If you want to really know what’s going

These shops have more than great coffee If you really want to know what’s going on in a city, stop in, get caffeinated, and then head out on a ride

Coffee and cycling share a long love affair. Java is part of the sport’s culture. Across Canada, there are cafés that build on this crank-arms-and-caffeine connection. But they do more than hang a few bikes on their walls (although many do just that). Some are part museum – showcasing vintage machines and other memorabilia. Others sell cycling gear and offer repairs while you enjoy a cortado. Some have been around for decades, others are just a few years old. All of these places are hubs that foster the passion of the riders in their communities. So, grab a coffee – espresso, cappuccino, latte, drip, americano, whatever you like – and take a tour of the best cycling cafés in the country.
