The Cafe At Rouler

Bike shop + coffee and food? Life is complete! We heard about this shop from one of their mechanics while in a group ride and had to check it out. The menu is impressive with a variety of coffee drinks and food items. We ordered the portobello wrap. The food is cooked when you order! This ain't no refrigerated vegan wrap made a few days ago! The shop filled with the smell of balsamic vinegar as he cooked! Come check this place out to eat and chat with the employees about bikes! Bring your bike if it needs some TLC too!

This is a perfect little coffee shop with good varied beverage options and calm, relaxed atmosphere. I haven't gone wrong yet coming in for a salad or sandwich. The staff is extremely friendly and the whole shop is brightly lit with huge windows. Perfect for getting some work done or meeting a friend to chat.

Whether you're going for the cafe' or the bike shop, you will not be disappointed. The food and drink is always top-notch. I love their sandwiches and hip beverage selections. On my last visit, i enjoyed their pita, stuffed with grilled tofu and veggies; so fresh, that you could taste the nuances of all the individual ingredients(see pic). The pastries and coffees are not to be overlooked, either. The ambience/ vibe is awesome, too. On the bike-shop-side, they have wondefully-serviced several of my whips, including a BMC road bike and Raleigh cross bike. My favorite part of their service...they will pick-up & return your bike, saving you time and money, by not having to transport it to the shop.. Their retail section is small, but respectable; i always pick-up some hydration/nutrition.

You will not find a more professional shop and genuine cafe in the Nola area. Unique to its formed cycling roots and rich with local culture mystique... Wes & Zac are gentlemen with attention to detail like no other. I am always taken back by the quality of food, service, and camaraderie I experience on every visit. The Rouler brand itself is reputable and honorable against all the majors in cycling. A must stop for any visiting cyclist and/or just admirers of good coffee and quaint cuisine.

Really chilled vibe on a quiet street corner, which makes sitting outside doable. Very friendly staff. Best coffee I've had in the USA. Nice breakfasts too. Their granola has a hint of ginger, which is a lovely surprise. They also mend bicycles and watch bicycle races on TV and seem genuinely interested in it themselves, so it's not just a Hipster badge.

It's 5:36 on a Wednesday evening. We are from out of town but bike NOLA for fun and to get around when we visit. We walk down from our room and my wife's tire is flat. Grrrr.... I look up this place being the closest bike shop, but a 10 minute walk. I call and Wes answered and he was phenomenal!!!...ABSOLUTELY phenomenal. I told him we could be there asap! Knowing they were about to close he was so encouraging to bring it in. It's not what people say it's how they say it. Above and beyond what we expected. Fixed the flat and we were on our way before they closed. Thank you again Wes!
