're doing something right.

The problem is that not enough people are discovering us in the first place.

Despite months of hard work, footfall remains far lower than we need to make the café sustainable. If that doesn't change, we'll need to make some difficult decisions about the future of the café at the end of July.

We're not asking for charity.

We're asking you to give us a try.

If you've been meaning to visit but haven't got around to it yet, now is the time.

To make that first visit as easy as possible, we're offering any standard coffee, tea, iced coffee, iced tea or milkshake for just £1 when you visit.

If you're already one of our regulars, this offer is for you too. You've helped keep us going so far, and we're incredibly grateful for your support.

We're proud of what we've built here and we'd love the chance to show more people what Brigstow Bike Café is all about before we make any decisions about its future.

Bacon butty update!

Our sourdough bacon sandwiches have been seriously popular — but we’ve also learned that sourdough, while brilliant on a plate, isn’t exactly built for life in a takeaway bag.

So, for those grabbing breakfast on the go, we’ve added bacon rolls to the menu.

Plenty of properly cooked bacon, packed into a soft roll, easier to eat, easier to carry, and just as satisfying.
£4 gets you a seriously solid bacon roll, whether you’re sitting in or heading out.

Perfect for commuters, riders, dog walkers, or anyone who wants proper breakfast without putting you into a food coma.

Introducing our new House Brewed Sparkling Iced Teas.

Freshly brewed English Breakfast tea, lightly sweetened in-house, served over ice with sparkling mineral water and bold flavour.

Now pouring:

Raspberry

Fresh, fruity, and seriously refreshing.

Rhubarb

Sharp, crisp, and a little more adventurous.

Hibiscus

Bold, vibrant, and beautifully different.

Proper iced tea. Proper flavour. No bottled shortcuts.

And this is just the beginning — Peach is already on its way.

What flavour would you like to see next?

🌱 Vegans of the world, unite! 🌱

This may well be our boldest flavoured toastie yet.

Introducing our new Mediterranean Chickpea Toastie:

House chickpea smash, our roasted red pepper, olive, caper & sun-dried tomato tapenade, extra sun-dried tomato for deep umami richness, and sweet red onion chutney, all pressed into sourdough and served with our thyme-infused pepperonata.

Rich, savoury, sweet, tangy, and absolutely packed with Mediterranean-inspired flavour — no compromise and no disappointing fake cheese.

I’m a dedicated carnivore, but I do love chickpeas and Mediterranean flavours… I could happily eat this any day of the week.

This is a vegan toastie designed to stand proudly on its own merits.

Proper food. Proper coffee.
