Bicicletta Coffee Con Velo - Uttlesford

I made a pit stop at this restaurant on my way to meet up with an old friend. The coffee was excellent and the staff were very friendly. I also tried a cheese toastie as a light lunch, and it was delicious and satisfying. The village was charming as well, and I would definitely come back to visit again.

A few years ago, this restaurant began as a bike cafe, but most cyclists have since stopped going because it is not very good and no longer caters to cyclists besides its name. The flat whites were enjoyable, but the food was very disappointing. The menu was limited and did not interest any of us in our cycling group. We regretted not going somewhere else.

I observed the chef for thirty minutes and noticed that everything he served had been cooked the day before and simply reheated for customers. The only items that were not pre-cooked were pre-packaged (pancakes, bread, brioche, etc). The only exception was the poached eggs. It was obvious as soon as the food was served. The coffee was good, but the pastries looked decent, although they were also stale. It's disappointing that they couldn't cook the bacon and sausages fresh on the same day they were served.

Popped in for Sunday brunch and wasn't disappointed . Nice atmosphere, food came promptly and was really good. I recommend the breakfast bun, it was really a treat, my wife had advacado on toast and said it was also lovely, all washed down with lovely smooth coffee. It was so good we returned for lunch!

Visited with my family today and couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable by two staff members who couldn’t keep their hands off each other behind the counter. Not normally bothered by public displays of affection however these two where unprofessionally hanging off each other. Can’t knock the food and drink, atmosphere great too! Just felt a bit awkward
