A favourite for cyclists (and us), serving up locally roasted coffee from Ritual Coffee Roasters of Cheltenham, tasty cakes, freshly made sandwiches and affordable breakfast baps inside the historic Beckford Stores building dating back to the 1800s.

With a meticulously kept Victorian courtyard garden complete with antiques on display it’s the ideal sun-trap for those summer rides and has plenty of seating for larger cycling groups.

Inside you’ll find a great range of cakes and tray-bakes including their popular cherry & custard Danish, Biscoff rocky road and moist apple cake. For those looking for something savoury there’s a tasty selection of freshly prepared sandwiches (GF available) including breakfast baps, brie & cranberry or tuna melt.

Note: For those who love their antiques you’ll find an awesome selection out back in their Victorian garden including vintage, curios garden ornaments and reclamation – be sure to bring your bike trailer!
